#1 Although the focus is different, the list of 7 items in Adam's model reads a lot like the Donk playbook.

#2 Same playbook but with a twist of hammering the media that so so many hate. Can't be racist as so many are white.

#3 Scott's blog has been a must-read on political persuasion during this election cycle.

#4 a massive number of people have lost their jobs due to globalization. The Republicans and Democrats have ignored the problem and written these folks off of the unemployment numbers.

But they are still there and they vote and they are pissed.

Trump speaks to them. Bernie speaks to them as well, to a lesser extent.

#5 I disagree with Adams on this. Voters are rational, very rational. It is a fact that folks vote against, very rarely for someone - that is rational if we vote against something that is not working or poisonous to our society. Thus, Trump woos the anti-illegal immigrant folks, the anti-Clintons and the anti-Obamas, anti-worthless Republican leadership, anti-beta male world. I want a war president and Trump is the best choice left standing.
