Their task now is to sort Trump's incoherent proposals into cogent policy. The tough sledding is just starting.
Then how do you explain the democrats in the unions who switched over to Trump away from Hillary? Or the Latinos, Blacks, gays, women that voted Trump, and not Hillary? Hillary was damaged goods, and Trump represented unity for those who can see how the democrats and liberals divided everyone. We are all human and want the same things, peace, safety, security, jobs etc. Plus the Republican establishment was mainly against him with some voting Hillary.
Trump used to be a democrat, and believe it or not has true liberal beliefs of self determination. It's more common sense approach, but many are living in a false reality that the establishment media has been promoting because they fear losing their power to someone they don't control. The key is how to get the message across. I thought this was a good article.
