I agree with Glenn about the Democratic Party, the FDR coalition that governed the country has long since dissolved. The Democratic Party has become a Party of coastal elites pushing forth unpopular social policies. The Republicans are no better pushing their brand of unpopular social and economic policies. I cannot, however, explain away Trump, to vote for Trump is to give into frustration and abandon the American project in many fundamental ways. Trump is his allows characters like Alexander Spellane (Fisher Capital Group) to give a sales pitch before his rallies to sell overpriced silver and gold. I think this exemplifies I who Trump is, a true-blue American shyster.
