Donna Brazile: We Have To Respect The Fact That Donald Trump Is Leading A "Movement," Like Reagan Or Obama
"But I have to say something because, George [Stephanopoulos], I'm old enough to say this.
I've seen two movements outside of the social justice movements in my
life on the political side.
"One was the Reagan movement. Reagan had a hold on his base. The country
at large, they saw him as someone who was willing to stand up for
American values, whatever that might have meant. Now I thought it was
reactionary.
"The other movement I saw was Barack Obama, hope and change. That galvanized the American people.
"I've never seen anything like this with Donald Trump. I mean, what doesn't kill you make you stronger? I mean, being convict -- I mean, being indicted, that's making
him stronger? Raising $10 million using an ugly mug shot to raise
money? This is a movement.
"And anyone who thinks that you can apply the old political rules to try
to defeat this candidate based on he's scary, he's ugly, whatever you
might want to call him, this is a movement. And we have to respect the
fact that it's a movement."
Hitler had a helluva movement too, hoo doggie. Should we talk to them Steve Schmidt?
