Is losing to the star of the reality show, is it really crazy to resort to the tactics of reality to beat him?
I do not mean the decision of Marco Rubio to fight fire with fire with Donald Trump and the return of insult. First of all, I thought that Rubio was completely suitable to give the school a taste of my own medicine. Evidence indicates that Rubio attacks, while tardy, were paid. Voters undressed with Trump are open to persuasion, and the tardy Delekciopas disproportionately broke for Rubio for great Tuesday In most races.
Indeed, once again most voters voted against Trump, not for him, and that’s where the tactic of reality appears.
Apart from “Top Chef” and “Naked I is afraid”, I’m not a huge fan of the reality show, but I watched my participation in “Survivor”, “The Bachelor” and even the personal propaganda series of Trump “The”, “The Student.” It seems to me that in many of these programs the game is played in the same way: groups create alliances. They are quiet and voluntary – but they are all transient.
At the end of the season, the winner is a guy or girl who was in the right alliance until the alliance met his needs. Fans can be cheerful or disappointed on the basis of who appears, but it is stupid to say that Tiffany has stolen a bachelor from Rhonda. This is just playing.
Welcome to huge leagues. Trump played this game all the time, and now, when he is ahead of us, he does not think that anyone should be able to change tactics to defeat him.
If it were a double race from the very beginning-as the democratic breed from Iowa-Trump would probably be behind, like Bernie Sanders. But Trump took advantage of the fact that the republican field was divided for so long. There is nothing wrong with that.
But there is nothing wrong with trying to stop Trump. Alliances are part of the game. The delegate system allows it. And that’s why Mitta Romney’s council in his powerful anti -trump speech on Thursday was completely critical. If you are against Trump and live in Ohio, vote for John Kasich. If you are against Trump in Florida, vote on Rubio. If you are against Trump in a state where Ted Cruz will prevail, vote for Cruz.
From March 15, the main winners receive all state delegates. The losers don’t even get knives from steaks. In the proportional Virginia, Rubio lost to Trump, but Trump got only one delegate than Rubio. If no one reaches the convention with most delegates, the convention chooses the nominee. It can be Trump. On the other hand, maybe not.
It may seem cheating, but it is not. The conventions have simply been commercials for so long that we are not used to the idea that you can matter. In addition, for the last 50 years, every candidate who could pass the Super Tuesday as a leader was permissible for most parties, and the pressure on the connector was robust. This time it’s different because Trump is different. His supporters – many of whom are not republicans, Trump likes to notice – he may not like it, but the man is simply unacceptable to many conservatives.
When you tell Trump’s supporters, they answer, throwing a word-salad on a dim organization called “establishment”, which works on thwarting the will of the majority. Talk Radio guests about the efforts of this Kabbal to “steal” the nomination from Trump.
For example, Romney’s speech was condemned by many as an outrageous effort to sway voters. A similar criticism was made when the magazine for which I work, the National Review, devoted a special problem against Trump.
“How do you dare to tell voters how to vote!” He cried countless commentators of the PRO-TRUMP cable messages, experts and radio hosts. This is a fascinating complaint from people who earn a living, offering their opinions about voting voter.
It’s also nonsense. If Trump’s opposition is now a definition of establishment, then about 66 percent of the main GOP voters are members of the establishment. “Silent majority” is not a majority and is certainly not tranquil. Unfortunately: “Volume for Trump!” It does not look so good on the house signs at rallies.
Trump can be stopped according to the rules. And if he is detained, and this makes you unhappy, do not hate players, I hate the game.
