When somebody hands me a burger or hotdog with mustard on it, despite specifying no mustard, it takes the bravery of a thousand Trump's at military boarding school for me to smile and consume that thing.

Actually, this reminds me that Trump has somehow avoided coming off as snooty in most ways. He talks about steaks, not foie gras or some other stereotypical rich people food. He has a private jet and a trophy wife and a gauche aesthetic with gold fixtures and everything but none of his poo poo comes off as high-brow "more refined tastes," whereas John Kerry (speaking of condiments) couldn't shake that poo poo in 2004 and its association with his wealthy upbringing.

Because it's never really how true it is, it's about the messaging, which Trump has command over.

I wouldn't go that far. 90% of Republicans were going to rally around him eventually. He already fills in the blanks in his political thought with bog standard Paul Ryan speak. The only defections will be from the foreign policy hawks, the business wing, and strategists looking at the big picture of 2018 and beyond.

He was supposed to be embarrassed out of the race by the first debate. It didn't work. Now they're talking to him. This would have been unthinkable only a year ago, but it's getting more obvious all the time.

It's very easy to sell yourself to the GOP base when you talk like a fifth-grader and don't even try to explain abstract policy positions. Trump was very smart to realize (intentionally or not) that the GOP primary voters don't give a hoot about actual Republican policy, they just want all red meat, all the time, like 8 years of Fox News and Limbaugh under Obama have been giving them.

But they only needed that swift boat smear to last for the general election. Trump has consistently been a person with the tastes of a yokel who makes it rich but he was raised in wealth. But that working-class-guy-who-wins-the-lottery-and-puts-gold-on-everything aesthetic is exactly what's getting him his following.

He talks about his golf courses all the goddamn time, though. (Which is funny, considering how much poo poo Republicans have given Obama for golfing.)

When Obama does it, however, he's just being lazy.

The Kerry veteran smears were some sick underhanded poo poo but I'm talking about the rich kid stuff. Kerry was painted as a cultural elitist while Trump gets none of that and I think it's because they are genuinely those things. Kerry strikes me as the kind of guy who can name his favorite composers and go into detail about impressionism and expressionism and correct people who confuse the two. Trump strikes me as the sort of person who has Billy Ray Cyrus on stage because that is what his tastes are. I think Trump legitimately has no interest in high-brow stuff, which is surprising because my idea of people raised in wealth is that they get enculturated into "these are the things that people of your station like."

Yeah, the golf stuff is stereotypical rich guy crap but Tiger Woods' (former) popularity dulled some of that perceived elitism I think.

“Dale is from Provo. I met him just a few minutes ago. I want to tell you why I have hope. Dale introduced himself to me. And he didn’t tell me this, his father did. Dale has been fasting without anybody knowing it every Tuesday for the last three weeks for the right outcome in this election. This is the priesthood rising! Prepare for a time of miracles. The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is real and he is fierce and these are his rights. Get out on Tuesday and be a part of it. There’s no one on the sidelines.” – Glenn Beck

Again, it's not high-culture stuff. His fans imagine that they also would like to own hot-tubs and limousines and poo poo but those things aren't markers of "refined tastes" like a Rothko painting hanging in your house is. Trump has an MTV Cribs level of taste, which is (again) to say "the tastes of somebody who didn't have money suddenly having money."

How the gently caress can you not understand the difference?

If you're already an eligible green card holder, you could theoretically get citizenship before November, but it would be tight to finalize everything before then.
