Jason Riley: Trump is on a Roll, But Shouldn't Get Overconfident

Agreed, unsurprisingly.

   Though I disagree with Riley about one thing: it's common for people to say that Trump was elected primarily for economic reasons. I, of course, voted for him (somewhat reluctantly) because of the non-economic (some people say "cultural," but that's not quite right) issues. Some of the headliners: gender ideology and transanity, illegal immigration, DEI, etc.

   Of course I may not be representative of the average Trump voter.

   One more thing: this seems like just the sort of situation Trump could screw up, e.g. with some stupid pronouncements or dopey tweets...

   But his staff may be helping to keep him out of such trouble this time.

   What's really amazing is that he's got so much support despite the titanic, unhinged propaganda effort conducted by the mainstream media and the rest of the big blue machine. It's hard to figure how popular he'd be in the absence of that massive brainwashing initiative.
