A speaker argues Democrats oppose Trump not for his style but because he threatens their power by returning authority to ordinary people through deregulation and tax cuts. He compares Trump to Reagan as a president who restores limited government and popular empowerment.
What the Democrats hate about Donald Trump, it isn't that he's brash. It isn't. This is a guy that doesn't bow down to the establishment. I'm not going to like all of Donald Trump's policies. I'm not going to sit here and lie to you. I don't kiss anybody's booty. That's just the way that I roll. But I'm going to like a lot of them. But I love Donald Trump because I understand what he represents. He represents freedom. Carl, what do you mean by that? Of course he represents freedom. He represents freedom in this sense. When this man gets into office, he gives the power back to the people. What do you think deregulation is? What do you think cutting taxes is? And in the same way, basically, you have a president that's returning, in a sense, to its core mission, to his core mission, to the office's core mission. You— we saw the same with Ronald Reagan. We saw a president that wanted to return to his core mission and return to— return the country to the people.
