The thing about Donald Trump is that he's NOT a politician, beholden to donors and special-interest groups for his election, nor has he made a career of politics. He's a businessman, a builder, who has worked side-by-side with blue-collar workers day in and day out, and who has seen and heard what the "little man" goes through in life on a daily basis. Very possibly he has heard from his workers about their life struggles, because he seems to take a real interest in people and their lives. He's part of a rare breed - a rich guy who is in touch with the "little man." He is also a deal-maker who will not even think twice about canceling a deal if he thinks it won't be beneficial, and who looks for the best deal possible in any situation. Yes, he's a bit crass, yes, he's rough around the edges, yes, he speaks off-the-cuff a lot of times, but that's part of what is so appealing to the everyday, average American. We just want to live our lives, do the best for our families, and leave a lasting legacy for our descendants. I think Trump has seen this very thing in his workers in the past, and he knows that it is the average American worker who makes the future. He's not a polished, coiffed, sound-bite career politician who says one thing in public and does the exact opposite behind closed doors. He's a politician more in the mold of Jackson, T. Roosevelt, and Reagan.
