I watched Trump's victory speech last night and it seemed to me he talked about a lot of things. A lot of things that a lot of Republicans, and other Americans would agree with.
I mean when you talk about "actual policy". Okay, go back to Obama. Was "hope and change" actual policy? Was "yes we can" actual policy? That was what a lot of his campaign was based on. According to Clinton supporters, he was being followed by a bunch of "Obamabots" and even after the election too. Sloganeering is often how our elections are done.
