Considering Political Identity: Conservatives, Republicans, And Donald Trump

Donald J. Trump strode to the podium at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) as the iconic bass riff from “For the Love of Money” thumped un-ironically in the stuffed ballroom. He was a late addition to the list of CPAC speakers, and the surprise drew an overflow crowd, the largest in conference history. “Some people got to have it” was the last line the O’Jays’ Eddie Levert sang before the volume faded. “You’re hired,” someone screamed. Trump thundered that he was called to campaign because the country had become “a whipping post for the rest of the world.” The nation was a global “laughing stock.” His speech was full of standard stump Trumpisms. The world was “screwing” America. The nation’s leaders were too “weak” to negotiate with the chief offenders: Mexico, China, India, and the OPEC nations who would, he predicted, charge seven to nine dollars per gallon of gas “within a year or two.” “We have nobody that calls up OPEC and says,” Trump complained, “‘That price better get lower, and it better get lower fast.’” What the country needed was someone “well acquainted with winning,” a nonpolitician who “fairly but intelligently earned many billions of dollars,” an alpha dealmaker who knew all the key players, someone to “rebuild our country,” a leader to make the nation “great again.” The Washington Times praised Trump’s showmanship as well as his appeal to conservatives. Trump pressed “most of the buttons required for a candidate to satisfy the economic, national defense and social conservative strains in the GOP electoral coalition.”
