Fifth Ave. and the GOP &c.

“I have the most loyal people . . . where I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose any voters, okay? It’s like incredible.”

.. I nicknamed this phenomenon — the phenomenon of loyalty to Trump — “the Fifth Avenue Principle.”

.. “I can’t be doing so badly because I’m president and you’re not.”

.. And if Trump moves to the center, opposing conservative Republicans and making deals with Democrats, will his base follow him? I believe it will.
