Is Donald Trump a Radical Centrist?

[Ronnie]

I think the label would apply better to someone like Jesse Ventura.  Donald Trump is too right wing to be called a "centrist".

No sir.  Trump is a right wing populist, like Pat Buchanan or radio host Michael Savage.  Which is to say, he does not adhere strictly to the conventional conservative doctrine of free trade and big business.  But he is very much a traditionalist and against wasteful government programs.  Unlike Buchanan, he is not a fierce opponent of the radical gay rights agenda.  Unfortunately, I might add.

If wanting equality is "radical", then deal me in.
