It explains the meteoric rise of President Trump on his issue of immigration and why when President Trump came down the escalator in 2015, talked about immigration, he almost instantly rose to the top.

And then within six or nine months, he had knocked out just about every one of the other Republican leaders who were on the other side of his immigration issue.

Jeb Bush, number one.

It's not just loosely connected with violent populism.
matched
It goes right to the core of what's occurring in our country.
matched
And it explains the period of violent populism, why it's occurring now.
matched
and not 30 years before or 30 years
matched
the 90s, culture wars, we're sort of not wanting to see culture change.
