Carlos Curbelo: “We can actually help empower people so they can grow independent of the government and kind of blaze their own pathway.”

This is the Trump trap, right? Republicans need to check the box, 'appease Donald Trump,' and then put some of their more vulnerable members in peril.

He has to grow from his base, and he's doing nothing to achieve that.

One of the big problems especially on the right is that social media has sown a lot of distrust because the right feels under attack by big institutions. It has hurt our democracy. Why? Because it has diminished trust in society.

If you want to beat Donald Trump in a Republican primary, you're not going to do it by being a cheap imitation of Donald Trump.
