By John Friend — Regardless of one’s views of Donald J. Trump, who officially secured the GOP presidential nomination on May 26 by obtaining the 1,237 minimum delegates prior to the Republican convention later this summer, one thing is certain: He has shaken the political establishment to its very core. Since the populist businessman announced his presidential bid last June, he has been hysterically attacked and denounced by almost every sector of the mainstream political establishment and mass media. Celebrities and popular pundits have ludicrously compared Trump to Adolf Hitler. Feminists have attempted to portray him as a hateful misogynist.

Indeed, Trump’s candidacy and populist talking points are resonating with millions of Americans across the country, as demonstrated by the massive rallies his campaign continues to generate. Trump has created a movement that is much bigger than his candidacy, something this country has not seen in generations. What Trump has done to shake up American politics is obviously terrifying the political establishment, particularly the neoconservative faction that has largely dominated American foreign policy under the past two administrations.
