Conservati­ve take: Clintonian Triangulat­ion for Trump?

-

Back in the ’90s, the hot political strategy was “triangulat­ion,” in which President Bill Clinton “steered a course between conservati­ve Republican­s and liberal Democrats in Congress.” Now, argues Byron York at the Washington Examiner, Donald Trump has a chance to do the same — merely “by keeping his campaign promises,” which a Wall Street Journal poll suggests “the public is eager” for him to do. The respondent­s’ top priorities — keeping jobs here, reducing lobbyists’ power and funding infrastruc­ture — are “an outline of a Trump campaign speech.” It’s also “a road map for a president who didn’t win the popular vote to become a broadly popular leader.”
