But Domenech never mentions how Trump stole something else: attracting hordes of people to his appearances who come from all walks of life, but especially blue collar independents and Democrats.
That's what Rand Paul hoped to do all along, recreating the Republican brand.
Trump is succeeding at what elite libertarians have only been able to dream of politically, but now that they've got what they wished for they want nothing to do with it because Trump is uniting people through a conservative value: patriotic American nationalism.
Rand Paul doesn't get it, and neither does Domenech: Americans are conservative much more than they are libertarian.
