Donald Trump Jr. seems to understand conservative policy preferences and the details of politics in a way his father seems utterly incapable of understanding it. More than that, he can articulate it. This was, by any measure, a very, very good convention speech.

Trump, Jr. should run for office. He sounds like someone I could vote for, unlike his father. — Erick Erickson (@EWErickson) July 20, 2016

Best speech of the convention so far is Trump Jnr. Very good. They have a Republican in the family! #RNCinCLE — Tim Stanley (@timothy_stanley) July 20, 2016

Don Jr. speech more orthodox Republican than most anything his Dad has said over last year — Rich Lowry (@RichLowry) July 20, 2016

Wow @DonaldJTrumpJr – passionate, focused, conservative & on point. THAT is how to get it done. #rncincle — Michelle Malkin (@michellemalkin) July 20, 2016

I’m not saying make him overlord. But it was a really good speech. Here it is in full:
