    Default Trump coalition,“an important part of their worldview is victimization and aggrieved

    Strategists in both parties, along with independent analysts, largely agree that Trump can energize his supporters by insisting that they are the actual victims of bigotry. But by motivating his core voters in that manner, Trump is utterly dismissing the concerns of the majority of Americans who now consistently describe him in polls as racist or racially insensitive. Like so many of Trump’s choices, that means his response to these accusations is likely to energize his base at the price of limiting his capacity to reach beyond it.

    And with just his base made up of the uneducated white trash Christians in dying rural flyover country, doesn't look too good

    — Golda Meir

    "“On the face, it just seems like a terrible strategy, because it is pretty clear he is alienating more people than he is winning over with these arguments, and he could be doing better if he was focusing on other things,” Schaffner said."

    Trump is stuck. If he turns his back on the propaganda schtick then he risks losing his base. All the Dems need to do is put a strong likable candidate out there and make sure people remain angry at having to endure this horrible president. They will RUSH to the polls to vote him out.

    Trump has also put all his eggs in the economy basket.

    If the economy tanks so does he.

    RINO is the term for that rare Republican who puts country above party.

    Right wing = lie, lie, and lie some more.


    "When I am president I'm going to be working for you. I'm not going to have time to play golf" Donald J. Trump, world class snake oil salesman and compulsive golfer August 2016

    The definition of "racist" as "anyone who is white" is itself racist.

    And that is a world wide trend. It's a funny thing what triggers people. There is crowd mentality. After a party has run it's course and some begin to leave, it is a trigger for others to follow along and do the same thing.
