(14,566 posts)because it distracts from being focused on the primary issue relative to winning elections.
Just to be clear - DT was literally the last person the establishment wanted to win out of the clown show R primary, and we have never seen an R candidate in our lives who the party at large put serious thought into trying to beat him during the convention vote.
NOW, they got behind him, and they would be perfectly fine with his fecklessness and chaos now as long as the many abhorrent scandals don't reach the point where they can avoid dealing with them.
But, end of the day, people poured into the polls to vote him EAGERLY. I work a poll, and the Trump voters were no drug in to vote, they were not pained to vote for him, they RIGHTEOUSLY voted for him.
This is important to acknowledge, to not get into this "other" that might have installed him or whatever.
Yeah, his candidacy was made possible by decades of hate framing of liberals and general right wing brain washing, yeah, the POS Comey tiled the scales, yeah, Russia did psyops on the dolts who voted for him.
BUT, every single vote was a vote of free will, and again, people were SUPER enthusiastic about casting those votes.
This has to be acknowledged, because we have to accept that 1/3 of this country is that far gone, that hateful or that weak minded to vote for DT.
Know that we can NOT reach this people, they are gone, walking dead gone.
Know that we have to focus our attention on our 1/3 and the "middle' 1/3 that either votes third party or sits out elections.
THAT is where the battle is.
