Unpacking Donald Trump's controversial Tweet

No he is not. He is an idiot. He is no mastermind.
To be fair, while dumb he certainly appears to be,
he was a mastermind compared to his opposition.
This is a bad thing for us.
It could get him re-elected if the opposition screws
the pooch again. Hey, guys...run someone better.

In any case, please don’t tell him he should go back to where he comes from, too. It is not so far from here.

You're pretty much right, I'm afraid. Though luck was on his side too. Some of that luck was named Comey.
Skill is useful.
But ultimately, luck (unpredictable events
beyond one's control) determines the winner.

They are just a different class of dullard. Their problem is that they never learn or pay attention. Trumpikins is the class clown on the D.C. short bus and that is the only reason people pay attention to him. He is no mastermind and they ain't a bunch of geniuses also.

I think they bought **** tons of lube just for that job. They are way too focus on Trump and that is a fatal mistake

One must allow for the possibility that it's all a carefully
crafted persona designed to achieve political power.
We don't actually know that he's dumb.
But we do know that we observe dumb behavior.

This class clown beat the best the opposition had to offer.
And then their champion dissolved into a puddle of excuses,
fecklessness, irrelevance, blame, & paroxysms of self pity.

I highly doubt that. Nothing about seems careful. Careful left the building and that is what appeals to his base. They don't want carefully crafted anything, they are like bulls in Pottery Barn, they don't give a damn if they break ****, they want to break **** and Trump is their excuse to break ****. All this is is mindless anarchy and people are loving every bit of it.

He didn't beat anyone. You're giving him too much credit. It was that rabid pack of shrews we call his followers that beat Clinton by coming out to vote when the so-called Clinton supporters stayed at home that got him elected. I watched the whole thing, he didn't put up some sort of genius campaign.

One could argue that the Democrats beat themselves.
But this is just bickering over wording.
He won. She lost.

As one of the "rabid" "shrews", I voted for the lesser of 2 evils.
I understand your hostility towards us.
And I bear you no ill will for preferring the greater of 2 evils.

Like heck I have.

Yes you have as all you have is speculation and assertions to pick between mistaken and racist.

I know what I wrote, you know. I can't be lied to about that.

I am just extending the logic trap you put yourself in

Are you even trying?

Are you even thinking about what you have said? As per the above you have concede that a person can be wrong without being racist. You only have assertions to put forward he is. You never addressed any other counter-point I posted. Yet you babble about "trying". Hilarious

Is Pelosi racist?

Why is AOC partnering with someone she called racist?

Politics seems to be over your head.

Because valuing equality, economic and social justice is the greater evil and of white nationalism, misogyny and homophobia is of course the lesser of two evils in your book
And you prefer demonstrated incompetence, corruption, sexism, crony
capitalism, genocide, oppression, homophobia, & bland pantsuits.
How utterly deplorable.
But still, I don't anger at different values & opinions.

Because valuing equality,

He has changed no laws regarding equality.


Ummm you know the economy is at a historic high right now...

and social justice

Identity politics. Yawn

is the greater evil and of white nationalism

Changed no laws. Yawn


Oh now that is a Dem priority? Amusing.

and homophobia is of course the lesser of two evils in your book

Buzzword.
 
I’m pretty confident that they don’t get offended by what each other says about the other.

But words have strong effects on the populace and keeps them stirred up.

Does anyone ever think to themselves ~ “why am I getting so stirred up over a tweet from Donald Trump?”

It's identity politics. If Trump says anything about anyone not a White male it is automatically becomes about identity politics as the left defines themselves based on the superficial.

"As a woman"

"As a POC"

"As a POC woman"

All fine by the left.

"As a white male"

Left screams racist
