Can Trump's Demonizing 4 Female Americans of Color Succeed?

He may have no other option, but it is not a promising strategy.

Decent Americans - the nation's diverse populace who embrace American values - are disgusted by Trump's shamelessly pandering to his angry white guys, and he motivates those normal folks as well - to rescue America from squalid Trumpery.

His hyperbolic, nativist shtick is clearly pleasuring his neo-nazis and other white supremacists who hail him as their "God Emperor!" and "Glorious Leader!", but that faction is far outnumbered by the nation's diverse populace - conspicuously including those better-educated, suburban women who normally lean Republican.

Democrats would do well to focus on issues Americans care about - reducing Trump's soaring national debt and healthcare costs, rebuilding Trump's horribly neglected infrastructure, reconciling with previously loyal allies to further America's global interests, instituting comprehensive immigration reform that does not rely on Trump's "duct-taped women!" and "prayer rugs everywhere!" paranoia.

Honestly confront the ineluctable impact of not-a-Chinese-hoax global warming, and end the limp-wrist, firearm permissiveness that results in the horrific slaughter of so, so many.

If red caps need to parrot "Send her back! Send her back!" regarding a fellow American who has committed no crime beyond peeving a narcissist, let them squawk.

Lindsey 'Pudd'nhead' Graham has contrived an alternative excuse for Trump:
​

Graham (R) renewed his defense of Trump on Wednesday in light of his recent attacks on a group of minority congresswomen, saying that the remarks were "more narcissism than anything else."

"I really do believe that if you're a Somali refugee who likes Trump, he's not going to say "Go back to Somalia!" A racist says go back to Somalia because you're a Somalian or you're a Muslim or whatever, that's just the way he is. More narcissism than anything else."

... and then there is fellow Trump disciple Duncan 'Dirty Dunkie' Hunter's all-purpose defense:

'He's an assh*le, but he's our assh*le!"

Does anyone believe this is a terrific re-election rallying cry in America?

Your trolling isn't working. If you think Trumps support is just "angry old white men" then I accuse you of being a racist. I haven't seen any posts from so called neo-nazi or other race groups. We on the other hand have a lot of racist rhetoric from our four young Congresswoman don't we? Don't you people have any other issues to run on other than playing the race card every time. America has gone past you.

 

Of course Trump cannot succeed with this demonization.

He has already lost several percentage points in popularity.

Maybe he can go after Mary Poppins.

 

Trump actually gained points among his base. No matter what anyone says, it never was about economic anxiety. People voted for Trump because they want to Make America white again.

 

He did make an accurate point about love of

Trump is being compared to Clinton or Obama or the Quad Squad, not to any real American heroes or statesmen.

How sad.

 

Rashida Tlaib is Palestinian, which according to the US Census makes her White. Ocasio-Cortez is Puerto Rican, and claims mixed ancestry, but who’s to know? It’s unlikely she’ll be as dumb as Elizabeth Warren and submit to a DNA test. Just going by the eyeball test though, if her last name were Italian, French, or Greek we wouldn’t even be having this conversation. There is no paper bag test applied to people claiming to be “people of color.” I don't think they are any sort of "People of Color."

 

No, it will cost him the election if he keeps it up.

You don't have any racist rhetoric from anyone in "the squad". You also don't have any anti-Semitic remarks from them. Trump lies. A lot Don't be stupid and believe anything he says.

 

I'm truly worried about the safety of the four women in the 'squad'. All it takes is one whack-o and as far as I'm concerned it's the whack-o's in America that respond to trump's dog whistle.

 

Omar is anti-Israel, and that's a fact.

Yes, Trump's followers (more than a few, I think) are dangerous that way, Capt Nice. It is the duty of the rest of America to keep an eye on them and report them when they appear dangerous.

 

Omar has criticized Israel because Israel has done some awful things. That's not antisemitism.

 

kvmj, I did not say a word about anti-semitism.

Israel can clean up its act yet, but not at the expense of national security. Flat fact.

Arabs hold the key to peace.

 

Oh yes, americans hate when their president calls out anti american scumbags.

 

When is President Trump going to do that?

He could begin with calling himself out.

ARe you worried about our president?

 

The legal and constitutional Iran agreement required the return of Iran's money that had been frozen in the US.

Yes, my friends ~ it was Iran's money in the first place.

 

I'm not worried about Trump. He has bulletproof cars, helicopters and planes to take him wherever he needs to go. He's well guarded by Secret Service.

 

Trump is incredibly well protected.

The quad squad, of course, are not.

 

Disgusting, divisive phrases like "Americans of color" don't resonate with normal people. Dividing the world into white vs. nonwhite (i.e. "of color") is something most non-race hustlers don't agree with.

 

I picture tRump focusing on patriotism, against socialism, nationalism and the economy. I think he decided to pick a target outside the candidates, probably because no clear runner exists, to lay the socialism claim on.

 

Omar & Tlaib should have probably considered that before becoming Hamas spokewomen. CAIR has direct ties to the Palestinian terrorist regime, and Omar & Tlaib both fundraise for, and receive donations from CAIR and many other islamic extremist orgs. The BDS movement is the same type of economic jihad Hitler waged against the Jews. The anti-semitic motivation behind Omar & Tlaib's congressional sponsorship of BDS couldn't be clearer. After all, Omar & Tlaib oppose the US sanctions imposed on Iran. Pelosi & Schumer both viciously condemned BDS at AIPAC, and are poised to introduce a resolution condemning BDS. Omar & Tlaib are waging jihad against Jewish congressmen in their own party. Trump may hate 'em, but I just love 'em. They're poster children for "extreme vetting" and merit based immigration law.

 

As seems clear in this thread, Trump has fully succeeded with his minion base already.

 

The base, yes, but he can't win with that alone. He needs to add votes, and that he is clearly not doing.

Trump has fail again.

 

Thing is....all he needs to do is keep his minion base intact and hope the opposition does as usual and stay home on election day. Hi base is pretty much guaranteed to turn out and all he needs to do is dog whistle some time in November
