ANY TIME you see or hear of some stupid shit trump pulled, or said, or tried to do, make a note. WRITE IT DOWN. And share it here on DU. Maybe we need a whole separate discussion hang-out, just on this - if there isn't one already!
It'll be FANTASTIC and SHREWDLY USEFUL information for upcoming campaigns of all kinds, from local all the way to the next Presidential round.
MAKE A NOTE! WRITE IT DOWN! Maybe start a cheap little separate notebook to keep your notes in. You'll be glad you did as the midterm elections approach. It'll help you make your arguments stronger, more powerful, and far less assailable by idiot critics and numbskull loyal trumpers.

(112 posts)Every time Trump pulls off an obvious blunder like freeing all J-6 convicts even hardened criminals convicted of assaulting the police, or rounding up and separating families, or raising prescription drug prices, or firing every IG, a percentage of those who voted for him, realize that they made a bad mistake. We must seek these folks out and spend the next two and four years bringing them in to our camp. Little at a time. Keeping our coalition together while adding from his disillusioned will give us the numbers we need.
We benefit from his (and their) foolish belief he has a mandate. He does not and as long as he tries to operate as if he is invincible, that is the chink in the armor.

(4,673 posts)of bringing the disillusioned into our camp, but it's a double-edged sword, IMO. I think it's one of the reasons the Democratic party has gotten so weak over the last decade or more. We've allowed too many "rinos" into the tent without thorough vetting, and they've hollowed out the party from within. We've gone from huge working man supporters to being in bed with too many big money men or moral ninnies. We do still have some heavy-hitter, democrat ideologically speaking, but we've also got way too many people who got disillusioned under GW and we've only grown them since then.
While we need the numbers who are definitely on our side, I worry we've got too many voter splitters are worse now. Like I said, it's a two-edged sword. Meanwhile, those of us who are dyed in the wool democrats... heavily ideological to the main-stay democratic principles... are too often felt we are pushed aside and/or ignored.

(64,551 posts)I suspect instead that they'll vow never to vote Republican again, and they'll steadfastly uphold that vow until election day, when they remember who they are, and they pull the red lever.
I've known many Republicans who've said "never again," but on the big day they're like "yeah, but..."
Think. Again.
