Pundits repeatedly talk about Donald Trump reviving and promoting the false “stereotypical liberal” view of Republicans as harsh, anti-immigrant, anti women, bullies, bigoted, extreme, dim, intolerant, who would use the “bomb,” and more. They actually say this is not what Republicans really believe, and, that “Trump has chosen to inhabit a cruel and counterproductive parody of toughness.”
Republicans say they are not like Trump. Yet, he is getting a plurality of the Republicans voting for him. He enjoys a loyal, “passionate” fan-base among Republicans. He has a huuuuuge Republican turnout wherever he speaks. So obviously, while not necessarily appealing to Republican politicians, who would rather lie to their constituents (not that Trump isn’t lying with every word he utters), Trump tells the people…Republicans…what they want to hear.
He does appeal to the Republican base. It’s Republicans voting. This is no parody of Republicans. This hatred is real and horrifying. Is this what you sincerely believe?
And why are so many Republican politicians who have vehemently attacked Trump, saying, “no way,” and, “He’ll kill the party,” and worse….NOW SAYING THEY WILL VOTE FOR HIM. Even those who are now saying they will not vote for him or will stay away from the convention or election…they will support him, campaign for him and vote for him. Guaranteed.
