3. I was SO HAPPY to spray my monitor with windex

while watching this garbage stew and bubble up like the nasty stuff it is. Trump is the SWAMP that needs to be drained.

4. Yeah.....

you can spend that (on average) $800 or you can save it. You'd probably better save it, because after your tax cuts expire, you'll need the money to pay your increased taxes so the extremely wealthy can still get their permanent tax cuts, all paid for by YOU!

This egomaniac hasn't got the brains you'd find in a box-full of old toe-nail clippings.

5. Most of that audience did not look happy.

The farmers should have slung manure at him.

6. i don't wanna watch, just

tell me they didn't do it. please?

[Rural_Progressive]

7. I can't watch it, really I can't

can someone with a stronger stomach than mine please give me the time marker where he tells everyone to "get up"?

8. This is what is really going on:

9. I think we need to realize

…and admit how good and benign and caring his framing is. The average low-information voter has no way to actually judge what he's saying. He makes it sound so good. He's gone make them all rich.

I don't think we can combat this monster until we see and address his skill at seducing his base. Even NPR lead with the headline "An American President visits the Farm Bureau for the first time in a quarter century." ( I don't quite have the correct name for the location.) Why is this? Why didn't O and HRC or Biden ever go there?

If we don't go talk to such groups, we are never going to turn this around.

Whitest looking crowd I've ever seen, but his rhetoric is a real lesson about how to name certain economic issues.

It horrifies us, but we need to see what's really going on—his media and communication skill. Just because it doesn't work with us doesn't mean it's not skilled at working his crowd.
