    He can play a crowd, and if your candidate can’t play a crowd, they will lose to the guy that can. Either you direct their anger at the plutocratic rot now visible on the surface, or the Republicans will misdirect it, those are your only options.

      No candidate I respect can “play” the theme of hunting down non-white people. That’s what they pulled to, not general hatred.

      Theres been plenty of hatred of billionaires and oligarchs long before Trump began his campaign, and they refute it. They praise big businessmen, because businessmen are sometimes racist.

        Who said anything about respecting? He’s a piece of fucking shit. We are talking about skill at public speaking. And rambling, incoherence, mean dumb bigoted traitorous and all, he looks like he’s fighting for his people, and that’s why people that don’t know better like him.
