If an undecided voter agrees with anything that "the bigot" says, then he is by association a bigot and becomes equally offended. That's how Trump gets voters
Trump uses terms like infestation and invasion because he knows it triggers the dems and makes them come back with ... you racist bas ... polarising .... because at the end of the day, there is an immigration problem, everyone knows it .... everyone knows something needs to be done .... but here are the dems calling Trump a racist bas for suggesting it
Everything Trump does is planned to divide and polarise ... and with the exception of one or two like Nancy, he gets them every time.

It's not a generalised term, like every other word it has a specific dictionary definition.
Of course nobody is going to like being accused of being a bigot.. but if you say bigoted things then why is it wrong to highlight that? It appears to me that you would have to be very thin skinned not to even attempt to acknowledge that, why is it 'polarising'?
I think you're wrong he doesn't use those words to trigger dems... he does it to sit seeds of division,it dehumanises whichever group you want to alienate. ..the Nazis did it very effectively.
Nobody is calling Trump for making a point about immigration, which he could legitimately do, however it HIS use of polarising language and rhetoric that us causing untold damage as his words as president are very powerful. Instead of tempering his language to reflect his diplomatic status he insists on being inflammatory. As you say he lives to divide and polarise are they the actions of a right, fair and just president? |
