“Trump is playing to his base.”...WTF does that even mean?

[Camp]

We hear it all the time right?
It’s generally used in negative context to describe how he refuses to govern on behalf of lowlifes, illegals, anti American unAmericans, criminals, pole puffers, feminazis and crazy men wearing dresses...right?
You people have to let it go...With a nation this divided there is just no way to govern on behalf of all anymore. This president is committed to busting his ass but ONLY for GOOD REAL AMERICANS.
I’m pretty sure nobody sane needs “good, real Americans” defined.
So let it go....get your shit right and learn to appreciate a POTUS willing to fight for our best. After all, you don’t really want a ‘coach’ who writes the playbook around his worst players do you? Not if you ever want to win...right?
Oh wait, that Kenyan dude did exactly that didn’t he?

It means he's talking only to the low information wackos who believe his lies unquestioningly, not trying to convert or convince any doubters.

If we were as intelligent as you we would all know that creating a welfare nation is the way to go.
We’re all just too dumb to get it.

Our founding fathers created a welfare nation. Farms and forests were given away free to poor citizens and immigrants. During that period nothing was more valuable to a poor family than owning a farm.

That statement is absurd on multiple fronts. If you had even a rudimentary understanding of farming especially 100-200 years ago, you would be embarrassed by your ridiculous post.

Done some farming have you?

I suspect that your definition of “real good Americans” would differ from most people’s definitions of “real good Americans”.

My definition of “real good Americans” are people who work hard, show respect for others and their Constituotinal rights. That includes not calling women “feminazis”, or gays “pole puffers”.

It means respecting the law, including laws you personally don’t like, and working to change them through legal means.

It means not supporting those who are damaging the USA at home or abroad. Trump supporters are NOT, by definition, “good Americans”. They are working on behalf of a man who is destroying everything your country built and stands for.

The example I see of playing to his base is in the area of foreign trade. I believe we hold all the cards and do have legitimate case for changes to trade agreements. But it seems to me that Trump is more engaged in self-promotion playing to his base with his chest pounding as opposed to stating a clear case and promoting American products abroad. I hope changes to trade deals get done soon. I also hope Trump hasn't generated an anti-American attitude towards our products.

Obviously, "playing to your base" is a euphemism for saying "my tribe and I have all the answers, fuck you, we're gonna cram them all straight down your throat for your own good."

And this is why neither party is able to hold power for long.

Nice post except that 99% of your posts deal with “The Wall”.

President Donald Trump won the White House in 2016 due, in large part, to his willingness to play on deep-seated fear of the other.

"They" were invading America,Trump argued.

"They" were challenging "our" values, changing the face of America in ways that were deeply damaging to the country.

In ways large and small, Trump has continued to blow the dog whistle as President -- insisting that on everything from immigration to trade, America is under very serious threat from the "other," and that unless things change, we will lose what is fundamentally American.

Trump took that call up a level and aimed to not only draw a very bright line between "us" and "them" but also to raise the stakes of that made-up fight.

What Trump is doing is using the caravan to play on the fears of the country -- and, in particular, his supporters.

Trump knows what he is doing here.

Look for a relentless focus on the wall and the threats posed by allegedly unfettered immigration between now and November. And it will likely gin up the GOP base.

That won't mean Republicans can dodge the likely hit they will take.

But, it might mitigate it slightly.

But that doesn't make what he's doing presidential. Or right.


Trump's dog whistle on immigration is more like a scream





way to go, you pitifully ignorant terrified dumbos!

the only ones WINNING with this dishonest and divisive rhetoric are the terrorists!

Speaking of socks...

He is playing to his base... that is Americans.

Finally we have a pro-American president.

Well, there ya go.

Everything he says and does is meant to placate people like you.

You're welcome.
.

“People like me”?
Oh you mean positive contributing, law abiding, patriotic, prideful, English speaking people like me?
How fucking terrible.

Sure, everyone should think just like you, or there's something wrong with them.

So, Trump plays to that.

How many times do you need this answered?
.

Well, I mean that’s kinda the point Mac...good, real Americans share some common denominators. ALL good, real Americans are positive contributing, law abiding, patriotic, prideful and English speaking.
I know the Left hates behavioral standards and all...but I don’t make this shit up. It is what it is.

His base is America.

I guess the leftists are angry that he isn't playing to our enemies, like the previous admin did (and does).

America is not 38% of the morons who support Trump.

tRumputins base is;
Quote:
“The folkish-minded man, in particular, has the sacred duty, each in his own denomination, of making people stop just talking superficially of God's will, and actually fulfill God's will, and not let God's word be desecrated. For God's will gave men their form, their essence and their abilities. Anyone who destroys His work is declaring war on the Lord's creation, the divine will.”
