You have forgot the extent to which Trumpâs mere presence radicalizes people.
It would fall on deaf ears and he'd be written off as an orange game show host if they hadn't already been simmering for about 5-10 years prior.
Or more accurately, if radicalization wasn't in vogue then Trump would try different levers to pull.
This isn't a politics thing. Anyone who has ever paid attention to the last decade's worth of movies, corporate restructuring, mainstream commercials, government contracting rules, music promotions, public school activities etc. can see that.

There are reasons you are seeing this happen in the UK and elsewhere. The polarization across the west is quite stark.
And @jon-nyc the Floyd riots were only the latest and the worst, particularly bad because of the lockdowns and pandemic stress/fears.
The recent Pro-Palestinian protests in DC weâre as bad as anything we saw during Floyd (in DC), and werenât as bad as the anti-Trump riots in January 17. But letâs not forget Baltimore 2015, Ferguson in 2014, Trayvon Martin and more.
And it doesnât have to be about Race. Occupy Wall Street wasnât as violent, but set the stage for a lot of whatâs come since.

Which one is the party of the "elites" now?
Trump & Vance - both attended Ivy League schools.
Harris & Walz - neither has attended an Ivy League school
Biden also did not go to an Ivy League school.

True enough but Race is what puts the sizzle in the rabbleâs flambĂ©.

@George-K Wait until he finds out what Trump did to skirt his duty.
Just so you know, this is called a Ratio. When the number of views far exceed the likes and when the number of comments far exceed the number of likes. In politics, it will typically indicate a weakness and a position that may hurt the personâs chancesâŠ

Think about the moment in the VP Debate when Vance brings up the fact that Walz retired to avoid the combat that Vance enlisted for.

It is never going to be otherwise. It's not possible.
And when the number of comments far exceed the number of likes.
What that means is "kneejerk reactions." Usually it means an extremeâcould be good, could be bad.
Although in politics, it would be exceedingly rare indeed for this to be a positive indication. Like if Biden punched out RFK or something I guess it might happen but it's far from the norm.

Walz reenlisted 7 days after 9/11, after serving his 20. Thatâs not what you would do if you were afraid of service during wartime
like Trump.Only non-witches get due process.

My what prescient Swiftboaters they were!
Like I wrote they wasted no time to deploy. Hell, they were already in the water!

I've listened to Walz. I know he is a masculine and common sense sort of pick for the left. I didn't so much like the language he used when he called Trump a bastard. He wants to position himself that way, it will align the opposition.
Education is extremely important.

I listened to his interview in which calls Trump that. Didnât care much for it all either. He does not use the epithet with the same erudition and panache as Sean Bean:
