Stop Squabbling and Dump Trump

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2016/05/30/1532539/-Stop-Squabbling-and-Dump-Trump


Almost everyone here agrees that Donald Trump should not get his hot little hands on the nuclear button, or anything else in the White House. That would be a Yuuge mistake. Now we have to convince everyone else. Here are some of my suggestions; please share any ideas you may have.

Show people with heavy student debt what a con job Trump U was. Try to associate Trump U with F* U in the minds of younger voters (and also in the minds of parents who cosigned college loans).

To reach would-be wall builders tie Trump up with his company that was using undocumented workers. Not only are Americans cheated out of jobs, but these workers are often exploited and abused.

A collage of Trumpish misogyny and dating habits would be of interest to women and all the guys who actually care about them. His first divorce did illuminate his character. (Hillary should not do this herself, but his attacks on her re. her spouse can easily be made to backfire.)

Is there more cotton-candy fuzz on the outside of his head than on the inside? He cannot seem to remember what his policy statement was yesterday if it is inconvenient. I would like to see a video collection of all his "did I really say that?" excuses.

I would also like to see a collection of his greatest flip-flops. (The only consistent message from Trumpf is that he is Yuuge and everybody loves him—especially all the girls.)

I really, really want to see his tax returns.

Keep in mind that Trump followers are mostly good people who have been lied to. Insulting and demeaning them will not get their vote. Sharing facts politely will be much more likely to make them want to listen to us.

Insults will not make anyone want to join us. Telling people they are stupid or racist is not likely to make them want to listen to us. Condescension will not make anyone want to join us. Pointing out that the Donald is really part of the 1% is much more likely to be effective.Trump was raised with a silver spoon in his mouth. Let’s help him to replace it with his foot.

Like many of Trump’s followers I want someone to say "You're Fired" to a lot of politicians and bankers, but Trump will not really do that. He is a businessman as he like to tell us over and over; how could he make a profit that way?

Please share other ways to convince all the decent people who are supporting him to DUMP TRUMP.


We surely don't need this person in The White House......Dump Trump pass it around....he knows nothing about Politics .........
