Messages of 'empowerment'? Personally I don't want to hear squat about it. Better still, SHOW ME... because apparently those messages haven't been RECEIVED... not by CERTAIN demographics, at least.
And it's not like Trump & Co. lied to us about who and WHAT they are all about.
They TOLD us of their plans:
of dictatorship, purges, loyalty tests and absolute control of government. SHOWED us their intent, in opposing diversity and inclusion, erasing Black history from school curriculum, rolling back civil rights, abortion rights, voting rights, gay rights, women's rights. TOLD us of the plans for mass roundups.
In their proposals, positions, and governance (or better still - LACK thereof) they DEMONSTRATED their designs on hobbling or sabotaging consumer rights, immunizations, health insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security. Their intent to dismantle government, even DEMOCRACY itself.
They openly displayed their disdain for America's allies... their anti-NATO, anti-European, anti-democracy PRO fascist, PRO authoritarian fervor for world despots like Putin.
They SHOWED us their ideology founded upon hate for the alleged "criminals and rapists, taking 'Black jobs' and eating the cats and the dogs."
And they gleefully DISPLAYED that hate, in their final MSG rally, replete with racist diatribes, cries of "garbage island" and the confederate national anthem (and no, I didn't capitalize that sh---)
In short, they were ALL UP IN OUR FACES about it. And still some jumped ship to vote for THAT.
