I think he summarized everything perfectly this was approval of Trumps policies but they hated Trump’s tweets
I have to disagree.
They hated Trump’s entire philosophy; and hated the love and respect that he exhibited toward our foundational American Principles.
Trump’s rough style and tweets were just an easy thing upon which they could hang their hatred, and by which they could suck-up to the public opinion of lots of overly touchy and shallow-thinking Leftists who had no interest in - or ability to comprehend - substance at all.
Back in 2016, a couple of people said that the media took Trump literally, but not seriously; while his supporters took him seriously, but not literally.
Surprisingly, there was never any change in that. For quite a while, now, our vaunted news media seem to have been largely run by people with only high-school level educations and perceptional abilities.
(Or else, they’re just on the make.)
Huskrrrr:
I must apologize if my post 16 misinterpreted your own comment.
I was thinking about what we used to call ‘the press’, and now call ‘the media’. I thought you were referencing the portion of the VDH interview that dealt with polling and media pronouncements.
It’s possible that some of the election results are due to individual voters’ distaste for Trump’s style - but I still think that’s a very silly concern, and there have been far more important things than style to consider..
