Trump sees his base growing from Democratic sparring
The Politico ^ | July 30, 2019 | Gabby Orr

The president’s reelection campaign hopes to use some of the Democratic presidential candidates’ most liberal stances to draw new working-class and independent voters to Trump.

When the Democrats running for president all agreed at their first debate — via a raised hand — that public health insurance should cover undocumented immigrants, the Trump campaign saw an opening.

The campaign war room immediately clipped the video and shared it on social media. President Donald Trump tweeted about it. It was a tactic, people assumed, to rile up Trump’s steadfast but limited base ahead of 2020.

Inside the Trump campaign, though, officials thought they were actually growing that base.

According to four people involved with or close to the Trump campaign, the president’s reelection team believes trumpeting these moments will help win over a certain type of voter that could help carry him to a second term. It’s the voter who might be wary of Trump, but is more alarmed by a Democratic Party they feel is drifting dangerously to the left.

What’s your Democrat “race score”?

Democrats tell middle class white Americans they’re “guilty of white privilege.

Democrats tell middle class white Americans they should pay “reparations” for slaves they never oppressed.

Democrats tell white middle class Americans their taxes must be raised to pay for “free” stuff for “protected” classes… including thousands who cross the border illegally.

Democrats tell middle class white Americans they are bottom rung of their new race “pecking order”.

Democrats fire half their party staff only because they are white… to promote “diversity”.

Democrats lose the white middle class vote next election… including white working class Democrats.

Democrats scream at white middle class Americans they’re “racist” because they didn’t vote to destroy their own freedom and prosperity... with DemWit Socialist fantasies!

Not from “democrats sparring”, but from seeing democrats in their full deranged splendor.

The only sparring going on is who can be the most insane.
