If a response is more than a few words as a takeaway on Twitter then what you’re suggesting is useless. That’s what President Trump understands and you don’t.

Lol. Trump made those comments in an interview with Chris Wallace and not via Twitter alone.

If you don’t think Trump needs a minor course correction, I can respect that. But I see the game has changed now that we are heading to the next Presidential election. After having pretended to go along with him while sabotaging him via Ryan, the NeverTrumpers are backn I n force to blame him for loss of the House(what a joke). The left is uniting with the NeverTrump movement and using them as useful idiots. The NeverTrumpers are gleefully used as such.

But this is the playbook from here on out. Get a liberal member of victim/protected/honored class to criticize Trump. Count on Trump to go school yard. Then the leftist propaganda machine can go to work trying to use that one person as a wedge to separate Trump from an entire group. It won’t work all at once but eventually, whether you want to admit it or not, it will peal off enough. Trump needs to be smarter than them and he is.

He also needs to expand his base of support and not shrink it. His style may play well to the rural crowd but the last election evidences to me that it does not play well to the suburban crowd of country club GOP types.

They supported the GOP during the Obama years because Obama’s policies punished them (purposefully). Thus, the suburban voters were voting GOP because they were with them on the issues. Along comes Ryan and dumps those issues in the trash and leaves the suburban voter with one reason to vote GOP, to save Trump from a dem house. The suburban voters were no only not going to do that they went the other way.
