Trump is pulling an Alinsky.

When he attacks, he tries to get under the skin of his opponent

His strategy is to attack where his opponent is most sensitive. It's not for public consumption. We know Carson is a brilliant surgeon. Trump knows Carson is a brilliant surgeon.

Trump's perception is that however humble Carson may appear, he is hiding a secret pride about his work as a surgeon. Ergo, attack at that point.

Great insight. Hence his pinning the ‘low energy’ label on Jen.

I love that one of our candidates is finally using the Alinsky method. He will need it when fighting the liberals who developed it.

Your post is spot on. Especially this. You can SEE the pride in Carson on this point...especially this point.
