The Republican propaganda machine has suckered you and all the media.
All print, tv, and internet media; candidates; their spokespeople; all the talking heads on all channels, CNN, Fox, MSNBC, local networks; international, national and local press have something in common this political roundup.
The first night of the Democratic National convention, this common denominator was the theme the entire night, as has been the second and third. The Republicans are gleeful, their strategy has been bought so completely by everyone. By you, the reader, as well.
You, and all news and political outlets are being manipulated.
Everyone talks Trump as an individual, not the Republican Party candidate!!
Trump is not an aberration. TRUMP IS THE GOP!
Trump is the GOP candidate!
Say it dudes! Write it, scribes! He is not a lone wolf.
He is the Republican Presidential candidate!
Everyone must change their perspective, outlook and conversation on this topic from dealing with Trump as an personality, to Trump as the Republican Party representative.
He IS the Republican Party today.
The attacks are being made on the man, not the party.
This must change immediately. With every mention of the word "Trump", it must be followed by the phrase, " "and his Republicans.."
The Republicans are getting off scott free, they are hiding in the shadows letting their candidate take the flak, all of which is directed to him personally, and does not include the party, waiting for the results. If he wins, great, if he loses, they were not on the stage. But they are behind the scenes, and have been the party which on the night of Obama's election made the decision of party over country for eight years, deciding to block anything he proposed. Now, they are fundamentally changing the structure of the government by blocking a vote for a Supreme Court justice.
Today, not a peep from outraged Republicans by their candidate suggesting a foreign power and adversary conduct espionage against his opponent!
Again, the Republican Party is not even being mentioned!
Whether the GOP has made some backroom decision or not, the strategy has been brilliant, truly a subtle case of disinformation.
They do NOT want a Trump/Republican association!
To divert, and play to the individual personality is what the GOP wants, and hide the other GOP candidates downline from any association with the guy.
They are doing a very clever and successful thing working with a badly dealt hand.
How often do you hear Trump, as the individual? About 95% of the time, right? This IS their game plan.
The Dems are playing right along, making Trump the person the villain
When it is the GOP, the party that is the real threat.
Dems MUST EXPOSE the TRUMP=GOP combo every time his name is mentioned- that Trump IS the Republican Party, not a loose gunslinger
The GOP has defined the playing field, unfortunately, the Dems, are buying the GOP party line, that Trump is a wild renegade"
What an opportunity the Dems have, unfortunately, they are still plying the Trump as on outlier theme, which the GOP brains want to happen! The GOP does not want a Trump/GOP association!
To counter this, the Dems MUST equal Trump to the GOP, they have not done so, the media is not doing that, and unless they do, the GOP plan of diversion will result in many seats being won by the GOP, hiding away from their candidate, resulting in a personal propaganda diversion and leaving the rest of the slightly diminished GOP candidates around the country separated from Trump, in most cases giving them a better chance than being directly connected to him. CONNECT THEM!
Ain't happening now. We can change that. Every time the name Trump is used, it should be followed by""and all his other Republicans.."
To better the chances of downstream Dem candidates for governors, congressional seats, the Senate, and all local elections, we must associate Trump=GOP!
