Without the backing of congress which he is obviously not going to get, he can do practically nothing except use the bully pulpit, Facebook, and Twitter to defend his honor which seems to be about all he is really interested in doing.Trump says whatever sounds good, whatever it takes to make his point. If it gets a laugh or a cheer, he's happy. He knows his supporters are not going to fact check him and those that do are part of liberal media so they will be ignored.Maybe someone could explain what Trump did to piss off blacks? Romney who has a black member of his family had about the same percentage of black votes. So I am wondering, is it just that the blacks are expected, demanded, that they vote democrat and they willingly do? Or what? I don't think welfare has been cut since Clinton did it many years ago.
Start from Trump tweeting that 81% of murdered whites are murdered by black people .. when in fact FBI statistics demonstrate that 82% of murdered whites are killed by WHITE PEOPLE...
For people with brains, they immediately recognize the utter ignorance of that claim .. but for right-wingers .. who don't possess the intelligence to recognize truth, it was a call to arms for them.
Trump is not stupid .. he knew the claim was false .. and he knew RWers would get a hard on about it.
So did Trump because he's a racist? Nope, he did it to help the opposition, his friend, Hillary Clinton .. and it worked.
With regards to Romney, had he run against someone other then Obama, I suspect he would have gotten the normal 8 - 9% of the black vote that republicans usually get.
Did you know that Romney got about the same percentage of the white vote that Reagan had in a landslide .. and Romney lost? What does that tell you?
In other words, Trump is preaching to choir. I'm sure the applause and laughs really make him feel good, however it's not these people in his rallies he needs to convince.
He needed to convince them to GET THEM TO his rallies.
HIs issues are sound.
Our trade, and immigration and foreign policies are disasters. HIs proposed solutions will be vast improvements to our benefit.
It is interesting that you made no attempt to defend our current trade, immigration and foreign policies.
Did you even THINK about trying that tact?
Are you admitting that he is right on the issues, but that it does not matter?
