What is Trump's central platform message for 24?
Posted on 7/3/23 at 7:24 am
Posted on 7/3/23 at 7:24 am
2016, it was "build the wall" and "bring jobs back from China" and "drain the swamp" and "lock up Hilary"
2024, "The left attacks me" and "DeSantis is disloyal"
If Trump could make his messaging less about himself (and I don't deny that he isn't persecuted), and more about the people he is asking to support him, I would find his message more compelling.
One of his main issues is his personal ethos of never admitting any wrong doing. He is stuck in a bit of a trap, he can't just repeat the 2016 message "We are going to build the wall" or "drain the swamp".
Because then the question comes back "Why didn't you build the wall?" Or "Why didn't you drain the swamp?" This would require either he gaslights to the extreme saying "I did build the wall" or "I did drain the swamp"... or going against his ethos, and say he couldn't get it done because of X,Y,Z, but he has learned from his misteps and will do better next time.
But back to the point. Does the 2024 platform have an equivalent message to the 2016 "Build the Wall"?

Drain the swamp while hiring them and continue to make sick burns.

Finish the things that China interrupted with their biological warfare.
The biggest thing he is running on is freedom.
The freedom to keep your guns.
The freedom to keep your gas and diesel vehicles.
The freedom to keep your gas and wood stoves.
The freedom to have washing machines and dishwashers that work.
The freedom to have the light bulbs and showerheads you want.
The freedom to speak out without having the IRS, FBI, and DOJ sicced on you.
The freedom to protect your kids.
The freedom to work without being forced to take experimental pharmaceuticals.
It's a very powerful platform really.

Asks the question and then gives an answer that's not even true

Yet he does and has. Headline:
Trump: 'I Said It, I Was Wrong, And I Apologize.'
“I’ve never said I’m a perfect person, nor pretended to be someone that I am not. I’ve said and done things I regret, and the words released today on this more than a decade-old video, are one of them,” Donald Trump said, in a videotaped message posted to Facebook, on Friday night. “I said it, I was wrong, and I apologize.”

No, it doesn't. That's just a talking point from the GOPE who BLOCKED Trump on those.
Most people do not blame Trump for Paul Ryan and Mitch the Bitch's blocking of Trump.
Nobody expected Trump to return DC to the American people in a term either. From the get go, we all (even here on this board) stated that it would take decades to undo the DECADES of building that.

Here is the point.
If you want to turn the USA into France - vote Democrat.
If you want to turn the USA into Ukraine - vote for a neocon RINO Republican.
If you want to Make America Great Again - vote for President Donald J. Trump.

There is no platform. At best, he is a retarded crybaby melting on truth social who will soon be behind bars.
At worst, he is working hand in glove with the left to get more dems elected. Hell, he handed the dems the senate on a silver platter by telling republicans to stay home.
That’s what his pal and Obama lover Kari Lake did too.

Aubie101 posting in ignorance early today.
I broke down what the OP stated. I showed where he was wrong. Gumbopot linked to the issues Trump is running on.
You simply don't like it when people point out things and need to attack the messenger. It's a fallacy. Here... From Auburn University
(Attacking the person): This fallacy occurs when, instead of addressing someone's argument or position, you irrelevantly attack the person or some aspect of the person who is making the argument.

Dude you still haven’t explained the plan to win a general election. You just bump junk polls all day and shriek in every thread. Some of us here are adults and actually want to win.

He did say in Pickens that he would sign an EO to stop the woke DEi/crt/queer shite so that's good. I haven't cared for his past relaxed beliefs on it but I think indocrinating children crossed lines for many, and that's at least a good sign we can agree and come to terms on. Anyone that tried to justify bringing children into is not acceptable and should be a hard line.
We definitely need the DOE to go on a patriotic blitz in the school systems though. Especially since Biden let in so many in that don't know anything about this nation.

You throw out “Marxist prick” whenever you are challenged on any issues of substance or strategy. That might work with the Mike Lindells and the Sidney Powells of the world, but it will not work with, say, a middle class voter in Atlanta or Milwaukee or Phoenix who voted democrat because they just wanted the adults back in the room. Please explain how you will expand the GOP vote.
Also, keep lying about DeSantis. That was cute, your debate claim yesterday.

Whatever the mobs don’t burn down in summer of 2024 finish the job. Arrest Adam Schiff and Hilary Clinton day 1. Straight to GITMO.

You’ll never have anything then. Keep “winning” I guess.

The two things that Trump needs to focus on in his platform are two of Trump weaker points.
The culture war. He doesn't need legislation, just use the bully pullpit.
The budget deficit/overspending. The debt service on the national debt is about to swallow us whole. We should be in "crisis mode".

What was he apologizing for here?
