Dude, Trump didn't even refer to BLM, SJWs, antifa by name at all during the campaign even though he had every incentive to do so and was a free shot. 


These neo nazis are going to blow all the momentum the right has gained.

A presidential campaign and the presidency is the most powerful bully pulpit in the world and it should never ever be used against innocent Americans even if they agree with BLM, SJWs, KKK or alt right.

Hillary tried to do that with deplorables and it completely fricked her up.

Trump isnt Hillary or Obama here playing identity politics.

By going hardcore on the trade issue.

How the hell do you think he managed to turn a state like Michigan red? Racism?

Trump actually did worse than romny in a bunch of southern states, including south carolina, north carolina, and texas and georgia.

It's easy to give examples like that but everyone knows identity politics played a large part in Trump's campaign and base. To say otherwise is not being truthful.

You disingenuous frick.

We just came off 8 solid years of identity politics. You're just pissed off that there was backlash from that that you were too stupid to see coming.

If you mean Trump is somehow into identity politics... yeah that's a bad argument.



Not Trump -- the demographic that makes up his base

Good for him. This can sink the Republican party if you don't denounce them.

Both parties have idiots that identify with them.

This is why their are more people that identify as independent nationally than either party.

I have slowly moved from being a moderate republican to a independent. Both sides are trying to grow their base even if that means they lose the moderates of their party.
