. . . his team are worried that their opponents’ descriptions of him as a racist and a fascist may be breaking through to segments of voters.
They're worried he's racist and fascist?
"No, they're worried some voters might be figuring that out and not vote for him"
Oh.
Maybe Republicans should think of Puerto Ricans as human beings first, rather than as just a source of votes and grift income.
Lolwut? Think of the brown guys as human???
Pfft right. Next, this guy will say that women aren't property and not breeding vessels.
tRump called the whole US the world's garbage can last week. It's literally their campaign.
Puerto Ricans (in Puerto Rico) can't vote for president, so maybe their hope was that it wouldn't matter what they said about them? Hopefully people in swing states prove them wrong at the ballot box.
It's a good thing that there are no Puerto Ricans living in the continental US who are eligible to vote. Like, imagine if there was something like a 2-to-1 ratio of Puerto Ricans in the US as those on the island? That'd be craaaaazy.
Oh, absolutely. I'm calling this "strategy" stupid.
But there are signs, publicly and privately, that the former president and his team are worried that their opponents’ descriptions of him as a racist and a fascist may be breaking through to segments of voters.
No there is fucking not. Trump's own silence about it is deafening. A couple of campaign lackeys trying to spin it away in "a statement" and "a fucking tweet" doesn't even rise to the level of lip service.
Lol trump campaign tweets like "uh that guy wasn't with us"
Ohhh that clears it right up, then.
I bet his poll numbers went up because of it. His supporters love overt racism.
Trump and team needs to be sent packing.
To prison
Harris you might want to crank out a fresh attack ad. While you got the time. Now he cares about racism suddenly lol?
Kamala should just call him a racist. Because that's what he is. Anyone else is willfully ignorant.
Nope. She should stick to how well the economy has recovered, and anti-abortion laws are putting married women who are trying to have babies at risk. Oh, and the border has actually been 3x stronger under Biden than under Trump.
Because of Kamala pushes racism, Trump can swoop in at the last second and denounce that comedian with a big show speech.
Let the press cover it.
I'm here for that title alliteration. Also f%ck that guy
Could have been "Trump Team Fears Fallout From Racist Rally Remarks".... So close
