TRUMP: Memo to his base

The Atlantic Magazine recently wrote about the “malignant cruelty” of Donald Trump, labeling him “wicked” and “corrupted,” corrupting his own party and the country as a whole.

In a perverse sort of way, that’s the appeal of Trump to his base. The irony is that Trump despises the very base of people who support him, the group that religiously shows up at his rallies, “losers” as he’s referred to them well before his election.

Apparently, they are without logic and critical thinking skills because they haven’t figured that out yet.
