Hello everyone, just popping my was above the parapet again to post this interesting article from last night's Phoenix rally- I am genuinely so fascinated to unpick trump's continuing appeal but it's really hard on social media because of all the #maga crap and the mudslinging/bot-spotting. However, reading these people's testimonies is fascinating. There does seem to be a deep-rooted abhorrence for the mainstream media with all sorts of terms like Marxist, Leftist, Socialist etc being banded around. Tbf, I think the media is for the most part dead set against trump. However, a president with an instinct for political wrangling and a team of shit hot PR and Press advisors should be able to strategically steer him through this so that he can work with them rather than pit himself against them so completely. He is an absolute fucker, and not a very bright one at that. However these people seem not to begrudge him his right to e this way at all. Am baffled. Anyway, here it all is: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/aug/23/trump-supporter-interviews-phoenix-arizona-rally?CMP=fb_gu
