Comments on: The imperative to test Trump’s limits https://occasionalplanet.org/2017/01/25/why-its-important-for-john-mccain-and-other-republicans-to-challenge-trump/ Progressive Voices Speaking Out Fri, 27 Jan 2017 02:41:00 +0000 hourly 1 By: Stacy Mergenthal https://occasionalplanet.org/2017/01/25/why-its-important-for-john-mccain-and-other-republicans-to-challenge-trump/#comment-7572 Fri, 27 Jan 2017 02:41:00 +0000 http://occasionalplanet.org/?p=35872#comment-7572 I agree. His fragile ego slash thin skin makes Trump frighteningly unpredictable. I sometimes wonder if he wants public adoration so much he may give in to demands on certain issues. On the other hand, and much more likely in my opinion, he might react spitefully and do the opposite of what people are asking him to do.

I imagine using a sort of positive reinforcement campaign on Trump where we mobilize people to Tweet things like: “Trump could be the best. #universalhealthcare” “Trump’s best idea yet: clean water for all Americans.” And get thousands to call the White House and praise Trump’s “plan to close Guantanamo”. That sort of thing. I bet even Republicans would join in if we didn’t let on it was a progressive idea. 🙂 There are plenty of issues we agree on. They’re not things Trump would normally go for and his “advisors” may talk him down but the delivery appeals to his ego. If he wants to take credit for things, let them be good things, right? #alternativefacts
