          RE: The Deplorable comment...

          To me, this is a MASSIVE lost opportunity for the Clinton campaign. Instead of just brushing the group off, they should have applied some of the same ideas that they plan to other people who are radicalizing around the world. For the most part, it's the same cultural/tribal mechanisms that push people to the radical right as pushing Muslims to radical Islam. Same tools can be used, same application, and this group of people are here in the US.

          She identified the ones that were left behind as ones they need to figure out and attract. She should have identified the others as an opportunity to reduce the racist right or general A**holes where people just like to anger others for fun.

            And the same mechanisms and psychology that fueled the rise of fascism in the 30s: resentment, scapegoating, and a fanatical drive to restore the "purity" of "traditional values."

            It is easy to imagine Goebbels looking over Berlin or bin Laden looking over Riyadh and muttering "I don't recognize my country anymore."

                    So, tl;dwtr: Both sides have PC totems. Liberals may be in control of campuses now, but in the past the shoe has been on the other foot and I didn't heard cries for intellectual freedom from the right. Likewise, there are plenty of public spaces still riddled with conservative prohibitions. The criticism of soldiers or cops or Christianity will get you a sock in the nose in plenty of places. Community standards all too frequently define what is permitted to be said, and we should fight against that whether the would-be transgressor is left or right. Voltaire and all that jazz.
                    The foaming at the mouth of the kneeling for the anthem is proof of that. Both sides have seem to live by "FREE SPEECH IS THE TOP RIGHT...unless I hate your speech than HOW DARE YOU SPEAK FREELY!!?!??!?!!1!!!"

                        Drumpf would never hire the right person for that...he doesnt care about PR and that is PR101. He believes any PR is good PR...which has served him well enough to lose

                          True, but Drumpf also gets free of him. Drumpf can be happy White Supremacists support til the cows come home but in public he needs to walk away from it not tacitly thank them by saying nothing.
