    Maybe. Or maybe the cruelty is the point and Trump voters will love this because it shows Trump is a badass.https://twitter.com/chrislhayes/status/1111360171794710529 …

    I honestly think "Tried to cut all funding for the Special Olympics" is the kind of thing you could make a central cornerstone of campaign ads in 2020.

        Trump voters love everything he does. If he doubled Special Olympics funding they’d be happy too.

        I don’t think the point of such an ad is to target his base in the hope that it’s susceptible to suasion. It’s to energize the “Resistance Moms” demo that delivered the suburbs for House Democrats in 2018.
