      1. I think this is write and speaks to a larger fact about Trump. He has a habit of turning sub-text into text. https://twitter.com/publicroad/status/715271188109533184 …

      2. Trump turns subtext into text. He doesn't know how to talk in dog whistle or code & spells out bluntly implications of policy.

      3. Bush talked about WMDs & spreading democracy. Trump says USA should kills enemies & "take the oil." Bush's subtext is Trump's text.

      4. Trump lies all the time & changes positions, his fans see him as refreshingly honest & consistent. Why? He doesn't do dog whistles

      5. In the case of abortion, Trump isn't native to anti-abortion right & doesn't know lingo devised to hide horrifying implications of policy

          7. Usually Trump's inability to talk code or dog whistle helps him. But abortion is so rhetorically fraught he's had to walk back.
