    Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Jeff B. is *BOX OFFICE POISON*

    Isolating & focusing on the most extreme, ignorant & bigoted voices in the Democratic caucus is a rational strategy. But doing it in the crude, ugly way Trump has is self-defeating.https://twitter.com/EsotericCD/status/1151644904206020608 …

    Dan McLaughlin added,

    Whether or not Trump intended it initially (rather than just being another bigoted brain-burp), it's obvious at this point that he's leaning into demeaning and attacking "The Squad" to make them the face of the Democrats in 2020. Axelrod is right: it's a cold, hard strategy.

        When your strategy is to illustrate the extremism of the other side, you need to stay cool yourself in order to make the contrast work.

        Calling Trump self-defeating. Tweets from 2015?

        I am reminded that Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense” was considered a crude argument against Brit monarchy, but I am hesitant to make a direct correlation as it seems our overall language is much more crude than it used to be. Even Rashida Tlaib stated as much. She is fine w/cursing

        Self-defeating? Seems like an area of expertise of today's National Review.
