I’d like to think that the left, at least part of it anyway, has more integrity
than to make it up as they go along. What are the credibility numbers for that
piles of horses hit Cruz and Trump are spewing? Isn’t it something like 78$%
bullshit? So Trump hollers he’s going to build a wall, a beautiful wall, and
the Mexicans are going to pay for it, oh, yes indeed, they are, trust
me…really? The Mexican officials had a few choice words for *that* plan. All
Trump ever says, and Hillary does it, too, to a certain extent, is that he has
a plan, and you’ll see what it is, and then he tells his audience to believe
him, and, abracadabra they do. And, I repeat, it’s always I’m going to do this
and I’m going to do that…never “we.”

Marsha, I think that is why us on the left have been losing out the past four
decades. The right has been very good at communicating not only *what* they
want to do but (*how* they will do it, and the voting people latch on to
that. I think we need to do more than just telling people what we want to
accomplish and also tell people the how. Sadly, Trump and Cruz have figured
this out and people are lapping it up. Cruz has addressed the how of his anti
terrorism crap with the how of carpet bombing and nuclear war in the middle
east. People in thn the evangelic heartland like to hear that. Trump is
addressing the how of curtailing undocumented immigration by talking about
building walls and turning people back at the borders and again the
uneducated wites are lapping it up. If the left ever did something similar by
speaking to the how as much as the what then I think we may have a chance
turning things around both in the oval office and in congress.
