In reply to the discussion: Trump threatens to pull Republican convention out of North Carolina [View all]LiberalLovinLug
(14,174 posts)48. They won't move it, he just wanted to feed the red meat in his cult
But I think he is, more and more, alienating those on the fringes of the cult. Those that mostly voted for Trump because the RW liars in the media successfully painted Hillary as "crooked". And Trump looked like a breath of fresh air. I am still astounded at how well that worked. To this day almost half of America believes the Clintons are evil and corrupt. Despite no charges, or convictions.
Even when he backs off, which he will, he's done some damage just for throwing this out there. lol.
All those Republican organizers in NC who, for a moment, will feel a little betrayed. And be reminded how fickle and petulant their Dear Leader can be.

Trump has no policy or sense of community to market to voters, so he's all-in on blame the Dems
