    You know what I mean. Yes, some liberals will always attack republicans that way, and vice versa. But Trump is getting that from moderates and people who might have otherwise voted republican.

    -Trump response: See, this is why I will win! This is why blacks will vote for me. VOTE TRUMP!

    -Obama response: This is another senseless tragedy. We grieve for these families. The problem is guns and poverty, and let's start with addressing guns.

    Clearly the same kind of "exploitation."

    I may be wrong but I don't believe that Obama's first reaction after a tragic incident is to push send on a tweet exploiting said tragedy. There would have been nothing wrong, in my view, if Trump would have sent his condolences in the first tweet and after the dust settled pointed out that violence in our inner cities needs to stop. But that isn't Trump and that is why it was a despicable act.

    No. Everything is exactly the same as everything else and context is just a tool of the vast left-wing conspiracy.

    Of course Obama exploits. All politicians do.

    It's the WAY Trump does this shit...

    Spelling his name wrong...

    Not offering condolences... (until hours later after the backlash)...

    Ending it with VOTE TRUMP !

    It's crass. It's crude. It lacks empathy. It's narcissistic. It's impulsive.

    All the qualities that, at a gut level, scare people in a prospective president of the United States.

    Crass. That's a very good word for it, and why people will not support Donald Trump to the extent he will need them to.
