Matthew Dowd was not pulling any punches. He went all out to tell an unfortunate truth. One hopes that enough Republicans listen to his prose before it is too late. The indoctrination must end. Those so affected must take their heads out of the sand.
Matthew Dowd nails it
Matthew Dowd has a message every Republican politician supporter should heed. Make sure to tell your Conservative and Republican friends. You may want to have some appropriate examples as you either share this with them or tell them how valued they are to the Republican Establishment.
“I think fundamentally what this is about,” Matthew Dowd said. “The President and the Republican leaders have no respect for their own voters. Think about this. They are willing to say, ‘Those are just rubes over there. We can tell them anything, and they are going to believe it.’ They have no respect for their voters. It’s a used car salesman with a dancing bear and someone in a clown outfit and selling people cars that are going to break down, and you need brake jobs, and it could be dangerous to people.”
Dowd was not done.
“The fundamental thing here is, “Dowd continued. “And I say this to Republicans who support Republicans today and people that support Donald Trump. They are willing to lie and drum up these things because they don’t think you matter. That’s fundamentally what it is. They don’t think you matter. And they are going to treat you like that. That’s the problem.”
Many believe that one simply cannot get to the Trump sycophants or to those who have already gone down the rabbit hole. Truth is, sometimes giving them a place to land is most effective.
