I Do Believe That Our Ability To Jam The Trump Brand Is Somewhat Limited. I Think We Can Chip Away At It, But Ultimately The Way To Undermine The Trump Brand Is A Better Product In The Political Marketplace, If You'll Forgive The Capitalist Metaphor. I Do Think That The Negative Messaging On Trump Is Severely Limited Because He Is Tapping Into A Very Deep, And In Many A Rightful, Desire For Deep Change, And A Feeling That The Whole System Is So Broken And So Corrupt That You Might As Well Raise A Middle Finger As Some Kind Of Act Of Agency.
