      It was a hook, and the media grabbed it. It’s really more of a way to continue to divide people and keep them in the voting groups. Trump won’t get anyone from the left to vote for him, but he has to keep those on the right in his camp. So these are tools to alienate each from the other and secure the base.

      And it’s also him saying what he really thinks out loud, but it’s been shown time and again he can do that and it won’t be those words that drive people away. His biggest fear is silence, if the media isn’t talking about him then people might drift to other places.
