While concocting clever names for Trump may make you feel better (and some did make me smile), if I were a progressive, my priority would be to understand what made a few million Obama voters in 08 and 12 cross over and become Trump voters in 16, and then figure out how to inspire them to return in 20. Name calling, protesting, burning and breaking shit, violently cracking down on the people’s free speech, wearing pussy hats and costumes, displaying vulgar protest signs, and making vulgar speeches is not going to inspire any of these Trump Democrats to rethink their allegiances. In fact, it may very well turn off moderate Democrats and cause them to also cross over or to just sit out critical elections.
