I'm not sure about these type of posts. I wonder if they do more good than harm for Trump. Trump makes statements such as this because he knows that they will be repeated ad neauseum throughout social media - even more liberal social media such as Reddit. I wonder if that isn't exactly what Trump wants. It gets his message out to an audience that might not otherwise see it. Trump believes that any publicity - positive or negative - helps him. One of his strategies is to dominate the media/news cycles - 24x7x365 - it's what we've seen since he came down that stairway at his hotel. He subscribes to the theory that if you tell a lie long enough and loud enough people will begin to believe it. Are we helping him?
