Good stuff...Ridiculing Trump may damage him more than sermonizing about him.

what's interesting is we're trying to turn someone into a cartoon figure who ALREADY is a cartoon!

(17,199 posts)4. the question is, can anything sway his supporters?
facts don't work ... will parody and satire?
I have a feeling there is no getting through to most of them.

(30,470 posts)5. It's a good question, and I'm not sure of the answer, but it
can 't hurt to try. I have a feeling making him look like a fool could hurt him.

But those parodies and satires will get to the independents and undecideds and conservative Democrats who might consider Trump. If they begin to laugh at him (not with him), it will make it very hard for them to vote for him.
