2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumCall them Trump's defenders not his supporters. Suggest you do the same.
I've started calling them Trump's defenders. They will defend anything he says or does. They are not supporters - they are just defenders.
Defenders are positioned to deflect and deny - they are not positioned to explain or unify.
