Trump's camp lives off this stuff too:
Republican? Kinda, let's discuss.
Conservative? In some ways, but not others.
Racist? Dunno, let's look at definitions and argue about it.
Bigot? Could be, but maybe not.
Fascist? Let's discuss the history of various political movements...
Just look at how gleeful ole Buster was arguing about the definition of racist in the previous thread.
Trump has made a campaign out of no ideas and no competence and crazy talk. At this point, he is his own label and brand and ideology: Trumpism really is a thing.
But I do think that diving down any rhetorical rabbit hole in this campaign is a win for Trump.
