This guy is actively antagonizing those voters and only appealing to his die hards who are going to vote for him anyway but won't get him across the line. It's bizarre and I'm surprised that the GOP seem fine with it.
He hasnt a clue what else to do, this is all he knows, the GOP and Trump was just counting on a good economy carrying them through, they never had a plan B, it was always 'count on angry older white folks turning out in droves while keeping the independents and moderates happy enough they dont bother voting either way'.
