...Most undecided people hate, "bullies." Most of us hate bullies. We have always hated people who
bully other people, and that is who Donald Trump is. Trump is a bully.
That is the word that will convince some undecided people to vote against Trump. We all know Trump is a bully, and that word is........."the word"...I have used it many times in the last few years here at
Democratic Underground to describe Trump, but when you try to convince others not to vote for Trump...
.....that is the word everyone knows and dislikes..(except other bullies)..Got a friend or relative who isn't sure about their vote...That word may sway that person to either vote for Biden, not vote for Trump..or just stay away from voting...Keep in mind only those in favor of Trump would need to be swayed from not voting for him.
YES, TRUMP IS NOW A BULLY, WAS A BULLY AND WILL ALWAYS BE A BULLY....!!!!!!!!!!

I do think that avoiding "issues" and concentrating on him-- "he's a bully. He's authoritarian." is best. The stance on "issues," after all, changes whenever he changes his mind. So "he's racked up $6 trillion more in debt in three years" doesn't resound with them because debt is no longer important.
But-- does it bother you that he bullies people? That he demands everyone obey him? That might remind them that they used to be capable of independent thought, and they might miss that some day.

(7,431 posts)Tell Trumpers that their almighty leader's plans of eliminating their Social Security checks in 2.5 years. Tell it loud and clearly: Trump is eliminating Social Security checks. For those retired or near retirement, they'll know that, for all of those years that they paid into their SS accounts, it will all be gone by 2023 if Trumpy-Boy gets re-elected. OH. And one more thing. They'll also lose Medicare, just to spread frosting on their survival cupcakes.
So, Trumpy-Boy can be the BULLY who will impoverish millions with the stroke of a pen. That will make Trumpers very happy. Until THEY lose their checks and their medical insurance.
Never go after Social Security and expect to stay in office. If voters are given enough information about what trump is really doing with the payroll tax shenanigans, he's toast. Dems should be screaming about this every single day.

(38,421 posts)Yes, coward might be more powerful, but bully is the best word in my opinion. You want something that
hits home with someone who you are trying to convince. Hits in the heart, not the head...
I believe.."bully" is that word. And it really does hit home in a way the other words don't. Yes, I remember being bullied a very long time ago, and I am not the only one who remembers and feels that. And that is what Trump does and has always done. It is the strongest word for this purpose...To get to someone's heart in order to get him to think about not voting for Donald Trump....and most important:
That word is total truth,..That is who Donald Trump is, was, and will always be...."a bully"
