Trump himself LOVES attacks from the left, he feeds off of twisting them to his advantage.

Also, the persuadable people don't like it when attacks go beyond humor to being mean. Heck, I don't like it. Mocking is one thing. Name-calling is another.

Persuasion is part of the work we have ahead of us. We NEED millions (8.5 million) to get out on the street to oppose Trump (3.5% of our nation's population) to participate in sustained, nonviolent resistance – the threshold at which there is a strong probability of significant political change, including the potential to topple dictatorships – and that inevitable includes persuadable people and Never Trumpers.
