By Seung Min Kim and Seung Min Kim White House reporter Email Bio Follow Toluse Olorunnipa Toluse Olorunnipa White House reporter Email Bio Follow April 15 at 8:38 PM President Trump escalated his attacks on a Muslim member of Congress and “Radical Left Democrats” on Monday ahead of a reelection campaign that is quickly taking shape around divisive messages centered on immigration and patriotism.
The dueling Trumps on Tax Day highlighted a parallel dynamic at play ahead of his reelection bid: While the broader GOP apparatus is attempting to focus on the economy, the campaigner in chief is seizing on more confrontational messages that may appeal to the base but potentially turn off swing voters.
Meanwhile, officials at the National Republican Senatorial Committee released a colorful video set to peppy music that touted the benefits of the GOP tax law, while the group’s chairman, Sen. Todd C. Young , co-wrote an op-ed that celebrated “higher wages, record economic optimism, record low unemployment” thanks to Republican policies.He began his day with a 6:29 a.m.
The president added: “We can retake the House, I think, over this issue . . . As soon as we do, we’re going to get this straightened out.” Murtaugh added, “Like millions of Americans, the president found Rep. Omar’s comments on Jews and remarks belittling the 9/11 attacks to be offensive.”
Keep reporting the truth. Trump is a disease we need to take out of power.. pray for our survival and vote the bastard out.
That's your opinion. That's not reporting or journalism. 100% bias
While Ds are just playing to their base? Democracy dies when journalists choose sides.
Trump's strategy to win in 2020 is to use racism, anger, fear and you incite violence. This isn't a surprise. It's how fascists have done things every time.
Oops! OPINION: Trump focuses on divisive messages etc. There. FixedIt YoureWelcome
But the 'totally morally superior' Democrats have messages that are unifying? BTW, an appropriate journalistic headline would eliminate the editorializing word 'divisive'. You're supposed to report the facts and let the readers decide how they feel about the facts.
And, this is why WP has no readers.
The CollusionDelusion lie, the JussieSmollett lie, the Kavanaugh Lie, and everything else FakeNews lies about & promotes incessantly has brought more division than almost any other entity on the planet! You will be fully exposed & face God's justice. EnemyOfThePeople
Soap opera POTUS.
Lies
Dishonest, despicable, depraved behavior, by our 'elected by a minority' sad excuse for a President! Will he learn to lead or trade America for a Tower in Russia?
All he has to do is follow BS around again.
Did you say focuses?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Trump is seeding the Ideology of jihadism _ hate and Terrorist Demand
Are you serious right now? The only 'news' would be if he didn't. DoBetter
Yeah, um, no shit
Like immigration? Like the out of control and corrupt government he inherited? Democrats claim they aren't divisive and will unify the country but then they speak.
National Security issues are not divisive.
Our lame, Democrat-run Media does nothing but instigate division.☹️
All of TheDemocrats running for POTUS are going to run divisive campaigns
WP continues to sow racial division and hatred
4am propaganda talking point
He’s not dividing anyone it’s you folks trying hard with this Bullshit narrative. Haters
That’s right and I love it.🖕
Whens the first Dem debate? I wonder what his nicknames will be...
When realDonaldTrump goes low, we go HIGH
Just disgusting
Well, he is a one-trick pony. No one doesn’t know his “message.” Stop reporting it over and over again for him.
What a joke. The media has been attacking the President and calling him all kinds of names and espousing all types of horrible rhetoric about his policies, etc for two years. By your own measures you are being divisive and spreading hatred.
Check his hand signals!!
Nobody is buying your lies. The only division comes from the left.
We will not participate. So don’t cover it. That’s how this shit show gets shut down. Resistance
He only knows how to divide.
He’s going All In on the Base & Race
The Washington post is now just another outlet for the libera echo chamber
We're hearing 'divisive' dialog from the Left , is WP going to report on that too..? MSM
That's just how studip you are homie you going to jail
The shape of a sewer.
👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍You call it divisive, millions call it telling it the way it is
All he knows how to do is campaign. All he has done as president is campaign for 2020. He's incapable of governing. Attack. Attack. Attack. It's all he is capable of doing.
Americans are not giving you four more years of evil
😂 Lowest unemployment in 50 years. 3+% GDP. 😂😂😂😂😂
And you’re surprised because?
And Dems don’t? One of KamalaHarris’s central campaign message is literally “America is racist, homophobic, and every other phobic imaginable - vote for me!”
So like any other day?
Divisive to Americans Is not divisive to his base For Commies love nepotism For them, talent has no place
Messages? He’s just someone saying something 🤣🤣🤣
He doesn’t grasp the concept of being the President of the United States versus the President of Republicans
Keep failing Wapo at trying to drive your false and biased message. Keep digging that hole deeper. The public laughs at you. You're just a tabloid now.
Well he's nothing if not consistent. Which could prove to be his eventual downfall if someone plays their cards right.
“Brown people are coming to kill you”: take two
