Barnicle: Trump’s an ‘Expert’ in White Male Resentment’

‘That is what he did yesterday, spectacularly successful’

EXCERPT:

BARNICLE: “Of course he did. Of course he did, Joe. And it plays exactly to Donald Trump’s strength. As we’ve said many times in this program and elsewhere, the one thing he is an expert in is resentment, and specifically in this case, white male resentment. So he’s using it, he used it yesterday to further the cause of his candidates of conservatism and of whatever else he has in his mind. We don’t know what else is on his mind. We don’t want to know what is on his mind. But this is the first time in the lifetime of this country, Joe, that we have a president of the United States who literally, almost every day, takes to the country in order to divide the country. That is what he did yesterday, spectacularly successful. And Heidi, he does it this time, for the first time again, I think, in history, with a complete cooperation or at least complicit silence of an entire party, the Republican Party, especially in the United States Senate."
