Michelle Goldberg: Trump’s ‘Just Trying to Keep His Supporters in a Hermetically Sealed Chamber of Terror and Lies’

‘He’s not really trying to convince anyone’

EXCERPT:

GOLDBERG: "He's not really trying to convince anyone. He just trying to keep his rabid supporters in a hermetically sealed chamber of terror and lies. And the question is whether people who are outside that chamber are kind of sufficiently repelled to go out and vote against him. I’m here in Georgia, which is one place that could potentially do that. It’s astonishing that the Democratic candidate, an African American Progressive woman is running even close to the kind of Trump clone who is running for governor against her. And so, and could very well win. So there is a backlash against Trump. But at the same time, he has managed to create this entire parallel world in which a lot of his followers don’t really have to contend with any kind of contrary information and can believe that these bedraggled migrants who are going to arrive at the boarder in a month or so are some sort of invading army."
