Jennings on Trump Calling Harris ‘Dumb’: ‘There’s a Method to the Madness’

EXCERPT:

JENNINGS: "Yeah, I don‘t think it would be wise to do that at the debate. And yes, of course, there‘ll be some voters turned off by that. On the other hand, Trump has some appeal and some need to talk to politically disengaged people who are probably not all that offended by crass, blunt talk like that. And you‘re trying to draw them in, trying to make meme-able content, trying to get them to consume this in short soundbites. As we know, there are a bunch of voters in this country, or maybe non-voters who he wants to make voters, that might pick up on something like this. So I think there‘s a method to the madness, but you do — you know, when you squeeze the balloon on one end, it pops on the other, and so there is a trade-off. So, some will not like it. There may be a cohort out there that like the blunt talk, and that‘s what he‘s betting on."
