Pandering, thats your morning dish of scrambled politics. Jane timm is here, good morning. Good morning. Even for donald trump his attacks against the clnts have gotten a little bit more scathing. Whats different about his latest tirades . Theyre not just personal hes really attacking her for her leadership in the middle east and wars and with some selective history hes blaming her yesterday for unseating Saddam Hussein which was a policy put in place long before clinton took that role as secretary of state. Hes going after the fears that americans have, a warweary country and saying, you know, this is her fault. Lets blame her for this. If he can make it stick i think it could be potent. This what fueled his rise. Going after fears indeed, and hes going to be doing that in a new ad. What exactly are we going to see here . These ads are very us versus them, playing into the deep, darkest fears. The most xenophobic feelings the country might have, saying this is what the election is about, user this success them and im the guy you want defending us. These are pretty intense ads and going straight for Hillary Clinton as we said earlier instead of going for the primary, that works for donald trump and looks like hes the winner already even if its just his own narration thats telling him that it certainly has been work so long far. Now we have president obama going after gun violence, taking his fight directly to the people, bypassing congress. Whats your take on this . Id say that president owe pa ma sort of failure to get gun control through Congress Years ago after newtown is maybe his key regret and i think hesing if to push Everything Possible can he get through with executive action.
