"Him".....

If I were the President's speech man..... meaning his Peggy Noonan. His Paul Begala. His Sam Seabourn (c'mon Libs, be impressed with me for that last one)....

I'd have two Trump supporters, one with red hat.....sitting next to. Yes, next to the First Lady.

He'd look right into the camera into people's eyes and say quietly, solemnly.....

"I know that half our country supports Donald Trump and hey man, that's America. That's all right.

I'm glad that the Affordable Care Act - gives health care to millions of Americans in Texas and Florida.

I'm proud that our CHIPS act has semiconductor factories being built in Ohio, and Americans are getting good paying jobs with benefits. And helping us beat China like a drum on the future of computers and technology.

I'm proud that Americans from Alabama to Arkansas, from Michigan to Georgia- Americans are building back our schools and roads, our bridges and airports - and getting good paying jobs from it. Jobs that can't be sent to Mexico or China.

Look, you can support Donald Trump, I respect your right to do that. But we don't have to hate each other.

Tonight, sitting next to the First Lady is John Smith.....John's a great American, and a Trump supporter. I'm proud that John, and millions of Americans like him can now afford insulin for diabetes without having to cut back on groceries or other stuff. John, you're a Trump supporter but I'm proud we came together on this insulin thing. (Now there's applause.....Red-Hat-John stands, salutes towards the President)

See my friends - we can be on opposite sides but we don't have to hate each other. John can vote for whomever he wants but on his insulin......I've got his back as long as I'm President..... (now the voice gets louder, stronger)...looking back into the camera"

NO MATTER WHO YOU SUPPORT, WHEN IT COMES TO CHEAPER MEDICINE FOR YOU AND YOUR KIDS, I'VE GOT YOUR BACK.

NO MATTER WHO YOU SUPPORT, WHEN IT COMES TO SOCIAL SECURITY,AND YOUR RETIREMENT, I'VE GOT YOUR BACK.

NO MATTER WHO YOU SUPPORT, WHERN IT COMES TO YOUR OLDER PARENT'S MEDICARE.....I'VE GOT YOUR BACK.

(By this time, half the chamber is yelling "I've got your back" with the President....and the split screen - is really shitty for one side)

SO LET'S HAVE OUR ELECTION......BUT AS LONG AS I'M PRESIDENT, I'VE GOT YOUR BACK.

****

I really think "I've got your back" combined with kitchen table issues - is frigging powerful. And having the MAGA supporter next to the First Lady? Openly saying they disagree, but being courteous to each other? Shit.....you'd hear much of America's panties dropping so fast they'd dig a hole to China.


As a lifelong wannabe Politico - I think this is the way to go.

Taxing Private Jets? Stock buybacks? LGBTQ they/them/he/she? Ignore that crap and do this instead.

I am not stating a preference for a candidate - I'm just playing my usual fantasizing game that I used to really ennjoy on TMF with a few Fools from my side and from the Left also.

Why would a Trump supporter agree to that? If they're an actual Trump supporter, they're not going to agree to help Biden as a prop in his speech.

How many Trump supporters are out there?

Amazing you can speak for ALL of them.

And that there would not be *one* exception.

LOL - the most eloquent amongst us - contribute to the mayhem :)

But hey, so do I.

Welcome aboard.

BTW (to the academics - real world and real people don't count. ) but still....

I voted Trump in 2016.

I'm leaning Trump in 2024.

If I was called, I'd gladly stand up and say "I support you on Affordable Care Act" as publicly as anyone wanted.

So, I guess there is ONE who is willing to do that.

Let's see if the Campus and Student Union and Law Quad and Symposium can admit they were wrong.....

Sheesh, Reminds me why many go Trump even if its against their own interests.
