I actually do want to say something, though, about what Isabel said and what Noel said before.
I think the great triumph of the speech was a negative triumph.
I think that he did bring it back into the center of our attention, how crazy and bad
the Democrats are and will be again if they get back in office.
He made them act it out.
It was brilliant theater.
It was great stuff.
The positive message is going to be harder because the positive message means that people have to feel it in their pocketbooks because they're never, ever going to see it in the mainstream press.
The press has practiced inducing amnesia.
The minute Trump solves a problem, it vanishes from the news.
The minute the border is closed, nobody talks about the border anymore.
They just always leap in to the next big problem.
Oh, isn't the way people are being deported terrible?
And that's been the trick that they've used, and it's been pretty effective.
But I think at some point, at some point, people are going to stop and take a breath and say,
Are things really worse?
And do I want these people back?
He set up the negative really well tonight.
I don't think any words are going to accomplish the positive message that he wants to put forward.
I think that's going to have to happen over time.
