“Democratic strategists are absorbing a big lesson from their electoral success this month — stay focused on economic issues and refuse to play on President Trump’s turf,” Bloomberg reports.

“Democrats largely ignored Trump’s provocations about the caravan of refugees in Mexico and a call to end birthright citizenship, and didn’t engage with most of his inflammatory talk delivered through a string of campaign rallies. Instead they focused on health care and economics.”

1. Did someone tweet something?

I don't know -- moving on, then...

2. ? I don't understand. Do you mean Trump? Maybe we could have alternative Trump

tweets. Whenever he tweets some conedian would put up a spoof and people could follow that instead.

3. Shun tRump

As much as possible. Psychologists working with victims of malignant narcissts alway recommend the victim follow the No Contact rule. If you must be in their presence act like a grey, inert rock. IOW, Do not feed the tRump Troll(s).

I turn off any program where I have to listen to him and only read vicariously as much as I have to know about him. Thank the FSM for DU. Because of DU, I can know what's going on without having to give any more audience or attention to him than I have to.

Thanks for all you fellow DUer's who are willing to keep watch on him so I don't have to.

4. Ignoring the Rump has been a good strategy since 2015

Everyone should just pretend he doesn't exist. Give him a TV that plays Hannity reruns and a fake twitter account that doesn't actually post. Just leave him in his room till it's time for him to be arrested.

5. I think that's gonna be near impossible when Trump is on the ballot and you're in an election with..

him. Ignoring him for the midterms is effective because he’s not actually on the ballot.
