    People need to realise it’s not all Trump. He is the face of an organisation. He is a spokesperson. Yes he has power but he is not some puppetmaster pulling all of these strings.

      Yes, but saying “Trump” is shorter and often clearer than “the loosely defined group of people of which Trump is the spokesman”

        That’s fair, I just hate this idea that he’s some mastermind behind everything that’s happening, when really he’s just an old, weak man who says words that right wingers love.
