Lou Dobbs: Trump Should ‘Connect Back’ | Talking Points Memo

But, you know, Mr. and Mrs. America who live on streets all over this country in middle class neighborhoods and neighborhoods that aspire to be middle class. That’s who his people are.

But not the ones who are living on the streets because they can’t afford housing. They’re just SOL.

Giving huge tax cuts to the wealthy doesn’t ingratiate middle class people to your side. I thought you were a “business” expert, Lou.

he “sees more corporate CEOs parading out of that White House than I ever thought possible under this President.”

I am not sure in which alternate reality is Lou Dobbs is living

"Dobbs then called on Trump to “connect back” with the middle class.’

Try connecting with the middle class at all. Then he can ‘connect back’ you misogynist, racist creep.

Shorter Dobbs: Mr. President, Sir, you’ve got to get back to having rallies where everyone gets to shout your favorite slogans and hiss and boo at their enemies – the press, Obama, Clinton, and anyone who pissed you off this morning – so they will stop worrying that you’re doing something stupid.

Note the chyron text in the screen grab. Fair and balanced!

I love the fiction that Trump is just a regular guy, rather than an incompetent clown who inherited obscene amounts of money and an enabling organization (starting with Roy Cohn), and who failed repeatedly to create his own businesses, losing much of his wealth in the process. He only ran for president to get some of it back.

You know, I wavered between “hair” and “teeth” for Ghouliani, but decided to go for “hair” instead.

Great minds and all that… :rofl:

I’d settle for Trump connecting with reality.

Dobbs added that he “sees more corporate CEOs parading out of that White House than I ever thought possible under this President.”

Funny how GOP presidents always surround themselves with rich people who want to raid the Treasury.

Pretty sure Trump is already connecting again with the people who put him in the White House. They just happen to go by the name Putin.

Back when Obama was president Dobbs and some of his awful ilk in the business press would complain that he didn’t have enough CEO’s at the White House.
And his feigning concern for the middle class rings hollow.
As usual it’s opposite land with these folks.

When Dobbs means “middle class” he means “white.”

Donald needs to connect back to, or should I just say to, reality first.

When did Agolf become [un]connected from his fascist base?

Ok…I think it’s red.

You mean the middle class people that voted for Clinton. She did win the popular vote and without Russia’s and the FBI’s help. The people tRump should be able to connect with are the ones he made richer with his tax cut but apparently the only reason they hold their noses and tolerate him is because he makes them richer. But still, he can’t connect with them because they think he’s a moron.
