By dismissing Donald Trump and J.D. Vance as 'weird,' the Democrats have defanged Republicans' campaign of fear — and started to drive GOP leaders crazy.
Democrats may have finally found their magical talisman: One word to rule them all, one word to find them, one word to bring them all and in the darkness bind them. And that word is 'weird.' Last week, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz went viral with his observation that former president and current GOP nominee Donald Trump and his running mate J.D. Vance are “just weird.
As Trump and many of his supporters have made clear, they admire authoritarians, including Vladimir Putin and North Korea’s Kim Jong Un — 'I think he misses me,” Trump said at the Republican National Convention — as figures of strength. Trump has always campaigned on fear: of undocumented immigrants, “demolished” suburbs, restrictive gun laws, transgender children. There is power in fear. In ridicule, not so much. “Weird” takes fear out of the equation.
