Why can’t Trump campaign on the real issues facing America rather than insulting the character of VP Harris? Does MAGA actually believe this tactic will work?

While in social media, it is too easy for Trump to laugh and forward vulgar and demeaning photographs, cartoons, memes, and screenshots. The recent photo of Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris with a superimposed reference to the consequences of blowjobs is just such a wallowing in the gutter. While infrequent and well-targeted use of vulgarity and cuss words catches our attention, a steady diet of juvenile vulgarity should grow old quickly in a presidential race. In the end, tweets, vulgar and humorous memes, rambling speeches, and the same tired vocabulary show that Trump is not a highly educated person and does not listen to a broad or deep range of broadcast content.
There are multiple reasons why Trump does not deal with real issues, ignorance being a huge one.
In addition to making him far less learned, not reading widely makes him overly dependent upon social media, the quick responsive message, often given without much thought or scrutiny by others. While he does not have a huge base of knowledge upon which to draw, he can respond in record time and to millions. The downside of social media is that the level of his discourse can sink to inaccuracy, pettiness, vulgarity, internet memes, humor created by others, and other communication that is not filtered through the usual or formal formats.
Simply put, Trump is an ignoramus with many simplistic ideas.
Trump Does Not Read Much. Trump processes information orally. This means he does not gather much information and reveals his ignorance when talking. Trump did not read the reports prepared for him as president. Narcissists are easily bored. He admits to a short attention span and gets much of his information from television. Trump does not read books. Reading books and reports requires sustained attention. Maybe Trump dislikes reading because dyslexia makes it too difficult, or he cannot sustain attention long enough. He is probably a hyperactive dyslexic and a poor reader. He needs reading glasses but is too vain to wear them in public.
When pressed in the debate to justify the alleged dogs and cats eaten in Springfield, Ohio, what did Trump say? He said he saw it on television! Trump’s reference to immigrants eating dogs and cats shows his lack of knowledge and poor information sources. Wherever he got that information, it was not a reliable source. For all his talk about “fake news,” he appears vulnerable to it. This shows his knowledge base and sources for information are flimsy, untrustworthy, and not filtered through diligent campaign aides. The Woodward Trilogy makes clear The Donald does not often take advice.
Is the Democrat party connected with organized crime in America?
