It seems pretty clear that he’s narcissistic, it’s not like his behavior has all of the sudden changed when he had a shot at being the presidential candidate. So I would say the motive is always to keep the spotlight on him and to bully others. He doesn’t want to be viewed as weak so he’s always on the attack. It’s not some well thought out strategy but it’s working with his base because a lot of them agree with that strategy. It’s the terrible way of thinking that you are manly and strong by picking on others, when in actuality you are insecure. I mean there are a lot of things behind his rise but each party invokes the name of the other party to convey negative feelings. I mean I heard my father call something communist, it actually wasn’t but that word is used by Republicans mean something that is bad. It’s an odd time in US politics, and you can see that the actual Conservative Republicans are stepping aside from their real views and values because it doesn’t matter as long as their team is winning, even if their leader loves Russia and is actively pushing the US towards authoritarianism. That was sort of a rambling comment, but it’s just so odd to me that hate can be amplified so easily now a days. It’s been good to see the fight for equality lately with BLM, equality is a very American value (despite us needing to go so much further in that regard). But we have a President saying there are good racists out there and how we need to preserve the Confederacy. It makes no sense.
