The problem with fighting against Trump is that he is essentially running on a platform of magic. All our problems will be solved easily through his superior negotiating skills.
He will fix illegal immigration by getting Mexico to build a big wall. He will save Social Security by getting China to send back all those jobs pumping up the economy and tax base. He will just get Iran to give us a better nuke deal because reasons. He has a simple magical solution for everything. And apparently a good chunk of GOPers believe it because he is rich and successful so sure he can do it. How do you argue against something like that?
When you have a party, and really, a whole political system that it based on equally nonsensical premises it becomes pretty difficult. Trump's schtick is pointing out that the Emperor and his whole court are a little on the threadbare side. That would be easy to stomp out, if the Emperor & Co were wearing any clothes.
Couldn't ever have said it in any better terms/words/you name it. Basically: The emperor has no clothes.
