You mean stuff like this:

> And bear in mind that our Hurricane Dikta is one of the _reasonable Republicans_.

> In very general terms, Democratic party voters want to have thoughtful solutions to the many problems in the country. …

> Republican voters, on the other hand, value winning and strength first and foremost. Winning the game (and it is a game) is everything. They like simplistic solutions to complex problems - sometimes because they really don’t understand the complexity, and solutions that look at multiple points of view confuse them and make them feel stupid. Give them a simple soundbite every time. It really does not matter how you win, because the whole point is to win. Lies and attacks are OK with these voters. In fact, as we have seen recently, baseless attacks, name calling and juvenile language coming from the White House is celebrated. These voters like bullies. This is called “strength”.
