They should refer to him as convicted felon Donald Trump every time they use his name. Put it all in his face at every turn. Bring up old shit tie it all together and air it all but above all lean into the convicted felon part.

Swing voters and undecideds do. A significant number of people have said they won’t vote for him again if he got convicted.

If you’re undecided about whether you think Trump or Biden are better leaders in an election at this time, I think news of Trumps conviction isn’t going to sway you. Sorry for sounding so jaded but I just can’t fathom this swaying anyone. I personally don’t understand those people.

it's not his supporters who need to hear it on repeat.

it's the 30% of people who don't decide until they go into the voting box, who claim to dislike both sides etc.

Twice impeached, convicted felon and rapist, Donald Trump.

We need to call him a rapist as often as possible. He has done some truly awful shit, but on a basic human level I think this is the worst. He was found by a court of law to have raped a woman. And based on Stormy Daniel’s latest account of their weird consensual sex, Carroll was almost certainly not the only person he raped.

He is an adjudicated rapist.
