Except Trumps rhetoric has accelerated it.
You throw that out as the culmination of conclusions supporting some position using some evidence that you haven't provided.
And for that conclusion to matter...for there to be any validity to that claim, certain assumptions have to be made.
First, you have to assume that some member of the public anywhere really cares about what any political figure say, it all sounds like rhetoric unless you believe it enough to have an opinion about it. I don't. I come to no conclusions based on any ability I might think I have - the ability to know what's in someone else's heart - if I can help it. If I can't weigh it, smell it, or measure it, I don't consider it in my conclusions. Actions speak louder than words, sticks and stones, and yada yada yada. It's all lies, all day every day and twice on Sunday.
Then, you have to also assume that results are what some people ONLY use to determine the worth of their appointed representative. I'm one of those. I look at what's been done and I approve. I thought the lack of emphasis on jobs prior to this administration was disturbing and that business wasn't being a priority, because I believe that the most important thing a government can provide is, a right that if a citizen within their sphere of influence wants to work, they have the best chance gov can provide to do so. Secondary, I think the government should be providing, to the best of it's ability, opportunities within their sphere of influence. I think that's a right of it's citizens. Evidence of the gov's priorities for those highest of rights, and others as recognized, should determine what the approval level for that government is. For this world to be perfect, people need jobs and opportunity, and I start there.
All of which serves as at least a valid conclusion for those that disagree with your assertion to have. At that point, you'll need to provide evidence that supports your conclusion. Measure the effect of Trump's rhetoric and provide citations and bring the results back to this discussion... or you're just spreading rhetoric yourself.
