What the author fails to grasp is that the “context” from which the claim “It’s not fair!” originates informs people’s reactions. If the person saying “It’s not fair!” is losing then the public thinks it’s just sour grapes. Now if someone is beating the competition like a drum and says “It’s not fair!” people will give them the benefit of the doubt.
Or the public will think they are a spoiled brat.
Good post. All the talk of unfair from Trump is about us the voters being treated unfairly. Trump himself is still the forerunner by far, but we the voters are treated unfairly when our individual votes are negated by some elite GOPe “rules”.
I used to wonder why the GOPe had such trouble welcoming new voters. It is amazing that now with so many attracted to their candidate they want to alienate them. Seems like the GOPe wants to remain an exclusive little party that can’t win.
They have proven since 2014 that when they do win they let us down with lies. Go Trump! Fix the party, fix America.
