2/ At a time when postmodern political theorists—who in the waning years of that paradigm have come to love bipolar dialectics, which see polar-opposite forces contend with one another until one is destroyed—were calling Trump's followers "angry," I called them "angry optimists." — PolitiTweet.org

1/ When I first began writing academic articles about Trump in June 2015, I posited that he'd be appealing to many folks because—instinctively, not in a reflexive way—his paradoxical juxtapositions of opposing tendencies represent the darkest end of our current metamodern moment. — PolitiTweet.org

3/ Trump's power lies in his contradictions. He can occupy many different tones, personalities, and perspectives at once and not be tied to any one of them. Though he's told 25,000+ lies to American voters, there are *also* times he's more bracingly candid than any US politician. — PolitiTweet.org
