I think it is wise for Trump to attack Hillary and the corrupt system rather than attacking Hillary supporters and labeling them as racists like Hillary does for Trump supporters. Trump isn't alienating Hillary supporters by attacking Hillary and the corrupt system, he is for the American people.
Scott Adams goes over it well in his recent blog
Quote
Trump has built his brand around the idea that he will protect legal American citizens of all types – who he loves – against bad people in other countries. Trump is saying he’s on Team America. Period.
But Clinton just insulted 40% of American voters by calling them racists. Clinton literally – and publicly – turned on her own citizens.
Trump, by contrast, has attacked only professionals who are in the cage fight against him, including politicians on both sides, and the media. Judge Curiel is a professional (in a legal battle context). The reporter with the bad arm is a professional. Mr. Khan was acting as a professional because he entered the cage, armed. If you’re a professional – and can defend yourself – Trump doesn’t mind coming after you with a flamethrower.
But Clinton’s Alt-Right speech did not target professionals. Clinton attacked American citizens. Lots of them.
I’m also a professional in this context because I’m writing about politics. If Clinton criticizes me, that’s fair game. I knew what I was getting into. But if she goes after ordinary voters, that’s crossing a line. It is divisive to the point of treason. She crossed that line with the Alt-Right speech. If Trump lets that slide, it’s a mistake. I don’t think he will.
