Republican candidate Donald Trump regularly says that, if elected President, he will make major changes in healthcare, jobs, inflation, foreign wars, and other policies. His wide range of proposals, which get extensive media attention in the United States, are aimed at different groups of voters and campaign donors. For instance, he is trying to win the votes of suburban women by saying the legality of abortions is a state issue and not a decision to be made by the president.
The media also report about conservative groups, who support Trump, but oppose his proposal. Usually the same day, Trump’s campaign staff issue clarifications which dilute, or even reverse, his policy change proposals, often saying it was misrepresented by the media.
Apparently, such confusion is intentional: Trump seeks to secure votes and donations from those who blindly hope he will change policies while simultaneously reassuring his base of voters that there will be minimal, if any, policy changes.
This sequence of events played out again this week during Trump’s visit to Silicon Valley, California, where he raised $12 million for his campaign.
