The purpose seems to be twofold. One, he is a narcissist, and it may upset him, which is neat. The more important one is to not trigger people's emotional response to Trump, and talk about specific policies and issues close to home. People mention Trump and their critical thinking skills get replaced with extreme anger or misplaced love.

This! Everything you say on the internet can be read and scraped by bots. If things go full naz1 they could criminalize anyone for saying anything. Don't give them key words to easily search for. Use 1337 speak if necessary.

I inferred the goal was to accurately place blame on the entire party. If this ever ends, we don't want the Republican party to be like "oh yeah that guy was crazy but you can trust us."

The Republican party should never be trusted again.

i mean, you'd have to be an idiot to have to be told that.

Republican voters are often idiots, so that checks out.

Yeah, after Trump's first term when everyone referred to him as "T****"... that shit didn't work at all.

He henceforth shall be called "The liar".

It's just virtue signaling. It's about letting other know how much you hat Trump.

It is childish.
