And CNN. Maybe not all "official" buttons, but those were made to sincerely support the candidates. Was the Obama one fake as in made long after the fact just for use in a meme, I honestly have no idea, though I doubt that.
This racist crap has gone way too far. All the Trump supporters I know don't want anything to do with the KKK, Nazi's or white supremacists. We don't want to hang with them, they want to hang with us and tarnish us in the process. It all began with Carter who stated point blank just days after Obama's election that the primary reason anyone would oppose Obama was because he was black. And went further later on.
"I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he's African American," Carter said.
So let's return the favor and hang the Bernie supporter that shot all the repubs and cops at that practice ball game (and Antifa) with Bernie and (Hillary by default) and dems in the same way Trump and repubs are with the KKK, et al. Fair is fair.
So repubs are racist killers and dems are murderous assassins at heart. That is where we are.
CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer made a disturbing comment about the suspected terrorist attack in Barcelona, Spain, on Thursday.
“Yeah, there will be questions about copycats,” Blitzer said. “There will be questions if what happened in Barcelona was at all — at all — a copycat version of what happened in Charlottesville, Virginia, even though there may be different characters, different political ambitions. They used the same killing device: A vehicle going at high speed into a group, a large group of pedestrians.”
Howard Dean? Is he relevant to anyone other than you? (I guess he still is to some people - at least MSNBC seems to think so) Those are obviously not officially-produced campaign buttons, they were pretty much debunked years ago The Obama one is an obvious fake, as is the Hillary one.

Other than the matchbook (which could have been bulk-printed by anyone in runs of 500 for about $9.00), the buttons (none of which feature a Confederate battle flag) all have the union mark at the lower center. That penny looks pretty dodgy though.
Howard Dean: If You Vote GOP, You're Voting for a Racist in the White House
Oh yeah ? If that's the case, then why was it cool for the Democrats to sport the Stars and Bars up until a couple of weeks earlier and no said and in fact no one has yet said one word about it. By former DNC Chair Mr Dean's own logic, if you voted for Obama or Clinton, you're racist and a hypocrite. Go ahead and bite me. This shit is going too far.

It’s important to note that there is no indicator that these buttons were actually made and distributed by the actual Clinton-Gore campaign.
One indicator that it isn’t official is that it lacks a union “bug,” the little marker showing that a piece of campaign material was printed in a union shop. If you look at other Clinton-Gore buttons, nearly all — but not all — have a bug somewhere.

This is a great behind-the-scenes look at Steve Bannon's presence in and departure from the White House. It's interesting that while Trump, Preibus and Sessions have complained about leaks coming from career government officials hostile to Trump ("the Deep State"), Trump himself suspected that Bannon was leaking information.

4) The "other teams" are even weaker
It's early days yet. I think the Democrats will get their act together to do well in 2018 and 2020. It's not clear to me at all how Trump can recover support and turn things around, especially when he's busy destroying his relationships with Republicans in Congress and with big business. The primary reasons Trump is failing as President are his personality and modus operandi and those aren't going to change.
Neither party has a chapter in their playbook detailing an effective strategy for dealing with a pathological liar, reckless sociopath, and demagogue of Trump's magnitude.
Hasn't been a contingency requiring preparation...until now.
Novak's points seem lifted from the 2016 campaign. Trump is all about image over substance, true, but he has to accomplish things—perhaps not for his own popularity with his supporters, but for the GOP candidates who may get reamed in 2018 elections if they can't point to legislation. Novak seems convinced that Trump can change his polarizing, self-destructive ways and get things done but I see no evidence of that.
Novak's points:
1) Trump wins when he loses—in other words, his base is energized by criticism of and opposition to Trump.
True, but I don't think he's going to win anything with his current levels of support. Gallup pegs confidence in Trump at 35%. Another poll (Marist, I think) shows Republicans' confidence in Trump falling 6 points over the last month.
2) The stock selloff fake out
Trump's voter base is hardly represented by Wall Street or major corporate interests.
I can't recall many if any pundits pointing to stock market movements as sign of eroding business/investor confidence in Trump. If they are, I would agree with Novak that those movements are likely a false and rather insignificant indicator. Right now, the political and financial worlds are divorced from each other. The NY Times recently ran an article summarizing attitudes on Wall Street as dismissive and inattentive of the chaos in DC.
3) Poll position
In other words, just about every poll on President Trump is probably under counting his support.
Novak primarily leans on the idea that people polled about their opinions of Trump are withholding their true feelings of support due to concerns about the social acceptability of supporting Trump but IIRC pollsters dismissed that reluctance as a factor in explaining polls skewing away from Trump. Trump's supporters aren't shy about supporting him, especially now that he's President.
