Sunday on CNN’ “Fareed Zakaria GPS,” Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel said President Donald Trump strategy was to keep his base “on amphetamines,” which was to say also “highly charged.”

Emanuel said, “Their strategy is very straightforward: get their voters, and keep them on amphetamines, highly charged. I’m not sure in where the battlegrounds for Congress are, the battlegrounds are for the statehouses. That’s going to be an electoral strategy for success up and down the Republican ticket. And I think it’s not just a strategy; there’s a set of policy decisions that are slowly but surely alienating persuadable voters.”
