Horror novelist Stephen King boiled down President Donald Trump’s campaign message for the November midterms to just two words on Twitter Monday night.
And they are: “Be afraid.”
Donald Trump’s campaign message in two words: Be afraid.

King, who on Sunday bashed Trump for his latest baseless attack on immigrants, also coined his own campaign message to counter Trump’s fearmongering pitch to vote Republican.
“Be brave,” he wrote.
The bestselling writer’s tweet was well received online:
Perfect. Bravery trumps fear any day of the week. Pun intended.

Everything he does is to stoke fear in his base. And they react. Knowledge is the best defense against fear.

If you run against him in 2020 (if he makes it that long), you will have my vote. Nothing you could do would be scarier than what Trump has already done.
