Even a dumb jock (Redick is not a dumb jock) has figured out Trump's modus operandi: "Every tweet of his is meant to divide, every tweet is meant to incite, every tweet is meant to embolden his base." The media don't have to analyze Trump's tweets for hidden meanings or deep subtleties. Redick has it right: Division, incitement, and encouraging his lizard-brain base. That's it. If a tweet doesn't fit one particular category, it will fit one of the other two.

Just say that.
