That's why hedging, half saying things, and shifting around to satisfy different audiences, has always been part of the pols vocabulary. Unless you approach it like this: appeal to fanatics, make sure you introduce new tech owned by those who support you to the extreme that can vontrol the vote, make sure you pack the courts and the military with those who will rule for you/ back you up as much as possible: get rid of those who think for themselves, make everything poltical to the point of disagreeing the the president can send you to jail or to the grave. That way, only your "base" matters.
Frankly a pres who would be willing to listen and adjust would be refreshing now.
