In your defence, you do substantiate your claims.
Which is not the same as proving them, but it does matter.
Anyway, you're on a giant zero as far as Trump goes.
Best is, I don't even like the guy.
Thus far, his presidency has been a giant political lesson. One in the cost of underestimating your opponent while overestimating yourself. That's the part of this story I'm drawn too.
Even prior to his election there was a large machine attempting to curtail him at every turn. From SNL and Colbert to CNN and the FBI. Everybody was in on it. They made him out as an underdog in front of the American people.
Add that to the political campaign against the guy and now you have an actual underdog that is constantly bogged down by allegations, hearings, tax probes, investigations and on and on.
All of it smells of a bad mixture of overconfidence and shortsightedness on the Dems part.
In a popularity contest, which is what politics is, the underdog has the heart of the audience.
It's biblical at this point.
The themes are so symbolic and base.
Wouldn't surprise me if one of these guys mention dragons and winter soon.
If they didn't want him to win, they should have made him be the aggressor during his campaign. Given him little attention and made him come out of his comfort zone to be noticed.
They did the opposite.
If they wanted him to be a single term president they should have been pushing bipartisan issues and outworking the Republicans where they had a majority to do so. Made Trumps administration appear slow as the result of being run by a novice. They should also have reported less on the Russia stuff but kept it, and similar stories, just far enough in the background that it wouldn't be brought to a conclusion but instead create and a general air of mistrust around him over the four years.
But no. They had to ply the goo on so thick and from so many angles that it couldn't be ignored.
Lifelong politicians failed to out politics a complete and utter noob. It's pure theatre.
Every time this stuff fails they're just nailing down another beam in the building Trump's Trojan underdog.
