Do you not understand why people don't take Trump complaints seriously?

Do you not see that the press and elite liberals sweep issues regarding Democrats under the rug?

People are supposed to get up in arms about Trump and women - when Clinton was likely worse, and he was defended...

People are supposed to be up in arms about Trump scandals - when Clinton and Obama scandals are ignored...

People are supposed to be up in arms about Trump scandals even though their is no real evidence... meanwhile when there is smoke coming from a Democrat scandal, it is ignored and swept under the rug.

I don't know why you expect the other side to police itself, when you don't hold your own people accountable when they do wrong.

It's just a big game. The only rules are the ones you can pressure your opponent to bend to.

------------------

Meanwhile - life goes on and people have needs... Dems have zero solutions outside of government controlled distribution.

Oh they have a solution...the far left is convinced Obama didn't push hard enough to convince America of the joys of socialism and more big government.

From The Hill -

"They are convinced that surely the American people want more government, higher taxes, guns confiscated, Trump removed from office, massive policy changes based on climate change, transgender rights, abortion on demand, open borders and amnesty for all. Surely the American people wanted all of this — except those bad Russians, with their $832 Facebook ad buys in Michigan and $300 Facebook ad buys in Pennsylvania that got dozens of clicks, completely changed the election results.

This is all just a major case of the denials. As the Democratic Party goes further and further left in its major flirtation with socialism, it’s like the party ship got taken over by the Left and with all the energy and money inside the party from the Left."

Democratic Party goes further and further left in its major flirtation with socialism | TheHill

If the Democrats go this way in the midst of a booming economy it will Trump in a landslide come 2020.

The only Trump fatigue I am experiencing is the constant attacks on him by the media, news and late night talk and comedy shows. It is wearing like a glacier that keeps moving and grinding away.

It has become like a game to see what the daily outrage from the Left will be and how they will spin a Trump accomplishment into a negative that threatens the country.



The Dems need to dump their identity politics approach and stop trying to segment everyone into groups of victims if they have any hopes of returning to power.



The Trump train still rolls on and there are still many that want to derail it no matter the cost to the country.



The negativity is turning Trump into a bullied victim and dare I say an underdog.

I can easily see Trump's approval ratings getting a bump if we merely go a week without any bad news.

Trump has already received a significant bump this week because his Middle East trip, for the most part, went better than expected. This is despite the fact that new developments are still breaking daily.
I think it already has.

Maybe - a good parallel is following the career of Howard Stern. Remember him? Many younger people have probably never heard of him. But his approach to climbing the popularity ladder as a "shock jock" mirrors Trump's methods in many ways, because Trump more than anything else is an entertainer, a showman.

At the beginning of his career he made his name by being vulgar, obscene and shocking - that was his shtick and it worked well for him at first. People were drawn into watching Stern; because it was similar to watching a train wreck. Hard to look away.

Today, his really has no loyal listener base left, the novelty has worn off. What it comes down to is that we know what to expect from Stern, and no one really cares any more.

https://variety.com/2014/digital/new...ws-1201067292/

Trump is going through the same cycle. At first, people were transfixed by his angry Twitter feed and his bombastic rhetoric; it was new, novel, and outrageous. Every news outlet detailed every Trump outburst - which of course was exactly what he wanted.

Today, a lot of people don't care any more. That is directly reflected in the fact that news outlets are reporting his crazy outbursts more as a "there he goes again", and are spending less and less time on it for one simple reason - there isn't a demand for it.

Trump's arc will be just like that of Howard Stern. By the end of his term most people will be tired of him. Sure there were be a few hardcore fans but many people will have moved on after 4 years of his antics. It all underscores the facts that Trump first and foremost is an entertainer - not a politician and not a President.

The "Fatigue" is with the Leftist Never Ending Hysterical Meltdown.
It's a never ending litany that people now ignore.

‘Yes,’ All Trump Supporters Are Racist|CNN - 5/30/18

If it wasn't for Double Standard, LEFTISTS would have no Standards at all.
On the Up side -- all this constant vitriol and hostility toward President Trump and more importantly - the Voters who put him in office, is turning people away from Democrats and the trash mouthed Left.

The bizarre thing about the Left is that they have no other playbook or platform other than ......

Trump BAD-BAD-BAD
People who support or vote for Trump are Bad-Bad-Bad. And Deplorable Racists!!!!

This is exactly why the Famous Blue Wave has turned into .........

With your wonderfully analytical mind, can you explain to us all why his approval percentage is exactly the same (RCP - 44%) as it was when he assumed office in 2017?


And while you are explaining it all to us, will you address the fact that his approval has risen steadily since it bottomed out at 37% in Dec 2017, and explain that as well.

Didga read over in the thread on the Nashville rally about how The Left tried to convince each other that there was an ad running which offered to pay people to wear a MAGA hat?


These Lefties; they're a scream!
