"Is Trump Keyser Söze — Or Inspector Clouseau?/Maybe the president brilliantly played the media. Or maybe we just played ourselves"

"Maybe, in fact, Trump is the genius he claims to be, possessed — as he likes to boast — of a 'very good brain.'"

"O.K., I don’t quite believe that. But going forward, it would be wise for all of his inveterate critics in the news media, including me, to treat it as our operating assumption. The alternative is to let him hand us our butts all over again, just as he did by winning the G.O.P. nomination and then the election, and then by presiding over years of robust economic growth. That should be the central lesson from the epic media fiasco of Russiagate."


…..Donald Trump has just won a major victory over his chosen political enemies, including this newspaper. Whether he’s achieved this through genius or luck, it would behoove us not to take him for a fool. This was the week to examine our own foolishness instead.

so many regularly claim the man is dumb, an idiot, etc. I think trump is very smart, maybe not a genius, but definitely smarter than he is given credit for in the press because he always beats them at their game.

There is more to come when the entire Mueller Report is released. I'm sure that there are people in East Texas that see him as a genius, I'm going to wait until this plays out. People keep celebrating in the first inning, same for NK, Russia, tariffs and the wall.


That genius just asked the DOJ to cancel the ACA, I guess he just cant handle success.

Trump may have outsmarted the media, but that's not exactly a high hurdle to clear.

This feels a bit like a "cool story, bro" thread.

I do enjoy the comparison of Trump to Keyser Soze, a character played by a guy who molested young men.

Ah, there it is again. "More to come!....The TRUTH will never be known".

Mueller is not going to indict anyone. So who do you think will indict someone? The answer is "no one". As he said, there will be no further indictments.

This is probably more accurate...

Trump Is Relentless

I wrote the bestselling business book “The Power of Relentless” four years ago. After a lifetime of studying business leaders, I concluded that being "relentless" is the number one trait that leads to success. And I named Donald J. Trump as the most relentless human being in modern history. Soon after, Trump was elected president — against all odds.

...
First, of course, President Trump was exonerated and vindicated after the most corrupt hoax in the history of U.S. politics.

...
On Monday, the Department of Justice announced that Obamacare is unconstitutional and the entire Affordable Care Act should be struck down.

...
Next, the Pentagon notified Congress that it had authorized the first billion dollars for Trump to build his wall. This first billion will be used to build 57 miles of new wall/fencing along the Yuma and El Paso sections of the border. Construction will begin immediately. But didn’t liberals claim Trump would never build his wall?

...
Finally, Trump has announced he’ll sign a new Executive Order to recognize Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights — a strip of land central to Israel’s security.



Read the whole thing to fill in the blanks.

He is continuing to remove Obamacare. He is continuing his efforts to build the wall. He is continuing to stand up for Israel. All of these things despite the opposition from both parties.

The article closes by demanding a relentless pursuit of justice regarding the various scandals involving those on the left.
