These are often dramas of his own making, with him naturally the hero. He stakes out maximalist positions and issues brutal ultimatums to compel action, arguing that extreme problems demand extreme tactics. At times, though, it can seem like little more than smoke and mirrors substituting for serious policymaking, a way of pretending to make progress without actually solving the underlying problem.

The Bold perfectly illustrates Trump's MO. Trump is so predictable. He manufactures crises than plays the hero when he backs down.


Chuck Schumer knew it. Nancy Pelosi knows it. Mexico knows it. The world knows it. Everyone save Trumpers who worship the fraud in chief knows it.


The dolt in chief still acts like foreign policy is a business transaction whether like a real estate deal or Trump attempting to stiff his creditors. It obviously is not.

Trump whole persona is an illusion. The wizard has been revealed as a scammer. Even Toto knew it in the movie. Maybe Trumpers can learn a thing or two from Toto.

This sounds awful, but I hope the economy softens considerably so Trump is not reelected. I don't want the economy to crash at all. It's a terrible thing for America, but if the economy remains strong, he'll probably be reelected, and he's so bad for the country, I just want him out and he won't be impeached with all the bootlickers remaining in office. I would be thrilled with any other candidate over him, even another Republican.

More blather from a former Obama official, backed by more insulting rhetoric from the OP.
Blah-blah, "Trump's base" ..... "his base" ..... Blah-blah ...."MO" .... "worship" ..... "dolt"...


Not much real information there.

Those people still have no clue they got trump elected the first time, there is no reason to even believe they have the ability to realize they are in the exact same situation...

The Resistance must be the new right-wing talking point. Too bad you don't like to respond to the OP with a response rather than nonsensical babble

Oh, believe me, we KNOW what got Trump elected, and it isn't for the reasons you thought.

More deflection and just plain drivel. Respond to the OP.

“This is a pattern we’ve seen since the first days of this administration,” said Ned Price, a former C.I.A. official who worked on President Barack Obama’s National Security Council staff and is now director of policy at National Security Action, a progressive foreign policy advocacy organization.


Someone forgot to tell Barry's lackey that just because Barry believes he is still President doesn't make it so.

The only smoke and mirrors is President Trump keeping the DEMs on their toes and in panic mode wondering when their deeds will be exposed.
