Trump faces a much tougher road to reelection than most seem to think.

  1. It's still a horse race, which that in itself shows just how pitiful the democratic party has become. It all boils down to whether or not people feel safe. Right now they do not which gives Joe the edge because all he has to do is offer critique while having no skin in the game. Problem for Democrats is the longer they invest in the chaos the bigger the problem if they win, and blaming Trump will only play for so long, and a quick fix just isn't going to happen.

    If the Democrats win, we as a country is finished. They will throw the borders wide open and everyone would just walk in turning the US into a banana republic overnight. And since, there a limited and now scarce resources for everyone, by default become a communist state. Democrats will ration everything even the food you eat, like a loaf of bread. Even that is not going to be enough because how many refugees will cross the US borders? Ten million, Fifty million? One hundred million? Since, the US borders are wide open, tens of millions of radical Islamists will come thru spreading terrorism and Islam in the US. None of us are going to be safe, let alone have a future. That goes double for your kids and grandchildren.

    Yep, at this point if the president wants to tweet himself into obscurity I will simply conclude that he no longer wanted the job.

    I had to stop watching when the intern murder thing started. There is apparently nobody of sufficient stature on the cabinet who can assert some sanity. Whatever. Kelly had balls made of stainless steel but became too popular and Trump doesn't like others sucking up the oxygen. First staffers turned on him then the President.

    Trump thinks he has a management style but its very old, nothing original. He sets up competitive adversarial relationships among his staff and lets them fight it out.

    I worked for another man who thinks that is a management style and thinks he invented rank and yank. He writes books glorifying it as his style. I think he is the richest guy in Chicago right now. Success means infallibility right?

    I tried it, twice. I allowed factions to form. I managed resources to keep them relatively even and competitive. Then I let them fight it out.

    What I learned is that when you setup Thunderdome you get.... Thunderdome. All of the angst, lost sleep, unreasonable hours, thrashing and intrigue represent wasted energy... overhead that is not tolerated in traditional management styles. It is not efficient. It is not a happy place to work.

    I reverted back to my standard autocratic model. Instead of managers mauling each other they were more cooperative and instead were mauled by me. It works. People seemed happier. It made me look pretty imperious and perhaps feared a little but there weren't whole departments working against each other and there were no fistfights in the parking lot.

    You are turned off a few tweets? Why is it that Democrat extreme liberals can say the most offensive things and get away with it? He has had to deal with 2 impeachment attempts to unlawfully, remove him from power, 24/7 non-stop attacks by extreme liberal media hacks, deep state operatives subverting anything he does, extreme liberal judges ruling from the bench and trying to obstruct efforts to secure the US borders? Inspite, of that, he has signed trade deals with Mexico, Canada, partial trade deals with Japan and China, restored the US as an economic superpower, went after and eliminated terrorist leaders, secured the US borders as much as he can. Reduced corporate taxes on US companies, reduced regulations and created more jobs including, for blacks. President Donald Trump did plenty in those 3 1/2 years he has been in power despite, all the Democrat efforts to subvert him including, shutting down their economies by Democrat governors to hurt the US economy and letting rioters destroy their cities and businesses despite, having police and national guard control? If it was me in his place, I would long have said F you assholes, you deal with the problems of the US, I will go golfing and enjoy my life as a billionaire. Why the hell am I trying to even make your lives and that of your children better? You can all pound sand.

    I mean come on.. went to the bunker to inspect it... why lie about that, say the secret service made you, something other than a lie that I don't think even Trumpers can believe. He's messed up in the head, it's weird when I say in my head 'dementia will be a nice change of pace' when talking about the POTUS, but it will.

    Yikes.

    You condemn me too quickly sir.

    I voted for Trump. I will vote for Trump again.

    I'm allowed to not like the tweets. When those tweets are Presidential they can be effective. When those tweets are infantile they do inestimable damage. They erode confidence because they leave people like me wondering why the guy is wasting mips cogitating upon insignificant matters.

    When Kathy Griffin can hold a mask closely resembling President Donald Trump's head with fake blood looking very real and get away with it and liberal media without saying anything about it nor her saying just lately, that she wanted to inject him with a syringe filled with air? The hateful vitriol never ends. Madonna has talked about blowing up the Whitehouse and there are countless, washed up Hollywood celebrities who have in effect called for his death? That is not counting the hateful vitriol hurled at Ivanka, Melania, Baron and his other kids and their wives. Anything President Donald Trump tweets looks pretty tame by comparison. So, I give him a pass because he has more than earned it. Atleast, he is doing his job despite, the huge concerted efforts by Democrats to prevent him from doing so. They hate him so much, that they would want the US to fail in any efforts to get him.
