Wow. I will read your previous work but I think you give Trump WAY TOO MUCH credit. He was played like a fiddle. The Swamp had him actually choosing Swamp creatures because fellow swamp, creatures "Cocaine Mitch" as the dumb R sheep call him, told Trump that his choices wouldn't get through the confirmation process.

Paul Ryan controlled the House for his first 2 years. Nothing Trump wanted got done. Trump doesn't write the bills. He only signs the bills. He trusted the military and since they have been working on this for decades as you say they tricked the new guy into thinking they were good men.

Trump appointed Pence to head the covid team but let's be honest... he sadly had painted himself into a catch 22 because every death was going to be pinned on him whether he locked down or not. I guess he thought the lockdown was preferential but firing those assholes would have been better. His ego and his insistence on touting "his vaccines" will end up being his downfall.

In my opinion that storm comment had to do with what he thought he was going to do to the Swamp.

Trump-bashing is EVERYWHERE, it's unoriginal, it's tiresome. Trump is not perfect, he's but one man, he listens to "experts," some of who surely surprised him, as they did me, by their level of evil with covid. He fights for us. The world was better off with him in the White House. The Kushners have to go, the RINOs have to go. If everyone weren't trying to take him down, he could have relied less on his family. BUT, there's a reason that so many powerful uniparty sell-outs are terrified of him, and that makes me want Trump. Nobody has been this deeply investigated, there's simply nothing to find. DeSaintis has been bought out by the RNC as a "reasonable alternative" because he doesn't have F-U money, his years in DC have left a mark, and he's suspiciously flush with cash and marketing. I'm not buying. Trump ain't perfect, but he didn't get a real shot either. I'm willing to try again. He is our best hope.
