Yep. Trump thinks this stuff hurts the people he targets. But it's killed his own ability to build coalitions and get anything done in Congress. The TWS-afflicted think he's the victim. But in reality he's just alienated almost everyone around him. Classic drunk dialing syndrome. Obnoxious at the bar, then home lonely hoping for a booty call.

He’s risking alienating the non-college grad folks. Why do that? What purpose does it serve. frick the rest, no issue with anything else. The college stuff just seems risky and elitist.

If the economy could get going with only the energy required to type a few words, we'd all be doing great. Seems kinda weird to blame Trump for the economy requiring more effort than that, though.

It's amazing to me that—even after all of the corrupt profiteering he's done this term—MAGA still thinks he's unpopular in Washington because "he's an outsider who wants to drain the swamp."

He's BECOME the swamp. They don't like him because he's not interested in helping anyone else run the game but himself...not because he's against the game.

He does not play well with others. In any context.

I mean... how's that Iran deal coming along? How's those bond yields looking? SAVE act passed? Rescission bills passed? Mid terms looking good?

Instead, he's focused on drunk dialing tweets. It's petty, small, and telegraphs a fragile ego. No one is going to work with anyone that brittle.

Zero. What makes you think I'm mad? That said... I'd need a lot of alcohol to lose enough mental capacity to actually defend him. Fortunately, my brain is still working. What's your excuse?

I find your defense of Tucker and Greene interesting considering they are even less classically liberal/free market than trump is.

Tucker has said multiple times he opposes free markets

Honestly djt is closer to your ideal candidate/philosophy than Tucker and Greene, although that isn’t saying much


Tucker is an embarrassment. He’s not just an isolationist. He outright praises dictatorships. He praised *maduro*.

I feel like if a different gop president used his bully pulpit to call out Tucker’s postliberal madness, you’d praise it as courageous

MTG is a low iq clown that had zero chance of winning a senate seat because she was losing support. MTG talked MAGA and ran her district like a liberal. Her district exploded with illegal immigrants. When Trump destroyed her she ran to the view and liberal shows to allow her liberal talking points to come out.

People in congress don't run their districts, nor do they have any direct control over immigrants in their area. She works for the federal government, not state or local.

This is obviously not true.

I don't watch that trash, but what liberal talking points exactly?
