Polls show a stubborn 38% of the public is sticking with Trump, even as the disastrous leaks keep coming. Where are these people? I’m not sure, but they are certainly not among his White House staff:
Wait a minute—wasn’t I called “deranged” then I pointed out that Trump was a moron? Did you Trumpistas expect his own White House staff to be admitting the same, less than 4 months into office?
Then there are those who deny the truth of these stories—even when they are based on eyewitness reports of meetings, written up into transcripts, circulated to dozens of White House officials, and not even denied by the White House!
Trumpistas now live a a post-logic world where the King can literally do no wrong, where any setback is due to some sort of dark conspiracy of the “deep state”, which is bound and determined to thwart “the will of the voters”.
Unfortunately that won’t work. Trump ran as a sort of superman, who could cut through all the Washington bureaucracy and get stuff done. He never once said he’d Make America Great Again if Paul Ryan cooperated, he said Paul Ryan would cooperate or he’d be gone. Sorry, but when you run as superman there are no excuses for failure.
For the country’s sake I hope he resigns. But for my own sake I hope he stays around for 8 years. Trump has Made Blogging Fun Again.
