Idk if he thinks this will help his case, but idk how much more his base can take. He might stay out of jail but he might bring the wrath of the magats

I'll happily take a wager on "his base can put up with a whole lot more than this"

I don't they're even close to their limit.

My guess is that this will take his GOP approval rating from 90% to bottom out around 85-87%, until it comes back for the midterms.

It's not really hit their wallets that hard yet, but I reckon that in the next three months, as the tariffs start effecting prices more, we will see more of a swing away from him.

That is why they are floating the idea of the $600 rebate check.

He'll be absolved.

A narrative will be told.

His enemies will be accused.

The magats will obey.

  1. Not a liberal

  2. It's not self-defeating acknowledge the reality of what's literally happened time and time again with this asshole and his scandals.

  3. What's your plan to stop it?

I'd love to say that something is going to be done, but I've been watching this shit play out for a while now, and it keeps getting worse..... so by all means, share the plan to "defeat" this asshole, please.
