I've seen this movie before. Trump's "wins" follow the same progression, time and time again.
1) See an issue
2) Come to wrong conclusion about issue
3) Shit the bed with bad policy and/or bad negotiating skills
4) Capitulate when things become untenable
5) Tweet about how he "fixed" the problem
6) Original problem still exists
Rudimentary creatures of blood and flesh. You touch my mind, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding.
You exist because we allow it, and you will end because we demand it.

How many of his nominees have had to withdraw from nomination. I believe there may be more withdrawals than nominations at this point.
So Trump basically doesn't give a shit about the domestic abuse allegations. He stated this about that one staff person and possibly another.Pres Trump says he did not ask for Shanahan to withdraw as nominee for Secy of Defense. @POTUS says he only learned of the domestic violence matter involving Shanahan yesterday. Calls it very unfortunate. But says Shanahan is a wonderful person going through a difficult time.

How DARE the lame stream media report what Trump says word for word! That makes him look absolutely terrible that everything he says, including meetings, is aired out for the public to see! If I was a despotic asshole with a pinchant for sticking my foot in my mouth routinely, I too would hate the free press exposing me for the world to see.

Lol, what kind of Republican 'starts' their campaign in one of the bluest cities in FL in the middle of Pride month down the street from a bunch of proud immigrants and minorities?
I know for a fact he lies about how well received he is.
edit: he did

And the Orlando Sentinel (main newspaper in town) endorsed... NotDonaldTrump

Won't copypaste whole article. But it is worth a read, at least for sanity's sake
Some of it is worth quoting:
Some readers will wonder how we could possibly eliminate a candidate so far before an election, and before knowing the identity of his opponent.
Because there’s no point pretending we would ever recommend that readers vote for Trump.
After 2½ years we’ve seen enough.
Enough of the chaos, the division, the schoolyard insults, the self-aggrandizement, the corruption, and especially the lies.
So many lies — from white lies to whoppers — told out of ignorance, laziness, recklessness, expediency or opportunity.
Trump’s capacity for lying isn’t the surprise here, though the frequency is.
It’s the tolerance so many Americans have for it.
Trump rally anyone?
https://twitter.com/mikiebarb/status...349513728?s=19CNN just cut away from Trump rally.
Guess MSNBC didn't even show it at all. I know, I know that MSM bias but good they are not doing the same mistake from 2016.

He keeps playing the hits.

He celebrated not having healthcare and people cheered. There might be half a brain cell in the entire stadium so it's not like they need insurance anyway.

This is supposed to be a kick off to his re-election campaign but he basically being a whiny little snitch.
https://twitter.com/costareports/sta...879109632?s=19So far, this Orlando speech is full of grievance, jumping from the president’s unhappiness with the media to his grousing about the Russia probe. And while many Dems are running campaigns that abide by norms, he says they are radicals who want to “destroy” the nation.
While I admit I'm not watching live, seems he rather talk about himself than America.

Trump's base turned out.
