I suppose, in some universe far away, one might argue that the Trump administration meets unreasonable resistance at every turn, so how can anyone expect him and the rest to have a real chance to implement their vision, such as it is, for America?
Let me be clear: I do not consider myself to be in this camp, I do not subscribe to this argument or point of view. And of course, a no-longer-silent majority across the country doesn’t, either. Trump and his spineless suck-ups have long lost our trust. When most of what exits his and their pie holes is a Swiss-cheese defense or outright lie, there is little he can expect in the way of confidence or agreement.
It’s a terrible place to be— for a nation’s people to have to entertain the possibility that some enemy is more believable than its own leadership. This is what appears to be happening in the ongoing back and forth between the U.S. and Iran. Trump claims one thing, Iran’s leadership says he’s lying, and we tend to believe Iran’s leadership over our own President. Trump of course has laid the groundwork for this crisis of trust. It’s his own damn fault.
It is unlikely that many of us can anticipate what will be coming next, other than more misdirection, empty promises, off-the-cuff dumbness, and Karoline Leavitt’s perpetually puppy dog, brown-nosed defense of the indefensible.
What’s that? Someone else will be shoveling the BS while she’s off on maternity leave?
