” Reaching out to this woman helps her in grieving, it looks good politically, and it may have ended the news cycle that he was cruel.” >>>
Trump knew the same as I did that it was the Black Widow who set this up and provided her gal pal, Crazy Wilson, with the dynamite to blow Trump up. Every step of the way, the Black Widow laid the tools for Wilson to use.
The widow provided the stage for this fuse to be lit, for the fireworks to go off, and light up the media world with their malicious, flaming attack against Trump.
The widow stayed silent, and let Crazy Wilson stalk every network to smear and slander Trump.
Why would Trump want to play stroke the kitty a second time, with the Black Widow? This fanged cat wasn’t going to be given a second opportunity to jack him around.
No one cares about the stinking backstory of Wilson and the Johnsons. The point is they were both equally TRUMP HATERS from the get-go, grifters, after money, and media applause from their like-minded communist friends and thrilled to take him down.
I do worry about the extent of your naivete and your over analyzing of their cute friendship. Trying to play around with your scenarios which are fine for little kiddies, but are deadly errors in a political fire fight to save our country.
Forgive me for being so blunt. Possibly you are very young or inexperienced in political combat.
Our country is at stake and Trump is not Mr. Rogers. There will be no apologies, or patty fingers played for the camera, or apple pie delivered to Trump’s enemies so it looks better politically. No, that is not someone we elected. Trump hits hard. Thanks be to God.
Perhaps I have a different tactic. There are two ways to deal with this:
1) Deny it and try to fight back
2) Apologize if comments were misunderstood, clarify, make a comment about the heroism and bravery of our troops and make a donation - a high ground maneuver.
If he does number 2, he kills her entire argument. Her argument is that Trump was insensitive, didn’t care, and so forth. Trump comes out the next day, clarifies the statement, shows he is compassionate, and shows he cares - that all the reports and the Congresswoman’s remarks were a hullaballoo about nothing. It helps the widow, and Trump looks good. It ends the media story in a day.
I look at this in terms of the casual American out there who sees this story on the news and doesn’t follow it in depth. I think doing option two is going to appeal more to them and help Trump from a political standpoint a lot more than an 8 day feud culminating in the widow coming forth.
