“…against the advice even of some of his allies”
Trump HAS allies?
He has supporters who vote.
The people are his allies and that’s it. That is one of the major features of a Trump Presidency. Everyone else through the years have owed organizations, donors and the party leaders. Trump owed only the people. The more the elites attack him the more Trump will owe the people for getting him elected. That’s why they can’t allow him in and why we can’t allow anyone else in.
