Out of the bargaining phase.

I look forward to their despair.

Every 200 years or so we need an “Andrew Jackson” to clean house...

Liberals are people that want to force you to share in their unfulfilling life.

George Steinbrenner was Trumps mentor & friend beginning in the 80’s.

Trump ain’t going anywhere.

One thing Trump is doing that the Left and the media have been very slow to learn is that he’s willing to let the false narrative grow only to play “gotcha” and make the Left and media look like fools.

Take the income tax narrative for example. He didn’t rush right out and display his income taxes. He waited for the narrative to spin out of control then probably leaked a tax return which the Left breathlessly put on the air showing not only that Trump paid his taxes but he paid more than the Obamas, Bushes or Clintons. Game, set, match on that subject.

He’s doing the same thing with the Russia narrative. I think he’s waiting for just the right moment to spring the trap and may be almost there now that the “unmasker” has been unmasked. Soon, this will be Game, set and match.

If he seems to toy with the media like a cat with a mouse, not really taking them seriously when the rest of the GOP cowers in fear against what the media might say, it’s because he knows how to beat them. When has he not?

So, don’t panic. He’s winning far more than losing and he’s making the media crazy thinking they’ve got him only to watch him turn the tables on them. By summer, the media may learn to be more careful with what they say.

While the majority of the mainstream media focuses all of their energy on reporting every item they can find which looks like “bad news” for the Trump administration...

Politicians and 'journalists' continue to think they're the smartest people in the room.

They forget that it's businessmen like Trump that earn the money that goes into their pockets and are the real brains behind the money.

Exactly. The MSM just doesn’t get that you don’t build a multi billion dollar empire by being an idiot. They are so out of their depth.

I’ve been trying to explain that very concept to a liberal Trump hating relative,

He has bought into the idea Trump is too full of himself to be that clever...

Perceptive, and correct. Trump, initially naive about the Establishment Media, very quickly realized that they were the enemy that needed to be defeated. His plans and methods were built on that premise. He shows that he understands how they work, and how to crush them, over and over.

The only things needed are that understanding and an independent way to communicate to the public. He has both, and he has a staff that have built their lives around thwarting the Establishment Media templates.

This is a historic dynamic that will likely end the rule of the Mediacracy in the United States.

The social media and the building independent media both offer future candidates the potential for independence from the Establishment media. Virtually all Conservatives recognize the power of the Establishment Media over them; many “progressives” do not, because they do not feel its sting. Thus many “progressive” candidates are unable to understand the dynamic, and it leaves them ill prepared to deal with independent and social media effects.

I hope that there is a sequel to the past election night coverage. When the Democrats realize they LOSE the Russian smear and Trump WINS as Demcrat dirty tricks are confirmed.

...they’re clearly generating something of a sense of false optimism among Democrats...

Like the boundless “optimism” they had for the felon in waiting winning on November 8th.
They are still wallowing in their misery. It’s a mental illness.

I know its just odd to watch.. Trump has diffrent time frames then politicians

Trump will act super fast went he moves. But on other thnges like this he just lays is wait letting his opponents have enough rope to hang themselves.

Trump tactical but has long-term strategies and he doesn’t seem to Flinch about it what others would be freaking out that they’re getting chewed up .. guess this comes from being a private business...he thinks in the long game... after all a businessman has to make big risk where he is upside down for a while because he knows it will pay off in the end

It not the score at the first quarter or the half or even a third quarter ....is the score at the end of the game.

Yes. I suppose if there is really any justice left at the top of our government, then it should prevail.

IF justice is able to prevail, I know I will look back on this time and wish I had enjoyed it more. I would like to enjoy the despair, as you rightfully say, and all the angst and the misery, the yowling, the head in the oven hopelessness and helplessness of ALL the nets and the cables and the newsers and the anti-Trump loons, out there.

But, no, it’s a constant a white knuckle period of time, with high tension. You see, I am not convinced that Justice rules the day, anymore. I already know that Justice is no longer blind. The Stature of Liberty and the scales of justice are quite tipped to favor the evil rich and powerful.

Hillary Clinton has guaranteed us that.

Liberals are not going anywhere either. They are a disease that can adapt like any other pandemic.Look how the liberals allied with Islam and freak culture. In my opinion, we lost the resolve to eradicate this. It is entrenched. They will come back with a vengeance. They fight and plan. GOPE gets historic majority and sucks it thumb, acts like the slaves of the Democrats and hides under their desks. Our party that is supposed to represent conservatism sucks and needs to die just like the DNC. If Hitler had Soros power and America was the way it is now the world would be very different. The way this is going, the world would wish for Hitler for the worst case scenario of liberalism and Islam winning is the darkest ages of all time.
