Trump “winging it” seems to be three chess moves ahead of the opposition.
Maybe he is simply talented, has great advisers, has studied the long game (or they have)...
It is hard to say. Could be that now the Mediacracy is broken, the American people are seeing how much they have been played.
I think Trump is genuinely flummoxed. He can’t get his mind around the way the courts are so willing politicize national security.
My sense is that he came up with the travel order in all sincerity to slow down the refugee invasion. He got gobsmacked by just how corrupt our court system really is. That activist judges would happily court terrorist attacks on innocent Americans if it furthers their political agendas.
