Don’t expect Trump to stop being Trump in 2019
nypost.com ^ | Michael Goodwin

Posted on 12/23/2018 9:46:47 AM PST by RoosterRedux

So the border remains open while the government shuts down. And the Mideast will have to fight its bloody wars without the sacrifice of more American soldiers.

Those two facts summarize the turbulent week that was in Washington. And how President Trump is once again upsetting all the apple carts, damn the consequences.

The only surprise is that so many people are still surprised when Trump acts like Trump. They better get used to it.

In fact, my prediction is that the Trump of 2019 is going to be far more feisty and disruptive than the one we have seen in his first two years in the Oval Office.

Not necessarily because he wants to, though he clearly enjoys breaking the china. But because he doesn’t have much choice if he wants to survive and have a chance at re-election.

The president is facing peril on all sides, and this is how he fights back. Part-fury, part-strategy, his dramatic decisions in recent days illustrate why he engenders so much love from some and so much hate from others.

Good. As far as I’m concerned, This. Is. War!

Drain the Swamp! Build The Wall! We The People have got your six, Mr. President! MAGA! :)

Haven’t been paying attention past week.

What were his dramatic moves if anyone knows?

I know not signing the budget was considered dramatic because it shut down our worthless govt.

But what else?

We expect nothing less than ‘The Donald’ running the operation.

I have a feeling the animal spirits will be stirred quite a bit more this time around.

“We The People have got your six, Mr. President!”

I’d like to expand on that a little if I may...

Not only do we have his back, but We the People will be right there with him every step of the way.

This time around, we will engage.

recent days

That terminology does not specify a set number of days. It could refer to as many as three weeks. Perhaps even as many as 4 weeks. All depends on who is using the terminology really, and what they think can be classified as recent days.

Thus it is impossible to determine exactly what he is talking about precisely, nor does it matter. He is making a point that President Trump operates in his fashion in his attempts to get results.

Then stop the bull #### with the border wall and get the military to build it.

I’m ####ing sick of this issue, an issue that should have been addressed as long as SIXTY years ago.

That most likely is part of what he is talking about.

Thanks.

Just wanted to make sure I didn’t miss anything big recently :)

I reach an aggravation threshold and then withdraw from political news for a week or so.

Then i come back :)

If Trump stops being Trump, it is the only thing which will stop me from supporting Trump 100%.

I hear you, me too. I want to reach out and touch the "opposition". It's then that I know I need to step back. 8>)

Someone else responded to you and his response, pulling troops from Syria & Afghanistan, makes sense as to what he is referring to.

Trump knows his Crockett
