Master Troll Trump Said ‘No Strategy’ Behind His Bashing Baltimore. But Of Course There Was.
Gateway Pundit ^ | 8/1/19

“There’s no strategy. I have no strategy. There’s zero strategy.”

That’s what President Trump said Tuesday after slamming the city of Baltimore as a “disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess.”

But that’s not true — not by a long shot. Trump’s tweets over the weekend — which kicked off the whole debacle and drew, predictably, charges of racism — was no accident.

Between rounds of golf at his posh golf resort outside of Washington, Trump ignited a firestorm with just a few tweets.

Be careful, Mr. President.

The Left has mind readers...

Go back to Cummings flaming about everything and anything Trump. I think his last screaming match was about the border.

Maybe he relies on instinct, and his instincts are good.

Trump’s strategy is about bluntly calling out hypocrites. Call people out as the occasion arises. Consequences be damned. But he has the uncanny ability to not give a rats ass about what they’ll call him - they’ll do it anyway. So he calls them out when the hypocrisy is so obvious.

Trump is a master in action. He is the supreme strategic chess player...not a word leaves his mouth without him measuring it from all angles before he utters a sound. And...”The-Rope-a-Dope” Democrat buffoons still have not figured Trump out.

Only those of us folks that have lived our lives in the negotiation business, master this process and Trump is truly one of the best masters of using this skill in God’s world!!!

AFter he’s out of office, he should start another reality TV show called, “You’ve been trolled!”

The guy is a genius. It’s the first attribute he displayed after being elected that I really liked.

There is definitely a pattern, however.

PDJT makes a tweet and gets attention/news cameras aimed at him. Controversy erupts all over the internet and news channels. Slowly, PDJT manages to get the cameras aimed at a ‘real’ problem. The newsies are force, by now, to cover it. PDJT leans back in his chair, smiling.

The politicos in Baltimore are sandbagging Ben Carson. The HUD money he has described to be used in Sandtown will instead be used for municipal projects in the North Avenue corridor, miles to the east. NONE of it will go to Sandtown, the worse blighted parts of Baltimore, in Cumming’s district.
Ben Carson is apparently oblivious of this little known fact.

It’s apparently beginning to dawn in the more alert corners of the Left that Trump is threatening one of their cheapest and easiest political ploys, the “racism/sexism/homophobia” troika that makes membership in a protected class confer invulnerability to criticism. That’s a pretty serious matter, because the normies have become so thoroughly sick of Political Correctness that it’s no longer the sure bet to invoke that it used to be. It’s slowly dawning on the media as well but they’ll use it as long as they can.

President Trump has a long-term strategy...and this criticism of Cummings & Baltimore supports it. To ensure a future for the Republicans — a successor for president and down the ticket for all Republicans — he is laying a foundation that “Democrats cannot be trusted to govern America”.

This is a flank attack which supports and amplifies the upcoming indictments and convictions of the Democrat operatives.

LS and many of us know that this a weaponized and targeted
Tweet designed to cause significant damage to the DemoKKKrat
who have been robbing the black citizens for decades.

LS: I once thought Trump just did this intuitively, just “felt it.”

No longer. This has been a well-constructed and deliberate campaign to undercut and destroy the old-line civil rights/DemoKKKrat leadership so as to separate blacks/Hispanics from them. ——————————————————————————————

Baltimore residents reveal how locals really feel about Elijah Cummings with scathing honesty 7/29/2019, 11:15:31 AM · 5 of 20 “As far as the houses and everything, like I said, [Cummings] has never done anything for not even one person that I know of. I never heard anybody say anything about him,” Michelle explained. “And people want to talk about Donald Trump ... why is [Cummings] over there taking care of people at the border? We are hungry. We need a place to stay.”

That’s right. Trump responds to attacks big and small. That’s all it was.

I don’t think he was purposefully trolling. He’s a counter puncher and uses the truth to counterpunch, and sadly we live in a time when telling the truth is trolling (triggering).

Trump is the accidental troll.

White neighborhoods should get equal federal money as black neighborhoods.
