Dick Morris: Trump Outmaneuvered Pelosi ‘With Brilliance’
KMJ Now ^ | Dec 27, 2020

Posted on 12/27/2020 12:06:44 PM PST by 11th_VA

...As for the waning days of the Trump administration, Morris marveled how President Donald Trump “just completely outfoxed” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., on coronavirus relief, assuming he succeeds on getting foreign aide reduced and stimulus checks to Americans raised to $2,000.

“Trump really, really outmaneuvered [Pelosi] with brilliance,” Morris said. “He saved the American people from a vast amount of money being spent on pork and garbage, and instead redirected [the debate] to Americans.

“It’s the kind of move that makes me miss him like crazy. One of the things people don’t understand about Donald Trump is how brilliant he is.

“[Former President Bill] Clinton is supposed to be a genius; I worked closely with him, and I worked closely with Trump,” Morris continued. “Trump is by far more of the genius. He’s got a tremendous mind and uses it brilliantly.”

Pelosi, by not getting the deal done on time, and allowing Trump to ‘Pocket Veto’ the bill, is like her fumbling the ball on the one yard line. Trump just needs to run out the clock now.

That Omnibus has TWO YEARS of special interest legislation wrapped up in it, since Pelosi became the first woman House Leader.

Everything her And the house rats worked on for two years is about to die.

I wonder if Mnuchin was running interference while Trump was planning to run out the clock.

If this ends with a CR keeping 2020 spending at 2019 levels, massive win for Trump.

What is the possible victory if a Biden administration comes in next?

I totally support Trump on this but won’t they just push through a worse bill?

Morris is sounding fatalistic about the END of the Trump Presidency. Trump won the election on November 3rd in a landslide. Everyone needs to stay on point, and refuse to accept anything else.

Trump redirected the debate to foreign spending - need to know what the public thinks - but if that becomes the ‘new’ issue going forward (2020) the Rats may not have enough votes in the House to pass it again.

BTW - Toomey said he only supports the bill because COVID relief is attached - that tells that was the Pelosi plan.

President Trump gave the following answer, when recently asked by a White House reporter if he will peaceably leave the White House if Congress certifies Biden's electoral vote victory on Jan. 6: "Certainly I will. Certainly I will. And you know that."

Actual quote. You can watch it on youtube.

“As for the waning days of the Trump administration, Morris marveled”

The “waning days”? Really? I get it, though, as Morris is on Newsmax now, and they have written off Trump’s second term. It’s “president-elect Biden” all the way with them now.

He just did. McConnell screwed Trump over last week. When the crap McConnell pulled was made public, Trump no longer needed to provide him or the other RINOs cover by signing the bill. Look who is screaming the loudest, the RINOS and the RATS.

Trump needs to veto the bill. Biden, Pelosi et al are in a bind now. Assuming Trump leaves office 20 Jan 2021. They agreed to give $2000 and $4000. They will have to do it. As for the Porkulus, dump that in Biden's lap. I get it, people are hurting. A massive number of people are facing eviction right now. For home owners, they can drag it out for months. But for renters, they may be out on the street in January. When you factor in penalties, interest and principal, $2000 ain't $hit. For everyone else, save it, you will need it later in a Biden Administration.

Dick Morris has yet to be right about anything.

And that my friend, is the difference. Trump is brilliant and Pelosi thinks that she is brilliant. She cannot comprehend that there is a difference.

“Dick Morris has yet to be right about anything”

Heard that...also never forget he’s a Clinton sycophant....always has been. I suspect this guy will say anything if there’s a paycheck in it for him. I trust him about as far as I can throw my jeep.

Exactly. Although I'm certain Trump won reelection (in possibly a landslide), I'm only 10% sure (non-attorney WAG guesstimate) that Trump will actually be inaugurated on January 20. Out-maneuvering Senate RINOs McConnell/Romney/Lindsay/etc will be extremely difficult. But there's still a slim, outside chance some Court somewhere will rule in Trump's favor before January 6, or that some actual "BOMBSHELL!" or "BLOCKBUSTER" election-fraud evidence is unearthed before January 6. Nevertheless, I'm sticking with my non-attorney WAG estimate of Trump having a 10% chance of reelection.

We have to face facts.

1. One Representative and one Senate member must contest the electoral votes to, begin debates. McConnell is a fool for not letting the debates happen by having one Senate member agree to void the electoral votes. It is a win win for McConnell as he appears to support Trump and his voters. But I assure you it would be all political theater. For whatever reason, McConnell is hell bent on kicking Trump voters in the teeth.

2. They will debate and you will need a Majority in both Chambers to agree to not accept the electoral votes and send the election to the House of Representatives.

3. You will not get a majority in either chamber. The best you can hope for is the debate exposes the level of fraud and forces Congress to take action. Probably won’t happen until 2022 or 2023. But it would be a major issue for the GOP to run on. By McConnell sweeping it under the rug, they lose the issue and Trump voters.

This is what we are left with because of SCOTUS, especially Roberts. The Roberts Court will always be remembered for being cowards. They will be remembered for destroying the validity of our elections and destroying the Republic.

This is the reality. Morris and other pundits know this. They will all continue to feed us BS to keep us watching. But the reality is PDJT was forced out of office by fraud and we are about to be bent over the fence by our own elected officials. Our government is corrupt from the top down and is no longer to be trusted.
