Opinion: With chaos reigning supreme, Trump’s honeymoon is already over
The Hill ^ | Feb 2, 2025 | Brad Bannon

The chaotic start of Trump 2.0 proved that Sam Rayburn was right when he said, “Any jackass can kick down a barn, but it takes a good carpenter to build one.” America needs a carpenter to rebuild the nation. It got Trump to make things worse.....

Chaos and confusion reign supreme. The Trump administration is the gang that can’t shoot straight. Trump just needed a week and a half to bring the nation to its knees. The scary thing is Trump has been planning this shaky transition for four years.

The first and certainly not the last mistake of the new administration occurred just a week in. His Office of Management and Budget issued an order that froze federal government spending and loan programs.

This action made it impossible for seniors to request Medicare benefits, for high school seniors to apply for college student loans and frightened millions of people before the administration bowed to pressure and rescinded the action......

This president no longer enjoys the luxury of the honeymoon that Americans traditionally give the new occupant of the White House. If his disapproval is so high now, imagine what it could look like in two months. It’s no wonder that Trump is in a rush to get things done. Soon, he might have no political currency at all to spend.

Before my Democratic and progressive friends get too excited, it’s important for them to understand Trump’s strengths and weaknesses so they can pick their fights. He has made traditional media and the tech titans afraid of their own shadow. He also enjoys the support of a compliant Congress and Supreme Court. That kind of concentration of power can forgive lots of political sins.

Trump never got a honeymoon as 45, the attacks started immediately with the Russian Hoax. The big difference is that Trump is now the leader of the republican party, and everyone knows it.

Stupid Hill. There’s not going to be a honeymoon, and that’s at Trump’s direction. There’s going to be a battered spouse syndrome against the Democrats for the next four years. Deal with it.

The only chaos that exists is within the RAT party, and within its brainless followers.

“This action made it impossible for seniors to request Medicare benefits...”

As far as anyone needs to read, if you don’t get clued in by the term “honeymoon” in the headline.

Bullshit and it goes down hill from there.
