I am not blind, I can see that Trump does have a blind spot for political talent and likely leans too much on bad advice.
But I will take someone who doesn’t recognize the snake-in-the-grass that any given politician might be, and who gets things done, over someone who is slick and smooth and constantly triangulating, like Clinton or Obama.
Heck...the guy never ran for political office before, and made it on his first try into the White House. That is pretty impressive.
It is my hope that he may have learned some lessons from that experience.
Absolutely. But it is a shame what Fox is willing to do in order to “tow the line” or in other words...spread propaganda. And I really miss Greg’s show oh and Judge Jeannine.
Yep, but I do get Greg’s monologue on my news feed on my phone. I hope President Trump gives Judge Jeannine a place on the court or cabinet. She’s got spunk......;)
GOPJ, pay attention to what I’m saying. I’m raising the alert flag that causing division is EXACTLY that the DEMONocRATS are doing.
Your replies are non-sequiturs to what I’m saying.
Trump does have a blind spot for political talent and likely leans too much on bad advice.I disagree. I have no idea what or who is giving him advice.
It's not like he has a large pool of advisors to choose from.
He didn't spend his life studying who's who.
He did a hell of a job working through "political blind spots" with such bad advice.
After all that, who came out on top and who look like the fools?
Maybe you don't think so, I do.
Ask the 81 million other supporters how they feel..
what a stupid segment
I feel like you suspect I disagree with you on this, and I don’t. I think it was a combination of a few things, and his “blind spot” was one of them. He did make some poor choices. But I do think people were planted in there, and I think he was given both bad advice and deliberately bad advice.
But as I said-he didn’t have a store of political knowledge apart from what he followed socially and what he cultivated in his business.
He wasn’t a “professional” which is one of the things many of us really like about him, myself included. He had to learn things on the job, and had to lean on people for their expertise. And it is there I definitely don’t disagree with you.
He was used to doing that generally as a builder and real estate guy in a business sense, but I think the people he leaned on in a political sense did not do him service in more than a few cases. And like you, I believe some of that lack of “service” was intentional.
Heh, I feel like we are arguing, but...I don’t disagree with you in any material way!
Ready to “ditch” him? No, ready with a reasonable alternative should he not run or have some damaging problem over the next year.
