I didn't even have to read this. It's thesis is nonsensical

https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/05/10/donald-trump-comeback-obsession-245473

Did Trump casinos come back? Trump airlines? Trump publishing? Trump steaks?

No. He just walked away and let somebody else pick up the pieces. You can't do that with a country or I hope not.


“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy--they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

part of me agrees w most people that he would dig in for life if he could get away w it. but the other part keeps looking for something that might be the last straw that would make him just PACK.IT.THE.FUCK.IN.

Ads, slogans and talking points should ALL include facts that show Trump losing...vote totals, crowd sizes, legislative agendas, policies, finances, marriages...he is a life long failure who has convinced himself that not admitting it makes it go away. He is a toddler without object permanence still.

Pierce the veil.
Call him out and make him see it every day.

His failures have a body count of Americans that is dwarfing nearly everything.
Tattoo that to his ugly fucking orange face and make it stick...

the theme of carelessness. They lack good sense and judgement and are inconsiderate the others. Our president is an extreme example!
