Jon Meacham on Brian Williams said Trump may be Preparing for what will Happen

[JI7]

i saw a bit of Meacham on Brian WIlliams show on msnbc talking about the speech. and mEachman said one reason for Trump doing all of this is because he is expecting something to happen and this is an early response to it.

he didn't mention this but i thought of how Schwarzenegger went on Jay leno's when running for governor and talked about negative media and how they will claim things . this way when it happens he can just say "i told you so" and the dumbasses will fall for it.

of course we found out all the shit on arnold was true.

but meacham was saying trump may be doing the same. trump always does it but maybe in this case it's about something more specific .

1. Maybe because Mueller

is creeping closer to Grifter 45 and family? Tick tick tick...

2. He has been laying down the groundwork so that when it is

"us against him" his dumbest base will side with him since he has been telling them all along that it is the fake news who is guilty of anything bad that happens as a result of his actions as the fake prez.

I wonder how he will blame the findings of Mueller's investigation on the press.

3. Smearing the media before the bad news coming.

"If you wound the messenger, if you discredit the messenger to whom the vast majority of Americans turn then you raise skepticism, you raise doubt about whatever is reported. You make the point that that could harm him as he attempts to fulfill his constitutional oath. I'm being a little more cynical at this hour, which is: I think that might be part of the plan."

4. Meacham is usually very cautious and even-handed. Often a nay-sayer. So, he's reliable.

He's not one of the hot-heads: He doesn't go for the blood. He's always sticking to the dry facts without sensationalizing.

I trust him.

5. That does appear to be the case.

The eclipse pulled back the curtain...
