tomluongo | Trump’s strengths and weaknesses as a political player have been on
full display from the beginning. And he’s made a number of errors which
have cost him dearly to this point.
Most of these have to do with foreign policy, which I have outlined
in gory detail nearly every day for three years. And it was these
deals he’s made on foreign policy, outsourcing it to advisers like H.R.
McMaster, John Bolton and James Mattis, to gain time to deal with his
domestic enemies that have done the most damage.
I think Trump now sees the traps set for him and how badly they will
boomerang on him this election season. He’s begun changing course on
issues like Iran, Syria and, yes, Ukraine.
And for this he is now being targeted, quite amateurishly, for removal from office. Of this I’m convinced at this point.
Since Ukraine cuts across so many different narratives of the past
few years, going all the way back to 2013 EU accession talks, it is no
wonder that President Trump calls to the new Ukrainian President, who
isn’t one of ‘our guys’ like Poroshenko was, would be heavily
scrutinized.
Anything that sniffed even vaguely like Presidential overreach would
be used against Trump to remove him from office. This is the standard
Alinsky tactic of accusing your opponent of what you are guilty of to
de-legitimize any information that comes out of the investigation.
This tactic is nothing new. It’s all they ever do folks, because Trump has already proven he’s immune to ‘Nuts and Sluts.‘
