Trump Has Suffered Big Setbacks Recently

Here's a list of some of of his recent setbacks:

-- He tried to bribe the government of Ukraine into digging up dirt on Joe Biden. But he failed.

-- He tried to get the next G-7 meeting to take place at his Doral property. But he caved.

-- He tried to prevent the whistle-blowers complaint from becoming public knowledge. But it did.

-- He tried to de-legitimize the House Impeachment inquiry in the public's eyes. But he mostly failed.

-- He predicted that the impeachment inquiry would hurt the democrats politically. But so far the public opinion polls say the opposite.

-- He said that members of his administration wouldn't cooperate with the impeachment inquiry. But at least a dozen of them have defied him.

-- He made trips to several states to boost the chances of repug candidates in the recent elections. But most of those candidates lost.

If anyone wants to add to the list, please do so.

when he ventured outside his bubble of sycophants and worshipers.

He also didn't get the boost in approval ratings he hoped for after the killing of Al Bagdaddy.

That we weren't letting him "enjoy" his presidency?

I still get a big laugh out of that.
