republicon worrying gets more serious

'Trump World boils over as campaign hits skids

President Trump’s allies are urging him to change his tone and key figures in the campaign’s orbit are pointing fingers over who is to blame for the president’s spiraling poll numbers with just over four months to go until Election Day.

There is frustration in Trump World over the president's lack of discipline and his confrontational tone during a time of high anxiety over the coronavirus and civil unrest around the death of George Floyd while in police custody.'

1) Trump
2) the entire Republican Party for never, ever balking at Trump.
3) Look in a mirror, nitwit. You jumped into a mud pit and now you're figuring out who to blame for why you're covered in mud?

Actually, I've been asking the same question since Shrub's coup and Iraq Attack - and a brazillian times over with SHITLER: How come little ole me, just picking off news from non-sophisticated media outlets, can figure out that these specimens are the worst of the worst while all these SO smart people at the top level of power with access to all the specialized, most sophisticated resources CAN'T FIGURE OUT SHRUB OR SHITLER?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1


******** I'm just at the bottom of the knowledge/news food chain, am the recipient of just the *biggest* chucks (not tiny, nuanced bits) of information that manages to filter down to my level. I try to keep up with what everybody talks about, yes, gave the KARDASHIANs a chance of looking at about two seasons to see what the heck they were about (oddly, they're a little, sort of "nice" ). And long before SHITLER was even a gleam of a nightmare possibility as president, I looked at a couple of seasons of Apprentice, and saw him and his a-hole senior kids as pretentious, overbearing, martinets, and then put their circus and them out of my mind. Except at Burlington's, when just the SIGHT of SHITLER's label of shirts and ties made me gag to run to a different aisle. And I'd be reminded of them when their junk products were mocked for being Made in China by exploitation of Labor. Yes, that's where I gather my "clues" and I skim the horoscope, too.

So why can't The Powerful and pundits - not to mention Supporters - figure things out?!1

They don't really want the little people to know why. The answer is that republicans don't represent the interest of the voters, they represent the interests of the doners. Period.
