OK. Silly question. MF45 needs to win OH to be re-elected.

How does, "Don't buy Goodyear tires" fit in?

Trump is no political genius. He is a malignant narcissist, and it is through this lens that all of his decisions are made. No forethought on his actions? Of course not! It is all about right now and how he is being affected. Wait for the walkback, probably from his underlings.

On the Senate Intel report.

It's a silly 48 hour story designed to distract from impeachable hard news.

In two weeks he will visit a Goodyear factory and say, "I never said boycott Goodyear, I said 'buy more' Goodyear".

At a very basic sub human level it is quite genius.
