Karl Rove thinks Trump's numbers will go up if he "patiently explains" how he is ****ing America in the ***. USA! USA!

NONE of this REFLECTS REALITY. NONE of it. No thank you...I DON'T want some of what Rove is smoking.

1). "He has got to get those numbers up."

HOW? Because Trump's only way out of a hole is to double down and keep digging. He's ALREADY TOLD AMERICA that they reason they are PISSED OFF is that they have FAILED to show him the appropriate level of GRATITUDE.

2). “I am convinced a large part of it is going to be patiently explaining what it is he has done, explaining what is he wants to do particularly with regards to healthcare in a way that the American people can put their hand around it,” he added.

TRUMP LACKS THE ABILITY TO "PATIENTLY EXPLAIN" anything, and "what he has done" is to **** America in the *** while tearing down the East Wing and jerking off over his "ballroom plans." THAT'S WHAT HE'S "DONE."

3). Rove urged the president to “lower the expectations, and over-deliver” in his messaging to the American public.

"LOWER EXPECTATIONS?" I'd say they are pretty fucking low. "OVER DELIVER?" That's just not in Trump's DNA. He is FAR MORE LIKELY to UNDER-DELIVER and then crow and strut like a rooster about what a great job he did and how it's making big beefy men sob like infants.


“The president will end this year at the lowest approval rating in modern times for a president … in the first year after his inauguration," Rove told Fox News. "He has got to get those numbers up."

“I am convinced a large part of it is going to be patiently explaining what it is he has done, explaining what is he wants to do particularly with regards to healthcare in a way that the American people can put their hand around it,” he added.

Rove urged the president to “lower the expectations, and over-deliver” in his messaging to the American public.

“Under-promise and over-deliver ought to be the goal of the next year,” Rove said.

While Trump’s crap policies are making everyone go broke.
That doesn’t need explaining… it needs regime change.

Trump's message is: "I do not give one shit about this country. So, piss off!"

Has already "put his hand around it," all while looking at T****'s photo.

What a pompous jerk he is.

A few weeks back. Probably near one mill. He had Kamala signs in his yard. A new buyer has moved in and as I drive by yesterday, they were gone and a pickup truck window sticker caught my eye.
It said “Invade Greenland” with trump thumbs up. Another said “Media Censorship!!!”with a thumbs up as well. And based on the obvious value of the home, which just completed a hell of a lot of add on and new additions, this is not a normal broke ass MAGA.
It’s the rich asshole that are destroying the world from right here in MurKKKa.

doesn't do "patient explaining" or lowering of expectations.

But surely you know that.
