recoveries have an up and a down. The up part never sustains forever. Soon enough it inevitably starts sliding back down, equalizing or moderating. Wha goes up must come down. Its cyclical. I suspect thats why hes angling for war now. I think he knows he needs that poll boost that the wrong-wing mighty Wurlitzer will crank up to push public opinion to stand by our president. Were at war! We HAVE TO stand by OUR president!!!
I suspect he or his advisors or Brad Parscale remember what happened to dubya. A war last time silenced the bush/cheney critics - at least for awhile. And George the Second saw his poll numbers go way up. It was after 9/11 and Man-oh-Man did that boost his numbers. Almost the whole nation wanted to go kick somebodys ass internationally for what happened on September 11th. And dubya delivered. Bombing the crap out of Afghanistan and then beating the PR drums nonstop to spread it to Iraq. And then kept that war cranking as the clock ticked toward what he hoped would be his re-election. And it worked.
We got PLAYED. BIGTIME. And we have to hope we wont get fooled again. Maybe the MAGAts will allow themselves to get fooled. But the rest of us better not. And always remember: there are MORE of US than there are of the MAGAts. Thats why his numbers will NEVER grow higher than the mid-40s. Because the majority is NOT with him.
I bet hes betting that a war could change that.
