His only focus is the WH. If he thought singing kumbaya naked on a surf board would get him the votes he’d do it. I firmly believe his attacks on business will back fire. He has picked fights with the cruise line industry, the Mouse, social media, and most recently investment firms. It plays well with his base but I don’t see it translating to national support from the corporate sector.
