Even those who may disagree with most of President Donald Trump’s agenda, actions, rhetoric / vitriol, and priorities should not: underestimate his apparent ability to read your main supporters, and appeal directly to them, both with their words and with their deeds. Close observers recognize his constant pattern, of beginning, in a somewhat daring way, blaming and complaining about others (usually, whether it be President Obama, the Democrats, or some foreign nation, etc.), avoiding personal responsibility (never apologizing , etc.), lying and denying, and changing his narrative, as conditions change, and he feels, he adapts to his purpose! His opponents often seem to proceed, in an overconfident manner, rejection his ability to motivate and inspire his loyal fans. Are you crazy or just cunning, like a fox? With that in mind, this article will briefly attempt to consider, examine, review, and discuss 5 examples of changes in your narrative.
1. Russia: The combination of his apparent close relationship with Russia’s Putin and what most of our intelligence agencies believed and reported, which was Russian interference, in the 2016 elections, and the apparent attempts, both in 2018, and beliefs, they plan to do it, again, in 2020, it has alarmed a lot of people! Despite the efforts of Attorney General William Barr, a close reading of the Mueller Report states that, although it did not obtain sufficient evidence (largely due to the administration’s lack of cooperation), of cooperation between the Trump campaign and Russia. , There was clear evidence of Russian involvement! The narrative, used, was various versions of, calling it a hoax, a political witch hunt, and stating that the report totally exonerated him!
two. Ukraine: Much attention was paid to Ukraine, in large part because of the close ties between Paul Manafort, the sole chairman of the campaign, and that nation. In this incident, the game plan seemed to deflect attention from this, stating that the son of his likely Democratic opponent, Hunter Biden, had deals / conflicts, due to his previous employment, in a Ukrainian company.
3. Flynn: From initially sending Michael Flynn out to campaign for him, to briefly hiring him to be part of his administration, to Flynn’s plea deal and subsequent attempts to claim, he was pressured to agree. , this president made the decision Unusual step, that his Department of Justice, decided to withdraw the indictment, after the agreement was already accepted! Since, when he fired him, Trump claimed he did, because Flynn lied, his narrative changed, to refer to the man, in glowing terms, and claim that he was treated unfairly.
Four. Response to a pandemic: While this horrible virus was certainly not his fault, his answer should be, something he should be responsible for! Paying insufficient attention to early warnings, calling it a hoax, like a snort, or disappearing soon is now obvious, after more than 3 million infected Americans and nearly 140,000 deaths of our citizens and residents, he must be held accountable. by how he handled it. How long did it take you, before declaring, the values of wearing a mask, and how did that impact, the refusal of your main supporters, to wear them?
5. Infrastructure and relations with Congress: In recent memory, we have never witnessed so much polarization and partisan politics as we have recently! Campaigning to improve the nation’s infrastructure, he met with Senate Minority Leader Schumer and House Speaker Pelosi, supposedly, to agree to move forward, only to back down, almost immediately! Wouldn’t it make sense to focus on improving the nation’s infrastructure, as a long-term sustainable priority, and as a way to boost the economy?
Wake up America and don’t be fooled again! Learn important lessons, from the election of someone to the highest office in the country, who apparently cared more about his personal / political agenda and self-interest than the common good.
