what if NK leads to nothing, then

2018-03-29 15:16:35 UTC

what then does Trump do to swoon over the low-info voters

2018-03-29 15:16:36 UTC

Then he won't get a lot of support among independents

2018-03-29 15:16:38 UTC

I never brought up NK on case it doesn't lol

2018-03-29 15:16:58 UTC

Because there's s chance it wont

2018-03-29 15:17:26 UTC

What else would give him a lot of moderate/independent support exactly?

2018-03-29 15:17:32 UTC

But Kim seems pretty adamant on capitulating, Trump's sanctions have gutted their economy

2018-03-29 15:17:34 UTC

Let me put in this some perspective

2018-03-29 15:17:44 UTC

Is there anything, I dunno,

2018-03-29 15:17:51 UTC

It has to be something which is unprecedented in the eyes of the masses.

2018-03-29 15:17:56 UTC

Obama could do to you to make you like him as a President?

2018-03-29 15:18:01 UTC

suppose he still was,

2018-03-29 15:18:02 UTC

Nuremburg 2.0

2018-03-29 15:18:03 UTC

for just a moment

2018-03-29 15:18:12 UTC

I'm far right

2018-03-29 15:18:27 UTC

I'm not exactly an independent

2018-03-29 15:18:31 UTC

Yeah lol

2018-03-29 15:18:32 UTC

Maybe some space related thing?

2018-03-29 15:18:32 UTC

If pizzagate turns out to be true, if Hillary Clinton gets arrested, and/or if a huge scandal involving all of the democrat senators comes out, the Dems will be anally fucked and lose a lot of seats.@

2018-03-29 15:18:43 UTC

Okay,

2018-03-29 15:18:45 UTC

Nah

2018-03-29 15:18:50 UTC

@๐ŸŽƒBoo-ton๐ŸŽƒ lol I'm sure that a lot of GOP voters would like Obama if he built the wall, cut taxes massively, reversed Roe V Wade, et cetera

2018-03-29 15:18:53 UTC

you suppose you don't care about policy

2018-03-29 15:18:58 UTC

They'll still win, scandals don't touch democrats

2018-03-29 15:19:07 UTC

suppose you only care about rhetoric and presentation

2018-03-29 15:19:08 UTC

Menendez is set to win again

2018-03-29 15:19:12 UTC

If he suddenly turned hard right and built a wall and revoked birthright citizenship then I'd support him

2018-03-29 15:19:21 UTC

Trump is crass and crude,

2018-03-29 15:19:26 UTC

to but it mildly,

2018-03-29 15:19:39 UTC

Independents don't like that in the Presidency,

2018-03-29 15:19:53 UTC

they want the President to be a man they can have their children look up to

2018-03-29 15:19:56 UTC

for inspiration

2018-03-29 15:19:58 UTC

Letโ€™s say a picture emerged of a democrat senator literally raping a child

2018-03-29 15:20:04 UTC

Who tells their kids,

2018-03-29 15:20:22 UTC

"You can grow up to be like President Trump one day?"

2018-03-29 15:20:32 UTC

I don't know, he gets a dog or something like that? He does more SOTU speeches?

2018-03-29 15:20:38 UTC

@Rhodesiaboo that'd work

2018-03-29 15:20:46 UTC

One every year

2018-03-29 15:20:57 UTC

I'm not sure Trump is willing to undergo a change in character

2018-03-29 15:21:10 UTC

I think Trump enjoys the sort of chaos in the White House

2018-03-29 15:21:32 UTC

the controversy, the turmoil,

2018-03-29 15:21:47 UTC

Independents, man

2018-03-29 15:21:48 UTC

remember, Trump was a game show host, essentially

2018-03-29 15:21:54 UTC

If his behavior can become legitimized by something, some major problem no one can fix that he did, then he can get independent support.

2018-03-29 15:21:56 UTC

he's into this sort of thing

2018-03-29 15:21:58 UTC

Get to the point Mash

2018-03-29 15:22:26 UTC

Trump needs to recede into the wallpaper

2018-03-29 15:22:39 UTC

What do you mean?

2018-03-29 15:22:45 UTC

he need blend into the woodwork,

2018-03-29 15:22:58 UTC

He needs to be like an average president?

2018-03-29 15:23:00 UTC

stop being in the headlines all the time

2018-03-29 15:23:04 UTC

yes, sorta

2018-03-29 15:23:07 UTC

That'll never change

2018-03-29 15:23:09 UTC

not in terms of policy

2018-03-29 15:23:16 UTC

The media will have him in the headlines

2018-03-29 15:23:20 UTC

No matter what

2018-03-29 15:23:25 UTC

If not him the GOP

2018-03-29 15:23:30 UTC

"He needs to be like an average president?"

lol he's much better off NOT being an average President

2018-03-29 15:23:36 UTC

Yeah

2018-03-29 15:23:45 UTC

but,

2018-03-29 15:23:52 UTC

look at his approval numbers

2018-03-29 15:23:54 UTC

one of his strengths is that he's so eccentric

2018-03-29 15:23:55 UTC

they're awful

2018-03-29 15:23:57 UTC

>approval numbers

2018-03-29 15:24:11 UTC

his approval numbers were shit in 2016 too

2018-03-29 15:24:15 UTC

and polls show Americans largely support Trump's policies

2018-03-29 15:24:18 UTC

Another would be if a Picture emerged of a democrat senator meeting with a Mexican Cartel leader or a Islamic Terrorist leader and trading stuff.

2018-03-29 15:24:19 UTC

he doesn't need to bring them up by disappearing

2018-03-29 15:24:28 UTC

it's clear we need to capitalize on the Democrats' fuck ups

2018-03-29 15:24:29 UTC

Again, approval numbers are extremely unreliable, and haven't held up to historical tests

2018-03-29 15:24:31 UTC

his disapproval is rooted in character concerns

2018-03-29 15:24:39 UTC

like the fact that they're screwing up right now when it comes to the 2nd amendment

2018-03-29 15:24:45 UTC

also I love Trump for his character

2018-03-29 15:24:56 UTC

more politicians should be like him

2018-03-29 15:24:57 UTC

The problem isnโ€™t the Republicans, the republicans have a high approval rating of him. The problem is that he is so abhorred by the democrats.

2018-03-29 15:24:58 UTC

well, of course you do, you're from New York

2018-03-29 15:25:03 UTC

Yeah we didn't elect someone presidential, that was the point

2018-03-29 15:25:05 UTC

"well, of course you do, you're from New York"

yep

2018-03-29 15:25:20 UTC

Obama was "Presidential"

2018-03-29 15:25:24 UTC

Hilary was very presidential

2018-03-29 15:25:30 UTC

Really?

2018-03-29 15:25:35 UTC

I don't want any more feminist white knights in the Oval Office again

2018-03-29 15:25:35 UTC

Yeahl

2018-03-29 15:25:42 UTC

Look,

2018-03-29 15:25:43 UTC

She was the wife of a president who literally raped women

2018-03-29 15:25:43 UTC

Look at her debate diction

2018-03-29 15:25:46 UTC

depends on how yo udefine Presidential, of course

2018-03-29 15:25:48 UTC

being presidential,

2018-03-29 15:25:55 UTC

doesn't mean having to be a cuck,

2018-03-29 15:25:59 UTC

or a pushover,

2018-03-29 15:26:02 UTC

Bill was still presidential in he public eyes

2018-03-29 15:26:16 UTC

Trump can be presidential and still be a fighter

2018-03-29 15:26:16 UTC

The point is his behavior has to be legitimized by something, and that will bring up his approval rating.

2018-03-29 15:26:24 UTC

for instance,

2018-03-29 15:26:42 UTC

when Trump called out that WaPo journalist for lying about his Florida rally size?

2018-03-29 15:26:52 UTC

This entire discussion is a fucking waste of time, we are not going to change Trump, let's focus on what we can actually effect.

2018-03-29 15:26:53 UTC

that was a moment it was justified for Trump to attack the media

2018-03-29 15:27:00 UTC

Obamaโ€™s approval rating was by 2015, at 40%, heading down to the 30s

2018-03-29 15:27:19 UTC

If Trump is going to attack someone, it should at least be justified and specific

2018-03-29 15:27:23 UTC

Yeah Obama had terrible approval ratings until he left office
