In other words, the answer to my question doesn't serve your agenda, so you won't answer.

I guess some of that (seeking success via victim status) happens on both sides. But it's like a currency on the left these days, it's constant. It never stops among the democrat leaders, among the media, and Hollywood.

The guy needs help, and looks like a prime suspect for suicide to me.

I do my taxes soon, and will then book some fishing trips for spring/summer. Can't get here fast enough.

The core strategy of his re-election campaign, will be the economy. Character, I suppose, will not be a key theme.

He is a victim. It takes a lot of work to make a guy that gross, appear sympathetic, but the left has done it. Because they can't be fair. And by "fair", I don't mean to follow Sean Hannity's lead and lick his boots all day. "Fair" means criticize him when he deserves it, compliment him when he deserves it. The left can't come close to doing that.

Look at the democrat Congressional reaction to good news presented during the SOTU. They were absolutely miserable that good things took place during Trumps presidency. I'm not saying that Republicans didn't want Obama to fail, of course they did. But they weren't this overt, it wasn't all they did.

Eisenhower?

Not many have the character issues Trump has. But his character isn’t as bad as the left wants us to believe. but his policies have mostly been very good.
