Playing as in running their campaign against. Playing as in the way you play the game against an opponent.
The death of a thousand cuts? Reversed with the stroke of the next President’s pen, the same Trump enacted them.
It’s fine, keep rising to the bait of Trump. Like today, the proposal on immigration. A non-starter in congress really, little if any chance to actually make it to actually getting signed to law let alone any legal challenges to it.
Trump like his business deals is running bulldozers to make and fill holes to make it seem like something is happening.
Nothing is happening. It’s all empty. Again, the best way to defuse what Trump is doing is not reacting and simply pointing out his proposals are all vaporware.
Can he do real lasting damage? Yes, he can. So far, it’s all hyperbole. But so far, Trump is like the WallStreet Bro telling us he’s a great ladies man, the reality is he’s the Wallstreet Bro humping the Fearless Girl statue.
Actually, he’s more a Beavis wishing he was the Wallstreet Bro humping the Fearless Girl.
