Why Donald Trump’s Quick Fixes Are Making Things Worse.

,

24 days until the US Midterms.

Donald Trump knows he is screwed, screwed, screwed.

But he used to have the ability to win by the skin of his teeth. He won the 2016 presidential election even though he didn’t win the popular vote. He saw a sliver of opportunity and seized it, and has played the same game throughout his presidency. Even the 2024 election has him win by less than one percent to his rival.

Trump doesn’t win by a wide margin. He wins by a whisker.

And he honestly thought the 2026 Mid-terms would be no different. Screw up, and then pull a rabbit out of your hat at the last second and, ta da!, the magic happens.

But it’s not working. It’s actually backfiring.

The price of diesel is through the roof thanks to his ridiculous war with Iran.

So Trump thought making a deal with Russia was going to solve the problem: no one will care where the gas comes from…except Russia is in a long-term war with the Ukraine who have the capability to sabotage everything and drive up the price even more.

Trump thought if he economically terrorizes Canada, they would give away everything away to the US for pittance.

And that didn’t work so good. Sending operatives to try to break up the country won’t work either, Donny.

He tried to get potash from Belarus to screw over Canada. That also didn’t work out.

Trump doesn’t understand you can ambush someone once, but once you are flagged as untrustworthy, people build a fortress around themselves.

Everything he touches turns to a cow flap right before he steps in it.

He can’t bring prices down. Not in 24 days. He can’t bribe his way out, either. Offering $90 bucks when inflation is eating away income is an insulting joke.

The walls are closing in fast.

A live execution isn’t going to save his hide. Nothing at this point will. He is a lame duck president who alienated allies, started wars, ignored the Constitution, and sounds like trailer park trash.

Not a good look, Donnie. Not a good look at all.
