Shrinking the Republican base down to hard core Trumpers:

Rick Wilson?Verified account @TheRickWilson
8/ It's an experiment on shrinking the GOP base down to just the hardest of the hard core Trumpers. Wheee!

7/ his behavior on the grounds he'll be pro-business, pro-growth, etc, are in for a hard ride.

6/ The people who expected Trump the nihilist arsonist to burn DC down will get their wish. But the "economic anxiety" crowd who excuse...

5/ It will feed all of Trump's worst instincts and his worst behaviors. Expect loco Tweets. The lawyers must be losing their minds.

4/ War Rooms exploit information differentials and are most powerful when providing fast, countervailing facts. These guys will just nuke.

3/ ...already limited bandwidth & political capital. War Room + Rallies + 100% Attack Mode is a pure base play, which should tell you a lot.

2/ The War Room with Corey et al will likely cause more news than it manages. They'll start big fights that absorb more of the WH's...

1/ Here's my quick read on the WH reorg. As noted before, Trump is the problem. No staff solution exists for Trump.



Because Trump's unfitness is the problem, his Presidency will not improve. It will only get worse and worse and worse. The Presidency of Donald Trump will become about nothing but the person of Donald Trump. That is after all, the only thing (besides Ivanka perhaps) he cares about.


I remember seeing over a year ago, Trump assuring Hannity that soon he'd pivot to Presidential. It never happened, because he can't change and can't learn. He calls things fake news, then a day later confirms it as real on twitter. Hillary, a horrible candidate, was nevertheless able to manipulate him into bragging about not paying taxes. Rag him about something .. anything enough and he's compelled to brag about it.
