Our supposed gladiator of a President spends much of his day reacting to cable news criticism of himself. Is there anything more beta than having your entire life outlook dictated by the whims of the media? Like an abused lover, they can slap him around for months, eliciting his rage, but one positive story will have him on his back purring your praises. Dare to not tow the line on even the smallest issue? Well, that’ll earn you an angry tweet and proclamations of your irrelevance, even as his response shows he did indeed find you relevant.Media approval is cat-nip to this guy. He dances like a puppet on a string for anyone who offers him a hint of positive coverage. Beta. rump is now taking twitter orders from Nancy Pelosi and letting Chuck Schumer dictate his agenda. When you are getting dominated by a guy who would break into tears watching Homeward Bound, you aren’t an alpha male. “But he’s sticking it to Paul Ryan!” they tell me. Because when you want to “stick” it to someone on your team, running to the opposing team and telling them to punch you makes perfect sense. That just screams alpha. After rescinding DACA, it took about 12 hours of criticism for him to back down and signal he wouldn’t follow through on his threats. He went to twitter to announce he’d “revisit” the unconstitutional order if Congress didn’t act, effectively handing over all his leverage for no reason .Allahpundit @allahpundit t.co 8:33 PM - Sep 5, 2017 On healthcare, President Trump has effectively given up . He keeps irrationally shouting about the filibuster, even as the filibuster has nothing to do with the continued failure of the Senate’s attempts at repeal. Does anyone have faith tax reform will resemble anything worth having at this point? On his coveted border wall, he’s managed to get basically no concessions except some already existing funding for research. Just two weeks after saying he’d shut down the government in order to see the wall built, he backed down and agreed to raise the debt ceiling with no conditions at all. North Korean dictator Kim Jung Un continues to cross his red line, laid out in his “fire and fury comments” as being continued threats. Trump’s reaction? Meh.Beta. redstate.com
