Trump's flaws - damaging every other R candidate to the point that the party was weakened,
Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but not their own facts.
Donald Trump breathed life back into the GOP --- a party well on its way to happily surrendering to Hillary Clinton.
failing to influence Congress when the R had both majorities
Actually, this was the handiwork of Paul Ryan. When he announced in the winter of 2018 that he was going to cut and run at the end of his term, Ryan spent the rest of the year convincing dozens of House Republicans to join him, tossing the Speakership to Nancy Pelosi. And we all know what she did with it.
evolving door personnel policies, hiring "only the best people" and then getting crossed with them and publicly slamming them, daily stupidity in social media, galactic narcissism - are not generally shared by all the other politicians, certainly not to the degree Trump has those flaws.
The vetting was overseen by his staff .... his Chief of Staffs and Vice President ----- deep-staters who were there to sabotage the man while hitching their wagons to Trump's star for their future political careers. Soft-spoken, good word for everyone, Mike Pence, was especially effective in this role. But, by all means, let's continue to call the target of the sabotage to account and let the perpetrators skate.
One last comment here .... Donald Trump is not going to be quiet because that's easier for you to handle.. He's not going to send you flowers, either.
And to Trump's credit, neither do those other politicians share the connection he established with so many voters.
75+ million and counting. Trum'p's bond with votes not only survived five years of lies, investigations, Republican sabotage, two impeachments and a stolen election ...... the bond grew stronger and the base grew.
Why? Because voters know him, relate to him and trust him.
This is NOT failure ---- well, not outside the inbreeding found in the RNCDNC and NT Uniparty.
