Trump’s Refusal To Shut Up Is a Winning Strategy.

So, here we are, ten days short of nine years since Donald Trump first out himself into the political world and became a target of the Fake News media, and the so-called experts who are supposed to be able to explain political events to the rest of us dummies, still haven’t figured Trump out.

The latest example, actually I’ll give you two examples were the interview Trump gave to a Milwaukee newspaper in which he held out the possibility of not accepting the results of the upcoming election if he didn’t win, and his continued refusal to shut his mouth and abide by the gag order issued by Judge Juan Merchan in the hush-money trial currently being held in New York.

What I don’t understand about the Fake News is that no matter how many times Trump would say the same thing over and over again, Fake News would report it as another, unique news event. Trump started complaining about the 2020 election being fixed during the Summer of 2020, to the point that this narrative became the messaging centerpiece of his entire campaign.

Not only did Trump bitch and moan about campaign ‘fraud’ virtually ten or more times every single day, but the volume and frequency of his whining only increased after the results of the election were put to bed.
