Trump right or wrong
Most people are not aware or have forgotten that Trump talked about a run for the White House going back to the late 1980’s and the was the butt of many jokes. In the White House Correspondents Dinner in 2011, Obama became famous showing off his comedic skills as he skewered and mocked Trump. He had the crowd roaring with laughter. Only a few years later the laughter continued as Trump announced his candidacy and was welcomed on programs like Morning Joe where he was roundly made fun of as he expounded on his unusual views of popular subjects. James Fallows claimed that the chance of a Trump nomination was exactly zero. Ben White said he would eat a bag of rusty nails if Trump won. Peter Fenn doubted Trump’s celebrity would translate into a primary win. Even experts in his own party considered him a joke as George Will dismissed his chances. The people who spent their lives becoming experts in the field of politics, were totally baffled by Trump and yet these people still maintain their positions as political guru’s. Every time Trump does something they immediately announce how it is the wrong thing. They seem incapable of reevaluating their original position regardless of how many times Trump makes the right move. To many readers these guru’s have lost credibility. No politician always makes the right move but sometimes they do. Trump has more right and wrong moves than most politicians because he makes more moves. He has so many irons in the fire that the press can hardly keep up.
