Opinion | Trump’s Worst Enemy? Himself.

This proper now is likely to be the high-water mark at this level of Trump’s stature with the general public. I don’t see it going up in any significant sense. I believe it’s going to proceed to go down as a result of there’s mismanagement of the federal authorities, there’s the fabric stuff. After which there’s the very fact, as you level out, Michelle, that each time any form of scandal comes up, they appear to make themselves look red-handed. Taking Lauren Boebert into the Scenario Room and making an attempt to place the screws on her simply doesn’t simply make you look responsible. It makes it appear to be you will have printed a e-book titled ‘If I Did It,’ proper. It places you into late interval O.J. territory. So I don’t actually perceive how issues are ever going to get higher for them. I believe that that’s proper. I imply, I’ll say, clearly, there are occasions that may happen. Right here’s a wild card. One of many issues that would really find yourself serving to Trump fairly a bit is that if the Supreme Courtroom strikes down his tariffs, as a result of proper now a Trump coverage is a large drag on the economic system. So I believe if the Supreme Courtroom reverses the tariffs, you may really see a burst of financial exercise and optimism that might be despite Trump, not due to Trump, however that he as a result of presidents at all times profit from a constructive financial improvement. So I may see that there are occasions sooner or later that I may think about serving to Trump. Occasions. What I can not see serving to Trump is Trump. Who I can not see serving to Trump is MAGA.
