re: #110 Weaselone

It’s not effective because the counter talking point/tweet is even more effective and devastating from the point of view of Trump’s base of support. They don’t give a crap that he’s corrupt and they personally like Putin. What hurts him with his base is when he looks weak and to a lesser extent incompetent.

If the rules and conventions of traditional politics and diplomacy applied to Trump, that would be true, but up to now, he has been somehow immune to any of the consequences of his (in)actions.
