It will go down in history as the “Bah! Humbug!” address.
But this was not an address by a self-confident man dishing out Christmas presents to the nation. It smacked of desperation from one who can feel the December windchill of opinion polls – a Reuters/ Ipsos poll on Tuesday showed just 33% of US adults approve of how Trump has handled the economy – dissent in his own Republican ranks and the Jeffrey Epstein files looming on Friday.
The speech also revealed Trump’s need for a reliable foil. Over the years Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have been useful nemeses for a man and movement defined less by what they are for than what they are against.
Pretty sure she perspnally benefitted from being on the ship and hasn’t had any negative repercussions.
She’s made a little money but not enough to live the kind of lifestyle she wants if she ever really pisses off her rich friends and gets cut off, anytime she goes out in a crowd she has to deal with the fact that probably 30-40% of it hates her guts, and in 80-100 years she’s going to be dead and everything she’s done will have crumbled away to nothing because she’s way too stupid to build anything that would last.
Oh, and while she was making an ass of herself in public her husband dumped her. Don’t care how much money you have and how many sex workers you hire after that, that’s gonna sting.
