the question is why would he do it

it gains him nothing and harms him if it becomes a news cycle thing

It's obviously stupid to say and proof that his political instincts aren't as good as he thinks. There's a reason everyone tells him to stick to the script now.

See: The Boy Who Cried Wolf. Liars will not be believed even when they're telling the truth.

Assuming Trump is lying every time he opens his mouth saves a lot of research time with very few retractions.

It seriously takes like five seconds on Google and this fake controversy has been going for at least an hour now. Journalists are saying things they have to know aren't true because it fits the narrative at this point. I don't think he deserves better treatment, but maybe the public does if anyone still wants to pretend journalistic standards are real. On the other hand, the press helped to create him, so if they're overreacting out of self-loathing I can't say I blame them.

I think he is a politician on the level of FDR. As one of the only Trump supporters, I think it would be more prudent of you to pick a topic of attack.

I disagree, respectfully. FDR was an iconoclast politician, everything he did was wrong. He also made America what it is today, despite pressure that exists today. FDR won WW2. He was elected 4 years in a row for a reason. He PUNKED on people who were against him.

I am a born leftist but when it comes down to it I don't care about left and right. I care about what improves our lives. There will be hipsters against me and maybe probations but we are going to make America great again.

I'm not being a dick I'm just genuinely confused at what trump is the next fdr means.

So concept : Inc
Execution : d+, not very snappy or catchy. Kind of clumsy. Maybe a redraft is in order if you don't want to scrap the whole thing.

Just read his post, bro.

He made America what it is today, despite the pressure that exists today. He was elected for four years in a row. FDR won WW2.

What more do you need to know???

But wait... If FDR made America what it is today, and Trump will Make America Great Again, doesn't that mean FDR Made America Not Great, and that Trump is the Anti-FDR? Makes u think.
