He didn't make the hard decisions, he played by the rules. We need someone who recognizes that we are either at hot war or submission to tyranny. This isn't politics as usual.
I kept saying that until I had to come to terms with the fact that his terrible judgment allowed him to keep shitty advisers like Kushner around. He willingly surrounded himself with the system and its cogs. Trump simply wasn't Machiavellian enough to survive in politics.
Trump did all he could. Pretty hard to get much accomplished when the entire system is constantly kneecapping you.

Trump willfully gave his time to Bob Woodward expecting something other than a total hatchet job.
Think about that.
He did a lot of good, but he wanted too much to be liked by the establishment.
Well said. It explains why he says he’s still cool w Bill Clinton too. He sat w Bob for 9 sessions for hours!!!!
He very much did not do all he could. He sat there and took it like a the stapler guy from Office space.
