In a carefully manicured, four-day conference in which Donald Trump’s chief lieutenants hailed him as the embodiment of stability and JB Biden as the pieder-piper of race riots, the president always does the same: he accidentally disposed of his team’s message. Service of Nursing Personal Gruds.
This week, it was about how his brain isn’t dying.
“They have no end!” President Tweeted On Tuesday, in the denial of reporting and by speculation that his reasoning for going to Walter Reed in November was bogus cover for a more serious process. “Now they are trying to say that your favorite president, I, went to Walter Reed Medical Center, there were many mini-strokes. This has never happened with a candidate – fake news. “
The pushback didn’t end there. Some of Trump’s top officials were soon admitted to help in efforts to reassure the public that the president’s brain is, indeed, working incredibly. Shortly after Trump’s outburst about “mini-strokes,” his re-election campaign called on CNN to fire an analyst who asked his Twitter followers if the president was hiding a previous stroke from the American public.
“CNN should just fire Llocker Kahrt, who believes in a lifelong failure, that it’s a great idea to put that stupid helmet on by Michael Dukakis, who has lost so much to knowingly push for a conspiracy theory about President Trump’s health.” “If any other CNN employee said the same things about Barack Obama, they would be fired immediately, so the same standard should apply here.”
Lockhart, who serves as White House press secretary in the Clinton administration, denied he was spreading the information in a subsequent tweet, saying the post was “just a question.”
The president’s campaign brass went ahead and issued a statement knowing it would please the boss that it was not immediately clear what Trump himself ordered. But it was also largely immoral. A number of current and former senior aides say officials will often start making such end-of-mp statements even without the president’s clear direction, as they all know Trump is likely to demand such action.
“When you sign up for a job in com [Trump]”You sign to play defense on any nonsense,” said a senior administration official. “This includes aggressively repelling alleged or actual attacks on his mental health, which he has. [at times] Said it is an unbearable attack not only on him, but also on his administration and his supporters. “
This whole episode, on one level, was another window of doubt and insecurity that fed the President’s rise in the business and political worlds. He was also the latest example of why Democrats and many Republicans believe his campaign has stalled. Trump decided to turn the conversation into a topic that no one cares about, after trying to put his opponent on the defensive over riots and robberies in several cities. And that which was not particularly advantageous for his election prospects.
Biden’s presidential campaign was thrilled to play with the pragmatists, arguing that Trump’s focus on his own mental aggravation lies in his more pressing health failures: the coronavirus epidemic, which now weighs over 180,000 in the U.S. .
“Trump is running on his own watch,” said Andrew Bates, director of the Quick Response Biden Campaign. “The truth is, Donald Trump has failed our nation in such an unbelievable way that he is now the only president in American history for whom he may be the most likely to derail his self-destructive message with strange theories about ninjas and sudden literature about his health.” The closest thing is. Can win. “
Those who only reported Trump’s own rejection of “mini-struts” by the president were also targeted. When the Drod report – which went to zero on Hillary Clinton’s supposed health issues in 2016 – led to the venue on Tuesday with Trump’s outspoken refusal, Trump blew up again. He tweeted, “Dooze didn’t support me in 2016, and I hear he doesn’t support me anymore.” “Maybe that’s why he’s doing so badly. His fake news report on mini-strokes is false. Probably thinking about yourself, or the ‘candidate’ of the other party.
The president’s fixation in mind comes at the expense of the message of the Republican National Convention he once called “too good,” which was compromised last week. A recent tweet about “Jo Hidden”, when a new nickname that Trump appeared to be taking for a spin on Wednesday, highlighted the former vice president’s desire to eradicate the American lifestyle, RNC’s closing-night messaging – defaming the police and rioting in America. Biden is a Trojan horse for proposals for radicalization such as looting – he has now retreated following the president’s constant need for even the slightest revenge, one he even pulled out of thin air.
People close to Trump are not surprised by this turn, given how he consumes his emphasis on protecting his honor and appreciating his own health. For many years, his own physical and mental well-being has been a very mild topic for this president, which has resulted in him getting various long-term freakouts in public and behind closed doors.
Trump has privately complained to friends, family and aides New York Times Journalist Maggie Haberman accused him of having Parkinson’s disease this summer, according to two people with direct knowledge of the matter. The sources say the president has been dealing with the matter for about three months, and he still hasn’t let it go, like last week brought in the West Wing recently, one of the sources said.
Haberman, however, has not accused Trump of having Parkinson’s. In June, he wrote one Times The story of how “President Trump faced new questions about his health” after videos surfaced of him walking comfortably down the ramp at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and having trouble having a glass of water in his mouth during a speech there. ” The term does not appear in the word “Parkinson”, but in the mind of Trump, who somehow translated it to Heberman by tagging him with degenerative disorder.
The President focused on these issues during the final phase of his presidency in 2020 – and at a time when the coronavirus epidemic is raging, the U.S. economy is still reeling, and ethnic and civil unrest is spreading across the country. . Some longtime Republican activists, such as many of Trump’s own top advisers, have also given up trying to curb their candidate’s excesses.
“It’s not a prudent use of time, no,” said DP Haye, a PE GOP strategist and former top official of the Republican National Committee who has publicly registered his antipathy for the presidency. “But I think we saw many years ago that Donald Trump would not pivot. We said all these things would not work for Trump, but he won. Proving negative is hard to do around a second time. The answer to everything is, ‘You said I shouldn’t do these things and if I did these things I wouldn’t win, and I would win.’ ‘
Still, some of Trump’s own senior staff seem ready to turn the page on the president’s recent tilt. Arriving Wednesday night to comment on the story, Tim Murtou, the Trump campaign’s communications director, sent in a 122-word comment. However, none of them paid attention to the nature of the mental health scrutiny, and instead focused on what Trump’s message this week was supposed to be: primarily, the 2020 Democratic presidential candidate being blasted for being too “weak”. “Riots by left-wing criminals in governed cities” and “extremists in charge of their party and its campaign.”
