Washington Post…

…about Trump in his closing days in office through recent months is all about damage control. He recruited young and naive staff because they are malleable. But, he is focused on 2024. He appears at rallies because that is the imagine he wants. It also is a battleground whereby it fends off criticism. He only can be criticized directly for his words in a place where critics are political opponents including media. All the other harsh realities of his legal issues are fought by others and Trump remains aloof and removed. It would be best and just if he was seen in a “perp walk.” His imagine would take on another perspective.

His mishandling of our documents is typical of the continued lack of respect for the country.

Two things bother me, the Helsinki meeting and the image he carries as a potential monarch that will listen to the people and bend to their will. Trump as a monarch would never care about the people and surround himself with security so he was untouchable. I have a hard time believing Ukraine and US lack of response was never discussed. I think the plan for Ukraine was laid out as well as NATO.
