The chief executive of one of the most hardcore pro-Trump outlets in America lashed out at the president this week, stating that Donald Trump appears weak and rudderless on economic issues following a Democratic sweep in last weeks off-year elections.
Sean Davis, the CEO of The Federalist, took to X on Sunday afternoon to blast both Trump and Republicans for not adequately addressing the concerns many Americans have about the continued rise in inflation and the cost of housing.
While Democrats made affordability the central issue in last Tuesdays elections, Trump called it a con job invented by his political opponents while insisting that prices were actually coming down. The reason I dont want to talk about affordability everybody knows it is far less expensive under Trump than it was under sleepy Joe Biden, he said last week, a day after declaring: I dont want to hear about the affordability.
Davis, who has regularly defended the president and his administration, first took aim at congressional Republicans on their strategy right now, claiming that whoever is advising them has an IQ barely approaching room temperature. According to the right-wing media figure, the GOP has no accomplishments, no plans, and no vision for America at the moment, warning that this could lead to massive defeats in the 2026 midterm elections.

His "vision" was filling his pockets. That is all.

He has no "vision" other than lining his own pockets and playing golf.
Sean Davis is completely tone deaf. A blithering idiot Trump boot licker. Probably never heard the word "groceries" before, just like his wet dream cult hero.

Knowing that poor Donny is not of sound mind, plus Donny knows the score...he's going to make many mistakes now.
In other words..The Son-of-a-bitch is going to play his final movie moment. "I..I don't remember or recall my past"
I'd try to explain my past but....I'm foggy and not well......
He'll try for an Academy Award to make people feel sorry for him.
I could be all wrong but I wouldn't pass him to do some late night poor-me.

(7,408 posts)Trump has no vision for the future, never had it, never lost it.
And to repeat "everybody knows it is far less expensive under Trump than it was under sleepy Joe Biden is just beyond the pale.

Anyone who believed his bullshit was and is a complete jackass. He reads it out of the fascist/racist playbook.
In fact, he's a chatbot, programmed to do so.
