Summary
Chuck Todd argues that Donald Trump is rapidly spending his political capital by prioritizing revenge and culture wars over governance.
His controversial cabinet picks, like Matt Gaetz and Pete Hegseth, signal instability and risk alienating voters who supported him as a rejection of Biden, not an endorsement of Trumpism.
Todd warns that perceived overreach, like aggressive culture war policies or erratic mass deportation plans, could lead to public backlash and erode Trump’s support.
Without delivering stability and results, his presidency could quickly face the same challenges as Biden’s.
Didn’t this all happen last time we elected him too, and then his cabinet was total chaos for four years? I feel like this is all kinda familiar.
Yup.
One headline after another about how much trouble Trump was getting himself into by pulling stunts like this, and little to no consequences for it.
I got a sneaky suspicion that the “Liberal Media” actually loves him. They can make millions on low effort rage bait headlines for the next four years.
