As a Trump supporter, I totally disagree with this article.

Trump Still Seems to Be Forgetting Politics 101 - American Greatness amgreatness.com/2020/04/24/tru…
Trump is practicing Politics 401. He is far above the freshman level course.
He is ignoring the far right and far left voices. He needs the Trump DEMOCRATS in PA, WI, MI, MN to win in Nov. Just like he got them in 2016. He needs the suburban GOP women vote as well as his base.

He is showing people that state and local elections matter. That you can't vote democrat at the local/state level and GOP at the federal level and not have problems. He is charting a very narrow path that is full of dangers. He could very easily sit back and just count on his...
...base to show up in NOV and hope it's a base election but that path is more dangerous. He is applying lessons learned in the mid-terms to create and add to his base. He is listening to both sides and making decisions. Fauci and Birx are not controlling him. Nor are the openup
...now people controlling him. He is hearing both sides. He understands the risks of the virus as well as the economic downturn. If he had 500k deaths on his hands he won't win. If he has a depression on his hands he won't win. He didn't support the GA gov because it's too soon.
He has supported some protests by saying he understands why they are protesting. He is hoping that protests from below while common sense moves from the top will break the back of these dem governors. That strategy could be in jeopardy, if states open up too much too soon.
If hotspots form in say GA then the dems will use it as an excuse to delay the re-opening. If Phase one goes well people will have confidence that the storm is over and quickly push their governors and states to re-open. It's a balancing act and the GOv of GA threatened the
..balance. Trump had no choice but to distance himself from the GA governors actions. By doing so Trump's plan is still in play. The phase one guidelines moving to phase two and then to full reopening. Trump understand the dems are using this virus to further their aims. Why give
....them additional ammo to stop his plans and strategy by moving too fast too far. The Gov of Ga might in the end be proven correct but his actions placed Trump is a very dangerous political position. Why would the Gov of Ga put Trump in that position?
As far as the couple of arrests of protesters goes, without the increased force used by the dem governors there would be no increase in protests. History is filled with how protests increase as more force is used to quash them. By Trump coming out and saying he "understands" the
...the protests, by him tweeting about liberation, by him calling out the over the top enforcement efforts; he is putting himself on "their" side while at the same time continuing to push the phase re-opening he is showing the other side worried about the virus that he has a
...plan approved by the "experts". By doing both, the dems and fake media can't exploit him on this issue and tear away the support from those dems and women he will need. They can't say he is ignoring the "experts" and/or "science" and be believable. The nevertrumpers in the
...GOPE can't say he is ignoring the economic impacts for the experts and be believable. Many of us want to re-open today but there are political risks for doing so, as well as, political risks for not doing so. You can't concentrate on only one set of risks and ignore the other
Trump is factoring in both sets of risk and charting a path between the two. Will it work? Who knows but it's one of the only ways he sees to accomplish his goal of winning the election.
