I like MTG, but why the public fight?

Trump had already attacked her. The social post I quoted was after the TV interview.

Why spill your guts on "The View" and 60 Minutes and trash President Trump?

I see it quite differently.

First of all, I don't like 60 Minutes either but Fox probably wouldn't ask any hardball questions or would deflect the fight, and the independent networks like Newsnation don't have the same reach. The other two major networks have nothing like a stand alone serious interview show in prime time.

So, she has different ideas about what he should be doing as President. So what?

She pretty much totally staked her political career on proximity to Trump and MAGA. Helped him get elected. Then Trump had declared her to be "cast out". She claims she started getting overt threats, and he scoffed at it.

Trump stabbed her not in the back but in the face in full public view. He's pretty much slandering her constantly, so IMO she wanted to get her side out.

IOW, MTGs' move with 60 Minutes was totally proportional. It's pure personality shit, sure. But she did not throw the first personal punch.

My overall point was that Trump initiated a pointless distracting fight that does nothing but divide the base, and for what with so many much bigger problems going on. That was my point.

I agree with her that Trump hasn't concentrated enough on domestic issues, but she doesn't consider the cards he was dealt.

You have no idea what she considers or not (I don't either.) I kinda tend to think that she knows the environment too.

Biden left a world at war and Trump had to deal with it. He works tirelessly to handle our out of control world.

That is dangerously close to Trump fart sniffing, sorry. He's just doing what comes to mind. Working tirelessly? Hard to tell. (I agree about Biden, not on the presumption of Trump's focus.)

Example: I have absolutely no idea why the US intervening in the trade routes of foreign nations that don't even affect us that as anything to do with capturing an oil tanker. We committed piracy with that capture. And we're about to enter Venezuela.

Trump is more of a war president than we've had since Bush while campaigning as "America First" and a peace maker. Venezuela regime change doesn't help me or any other American one bit (unless you own defense stock.)

I don't like his insults at all and think he should clean up his act. More later . . .

We both agree on that point. It's not 2017, memes and insults are no longer cute. We've graduated to shanks and bullets as a society.
