  1. He needs to put the budget on a trajectory to balance. Getting the economy rolling is key. But in his 2nd term, he needs to make a frontal assault on SPENDING.

  2. VDH has a bit of neocon taint, when it comes to war, but he's a decent scholar.

  3. It diverted attention from pay-to-play and Russian bribes to Hillary and others. It generated the Mueller investigation which was specifically told to stay away from anything non-Trump. I think they played it, masterfully, but it's going to blow up in their faces. By keeping Mueller strictly confined to all questions Trump, they left the field open to Trump's people to do all the looking at what THEY did. If Mueller team had had broader scope, they could've done more to sweep crimes of the Democrats under the carpet. But because Mueller studiously avoided any investigation of Democrats, they left the field open for the Trump team. If Mueller HAD investigated the Democrats, they could claim "That's been investigated and there's nothing there." In hindsight, that's what they should've done, where they could fine-tune where and how the investigation went. But they overplayed their hand, controlling what got looked at by their guys in the first place, in their rush to get Trump and only Trump. They had it all sewn up, and were PLEASED by the scope memo Rosenstein handed to Mueller. But that's hindsight. At the time, I bet they didn't see how this kept Mueller team's mitts off of a lot of leads that led in the Democrat direction, which Weissman could have buried while pretending to investigate.

  4. It's been a septic tank since they discovered how to buy votes with other people's money.
