Plus he is surrounded by yes folks. In his first term he had people who said “No, Mr. President you can’t do that.”

No one told him a Great Gatsby Ball during a government shutdown wasn’t a great look and would be used by the Dems in 2026 and 2028.

No one told him that not funding (or fully funding) SNAP benefits affects his voters more than Dems. Some 42% of head of households receiving food assistance are white.

No one tells him the stock market does not reflect the world the majority of Americans live.

Because if someone had told him the ketchup would fly!😂

There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.

Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.

Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody’s job.

Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it.

It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.
