Trump Was Right Again: Too Much Winning

There is a saying among MAGA conservatives that “Trump was right about everything.” You can even buy a hat to that effect, so you know it’s true.

But sometimes the truth is a double-edged sword. Case in point: When Trump predicted in 2016 that his supporters would be so worn out by “too much winning” that they would beg him to stop.

We’re gonna turn it around, and we’re gonna start winning again. … We’re gonna win so much, you may even get tired of winning and you’ll say, “Please, please, it’s too much winning, we can’t take it anymore. Mr. President, it’s too much,” and I’ll say, no it isn’t. We have to keep winning. We have to win more!

Well, Trump failed to deliver enough winning in his first term to have his prediction come true – at least partly because the Democrats tangled him up in a fake Russia collusion investigation for the better part of two years – but Trump wasn’t done in 2021, not by a long shot.

Fast forward to the non-contiguous second term that began in … oh wait, it just began this year! Just nine months ago to be exact. Even though it seems like a lifetime. Working at warp speed, Trump has crammed more into those nine months than Joe Biden did in his entire four years (and Barack Obama did in eight.)
