Today's tweets are very much like loosing a lot at the casino, and then going home for a good night's sleep, and then getting up the next day and thinking, "If I go back to the casino this morning, I can make up for what I lost last night, and then double my money" . "I will have double the money I started with"
And that is not what happens. So, Trump started in again today. He is solidifying his hatred of some of the major principles of this country, and making it harder for republicans to respond. Some republicans will respond, when the casino is empty in a few weeks. Trump really doesn't have a clue. This second day reflects his stupidity and attitude that he can say anything and get away with it. "I will double down and win." Trump thinks.
He is wrong. In a while, republicans will respond. Someone will challenge him in the primaries, and some republicans will challenge his leadership. When? Let's give them some time to recover and get themselves together. These Trump thoughts will be challenged by republicans and Trump will lose big. Trump has set up his own destruction and he doesn't even know it.
Instead of doubling down today, Trump could have apologized for what he said. Obviously, that is not what he did. Trump attacked again. He could have waited a while, but that is not Donald Trump. Trump has made a major mistake in my opinion. And, I believe that major republican money will flow to Trump's republican opponents. Trump has started a war within his own party, and there is plenty of time for that war to destroy both Trump and the republican party.
