Trump is always looking to blame someone for his screw-ups.
The one he is most worried about now is the 'impending recession' - that has been affectionately been labeled as -
"The Trump Recession"
He knows that it could kill his chances for a second term and he has already started to make excuses.
Excuse 1: blame the Fed
Excuse 2: you have to vote for me if you value your 401K - if the Dems win - it will really go south - I'm the only one that can make it better - you have no choice but to vote for me - love me or hate me.
But how do we get him to maybe have another excuse that can put him at odds with the Repug Party? Here's how.
Have him believe that the Repug Party convinced him that the 'tax cut' that he shepherded through - that they said would be good for the economy - is to blame for the impending recession.
Get him to blame the Repug Party for giving him wrong advice about this tax cut and that it is the Repug Party that should be blamed for the impending recession because they gave him wrong advice.
Have him change the narrative from a "Trump Recession" to a "Repug Recession".
I know you're going to say - 'but Trump is a Repug himself'. You're right - but he doesn't have the ego to take the blame for the impending recession. He needs someone/something to blame this impending recession on and he's looking for excuses and someone to point the finger at and away from him.
What a better fall-guy than the Repug Party. Remember - he only thinks about himself. Bottom line - he has no loyalty to the Repug Party. He's desperate and if he wants to keep himself from going to jail - he has to win a second term. Yes - to save himself - I believe he would even turn on the Party.
All we need to do is put the 'bee in his bonnet' through a well placed tweet that can be seen by Trump - tweeting something like - Trump was given wrong advice by the powers that be in the Repug Party. They knew that this tax cut could foment a recession - but that the goal was to give the wealthy a hefty tax break - and by the time the recession comes - we could blame the whole thing on Trump and use Trump as the fall-guy. We'll use Trump as he's expendable and is our pawn.
The goal here is to put Trump at odds with his own Party.
Trump thinks - 'hey I can use that'. It's not my fault - it's the fault of the Repug Party. That's a good excuse.
Remember - he's only looking for a good excuse to get the blame off his back. He's too stupid to realize that he'll go down with the Party on this - but at least he's got a good excuse to say that the Party is to blame and not me (Trump).
Imagine the fireworks that would result - if we can get Trump and the Repug Party at odds with each other.

(23,061 posts)drumpf wanted that tax cut and tailored it so it wouldn't hurt hm or Toy and give them hundreds of thousands of $$ of relief every year. He will never ever blame the tax cut, and that's 100% sure. It's Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid that are to blame, per the Russian Repug line and he will toe that because it's good for him personally and he hates the working class.

(25,224 posts)blame the impending recession on 'the tax cut'. Maybe even call it 'the Trump Tax Cut'. If all the fingers are pointing to the tax cut - from the Dems; from the financial talking heads; and the cable news/money networks - then it will be hard pressed for the Repugs and Trump to blame SS, Medi (Care/Caid).
The Dems need to set the narrative on this and do it before Trump and the Repugs do.

(25,224 posts)We have to set the narrative on the tax cuts now and get Trump to start blaming the Repugs for setting him up for the fall. He has to believe they used him.
