Each politician operates with a certain degree of lowering.
It is practically in the post description.
While they are trying to sail in howling political winds, they must regularly justify the change of position. Maybe the mood of the country has changed. It may be a question of loyalty of the party. Maybe they bowed to pressure Great donors.
And maybe they are hypocrites because something they opposed during Biden administration is now perfectly well in the Trump administration.
We still do not get “right history” on the alleged decline of Biden: Kurtz
Whatever the circumstances, it is shamelessly to offer an explanation that everyone knows is garbage.
And they have to do it with an impassive face. They cannot say very well: “Donald Trump will make sure that I am essential if I am not going on it.” They therefore offer the false transparent explanation.
It is, in your opinion, the nature of politics. You must have a certain flexibility, a room for maneuver.
In one of my two interviews with the president Donald Trump Last year, he tried to explain why he had completely returned Tiktok. After all, he had spent his first mandate trying to prohibit the company belonging to Chinese for national security reasons, to be blocked by the courts. Now, suddenly, he had made an 180 and tried to save the application, despite a ban on the congress.

Trump told me that he had changed his mind because Tiktok’s ban would help Facebook, which he considered a greater threat.
I didn’t buy it. He had concluded that Tiktok was incredibly popular, especially with young people, and wanted to position himself as his Savior. Of course it was before Mark Zuckerberg started to make fun of Trump, as a donation of a million dollars to his inaugural.
Trump can have the biggest outer gene of everyone, and that is part of the reason he succeeds.
Trump shook by the “bad” issue of the journalist’s taco
He is not suspended from what he said the day before or an hour before. He can go from the expression of sympathy for the diagnosis of the prostate cancer of Joe Biden to say that he does not feel at all for Biden for Biden. He can go from the blame of the dead end of Ukraine on the Volodomyr Zelenskyy to finally Condemn Vladimir Putin To call him the Biden war.
Ross Douthat has an intelligent approach in his New York Times column.
“The desire to make a trip and contradict each other and contradict himself is a large part of what keeps the viable president, and the promise to emerge is part of Trump’s implicit terrain to swing voters – by reassuring them that everything that is extreme is also temporary, that he always tests limits (on politics, on power) but also in general to withdraw.”
So Maga voters trust Trump to go far enough – but not too far?

This brings them to the territory of John Kerry. “I actually voted for the $ 87 billion before voting against this”, referring to the military aid to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. Republican advertisements immediately described the 2004 presidential candidate as a flip-fopper. Kerry later allowed that he was “inarticulated”.
It is useful to think about turning the script. In the fury of the media on the series of paradons of Trump, the president gave one to the chief of a violent gang of Chicago, Larry Hoover, A drug trafficker Which has served six consecutive perpetuity penalties for killing a man.
Largely symbolic? Of course, because Hoover will remain in prison for state accusations. Never mind.
If Biden had done so, the conservative voters would have become unlocked. How will he dare the side of a murderer? Does Biden have no respect for human life? The man who was killed has no second chance.
The story led by Maga would have been on television every 10 minutes. With Trump, it was a Blip, barely a story.
Naturally, Biden’s hands are not exactly clean on the forgiveness forehead. He has repeatedly promised not to forgive Hunter, then did exactly that after the elections. It was a blatant lie and a great story.

The other day, Trump got angry when a CNBC journalist asked him about his nickname Taco, Trump always chickens, based on chatter in Wall Street. He called the “wicked” question, that of the king of derogatory nicknames (see Joe, somnolent).
The metaphor of poultry aside, the president frequently delays draconian pricesPerform quick negotiations and declare victory. His supporters like that because the markets generally drew, although the turmoil clearly shakes the world economy.
While Trump bounces a little in the polls, says Dousthat, “with a different president … You could say that this recovery occurred despite the various rear-dos and the reversions of the White House (as well as various reprimands of the judiciary). of these reverse and recalibrations. Seeing Trump both verify and be checked by others is what a large group of voters expects from his presidency. They like Trump to put pressure on the institutions they are wary or hate, from official Washington to elite universities, but their approval depends on a dynamic interaction, where he accepts the counterprint and pensions. “”

One of the reasons why Trump gets away with it is that Democrats have no national spokespersons. Tim Walz, the FLOP VP, playing with a presidency race? People like Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer do not cross. AOC gets good shots on social networks, but it is not even a member of leadership.
You must also credit Trump’s political skills. He has no fear of being shamelessly.
