John W. Dean III: "Trump is becoming what he hates most, which is being a loser."

.....................

In a separate tweet, Trump asked, “Do you get the impression that the Supreme Court doesn’t like me?”

The answer, according to former Nixon White House counsel John W. Dean III, is no.

“Justices watch what’s going on in the world. They know we have an unstable leader. They see he’s not a force for stability in democracy,” said Dean, who famously testified against President Richard Nixon in Congress’s Watergate inquiry.

Assessing the fallout from the court’s DACA ruling and Bolton’s memoir, Dean argued, “This is a blow against Trump that has existential implications for his presidency, but it’s of the time. . . . Trump is becoming what he hates most, which is being a loser.”

2. He's always been a loser. He just can't hide it anymore.

3. This is why I believe that a he will drop out of the race....

maybe use health as an excuse. He'll give his, "You don't deserve my genius" speech and leave.

The one label he will NEVER wear is looser.

4. Becoming?

He has always been a loser, as anyone who has paid even the least bit of attention to him, has known for at least the past 3 decades.

Trump. Is. The. Biggest. Fucking. Loser. On. The. Planet. Always has been.

5. How is he "becoming" a loser

after countless bankruptcies, failed businesses, failed marriages, criminal charities, impeachment proceedings, world leaders laughing about him on camera, serving as a doormat to Putin.....

The only reason why he was able to get elected is because of Russia’s help. There isn’t one thing in Trump’s life that he accomplished by himself.

6. "Justices watch what's going on in the world. They know we have an unstable leader. They see

he’s not a force for stability in democracy." - John Dean. I've never really bought into that myth of judicial impartiality either, the one that holds judges are impartial arbiters of disputes and decisions are made only according to the law, free from political pressure. It appears CJ Roberts understands SCOTUS is the only branch of government left that can rein in Trump.
