Trump’s Plans Could Go Belly Up. Why?
There’s good reason to think Trump’s grandiose political plans will fall short, in part because both the United States and the GOP are far different than they were in President McKinley’s time.
But Democrats also can’t simply wait for Trump to stumble; they’ll have to offer a compelling alternative that addresses the publication’s real hunger for change.
Trump’s hopes for an enduring majority are likely to fail as well.
The nation he now rules has to cope with competition from China and the growing threat of climate change.
It is not the vaulting success it was when McKinley and his GOP successors governed it.
The promise of steady jobs at decent wages lured an unprecedented surge of immigrants from all over the world.
Most settled in industrial cities and towns where Republicans reigned. And with an army about the size of Serbia’s, there was no military establishment to hog the federal budget.
Though he presides over a booming economy (at least before his tariffs kick in), this is hardly the kind of America that Trump wants to make great again.
