I deleted the thread with the Breibart article because this is the article Breitbart was quoting from NYT. Let's try to post the source and not the Breitbart article:

Quote:
But White House officials say the president is deeply worried that his recent show of bipartisanship on the budget and on the Deferred Action on Childhood Arrivals immigration program with two Democratic leaders — Representative Nancy Pelosi and Senator Chuck Schumer — endangers his standing with the base.
Quote:
“It’s not a coincidence that the same week he did the DACA deal that he just flooded Twitter with a bunch of red meat for the base,” Mr. Conant added. “I think his fundamental problem is he needs to figure out ways to grow his base, and his instinct is instead to double down on what he’s already got. Whenever he tacks to the middle, his numbers tick up. But he just can’t bring himself to move beyond his base.”

Why do we even post Breitbart here? It's like posting Nazi's shit on a Jewish forum.

That's what I posted when you deleted that lol, anyway so that means Trump will double down on us? I didn't really get it.

Breitbart is shit...

It is not real news...

You can post Breitbart on the lounge if you want to start a discussion.


The forum rules state that the news source must be a reliable ...


Breitbart articles are full of fantasy.

Eh...I think Trump will sign the bill if it passes House & Senate. He's all over the place and he changes his mind on the same day.

No the deleted article was just referencing another article (the one he updated). the updated article is the original. plus we'd rather give ad traffic to NY times than to breibart.
