.MaddowBlog: Pres. Trump’s latest retreats do further damage to his credibility.
The folks at NBC News’ First Read flagged an interesting trifecta that’s unfolded over the last 17 days.1. Reaching a deal with Mexico to avert tariffs – a deal that largely consisted of actions that Mexico had already agreed to.3. Delaying his plan for nationwide raids to deport undocumented immigrants.
It’s also worth noting that in each of these instances, the Republican moved in a direction that I approve of. As an observer who didn’t want to see Trump punish Mexico for no reason, touch off another deadly war in the Middle East, or deport thousands of families, these reversals were welcome developments.
Trump was going to close the southern border, until he didn’t. He was going to withdraw all U.S. troops from Syria, until he didn’t. He was going to subject North Korea to “fire and fury,” until he didn’t. There have been plenty of bills the president was prepared to veto, lawsuits he was prepared to file, and information he was prepared to divulge, only to have Trump retreat, over and over again.
