Hot Takes:
- It’s almost like Trump is running for re-election against The Squad.
- Democrats need to rally and have a serious strategy session, as Trump seems to be gaining momentum with his latest rants.
- It seems as if Trump has also adopted the new slogan “make America hate again.”
- Trump and his staffers are brilliant strategists. Don’t be surprised if he’s re-elected in 2020.
