President Donald Trump exudes a triumphant attitude regardless of what he does, because all the things he does, according to him, are not only great successes but also the best possible outcomes ever.
However, there are more failures in those supposedly great accomplishments, and they don’t support the rosy pictures he paints.
A recent example of this major disconnect between what he claims and what actually happens is his effort to make the Reflecting Pool at the Lincoln Memorial more beautiful. This didn’t happen — quite the contrary.
Additionally, let’s not forget his ongoing debacle with Iran, his misguided tariffs which are costing us too much, and the removal of his name from the Kennedy Center’s building and all other references.
Mr. Trump’s triumphs have negative outcomes here, and they aren’t good for our democracy.
