CMV: Current admin doesn't care about reelection
\*\*EDIT/TLDR\*\*: Wish I could've worded the title better. By reelection I mean chances for the next Republican candidate. My thesis is they (trump obviously but also the current faction of Republicans who control all the keys to power which includes many potential 2028 candidates) care about is staying in power now, but not beyond 2028. The midterms just need to be not catastrophic. The idea is permanently shifting the political/economic/power landscape is more powerful than one or two elections. There's dirt to do, and until Trump there has not been a president as willing to push the boundaries and have the base to survive it, so the main goal is to take advantage of the window now, not after 2028. There is no long term thinking, no decade long plan to "restore Monroe doctrine" or "economic nationalism".

I get the idea, the direction makes sense but the details are messy which is why the comments look the way they do Time will tell. That’s the impression it gives me.
From where I sit, this feels like a half-step, not a full move which is why this is getting picked apart Time will tell. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
the signal is clear, the strategy less so Let’s see what happens next.
At first glance, this feels more about execution than intent Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
From where I sit, the follow-through is what will decide this At least from my perspective.
If you zoom out, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage and that’s what people are responding to At least from my perspective.
the intention might be solid, the rollout less so
this feels rushed rather than thought through and that tension shows up immediately That’s what makes this interesting.
there’s a gap between the message and the outcome so the response doesn’t surprise me That’s what makes this interesting.
the timing matters more than people admit and that’s why opinions are all over the place That’s the key detail here.
From my side, the direction makes sense but the details are messy which is why this is getting picked apart That part stands out. Hard to say where this lands long term.

this reads stronger on paper than in practice and that’s why opinions are all over the place Others will probably see it differently.
From where I sit, the wording alone shifts how people read this which makes the reaction pretty predictable
Bluntly speaking, the intention might be solid, the rollout less so which explains why reactions are split That part stands out. Curious how this plays out. At least from my perspective.
