MAGA Commentator Spars With CNN Panel After Trying To Call Trump A Genius

A CNN panel erupted in discord when MAGA strategist Kristin Davison attempted to portray President Donald Trump as a strategic genius, inciting widespread dissent among the participants. The debate unfolded during “NewsNight with Abby Phillip,” as Davison staunchly defended Trump’s purported brilliance. Her assertions, including a so-called “mutual love fest” between Trump and farmers adversely affected by his policies, only exacerbated the skepticism surrounding her claims. While Davison maintained that soybean farmers continued to support Trump, they have incurred significant financial losses due to his trade war with China, which halted imports of American soybeans. Panelists like Max Boot emphasized the farmers' struggles, asserting they were suffering due to Trump’s policies. Despite Davison's insistence that trade negotiations would bear fruit, other commentators highlighted the contradiction in trusting a leader who instigated the crisis. The episode illustrated the ongoing divide among those affected by Trump's economic decisions, particularly within the agricultural community.
