The almost certain approval of Judge Brett M Kavanaugh for the Supreme Court will conclude a week where the president also finalized a new trade agreement with Canada and Mexico, fulfilling one of his major campaign promises. Additionally, the most recent jobs report revealed the lowest unemployment rate since 1969. While these developments do not alter the core aspects of a presidency often marked by chaos and scandal, they provide Trump with a positive narrative as he approaches critical midterm elections. With the special counsel investigation quiet during the campaign season, Trump has the opportunity to shift the conversation to more favorable topics. Former senior adviser to President Obama, David Axelrod, noted that Trump has had a good week following a series of bad ones. He has had some significant victories to boast about, but even in his presidency of aggressive tactics, there are consequences to his wins. The relationship with Canada suffered from harsh negotiations, and the battle over Kavanaugh's nomination worsened division in America. The impact of Kavanaugh's nomination has heightened tensions on both sides, potentially helping Trump in the Senate but putting the House at risk. President Donald Trump discussed the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, with US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer by his side. Trump, who is the first president in American history to have never held public office or served in the military, has displayed his lack of experience on numerous occasions. His unfamiliarity with government operations, legislation, and diplomacy has hindered his ability to achieve goals such as repealing Obama's health care law, implementing stricter immigration regulations, constructing a wall along the Mexican border, and resolving conflicts in the Middle East. Despite being more successful at dismantling agreements rather than creating new ones, Trump has failed to make progress in negotiating replacements for agreements such as the Asian-Pacific trade pact, global climate change accord, and nuclear deal with Iran. His most significant legislative accomplishment was the tax-cutting package passed last year, which was largely shaped by Republican congressional leaders with their own motives. Recently, Trump successfully negotiated a revised trade agreement with South Korea and replaced NAFTA with Canada and Mexico, achievements that initially seemed unattainable. The decreasing unemployment rate of 3.7 percent is partly due to the economic recovery initiated by Obama, a fact that Trump refuses to acknowledge. Despite this, the thriving economy has become one of his most valuable political assets. With Kavanaugh's confirmation nearing, Trump demonstrated his ability to push through a significant nomination despite previous doubts. Overall, it has been a successful week for him. In an interview, Kellyanne Conway, counselor to Trump, expressed excitement over his success, attributing it to his perseverance, tenacity, and commitment to his campaign promises and principles. Republican activists also noted that Trump's willingness to defy conventional wisdom had proven effective, with some calling him a successful gambler despite the risks he has taken. A good gambler's true skill is revealed when the dice settle. While the White House celebrated, his opponents mourned. Critics believe he is appointing a man accused of sexual assault to the Supreme Court, damaging relationships with neighboring countries for a trade deal with exaggerated benefits, and taking credit for the economy while increasing the deficit. Despite this, some acknowledge the need for updated trade agreements, but question Trump's tactics. The success of Trump's actions will be tested in the upcoming weeks, as his approval ratings remain low for a president this close to an election. Patti Solis Doyle, who served as Hillary Clinton's campaign manager in 2008, stated that Independents are particularly fed up with the chaos and uncertainty under President Trump's administration. Despite the positive aspects such as a good economy and conservative judges, she questions the cost of Trump's actions, including tariff wars, separation of families, and a large deficit. Trump is gearing up for an intense campaign in the upcoming weeks. He will travel to Kansas on Saturday and will be on the road for six of the next eight days, mainly holding lively arena rallies to energize his conservative base with passionate speeches. The upcoming midterm elections are focused on voter turnout, with Democrats showing more enthusiasm and determination to take control of the House and possibly the Senate from Trump's party. Conservatives were more engaged during the battle for Kavanaugh, but once he is confirmed, Democrats, especially women upset about the treatment of sexual assault allegations, may be more motivated to vote out of anger. Trump's ability to stay focused on his strongest political points is uncertain, as he tends to veer off into other topics, even when discussing important issues like the new trade agreement, the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). One constant in the Trump presidency is the rapid shifts in the narrative, with new developments in palace intrigue, international tensions, and investigations potentially overshadowing any progress by the upcoming Nov 6 election. According to Axelrod, it is uncertain how these factors will impact the election in a month's time, as time moves quickly in the era of Trump.
