Charles Hurt: Trump’s Stance on Title 9 with Maine Governor Shows ‘Strong Hand’

RUSH EXCERPT:

HURT: "Trump is back. You know, this is — it’s kind of hard to remind ourselves that this is not the way politics has always been sort of done in the past. This guy is a singular character. And the idea that he would call together this White House ceremony and then call out the governor of Maine for some reprobation over her refusal to go along with his executive order is a pretty extraordinary thing and I think that it sort of underscores what a strong hand he actually has because not only is he doing something that I think is very popular and polling shows that it is, the idea of restoring title 9 so that it actually means something when it comes to federal funding is a very important thing. But, also, just the raw politics of it and the ability to kind of create a clip that ricocheted all over the internet, everybody is going to see this, and most people are going to be on his side on this."
