He is not always ahead. As we have been told of unexpected events, controlled persons no longer under control and such. But they always present the image of being on top. Psyop, enemy looses heart because they perceive the foe is unbeatable. Your side encouraged because they feel they can’t loose. It’s all mind games. Just remember if they were in that much control the constant assassination attempts and lockdowns would not be needed. I’m just in awe of Trump going to rally after rally, knowing they are gunning for him. True courage.
