@dovidwolfson9447 No failure at all! It was a failed plan by the Democrats. The only true failure was the fact that Trump walked away from this. That they didn't plan for. Trump, walking away from this, was the unthinkable. AT 150 yds, they figured Money in the Bank. But Trump isn't somebody that doesn't back down from this and he knows much more than we do. So if this is a setup, Trump will tell us about it... Stay tuned, to be continued.
