Dana Perino on Democrats and Iran: “I think they are trying to separate themselves so much from Donald Trump that, I’m not saying they are rooting for America to lose.. but they are not saying America wants to win.”pic.twitter.com/MQ27X0jpda

Sure sounds like a President who wants America to win! Not. Nor is it only words which confirm Trump's preference that the USA decline or as Perino might put it, not to win. On Wednesday, January 24, 2024, Donald
privately pressured Senate Republicans to “kill” a bipartisan deal to secure the U.S. border because he doesn’t want President Joe Biden to chalk up a win ahead of the 2024 presidential election, according to a source familiar with the tenuous negotiations on the package.
Trump directly reached out to several GOP senators on Wednesday to tell them to reject any deal, said this source, who requested anonymity to speak freely. The GOP presidential frontrunner also personally reached out to some Senate Republicans over the weekend, the source told HuffPost.
“Trump wants them to kill it because he doesn’t want Biden
to have a victory,” said the source. “He told them he will fix the border when
he is president… He said he only wants the perfect deal.”
If the perfect deal- nearly impossible- had been achieved, it still woldn't have been perfect in Trump's eyes. As a zero-sum devotee, Donald doesn't want anything good for the other because he assumes that would be bad for him. And of course, Donald Trump is the only cause Donald Trump is interested in. Hence, he supports only what is bad for whomever or whatever he considers his adversary, irrespective of whether it is good, or a win, for this country.
Dana Perino can only speculate about motives of Democrats. We know what Donald Trump's motive always is, and it's he, not us.
