https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/schumer-trump-petty-unserious-response-letterIf you hit the link above, you will see a letter that Trump wrote to Schumer on April 2, yesterday. How does it define Trump?
...Here is the leader of a major country in the world, that has a life threatening problem that is killing hundreds if not thousands of people, taking the time to write a letter to an opposing leader of a political party, instead of taking the time to deal with the problem that is killing people.
..Imagine how much time the letter at the link took to compose and write and rewrite. I am sure Trump wanted the letter to be correct and strong, so someone wrote it and rewrote it and finally got Trump's approval.Perhaps, Trump did not write it, maybe he did. It doesn't matter. That letter defines how Trump is spending his time. Rebutting and opponent instead of solving a life killing problem..
...It also defines his priorities. The letter to Schumer was a very important thing to do, as opposed to other important things to do...Think about that for awhile..

(38,414 posts)..I am guessing, (I don't know) that he has been told to change his manner and tone. But he refuses. He has been told to change for the good of, "The United States of America" because Trump is a leader..............
..........But he still refuses....................
....Why? "he knows it all, and doesn't have to change" .Besides change would mean he might have been wrong, and Trump is never wrong and never apologizes

(37,449 posts)in fact pretty much you can count on his to show up at serious incidents-event-disasters-public health. In fact its been said among politicians of all stripes...."give it a few and Chuck will be here". He has staff that once gets a task stays on it until resolved. A big topic here has been the pollution of drinking water supply by PFOS,PFOA & PFAS that was used to wash planes at a NG facility and end up in the ground water and streams that feed a reservoir.
A combined effort by local congressman-both Senators - NY Assembly & Senate has now forced DOD to acccept responsibility for the
cleanup.
