Donald Trump Knows Nothing About Anything

He is a vacuous dotard.

I just cannot believe the nominations being proffered for serious positions within the massive machine that is the United States of America. People, some who you know, will die from his decisions. Many will become destitute. I hope for the best for my family.

1984 and Idiocracy were supposed to be prescient warnings, not the damn User's Guide.

He is a hazard to all living and non-living things.

They revel in their complete ignorance of just about everything. The founders warned us about exactly this. A pity we're in the generation that failed America. The Worst Generation.

My rant falls upon the ears of only those who are already in league with me.
My post exceeds the reading comprehension of a majority of my fellow citizens.
Heck of a job with No Child Left Behind you previous Republican Dotard.

and he told me the incentives aren't going away.
"Trump wants to put more money in the hands of people, not take it away," he said.

I don't know about the future of incentives but his statement about money in the hands of people was so stunningly naive.
What is heartbreaking is that Trump voters just didn't know what they were voting for. What they really want is what Kamala offers. They just can't put two and two together.

misinformed about Trump's agenda. He really thinks the incentives aren't going away. it's in his interests to say they are, to get me to buy right away.

Of the 50% who voted for Trump I'm pretty mad at all of them. But some are guilty of being lazy (maybe not too sharp) and not getting informed. The ones I want to run over with a bulldozer are the ones who actually think fascism is a good idea.

Kamala and Tim and the rest of us won't get what we deserve.

And it needs a sequel. Then again, maybe what"s happening now here in the United Police States of Amnesia is the sequel.

He has economic advisers, but thinks foreign governments will pay the tariffs we impose on imported goods.

He’s an ignorant man who thinks he’s smarter than everyone else.

And he’s in charge.

since the rally prior to the election. He hasn't even been to the WH. I'm laying bets DT "resigns" Vance and makes Elon VP. It's not constitutional, but when did that ever stop DT?

WOW!!!!!! Grolph! What a FANTASTIC quote! And Welcome to DU!

I absolutely love it, and I'm keeping it for early next year when my Indivisible group resumes issuing our weekly "Call to Action" emails. We're taking the holiday season off to rest up and refocus for the new challenges. And as one of the writer-editors, I can attest: BOY do we all need the break!

At this early point, I'm not sure what will happen in the new year, especially since people started giving up and bailing out and there were just the core few of us left to get anything accomplished. Hopefully the coming trump sins will fire up our pals to come back and fight again - with GUSTO!!! I'm hoping that by the time New Year's is here, there will be so much obvious damage and danger that people will get fired up and want to fight again. But in the meantime, this is a REALLY welcome break, and as I already said, we've sure needed it! Hopefully all our batteries will be thoroughly recharged by January.


Good GRIEF, that's a good quote!

While I'm sure his MAGA morons find it appealing that he is replacing civil servants with dipshits there are serious consequences that come with hiring people who are in no fucking way qualified. His cabinet is a nightmare consisting of billionaires who stand to personally benefit from their position, a puppy killer as head of homeland security, a child sex trafficker as attorney general, and a man whose brain was eaten by a worm as head of the department of health and human services.
