The President Continues to Be Terrible ... at Everything
In the, "The Best Predictor of Future Behavior is PAST Behavior" category ... I give you:
The President Continues to Be Terrible at Everything: 5 Frightening Examples of Trump's Incompetence in Just the Last 72 Hours
It is not hard to imagine how much worse things will be when Trump meets with all those foreign leaders.
You didn’t have to be a political genius—or a genius of any kind, really—to see that Donald Trump was going to be a disaster at being president. He clearly has no interest in politics or policy and doesn't understand, or care to understand, the basics of the job. The Trump platform consists of unbelievable and unconstitutional lies all bound up with racist pipe dreams about how to Make America 1952 Again. To call Trump a con man is to insult hardworking, skilled con men and women the world over. Trump just recognized easy marks when he saw them, and told them what they wanted to hear. And what they wanted to hear was that someone else’s suffering would help them get ahead.
That’s how we got here. Sixty-three million ignorant, desperate and delusional Americans voted for a man uniquely unqualified to be president. Predictably, Trump has mucked up the task at every turn. On the rare occasions he shows up to work instead of golfing, Trump screws up with a frequency that can’t be measured by any currently available metric ...
... Here are five examples of news tidbits from the last 72 hours proving Trump is a danger to us all ...
1. Intelligence officials have to warn other countries not to tell him secrets.
2. NATO officials have to dumb down everything for him.
3. His staff is afraid he’ll blab stuff unless someone keeps an eye on him.
4. He is easily fooled.
5. Officials say he’s too incompetent and uninterested to give away any important details.
