19. I don't understand why people are at all surprised by the tweets

Nov 2016

This is a guy whose sense of reasoning has been consumed by his ego. He ran for president and plans to take office without the required skills, knowledge, or interest to do the job.

The real scandal about his candidacy should have been his lack of preparedness and unwillingness to learn. Not to mention his lack of experience.

One thing I hope to see finally put to rest is the idea that a business mogul would make a good president.
