Take solace in the fact that your country will never elect someone this clearly unfit for office. Every behavior that is currently on display was present during the entire campaign. The guy who ghostwrote "The Art Of The Deal" actually broke his nondisclosure agreement to tell the world that this guy is thoroughly unfit and has the attention span of a gnat (to that point, for an upcoming conference NATO members are advising people not to speak for longer than 2 minutes so as not to lose the Child-In-Chief). The fact that it looks like he's on his way out is a step in the right direction. The fact that this ignoramus fuck got past the primary much less became President says a lot about millions of Americans.
I couldn't agree more. He was a joke even before the campaign. He was a failure in the business world, something the majority of people were unaware of because he's one of the top con men in the history of the planet. What saved his 'empire' was the tv reality show "The Apprentice". It was a ratings success and put the Trump name back on the map. And because of the popular tv show, the name 'Donald Trump' became very well known throughout the country. When he wanted to have his contract renegotiated, he decided to throw his hat in the political ring since he figured it would bring him more $$$ figures during his contract negotiations. This life-long democrat then surprised himself and everyone by winning the GOP nomination. This was quite a feat, but not entirely surprising considering the Republican base had turned to populist candidates instead of the usual moderates like George Bush, John Kasisch and Marco Rubio. I'd been saying for the past 4-5 years that the likes of Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan and George HW Bush wouldn't stand a chance to get nominated in today's GOP. People laughed, but i was proven correct.
Donald Trump is a man-child. He's an ignoramus and there's no doubt he must have surrounded himself with qualified people throughout his life in order to help him run his companies. I now realize why it was possible for him to bankrupt his casinos. I never thought it could be possible, but now i realize that with gross incompetence it can happen. He's also known as a mega con man in the business world and he's left a long trail of victims over the years in regards to his dealings. It's rumoured that he's been involved in over 3000 various lawsuits thoughout his life and this is quite telling in the type of person he is.
He's truly unfit to run a government. Not simply because he's never served in any government job in the past, but mostly because of his temperament and tremendous lack of knowledge about all kinds of stuff. Although i had done my homework on Trump and expected him to be a huge failure if he ever became President, i honestly didn't think it would be as bad as it's been. It's shameful and although it's the Americans who elected him to office, i never forget the fact that the other candidate got 3 million more votes than he did. Therefore, the American people deserve much better. The majority didn't vote for him and his destructive policies, but he still won the election due to an ancient and outdated political system which is still used to determine the winner of a presidential election.
But i expected he'd be surrounded with qualified people who would show him the way. However, i didn't realize how much of a needy and insecure person he was in the fact he'd been surrounded by sycophants throughout his life and anyone who would disagree with him would end up getting fired. He is also heavily addicted to chaos and often surrounded himself with people who often were at odds with one another and often quarreled. I learned very early into his presidency that nothing has changed in that regard. He's surrounded himself with unqualified and inexperienced advisers who have only added fuel to the chaos. And the problem was extended to his cabinet selections when he appointed people grossly unqualified for cabinet positions he appointed them for. Ben Carson? Betsy DeVos? Rick Perry? Jefferson "Beauregard" Sessions?? I mean....WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!
And then, he appoints his son-in-law Jared Kushner as one of his top advisors and later gives a White House job to his fucking fake daughter??? What the fuck is going on??? Sadaam Hussein and Mohamar Ghadaffi did those kinds of things!!! The American President is not supposed to act like a third-world dictator, right??? What a fucking nightmare!!! Even Ann Coulter of all people is pissed off about this!!! It must be a cold day in hell!!!
This guy won't go down easily. Sure, he may end up resigning but it'll have to be on his terms where in his mind he will come out as the winner. He will not resign if it means he'll be known as a failure, although it'll be obvious to everyone (other than his fluffers) that he is.
Most of the White House staff have or will be advised to start lawyering up in the near future if they want to reduce the risk(s) of ending up in jail once the various criminal investigations are over. We saw this back in the mid-70's when Nixon's aides were the ones who wound up spending time in jail while Nixon never spent a day there. It's unfair, but that's how it is.
My guess is that Michael Flynn will certainly end up doing time, but there will be others. What to hear a good one?? Donald Trump is seriously considering re-hiring Michael Flynn if he winds up getting cleared from prosecution. I don't know what Flynn has on Trump, but it must be something big. It's not just about Trump being loyal to him, it has to be more and i'm sure Russia has something to do with it.
What a colossal mess!!!!
