The pettiness, cussedness, and spitefulness of Trump:

 

(And stupidity! See video below)


WASHINGTON (AP) - President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he he won't call Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz after the targeted shootings of two state lawmakers because it would "waste time." 

One of the lawmakers and her husband were killed. The Republican president spoke to reporters early Tuesday aboard Air Force One as he flew back to Washington after abruptly leaving an international summit in Canada because of rising tensions in the Middle East between Israel and Iran. 

Asked if he planned to call Walz, Trump said the Democratic governor is "slick" and "whacked out" and said, "I'm not calling him." 

Presidents often reach out to other elected officials at times of tragedy to offer condolences.




 

I've always said that Trump hasn't a drop of human decency within him, and he proves me right every day.


Trump is a shameful stain on our country.





Trump: "We all know the Prime Minister of the UK and we just signed a document...So we have our trade agreement with the European Union." 

The UK is not a member of the European Union.

Trump is alone, humiliated, surrounded by loser supporters, and extremely angry. This is when he'll be at his most dangerous and will do as much as possible to hurt America and the world.

The FOTUS, and it's been said by many, is a clueless narcissist lacking emotional and social intelligence whose only real concern is enriching himself and significantly moving the nation ever closer to his desire of creating The Fascist States of America. One in which Oligarchs and Plutocrats hold all the wealth, make all the decisions, and the rest get whatever tiny scraps they decide to grant us.

The FOTUS can't be humiliated. His delusional mind hasn't the capacity to be humiliated. It's convinced him he is Perfect. Infallible. Only I can fix it he has declared. There has never been anybody greater. In his own mind he thinks he's a genius and likely believes he has been granted divine powers by god.

When in reality the FOTUS is uninformed, disinterested, inept, incompetent, and in truth, is a fish out of water. And the nation suffers.

Is he evil, as Skud has said? I'm not sure. What I am sure of is this...

I've never seen Trump show an ounce of kindness towards anyone publicly, outwardly mourn the loss of anyone, offer condolences to the bereaved, or otherwise serve as the consoler in chief of the United States.

Does that mean he doesn't do it privately? Not at all, and that's not what I said.

Sometimes in tragedy, a nation needs it's leader to call us together and assure us it will alright. Trump does not seem to possess this ability.

Of course he is too busy to call. Golf takes a lot of time.

BTW... if Trump is the topic, then all things Trump are on topic. So, let's add this...

In order to lessen the impact of ICE raids on farms supplying food to millions of Americans and hotels and restaurants that serve millions of Americans, President Trump announced a few days ago a "pause in raids and arrests in the agricultural industry, hotels and restaurants, according to an internal email and three U.S. officials with knowledge of the guidance."

Everyone thought that was great news.

Until last night when Trump reversed himself, ending that pause, telling ICE, according to the WAPO, to continue conducting enforcement operations at agricultural businesses despite concerns about negative effects on the food industry.

Honestly, can anyone explain Trump's policies other than he desires for America to live in a constant of soul crushing chaos?

Les Carpenter said...

No.

Chaos makes it easier for him to, well, create more chaos. And 80 million apparently love him for it. They voted for the imbecile so they must prefer his chaos...

If not they ought to begin paying attention. The SOB telegraphed everything he is doing long ago.

Why would anything he does surprise you. His first term was decision on fly and that hasn't changed. He makes decisions based on the minute and relies others to clean it up or just reverse his own decision for the moment.
His whole deportation action has been a nightmare because it goes from criminals to everyone and back and forth. If we keep deporting illegals who will mow our lawns, install our roofs and pick our crops. Immigration reform with a path to citizenship is long overdue and we need a leader who will push for it. We know 3 1/2 years may seem like a long time but so was the previous four years of the US decline.
We will survive this and maybe some good will come out of it.
