President Donald Trump is not an idiot. There, I said it.
If he was mentally deficient, at least, I could give him a pass for being impaired.
No, what we have here as president is a mentally and physically lazy bully who was given the best education his daddy could buy, and whom refused to apply himself to learn anything.
He’ll not read nor listen to his advisors, and he goes off half-cocked, safe in his self-delusion — that is common for a serial narcissist — that he is indeed a stable genius, and nothing that goes wrong is his fault.
The more definitive label for Trump is willfully ignorant, and he certainly is that.
All that aside, he is compulsively disingenuous on a level never before seen in a president, and it has been proven that he is a terrible dealmaker, and as a businessman, he was more often than not in bankruptcy court.
Of course, I could go on and on about his petulant cruelty, his immorality and his crude misogyny, but I will exceed my word limit.
Bottom line, I do not understand why any patriot would follow or defend this would-be tyrannical monarch.
Make America ours again.
