He has not gotten one worthwhile program put through, and instead concentrates on non productive matters.

This is really a national embarrassment, and we have wasted 6 months that could have been used to actually make things better.
He is getting in a lot of golf practice tho.

We will probably be told to not take his tweets literally or stop taking them so seriously or look at his heart or some such nonsense.

Come to think of it where is Sean Spicer? Has he been around lately?
I think Spicer will be behind the bushes again.

God help us.

He however could not control himself and recklessly interfered in the process.

In response to all of the above quotes. While Russia ( Putin's Regime Oligarchy) are no doubt laughing hysterically at their great luck in getting Trump elected.. I think they only wanted to damage HRC so that she would have more difficulty leading the Nation... Instead, totally enjoying the de-construction of America (LA Bannon Doctrine).

As for the Allies of American, we aren't laughing because it's distressing to realize the once power Ally (USA) has become toothless and is incrementally dismantling "Western Values" as well as sense of comfort believing the USA would stand shoulder to shoulder with them. Loss of Trust by just about all Allies will take a long time to gain back.

Instead, ( at last up here in Canada) when anyone mentions Trump name, or one of the many stupid comments or make up alternate facts... Everybody does the collective EYE ROLL and Shakes their Heads!! It's hard to grasp how far USA reputation has degraded since he took over it's Leadership!

If he would just shut up, his position would be 10X more tenable.
Well then, he also doesn't read much if it is not about himself. He'd rather couch-watch TV and tweet, just as a teenager. Even if these readings are not even BOOKS, just-merely-not important-who cares- memos involving the USA. Blehhhh, tooo long, tooo many words... I know lots of them already, what's the point? sigh......


"Officials put Trump's name in 'as many memo paragraphs as we can because he keeps reading if he's mentioned'"
Source : Officials put Trump's name in 'as many memo paragraphs as we can because he keeps reading if he's mentioned' | The Independent

What a pity!


Here are others :

National security officials strategically put Trump's name in briefings so he'll keep reading - Business Insider

https://www.buzzfeed.com/davidmack/d...PXB#.fnrKmy7zA

NSC officials include Trump

Don't attack the sources, I may have chosen some (certainly not all) bad ones in the eyes of pro-trumpers. Show me your counter-sources.

And if your only one is "fake news" !!! It's a perfect example of a 2017 oxymoron. And also, what do you consider "news"?

The same end result... silence would be better for him and his administration.

Donald J. Trump‏Verified account @realDonaldTrump

Why is that Hillary Clintons family and Dems dealings with Russia are not looked at, but my non-dealings are?

@RobertMaguire_ Replying to @realDonaldTrump

1 you're POTUS
2 as candidate you invited hacking
3 they hacked
4 multiple staff had meetings w Russian officials, then didn't report them
5 your advisors had financial ties to Russia
6 when they and their connections were being investigated, you fired the Investigator

I mean, this isn't a great synopsis, but you should really understand the broad strokes at this point"

He may... Look at who the lady is taking over the investigation already!!! A Federalist.
When Rosenstein recuses himself, she is coming in to show Mueller Comey collusion.

Just listening to the Donald in Miami ahead of his golf weekend. He is literally losing his mind. Smiling like a clown. Making off hand comments. Asking "mike" about "what a good job we are doing". Crowd is all but lost trying to figure out what he is saying.


Sad
