The Constant Train Wreck Of The Trump Presidency Shows He is Truly Unfit For The Offc

PoliTalker

Diversity Makes Greatness
We need a president to be a leader.

This guy can't even defend himself.

Instead of leading, he is forced to spend most of his time defending himself from one charge after another. And it is truly just one thing after another. There has never been a more controversial president, one more mired in controversy. The controversies are not all from what he has done or said while in office, but often linked to his highly questionable past.

And this is definitely not, as his most ardent supporters claim, the media attacking him for no reason. The media is naturally critical of every president. That is their job. If he didn't do anything wrong, the media would have nothing to criticize. The fact that the media is constantly on his case is a reflection upon HIM, not the media.

This is his life, the only life he knows, and now we have all been forced to be dragged along. He is a constant train wreck. The nation is weary of it.

No president has been to court, or been involved in more court cases as an individual or as a part of his business than this guy.

He is constantly running afoul of the law. This is nothing new. His entire life has been one court case after another. The divorces, the bankruptcies, and times he has sued people, and the repeated times he has been charged with dirty dealing; have all constituted a regular train wreck for his entire life.

He can't even put one scandal to rest before another is upon him. He actually plays them like cards. If one is too annoying, he will gladly accept another lessor controversy in the news cycle to displace the more damaging one. He uses this technique as a tool.

If it is not something he has done, or charged with, it is something he has said.

He often blurts outrageous and unsubstantiated things about other people as a diversion to displace a bad story in the news cycle.

Thus, we are all dragged along, from one train wreck to another.

If you want my take on it, you'll have to post to this original PoliTalker thread. I refuse to be an enabler for online bullies, so I won't post to a stolen thread. I won't even read it. If you don't see me, PoliTalker, posting in this thread check the author. This might be a hijacked thread, not the original.

He obviously lives for the headlines, wants the news to be constantly about him, and is obsessed with dominating the news cycle. This shows how insecure he is. While the nation sorely needs a good leader of the people, all Trump seems to want to do is be a leader in the news cycle for constantly being involved in the most salacious story.

He uses the news cycle as his tool for the purpose of 'selling his brand,' where his brand is his name. He is a news whore who sells himself for money.

He is truly alone. He has no friends. Everyone who works with him is doing it for personal gain or out of party loyalty, or they are related to him.

And everybody who is not related to him knows they have to be very careful around him, avoid upsetting him, or they can and will be fired. Thus, he has the highest turnover rate of any administration. It's not that he can't get good people. It is that good people cannot work for him without compromising their ideals.

He has no properly functioning staff, just yes men walking on egg shells.

He doesn't understand how government works.

He is exactly as his critics said during the 2016 campaign.

Donald Trump is truly unfit for the office of president.

and a lot of Republicans still back him, then they try to blame the Dems because nothing is getting done
I guess they have very short memories and forgot what they said they would do to Obama
didn't they say they were not going to work with Obama and were going to make him a one term President.
Well as the old saying goes what goes around comes around and now they don't like it
It seems to me that they think we should do as they say and not what they do
it is OK with them to do something but don't anybody else do the same thing
have a nice day
 
The economy is puttering along; no big terrorist attacks on US soil; people are paying less taxes and keeping more money; unemployment at historic lows. Not sure what you feel isn't being done, but this just illustrates that the POTUS can be white girl wasted and it really doesn't matter.
 
Hello Kacper,

The economy is puttering along; no big terrorist attacks on US soil; people are paying less taxes and keeping more money; unemployment at historic lows. Not sure what you feel isn't being done, but this just illustrates that the POTUS can be white girl wasted and it really doesn't matter.

"people are paying less taxes and keeping more money"

What good is that if it is on borrowed money? How long can we run a large deficit and see the federal debt / GDP ratio continue to rise? How much debt is too much?

What happened to all the Republican deficit hawks?

One would have gotten the impression the Federal Debt was absolutely THE most important thing in the world to them during the Obama administration.

Hey. That reminds me. I need to buy tickets to that great new rock show, that is if I can find it: 'The amazing vanishing mighty Republican Deficit Hawks.'

Can that be found on the Capital Steps?
 
Well done.. You got Trump in spades.

All his life trump courted and played to the media. His one strong point was the ability to promote his name as a symbol of quality.

It's only when he ran for prez and his unsavory past was probed that trump declared the media "an enemy of the people."

Exactly. Let us not forget, as well, that the media basically put him where he is -- from the alleged "real estate mogul" to the game show host to the WH. His campaign got FAR more air time every evening than did any of the other candidates. Even our own local NBC affiliate barely mentioned when Bernie came to town and had a rally (that we attended), yet they would show footage nearly every night of Toadstool rallies in other cities. The media is going to focus on where the drama is -- whether it's Toadstool's latest bellowing, a huge wildfire, a plane crash. If Toadstool doesn't want the attention, then he should stop with the stupid and childish Tweets, and start acting like a grown man and get to presidenting like a leader instead of a teenage diva.
 
2 years in and Trump has major unfilled positions in the cabinet and agencies. He has a 40 percent turnover, an unheard of rate. He has corrupt agency heads fleeing politics with the police on their tails. He has destroyed the EPA ,greenlighting polution . Trumps new nominee is like the rest of them, a coal industry lobbyist. Trumpys tax cut was just another gift to the wealthy who did not need it. It is another step to debt acceleratioon which has been long term plan for the Repubs. They talk fiscal responsibility and govern the opposite. The red voters never catch on. All this and Trump has shut down the government. How fucking bad does he have to govern before the Repub voters figure it out.
 
Putin put him where he is

Mann Cultwhore must have been designated by Putin to order trump around

I wonder how much Putin pays her and what blackmail material Putin has on Mann Cultwhore


hmmm

maybe that she is a post op tranny

I have no idea what the DC concert venue looks like these day. I do know that tax and spend doesn't pay down the debt and that is all the alternative party is interested in. They are soooo hungry to get to the trough again.

Listen to This Insane Audio of Trump Pretending to Be His Own Publicist...

Listen to This Insane Audio of Trump Pretending to Be His Own PR Guy ... Listen to this bizarre audio of Trump posing as his own publicist to brag about money ... but I can't pretend Trump voters ...

In the audio, Definitely-Not-Donald-Trump speaks openly about his boss’s real-estate success (“He’s probably doing as well as anybody there is”), sexual magnetism (“Actresses just call to see if they can go out with him and things") and that one time he went out with Madonna (“He’s got zero interest in Madonna, it was literally the end”).

The Post reports that dealing with John Miller or John Barron (another name frequently used by some PR guy who definitely wasn't Donald Trump, though Trump must have really loved the name since he named his youngest son Barron) was commonplace among reporters who had the distinct pleasure of covering Trump. As Marc Fisher writes:

“[The audio] captures what New York reporters and editors who covered Trump’s early career experienced in the 1970s, ’80s and ’90s: calls from Trump’s Manhattan office that resulted in conversations with 'John Miller' or 'John Barron'—public-relations men who sound precisely like Trump himself — who indeed are Trump.”

Despite having testified in 1990 that he occasionally uses the moniker John Miller, the Republican nominee called into NBC’s Today show to dispel the rumors that it was, in fact, him in the audio.

“No, it doesn’t sound like my voice at all. I have many, many people that are trying to imitate my voice, and you can imagine that, and this sounds like one of the scams, one of the many scams,” Trump said.

“No, it was not me on the phone, and it doesn’t sound like me on the phone, I’ll tell you that, and it was not me on the phone,” Trump added. “And when was this? Twenty-five years ago? Wow, you mean you’re going so low as to talk about something that took place 25 years ago about whether or not I made a phone call I guess you’d say under a presumed name.”

Hello christiefan915,

What a good point!

The media has made him RICH.

Well richER (He was born rich.)

The media took Trump from being a lowly millionaire, and made him a billionaire.

For somebody who says the media is doing him a great disservice, it certainly has served him well.
 
Russin did it folks

Millions given to the NRA to give to republicans


the media did not give it to him


the American people did not give it to him


Russia did

I'm sorry. I was punking you. You can't be blamed for not having heard of that show. I made it up.

And my reference to the Capital Steps went right over your head, but you can't be blamed if you never heard of them.

Yes, the Capitol Steps are a singing group. Enjoy:

It was totally him. It sounds just like him. His voice, and more importantly, his fractured style of speaking where he interrupts himself in mid-sentence to begin another sentence. Also his bragging about what he owned, the greatest, etc.

And he is such a bad liar.

And a bad actor, too.

If he was trying to sound like somebody else, what a screw-up, he sure did a spot-on job of sounding like himself!
