I would argue that Trump does NOT have the wisdom or security to employ experts and allow them to guide his actions or advise him. He chooses sycophants who tell him what he wants to hear, often know nothing about the department they're leading, and values their loyalty to him personally over the best interests of the department or the country. A bunch of bumbling fools, with a few exceptions.
That is what happens when you elect a pompous showman rather than a skilled administrator.

To me, it's a strong indication of mental illness, .


What's amazing is, we managed to elect
3 mentally ill presidents, 3 mental boobs,
incompetent boobs, according to the Dems.

Reagan was a deranged unstable dottering
old fool. Bush was a mental midget, so
stupid and slow witted he could barely tie
his shoes without help. And now the poor
addlepated Donald. He spends all day drooling
in front of CNN and guzzling one Diet Coke
after another, in between tweets.

LOL!

Trump loves Oprah. Do his supporters not share his opinions on her? Shocking!

Yeah, people thought Reagan might be slipping, especially late in his second term. They thought Bush was a little unintelligent and a coke-head. And they think Trump is an idiot.

The fact that those are all Republicans, and those people didn't express negative opinions about the Democrats, doesn't mean that they aren't right.

Auburn Green, California Condo Association insists homeowners keep garage doors wide open all day long to prove no one is living there. Considerable resentment and opposition to two hundred dollar fines, opportunities for burglary, etc.

Holy crap, are you underplaying this or what.
Magnify what you said 10 fold and you'll be
close to what the Left said about these men
from day 1 of their presidencies. It's a card
they always play, that Libs in all walks of
life play against opponents. Take everything
to the schoolyard, name calling and spit
balling. This is why they hate Trump, he gives
it right back at them with equal force. Trump
himself is a NYC Lib to his core, he's just
playing a conservative in the WH. His whole
career is name calling and spit balling.

Nobody understands that Trump is neither
Dem or Repub. He goes with whichever side
he needs to go with at the moment. He has
no real core beliefs. That's what makes him so
formidable. He's a pragmatist, not an idealist.

Reagan developed Alzheimer's Disease, it's on record. whether he was already affected by its early stages in the last years of his presidency isn't known. But it's probable.

Bush the younger was prone to malapropisms, and wasn't what you'd call knowledgeable in areas like foreign policy, a fact he kept on making abundantly clear. He also invaded Iraq, which ranks as one of the greatest bonehead moves in the history of boneheadedness. Not only that, but with an army not quite ready to do so, while fighting another major war.

Trump is an idiot. Period. He possesses a deep ignorance of politics and policy, yet thinks he knows better than anyone else. He also lacks any desire to learn, and he wouldn't know tact if it came and shook his hand.

Well, I'd say Bill Clinton is an idiot, too. That, or he keeps his brains between his legs. after the major problems he faced due to extramarital affairs and sexual harassment. you'd think he would know better than to get into another extramarital affair with a subordinate while in office, but he went and did anyway. adn then he lied about it when a lie didn't even help him. If he'd been impeached for stupidity, he should have been convicted.
