I see a common pattern:
Lots of excuses for it but nothing addressing it.Deflection for when one wants to avoid facing an issue.

I laughed at “I’m going to buy Greenland”. I thought – finally, a joke from the guy.Turned out he meant it. Mr. President is nuts. Sorry folks.

Nah, it’s a problem. It’s not 4D chess or a clever distraction and it’s not creative.It’s nuts. He had years to show otherwise. Nuts.

At 8 yrs old, I followed 1980 election cycle as much as an 8 yr old could. I don’t think anybody in the house followed it but I did.I liked John B Anderson. I didn’t know 3 parties was uncommon.What happened to him? Founded and ran FairVote ’til 2008.and my politics haven’t changed from his much since.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FairVote

He canceled the trip because they laughed at the notion.An even slightly self-aware individual would go “Shucks, yeah you got me” and had tea together anyway.

It’s not to him though. Blind to it. It’s a problem.

You’re justifying it “as if” a normal creative individual did it.But you can’t start from that footing. It started from the mind of an unwell individual who is in a powerful position. It iddn’t start from a rational mind.

Also in 1868. It’s not “policy for decades”. It was tried. Twice – and with justifications.This was what? Whim.

Gotta face facts one day, folks.

US President is not a monarch position. It boils to that.
====
The reasoning FOR the US Revolution was that an unreasonable monarch – George III – was in charge.Trump is not a leader. Most of his followers do not live in the USA. Only about 1/3 of USA supports him.
====
Leadership is a quality. You can buy a position as leader but that does not make one a leader.
====
I see Trump as amoral but not immoral. Similar to Ayn Randian thinking but without the smarts.

I’ve known him since the 80s in NJ. My opinions of him never changed. Don’t hate him – never hated him. He’s just Peter Principle in a big big way now.

It’s not the what but the how. Bush was a silly enough president.
