In case you haven’t noticed, Trump believes that he is infallible. He is always right, and no other opinions matter. That might be acceptable if he was the Pope, but the truth is that Trump is very seldom right. Your illegitimate president has made more serious mistakes in his first month than most presidents make in their first term. Of course most presidents listen to their qualified advisers; Trump has none by choice.
Trump’s extremely fragile ego requires constant attention. Two recent incidents prove that he is mentally incompetent to be in the Oval Office.
During a “campaign rally” on Saturday, it appeared that Trump referred to a terrorist attack in Sweden. He later redacted his erroneous remark, claiming that he was referring to a story on FOX Noise regarding immigration. For intelligent men or women, this would be the end of the story, but not for your illegitimate president.
His original comment was: “You look at what’s happening in Germany. You look at what’s happening last night in Sweden. Sweden, who would believe this? Sweden. They took in large numbers and they’re having problems like they never thought possible.”
Swedish officials asked for an explanation from the State Department; none was forthcoming. There were no problems in Sweden; no terrorism, and no difficulty with refugees they have taken into their nation. But Trump had to be Trump, and that has become embarrassing.
“Give the public a break – The FAKE NEWS media is trying to say that large scale immigration in Sweden is working out just beautifully. NOT!” Trump tweeted.
Okay, it was a tweet and we couldn’t see if his lips were moving, but he was lying either way.
The final word came from Swedish officials.
“We look forward to informing the US administration about Swedish immigration and integration policies.”
Trump was subtly put ‘in his place.’
The second issue involves a senior National Security Council adviser. Craig Deare had the nerve to openly disagree with Trump’s policies regarding Latin America, and revealed a “dysfunctional White House environment.” Deare was quickly demoted back to his former position at the National Defense University.
What can we say about a man who believes that he cannot make an honest mistake? It is obvious to even a person of less than average intelligence that Trump suffers from an extreme case of paranoia. It is not acceptable to have a man as leader of the free world who has such an incredibly weak temperament. He is a danger to our nation and to world peace.
I was taught that a real man admits his mistakes, and hopefully learns from them.
Trump has a lot to learn. Meanwhile our nation will suffer.
