When Donald Trump declared his intention to acquire the Republican nomination for the presidency in June of 2015, he was too ignorant to understand that this decision would expose him for the charlatan and coward that had been known by the business world for decades.

Trump’s chief financial adviser, Gary Cohn, just resigned. This is a quote he offered according to Michael Wolff in his damning book about Trump and his chaotic White House.

“It’s worse than you can imagine. An idiot surrounded by clowns. Trump won’t read anything – not one-page memos, not the brief policy papers; nothing. He gets up halfway through meetings with world leaders because he is bored. And his staff is no better. Kushner is an entitled baby who knows nothing. Bannon is an arrogant prick who thinks he’s smarter than he is. Trump is less a person than a collection of terrible traits. No one will survive the first year but his family. I hate the work, but feel I need to stay because I’m the only person there with a clue what he’s doing. The reason so few jobs have been filled is that they only accept people who pass ridiculous purity tests, even for midlevel policy-making jobs where the people will never see the light of day.”

I don’t think I can add anything to this statement. Everything Trump does is moronic. He has no ability to use the English language so he tweets. His mental incompetence is a danger not only to our nation but to the future of the world.

Trump is so ignorant that he believes we can be fooled about his collusion with Vladimir Putin which began in Moscow in 2005. Those of us who follow what is happening in Washington are fully aware that Putin and Robert Mercer are pulling Trump’s strings, and selected his cabinet and closest advisers.

Trump can claim to be intelligent, but in 14 months he has proven that his intellect is far below average. He and his spawn are pretenders and failures; or as Trump would call himself and his klan, “losers.”
