The Trump Presidency Is Over!

When, in January 2016, I wrote that despite being a lifelong Republican who worked in the previous three GOP administrations, I would never vote for Donald Trump, even though his administration would align much more with my policy views than a Hillary Clinton presidency would, a lot of my Republican friends were befuddled. How could I not vote for a person who checked far more of my policy boxes than his opponent?
What I explained then, and what I have said many times since, is that Trump is fundamentally unfit—intellectually, morally, temperamentally, and psychologically—for office. For me, that is the paramount consideration in electing a president, in part because at some point it’s reasonable to expect that a president will face an unexpected crisis—and at that point, the president’s judgment and discernment, his character and leadership ability, will really matter.
“Mr. Trump has no desire to acquaint himself with most issues, let alone master them” is how I put it four years ago. “No major presidential candidate has ever been quite as disdainful of knowledge, as indifferent to facts, as untroubled by his benightedness.” I added this:
Mr. Trump’s virulent combination of ignorance, emotional instability, demagogy, solipsism and vindictiveness would do more than result in a failed presidency; it could very well lead to national catastrophe. The prospect of Donald Trump as commander in chief should send a chill down the spine of every American.
It took until the second half of Trump’s first term, but the crisis has arrived in the form of the coronavirus pandemic, and it’s hard to name a president who has been as overwhelmed by a crisis as the coronavirus has overwhelmed Donald Trump.

I really get tired of these "I'm so Republican I'm the most Republican conservative ever in history and here's why I hate Donald Trump and I'm right".
Sigh

How many people died of swine flu and who was the president at the time?

WTF? What would they have him do? He wanted to be proactive and shut down travel a long time ago but idiots couldn't have that.
What would they do? Their only answer is to just throw money at it. What kind of genius does it take to come up with that?
This is OMB to the max.

Lol this is only going to fuel the fire for his reelection. The people that voted for him and were on the fence are seeing this for what it really is.

Tell us more. I’m aware of the Schumer criticism re: China, but you’re insinuating a lockdown of all international travel into the USA.
Link?

This is all Donald Trump ever was. Its been known for DECADES. He was the primary reason that the USFL shut down.....he became a stake-holder in the new league when he could care less about its future viability. He only did it to try and use it as leverage to get ownership of a NFL team in the New York area.
And as so doing, he created a wage-war within the USFL when the original model was more about steady growth over years instead of shooting the wad. All to try to place the USFL as a threat to the NFL, and create bargaining power to get some USFL teams (namely, HIS team) added to the senior league.
The other owners never wanted to merge with the NFL. They honestly thought they had a viable entertainment product of playing football in the spring and early summer months, that could run alongside the NFL model for the foreseeable future.
And so because of Trump, the other owners pumped money into the league that they couldn't afford, before the young league got popular enough to sustain that kind of spending. And so they basically spent themselves to death.
And Trump never got that NFL team, nor even a piece of ownership, because the rest of the NFL knew what everyone other then Repubs know about the man: he a retarded idiot.....

You know this Wehner guy gets hard whenever he reads or hears the Corona death count go up.
