The level of ignorance is astonishing. This example may seem of minor importance, but, for me, it's a metaphor that signals the future functioning of the Trump presidency.
Following his meeting last week with President-elect Donald Trump, President Obama decided he needed to spend more time than a president typically would guiding Trump's transition to the White House, according to a Sunday Wall Street Journal report.
At the meeting, Trump seemed surprised by the duties of the president, and his staff seemed unaware that the entire administration staff had to be replaced...
President Obama will attempt to give Trump and his top aides more schooling on the operations of the Oval Office and the West Wing, not because he will enjoy doing so, but out of concern for the people of the country.
Not at all surprised ... DT thinks he ran for king or autocrat of some fictional land in which "fair" means people are nice to him and therefor "good" and worthy of his niceness in return ... that he has no actual experience with democratic governance other than trying to bribe the odd politician means he has no idea how to govern ... late night tweets are not leading, they're just his ID having it's own way, again ... oh, and that military school he attended: shame on you guys who sent him out into the world without a single shred of shame or self-discipline - you failed and we get the result - shame on you who taught him nothing useful.
ReplyDeleteOh Marthe! When will my sadness go away? Not soon, I expect.
DeleteHe can't fool all of the people all of the time ... until the country smartens up, there's always alcohol. The good news? This too, shall pass.
DeleteNo alcohol for me, except the occasional glass of wine. I take too much medication for my back troubles.
DeleteAnd Jesus turned the water into wine ... :-)
DeleteYou made me smile. Thanks, Marthe.

ReplyDeleteFeel better, Mimi (I know, I still call you "Mimi"---force of habit!). There's Democratic Senator for you to elect next month!
Mimi's fine, JCF. My grandchildren and other people still call me Mimi, so I answer to the name. Yes, I'm helping Foster Campbell, the Democratic nominee. Rachel Maddow said he's getting help from all around the country. Good. He'll be a longshot, but you never know. Thanks.
