"DEFENDERS of President Donald Trump offer two arguments in his favour—that he is a businessman who will curb the excesses of the state; and that he will help America stand tall again by demolishing the politically correct taboos of left-leaning, establishment elites. From the start, these arguments looked like wishful thinking. After Mr Trump’s press conference in New York on August 15th they lie in ruins."

Donald Trump is at best an incompetent buffoon, and at worse he is every bit as evil as liberals say he is. If you're still defending him or his presidency there's something seriously wrong with you.
Mr. Trump campaigned heavily on the theme of 'draining the swamp". He told us a few thousand times he had "the most amazing people" and boasted about his first 100 day and the accomplishments that were to come. Today, the most noteworthy and impacting EO has been the Muslim travel ban that isn't a ban.
Instead of draining the swamp, Mr. Trump has flooded a new one, even importing chaos poorly chosen aids, and turned the White House into a swinging door for staff. Clearly he is a poor judge of character, which usually comes with those so in love with themselves.
Mr. Trump has not been president. He has not acted presidential. He has been a selfish, spoiled little boy who wants his way, no matter what. So, the nation embroils itself in further division for nearly a week over a stupid comment while real issues continue to fester, he and his aid unable to fix what needs fixin'. The few initiatives he has brought forward have been shadowed, no eclipsed by the constant barrage of Trump's 'get even' tweeting and comments, fighting small wars over the least of slights.
He is not a president. He is a strutting peacock who had no idea of the depth of the job. So now, he wallows in his media wars, tweeting and in-fighting which appear to be his comfort zone. All that may make him feel like a president, but he is becoming more irrelevant as each days passes as his so highly touted advisor boards collapse from the weight of this child-man's spite and stupidity.
What remains is the insult of feint praise and some kind of hope that he will somehow magically pull it all together. But what we know for sure is that if Trump is saying it, it's likely not true, and secondly, he hasn't a clue about the job he insists he is so great at.
If anyone can look back at the last week and say that America is "greater" now than when he came to office is lying...to themselves.
