Because he’s deaf and can’t read. He got a hurricane briefing once and tried to correct the drawing with his personal hopes and dreams. That was the last time they gave him a hurricane brief.
People who support this dude are weird for not seeing he’s not fit for office. He should step down and let someone younger go, like Biden did. He has way too much ego to admit he lost an election, nevermind stepping down, but it would be the play
I’m not American. The fact that you guys have Trump as one of your two options just shows how absolutely shit the people and the country is.
Doesn’t it? Nobody is 100% at 80 years old. Also they won’t have to live with their decisions.
Nikki Haley was (hopefully) right, that the first party to replace their old white guy would win
Donald, 100%, what would that even look like? Sexually assault twice as many women? Bankrupt twice as many company’s?
It 100% has to do with his age of you consider the chances of dementia in a 30—60 year old candidate, and then in him, a candidate with full-blown dementia.
Pepridge Farm remembers this. He used a Sharpie, and wanted to detonate a nuclear bomb on American soil.
Well I don’t think that’s the real problem here - if you could nuke a hurricane out of existence, it would be a feasible option. The area of effect of a nuke is a lot smaller than media has led us to believe, and if you detonate it at the right height there’s not much fallout. It’s a totally reasonable option… If it worked
The problem is, it wouldn’t work. For any competent president, this was just a bit of brainstorming. It’s creative out of the box thinking, I bet previous presidents have asked the same thing
And that’s the problem. The conversation should’ve gone “can we nuke the hurricane? Have we looked into that?” “Yes Mr President, we’ve looked into it and it just doesn’t math out”. And then they continue on with disaster preparations like a sane person
The problem is: why did we even hear about this? Even the most harsh critics couldn’t make brainstorming look bad, throwing out any idea that pops into your head is the point.
But he had a creative idea, and where most people would feel a moment of disappointment and move on, or maybe even task people to reevaluate the option, he bragged about it in public. He turned “the science doesn’t work” into “they wouldn’t let me”
And honestly, it’s probably one of the best ideas he’s ever had…“if sunlight kills the virus, can we use that?”, “if bleach kills the virus, could we inject bleach?” - it shows like understanding of biology, but a president doesn’t need to know biology. They just need to hear “this wouldn’t work” from someone who understands the science, and move on
But the damaged little snowflake he is, he doesn’t let go of the weirdest of ideas, because they made him feel smart for a moment and he’s deeply insecure. He brags about his brainstorming sessions, which is weird, and then he presents his ideas in public as “they wouldn’t let me” instead of “this was a neat idea, but unfortunately it wouldn’t work”
And that’s far more disturbing. Having a creative idea is good, having it turn out to be impractical is fine, but holding onto it and pitching it to the public is deeply worrying
He’s also making elected officials dance while he doesn’t even hold office. If that’s not an insider, then what is?
