Trump is transparently not up to the actual work of the job, which has paradoxically or not been the closest thing his presidency has to a saving grace; the man himself is a teetering, sopping-wet stack of stupendously cheesy vices and past-due debts, but his forgetfulness and best-in-class distractibility have at least kept him from focusing on making things worse. The best-case scenario is still awful: he watches TV and tweets and thats it, and its all terribly distasteful but at the very least siloed by the marble in which hes encased itself. He can be left there indefinitely, if also sometimes rolled out for those ceremonial duties. Those he will fuck up in hilarious ways, because the man has no idea how to do even simple things. He has never done those simple things and is too stubborn and checked-out and incurious to learn them; all he has done is golf and gossip and complain and sometimes shake rich peoples hands for decades now, and so these things are not simple at all to him.
For instance, heres our guy doing what is easily one of the easiest things a president is asked to do: flip a coin before the kickoff of the annual Army-Navy football game. Good luck, buddy!

(7,142 posts)fucking up a coin toss by flipping it too soon, before the call. In fairness to Joe I think that was the game he was drunk as a skunk, the game where he tried to kiss the broadcaster on the 50 yard line on live TV.
Trump, on the other hand, didn't have an excuse for his stupidity.
I watched some of that game, I missed the coin toss. Did Trump stay for the entire game and switch sides at half time?
