trump thought being president would be easier than being a reality teevee star

Jeez this fucking fool just gets dumber and dumber....

quote:

"I loved my previous life, I loved my previous life. I had so many things going," Trump told Reuters. "I actually, this is more work than my previous life. I thought it would

be easier."

Who knew you need to hire staff?
Who knew how healthcare works?
Who knew how NATO works?
Who knew how the EU works?
Who knew how Congress works?
Who knew how the Courts work?
Who knew how NAFTA works?
Who knew how the Export-Import bank works?

If only there was some simple easy way to look this stuff up on my Twitter machine thingy.

was the hardest job on earth. And because he was a rich TV star, why, he must be the smartest, hardest working person on the planet.

Ergo, he sat there looking at Obama as president, thinking, how hard can it be? You're not trying to make money, you're spending it.

Every day brings a new international embarrassment from this asshole.

I'm sure many people tried, but he didn't want to listen. I wish Trump would just resign. He obviously can't handle the job and doesn't really want to do it. The majority of the country (and the world) thinks he is doing a horrible job. If he would do the right thing and resign, instead of continuing this ego trip, that would actually help his reputation.
