If he's too stupid to be president then remove him.

That's a sick sorry excuse

Except for Jared & Ivanka..and what would those two know about ethics, law or policy enough to advise the Pres of the USA.

They probably know more about Russia

seems to be,it is Hillary's fault,it is Bill Clinton's meeting with Lynch,which was stupid at best. Benghazi and E-mail Servers.

If he's so "naive," we need to make sure no one ever took advantage of him in his business dealings! Don't we owe it to him to take care of him, don't we?

GRRRRRRRRRR!

Deplorable.

Ignorance is no defense, media.
Naivete is no excuse, media.
Stupidity re the law has never been an excuse, whether over a blowjob, or over asking investigators to not investigate.

tRump has often tweeted to shift attention. These tweets have been laughably transparent. I'm sure in his mind he is Machiavellian.
