So let's review shall we?

He has claimed he "knows more than the Generals".
He has a plan to "defeat ISIS in 30 days".
A solution to the Israeli/Palestinian conflict is "easy".
That he has a "very good mind".
Plus he railed against Loretta Lynch for meeting with Bill Clinton.

But we're suppose to believe he doesn't know any better?
That dog don't hunt.

GOP’s New Defense of Trump: The Guy’s A Toddler, He Doesn’t Know Any Better
From taking sides in the Qatar dispute to leaning on an FBI director to drop an investigation, Trump’s blunders should be excused, the argument goes.

Ignorance is no excuse. Every other new administration had experts on their transition teams to prevent mistakes by omission and commission. Trump's transition team are all lobbyists now! Trump thought this "Presidentin' thing" was going to be SO easy! Too bad, asscrack, you get no quarter for being a dumbass.

So Ryan and the rest of the GOP can take this miserable "excuse" and stick it where the sun don't shine.

When Trump excused the VP, AG, his Chief of Staff from the room before playing his Godfather routine with Comey, demonstrates what lawyers call "recognition of guilty."

It is their blunder. He is their candidate, their president. We told ya so! A million times we told ya. But you idiot assholes plugged your ears and shouted MAGA! Now those chickens are coming home to roost.

..............just get a job at a convenience store, take all the money out of the cash register every night you work there and take it home. When they discover that you've been stealing from the till, just say, "I'm new here; I didn't know I wasn't supposed to steal." Bingo, you get to keep all the money and not be charged with a crime.

you position people on your transition team that KNOW what the hell they're doing, not a bunch of bumblefucks who are in a hurry to get out the door and start their lobbying careers. You then hit the ground running the day you're inaugurated. There's no 6 month "trial by error" period where the world will give you "do overs" because you're a dumb shit.

Would the GOP give a Democrat 6 months to learn the ropes, with no penalty for major fuck-ups? Not in this, or any other, life. So cram your stupid excuse up your rectum, Ryan! This stupid son of a bitch HAS TO GO!
