Ryan: The President is new at this.

Not buying it.

Every President is supposed to be able to hit the ground running on Inauguration Day.

Every President has a Chief of Staff, WH Counsel, advisors, etc. to assist her/him.

Trump bragged on the campaign trail that he was the best and would be the best.

Trump's outrage with the Bill Clinton/Lynch encounter has been conveniently overlooked by the Republicans.

12. So? EVERY president is "new at this" when they first step in the door.

Up until now, though, they've all seemed to survive it. Maybe Comrade Fatass just didn't bother reading the job description of what he was running for.

15. No, Ryan. He isn't getting better at it.

He is getting worse---if that is possible. When you're already at the bottom of the barrel, I don't know how you'd do that. Oh, wait! Maybe he could go shoot someone on 5th Avenue....😱

You're either ready for that job or you are not. Trump is not.

20. Obama took time to listen to the Bush team as they left office.

It was an overall smooth transition that was taken extremely seriously by two adults. Trump felt he was the best and smartest person around and wouldn't take time to educate himself from Obama and his team. Ryan, Trump himself determined no one could do it better. The President might be new at this but his own words reflect the fact that he thinks he is the best at it. Cut the absolute bullshit.
