Trump watches up to 5-7 hrs of TV per day, and plays golf all weekend..

[HipChick]

In between his Twitter ramblings and insulting and 2 scoops of vanilla and various photo ops..

When does he actually do any governing? or has he pretty much outsourced what is left of the US Presidency?

[madokie]

1. You have to have some knowledge

to govern and tRump has none of that. Evidenced by his habits

[left-of-center2012]

2. I read a couple months ago that ...

He spends the evenings alone,
dressed only in his bathrobe,
watching TV.

[smirkymonkey]

19. Yes, it was unappealing then.

It is completely revolting now. Can you just imagine what he looks like raging about the White House in a bathrobe?

[dalton99a]

3. He is not interested. And he doesn't care.

[DrDan]

4. what do you want him to do . . . study the issues?

[NRaleighLiberal]

5. repubs don't govern.

[Auntie Bush]

6. You'd think he'd spend some time on learning how to be president.

I guess he doesn't have to know anything because his cabinet and aids do all the work and make all the decisions...he just poses while he signs stuff that others put in front of him. He doesn't know enough about any topic to make any decision himself. Bet Bannon is leading this country.😢

7. Hipchick, who is the source for the tv watching hours?

I am curious. Thanks

8. Google is your friend...

12. Thank you. I appreciate you sharing your source

[nolabear]

13. Those are from Jan and April. I'm sure he's pivoted by now.

[HipChick]

15. you owe me a coffee..

The one I was drinking is on my screen..

[nolabear]

18. Any time. The more caffeine for this shitshow the better.

9. A year ago, I recall an almost-exact quote from Lawrence O'Donnell -

"This guy is lazy. He would prefer to just sit around in his pajamas and eat ice cream!"

Keep in mind, this was well before he was actually elected!

[Sugar Smack]

10. He doesn't ACT, like what we're accustomed to:

?1420511110

Trump reacts. That's all he ever does.

[hatrack]

21. I wouldn't call it "reacting" . . .

"Pouting", "bludgeoning", "screeching", "whining" could be more accurate.

[Sugar Smack]

23. "Puling", "spluttering", "tweeting" & "eating".

I stand corrected.

[hedda_foil]

11. Worse . He believes faux news is reality. Everything else is fake and a lie.

To the boorionaire in chief, reality itself is fake.

[Yonnie3]

14. He has plenty of time in his schedule for TV (and Twitter)

I note the conspicuous absence of intelligence briefings. There is nothing but feel good appearances in this schedule. When does he actually govern? <--- This is a rhetorical question.

17. So let me get this straight...he is wasting taxpayers money to come back to DC for a few hours

and then go back to NJ

FFS

20. He is working hard for America, so hard!

He said during the campaign, “I would rarely leave the White House because there’s so much work to be done, I would not be a president who took vacations. I would not be a president that takes time off.”

I guess he has all that work caught up.

[Oneironaut]

16. He does nothing. I think it's all his son-in-law and daughter

That's not a bad thing - would anyone really want Trump making decisions?

[sinkingfeeling]

22. He's a self-appointed CEO. He delegates to others.
