What an odd thing to say given that we’ve learned today that the 1,000 or so troops pulled out of Syria have not been brought home but have been moved to Iraq to battle ISIS and even more US troops have been sent to Saudi Arabia. And what oil is there to be secured along the Turkey – Syria boarder if that is what his Tweet was trying to imply?
And getting the name of his Defense Secretary wrong? If my boss gets my name wrong, that’s one thing – embarrassing for my boss and likely to piss me off, but the POTUS getting the name of his own Secretary of Defense wrong? And “Esparanto� Isn’t that a made up language?
Either Trump is having some sort of mental breakdown or he’s actually wanting to, purposely putting himself in a position be impeached. Perhaps he’s recalling that Nixon was pardoned and had a pretty nice retirement along with SS protection for life. Think about it. He could parley his popularity into a whole new brand, a TV show, even his own news network and still do his real estate deals.
Seriously. While I’m sure our recently reactivated bot “Peggy†and others of the somewhat less crazed but pro-Trump - he can do no wrong ever crowd will heartily disagree, I’m actually beginning to think that Trump really doesn’t want to be POTUS anymore.
I think he finds the job with all its details and intricacies and the responsibilities boring and not nearly as “fun†as making real estate deals and being on reality TV. Hence his bizarre decision to hold the G7 at Doral, which he had to walk back under pressure not only from the dems and the media but from his own party and had to have known would resulted in such.
Even his chief of staff Mulvaney today said that Trump still "considers himself to be in the hospitality business."
And I am all for him going back into that business.
