The POTUS should be a role model that kids emulate to be not some rich asshole jerk who disrespects people.





Sigh...I miss the smart gentleman President Obama.

I would encourage them to apply that "thinking" to all areas of their lives, such as picking a surgeon or managing wealth. See if those things go better with a total lack of competency.

I just think he's pretty illiterate overall. I doubt he's done much writing throughout his life. Tony Schwartz confirmed he didn't write a single word of The Art of the Deal. He's misspells those words because he's bad at writing. He's an intellectually lazy buffoon, not some criminal mastermind.
