Donald Trump does not want to be in charge of any of this.

1. He's so fired

[ProfessorGAC]

2. K&R

I think he hates every part of the job aside from the rallies.

[notdarkyet]

9. Golf and making money off us.

[Butterflylady]

20. And trashing everything Obama did.

[Zoonart]

3. If there's any solace in schadenfreude, in MF45's reign of terror...

it is the absolute certainty that he hates the JOB of President with every fiber of his being.

He is a monstrously damaged and twisted human being. His abject narcissism and psychopathy is now exposed for the world to see and he cannot hide it any longer. Exposed, as he is, he is now intent on burning it all down.

In Robert Graves, I CLAUDIUS... there is a moment when Caligula, fully exposed for the monster he is, gives up entirely on ruling Rome and states, "If Rome had one neck, I'd hack it through." This is where we are with MF45.

Just MHO.

11. THIS

In Robert Graves, I CLAUDIUS... there is a moment when Caligula, fully exposed for the monster he is, gives up entirely on ruling Rome and states, "If Rome had one neck, I'd hack it through."

I'm waiting for that moment

[ananda]

14. Yes. I've been thinking of Trump as Caligula for awhile now.

[SoonerPride]

24. I agree with this 100%

I only fear how unhinged he may get as the pressure mounts and his loss is inevitable.

I have no idea the kind of hell he will unleash on us for daring to take him down. But it will be bad.

Worse than letting 250,000 people die from COVID-19.

[HotTeaBag]

26. I've been thinking about this too.

If Biden does win, Trump will spend November, December and January destroying as much as he can.

[greymattermom]

4. I think that Trump considers playing the role on tv

is the job. His reality is reality tv.

[Yavin4]

5. This is the most work that he's ever done in his entire life

Imagine that your first real job in your life is POTUS. Before this, other people did the hard work. He just took credit and sometimes never paid him. Most of his properties are built, owned, and operated by other entities. They just pay him to put his name on it.

He doesn't know how to lead. That's why he has to rely on yelling, screaming, and insults to motivate people to work.

[tanyev]

6. But he's not just refusing to do the job, he's interfering with everyone

who's trying to do their jobs properly. We'd be doing much better if they were simply doing nothing instead of all these exercises in sociopathy.

[lagomorph777]

7. Right: not zero work; he's doing NEGATIVE work.

Actively harming people by stealing PPE, test kits, etc.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

23. Exactly

Him doing absolutely nothing would probably be an improvement at this point. But he's got his supporters out in the streets protesting governors whom are trying to handle things competently and then he's got his Attorney General harassing them as well with threats of legal actions for any orders that his holiness feels "goes too far" And if all of that isn't bad enough, they're stealing supplies designated for states and McConnell and his Senate crew are dividing the country in terms of States they deem as "givers" and others as "takers", taking their attacks on public to a whole new State-by-State level. And Trump is now trying to mix his hard-core racist immigrant policies into requests for aid. All of this is making an already bad situation inestimably worse.

[SoonerPride]

25. This is why I hope he can go back to playing golf and having rallies

At least he will be out of the way of professionals trying to help.

If there are any left in DC that is.

[FailureToCommunicate]

8. Republicans seem okay with the Orange Clown antics, so long as behind the scene they

can do their evil best to privatize America, and weaken any democratic institutions, all at the alter of their god: the almighty $$$.

[Auggie]

12. +1,000,000

[rickyhall]

10. Fine. Appoint some real experts not toadies, then you can say, "I saved it."

[Different Drummer]

13. He may have thought the Presidency was going to be...

all ribbon cutting ceremonies and throwing out the first pitch at Nationals home openers.

[blakstoneranger]

15. I'LL GO A STEP FURTHER

If he had won the popular vote, he would have stepped down by now.
He not only doesn't want anything to do with this virus, he really only wants to be president to entertain his "fans" at taxpayer's expense. And yes, he refers to his base as "fans". He only wants to entertain, he is a baffoon, a clown, and he likes it. This is why he creates controversy and fights with the media---it's entertainment for his "fans". Man, I'm so sick of talkin about this dude.....I'm completely burnt out on this guy!

[Roc2020]

16. That's why he does not read briefings

His 'plan' was all that mattered. Bet all in on the economy. Stir up his base by winking at racism. And attack attack and attack some more the media and Dems. Everyone has a plan until a pandemic punches you in the face.

17. The Kasich deal, only with Jared now

[Laura PourMeADrink]

18. And conniving to protect himself...but I still don't get why

GOP Governors opened early. Good for trump, because if they fail, and virus grows, he can say he told them so. But what was in it for them?

[keithbvadu2]

19. There was a tweet from 2016, I think, about gov't responsibility to keep people safe.

[AllaN01Bear]

21. he and pence and the entire exec along with the judicial and upper senate

should step down.

[bluevoter4life]

22. We've been saying this since Day 1

He never actually wanted to DO the job, he just wanted to WIN the job.

[Blue Owl]

27. He's not a real president but he plays one on TV
