GWB redux: Spicer says Trump is "The Decider".

http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/4/10/1652000/--Trump-doctrine-emerges-He-is-the-decider

Spicer's answer on an issue related to all the White House infighting between Steve Bannon and Jared Kushner elicited a more telling answer about the so-called “Trump doctrine.”

“He doesn’t want a monolithical kind of thought process going through the White House. He wants a diverse set of opinions. He is the decider,” Spicer said.



----------

Let's sum up what GWB and Trump have in common so far:
- an irrational desire to lash out at perceived enemies
- a middle-eastern country with weapons of mass-destruction
- a disputed election-victory, claimed to be a public mandate
- no military experience but likes to play dress-up as soldier
- "The Decider"

At least we could "have a beer" with Bush. I feel like Trump would walk into a bar, order a drink, call it peasant swill, and then get infuriated and embarrassed after learning it was Trump Vodka and storm out.

"Favorite beer and why?"

And then the challenge: Open a crown-cap beer-bottle and pour the beer into a glass with as little foam as possible.

Spend the night running up a massive tab, and then disappear when the time came to pay.
