As a Scout leader (of a progressive MA troop) Trump fails every tenet of the Scout Law

[mreilly]

I've been thinking about this a lot lately. We had a President named Jerry Ford who was once an Eagle Scout. Maybe he wasn't the best President, but I am sure he knew the Scout Law forwards and backwards even decades later:

"A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent."

Let's take a look at President Pussy Grabber and see how he measures up, shall we?

"A Scout is trustworthy." He's literally the worst liar in politics. Lies CONSTANTLY. About big things, little things, important things, meaningless things. He seems to thrive on lying the way some people thrive on sex, substances, food, exercise, entertainment or any of the other things which get us up in the morning.

"A Scout is loyal." Are you kidding me? This asshole will backstab ANYONE who doesn't toe his line. ANYONE. He's gone after former allies like Comey (who released those emails to smear Hillary and tip the election towards Trump), GOP leaders, stiffed contractors... you name it. Zero shred of loyalty to anyone except his family and I'll guarantee you that's only because he knows he can control them. Without him, they're nothing.

"A Scout is helpful." How the hell has this asshole helped anyone besides himself and his friends? Oh, he went to Puerto Rico and threw a few paper towel rolls, then said PR just wants everyone to do everything for them? He's tried to kick millions off health insurance, gut the economy through budget-busting tax breaks and only called military families when he was pressured into it, then he fucked that up too.

"A Scout is friendly." OMG, this is the worst one. He is the nastiest, shrillest, most vindictive son of a bitch ever to occupt the Oval Office. His daily Tweets illustrate what a sniveling crybaby he is, full of malice and hatred. Even his supporters would have a hard time defending him against this since they LOVE the fact he's an asshole like them.

"A Scout is courteous." This is the asshole who shoved past people at the NATO Summit to get into a photo op. He is routinely rude, condescending, mocking, belittling, immature and vengeful. Not a courteous bone in his body. The only courtesy he seems to show is to the daughter he seems to be overly attracted to.

"A Scout is kind." This is a scumbag who won't release his tax returns in part because I'm sure they will reveal he hasn't done jack-shit for charity. He doesn't help other people. He helps himself, and tosses crumbs to his supporters and allies, until they piss him off (see the part about loyalty) at which point he attempts to destroy them. He does nothing but slander and smear people he doesn't like.

"A Scout is obedient." Not Trump. He defies any and all laws, rules, regulations, ethics, edicts or requirements which he finds inconvenient. If it benefits him to comply with any (e.g. PR purposes) he may do so, but the moment it's inconvenient or painful it goes out the window. Period. And he sits there and whines it's unfair or he's being picked on. He truly believes rules are for other people, never him.

"A Scout is cheerful." LOL. His entire persona is one of infantile rage. RAGE. Rage if he's challenged. Rage if he's proven wrong. Rage if the media presents the facts to the public about what an utter shit he is. Even when he wins, say the election, he's still fuming and ranting about how Hillary won the popular vote or Obama had bigger inaugural crowds. He is literally one of the most unhappy sons of bitches I have EVER seen.

"A Scout is thrifty." Oh, yeah, he's thrifty all right... using OUR taxpayer dollars to protect his wife, fly his worthless orange ass around to stay at his various resorts so he can profit from it, golf constantly and refuse to do much if any actual Presidential work. But the problem here is Forbes says he's lost millions so he can't even manage to rake in the bucks by grifting in the White House!

"A Scout is brave." Oh my God. He is the biggest fucking coward on the planet. Dodged the draft citing non-existing bone spurs which didn't keep him off the golf course, said avoiding STDs was his "personal Vietnam," won't attend dinners or functions where he might actually be criticized or even not 100% revered, isn't man enough to EVER admit a mistake but just blathers and sobs about "fake news!", made his Cabinet talk about how great he is(n't) and so on and so forth. A complete chicken-shit who whines and cries like a baby on Twitter all day.

"A Scout is clean." We refer to "clean" as physically and morally clean. I don't care if he takes ten showers a day; he's a pig. He walks in on naked girls changing, brags he's going to be dating underage girls later, brags about sexually assaulting women, rips off contractors, screws Trump University chumps, doesn't follow through on pledges to charity... you name it, this SOB is as dirty as they come.

"A Scout is reverent." I don't even really have to get into this one. He is reverent of nothing. He has no morals, no ethics, no code, no religion, nothing inside him which serves as any kind of compass for decency. The fact Bible-thumping right-wing motherfuckers side with this useless son of a bitch is all the proof we need of how irreverent he is.

1. Trump is a moron and a loser.

The Scouts wouldn't have him.

3. Excellent post

but remember he fails every aspect associated with being a gentleman, let alone a scout.

He is the definition of a vile scumbag, a cad, an uncouth, vulgar and racist pig to boot.

4. As the father of an Eagle Scout and former COR, I agree with your analysis
