Trump: learn while you earn

Guys, you know I went to some effort to resurrect a general Trump thread for the last few posts here....

But you only did it because it's Easter.

9. Lincoln was a republican.

Whoever gets the gig in 2020 is going to look like the best president ever!

Trump raised 13.2 million. Hillary, um, well, er, a little slow on the starting line.

The entire politics subforum is a Trump thread.

The entire politics subforum is a Trump thread.

It's the best sub-forum!

Who would have thunk that Donald Trump has no idea what he is doing?

Or that he would take the job then fairly quickly go on an extended vacation.

8. Golfing at every opportunity while president is not such a bad thing.

Unless you happen to have an aviation business in the area or being a pilot who inadvertently smashed through the no-fly zone during Trump's visit at Mar-a-Lago

I also enjoy that the "America First" guy is learning about foreign policy matters from other countries with their own agenda.

"China just told me that Tibet and Taiwan are theirs. I had no idea. All those monks trying to steal land from China, SAD!"

"Hey, I just got done talking to Hitler. He told me the Sudetenland was all German, anyway. Totally cool that he annexed it."

Just want to circle back to this.

Our doofus in chief managed to ignite a bit of an international incident with South Korea (this seems like maybe the wrong time to piss off South Korea?):

He said that Korea used to be "part of China."

So, after his 10 minute history lesson with the president of China, Trump starts spouting Chinese propaganda.

In-***********-credible. It's kind of a problem when your president doesn't know anything and can effortlessly be swayed by invested parties. He doesn't even know that what he said was deeply troubling to our ally. He just had a 10 minute conversation and thinks he knows how the world works.

Just amazing.

Korea was part of Japan from 1910 to 1945. Perhaps Trump would like to give it back to them as well?

Another lesson for our truly tremendous president:

During his meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel last month, Trump insisted on to negotiating a trade deal between the U.S. and Germany, only to be shut down numerous times. ‘You can’t do a trade deal with Germany, only the EU,'” a senior German official told the Times of London.

“On the eleventh refusal, Trump finally got the message, ‘Oh, we’ll do a deal with Europe then,'” the official added.

Merkel explained to Trump that he must instead negotiate with the EU in its entirety after his administration’s efforts to reach out to the nations individually had been denied. Merkel also said to her own cabinet members that Trump only had “very basic misunderstandings” regarding the “fundamentals” of the EU and multinational trade agreements.

I suppose I would prefer he learn from Merkel as opposed to Xi.
