Unfit To Lead

Donald Trump is having quite a day. His deflection isn’t quite up to par and so he’s actually making inculpatory statements about himself, when he thinks he’s effectively blaming it all on his favorite arch nemesis “fake news.” President Trump: "Mitch McConnell is a man that knows less about Russia and Russian influence than even Donald Trump, and I know nothing." https://t.co/QfjCf69waF pic.twitter.com/7ja15qwIZc — The Hill (@thehill) July 30, 2019 Here’s his comment about how the intelligence agencies have “run amok.” Vladimir must be curling his toes in delight, as he pours another vodka. Trump on Ratcliffe nomination: "We need somebody strong that can really rein it in because as I think you've all learned the intelligence agencies have run amok. They run amok." pic.twitter.com/qfs58oxVOj — Josh Marshall (@joshtpm) July 30, 2019 “Running amok” in this case is apparently defined as doing the jobs they were hired to do in protecting national security, and investigating the ties of Trump and other GOPers to Russia and Saudi Arabia. We’re going to be in a world of hurt with both Barr and Ratcliffe undermining democracy. This is not good.
