Trump Keeps Getting Mad When He Finds Out What His Policies Actually Do

Wait wait wait. You mean to tell me, "grabbing em by the pussy" is not a legitimate strategy? I have you know I have a PhD from Trump University.

Pride. Grab em by their pride. So far so good.

Warm, action-oriented and driven by the desire to be loved and admired, have an air royalty. Love to be in the limelight, possibly make a career in the performing arts.

It absolutely is if there’s another step besides “grabbing em by the pussy” If you only have one step, you don’t have a strategy.

Step 1) get money. Checkmate

So the idiot thought the fullest extent of his job was "they'd throw an idea my way and I'd say yes or no. If no, they'll have to throw another idea my way" and literally nothing else beyond golf?

Trump: Damn libruls won't let me be a tyrant like Obama. Stupid checks and balances...EO fails. Trump: Damn librul courts and rule of law...Starts WWIII

Working just fine. Solid strat.

t's a really well written piece. They seem to be taking the stance that Trump has good intentions and is just an easily manipulated idiot though. I'm really not convinced the man has ever had good intentions for anyone but himself.

I think it’s also saying that his intentions were to fix everything easily and have everyone love him for it. For me, one of the most telling quotes was where Trump admitted that he thought there was going to be a piece of legislation waiting on his desk to be signed on day 1 and that everyone would love it. He’s a textbook example of the Dunning-Kruger effect.

Like the article states, everything Trump does is self-serving. All he cares about is looking good and being popular, but without the attention span or intelligence to actually understand the issues to do it. He initially found it was a lot easier to impress conservative voters than liberal ones, so he's stuck to that, since it worked on the campaign trail. Now, he wants to keep doing that; but again, with zero effort on his own behalf involved.

Living in the heads of others. Not having to do much.

Wrong, so wrong.
