Current Events > Trump is a profoundly weak leader.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I don't blame him for every bad thing going on right now. I think he's a major contributor, but all the same, we've had leaders in the midst of crises that can address the public with reassurances. Trump is hiding in a bunker and tweeting and seems to prioritize that more than than the three national crises occurring at the moment.

America is destitute, on fire, and sick. That is not making america great again. If he could at least just say something comforting or carefully worded - act like a leader - it could help deescalate, but nope, tweeter in chief. Fucking disaster lmao

I wasn't sure I was going to vote this year because I became very apathetic. Biden is not appealing. But I'd take the funny old gaffe man a million times before this fucking trainwreck. Now I'm just mad

Imagine his old ass hiding in a bunker tweeting to troll. I can't believe his kids still stand up for him. I'd say openly my dad's fucked up in certain areas.

Realistically his kids probably all hate him

Gotta stick with him for that $$$ though

---

Yeah cause they ain't got what it takes to make $$$ on their own. They need to rely on daddy.

Honestly, is there anything in this world he could say where his haters wouldnt just rip his words apart and twist the meaning.

Youre whole post is just blaming trump and trash talking him.

what on earth could he do or say to change people who already have such a strong bias against him


---

There is nothing Trump can say right now that won't make things worse (for him)

Ignoring this until people get bored and move on is the smart political move for his administration

In fact if you noticed, this is how he has survived every scandal over the past 3.6 years. Notice everythin people were furiously mad at him about is no longer talked about?

---

i made a topic yesterday about this

he really is the softest bitch

the time when we really need the president to be presidential-pandemic, nationwide social unrest- and he cant peek out of his hiding hole for a minute to do so.


---

I'm not sure what you were expecting from someone who's gone on the record for wanting police to be rougher with folks.

---

Trump is a dumb person's idea of a smart person, a poor person's idea of a rich person, and a weak person's idea of a strong person.

---

I think the most telling part about him raging this morning is how unbelievably and uncharacteristically quiet he was last night during all of this and then wakes up and starts spewing rhetoric completely ignoring it all.

Like holy fuck.

This is the perfect example of why everyone thinks Trump and his supporters are soft and weak

---

He's too scared to come out incase something happens to him. LMAO. Poke the bear enough and now he's throwing his security in front.

What Trump could do:

• Stop blaming everyone else for his own mistakes
• Start accepting responsibility for his own mistakes
• Stop ignoring advice from experts in relevant fields just to go on your own hunches
• Stop spreading stupid ass conspiracy theories
• Stop firing people just because they don't kiss his ass
• Stop incessantly congratulating himself
• Stop funneling tax payer money into his own pocket
• Stop disrespecting military members whenever he sees fit to do so

Just to name a few.

And which one of those was as universally hated as trump?

If he doesnt talk then hes soft and weak, if he does talk then people will just say he said the wrong thing. Why even take the chance.

Trump says and does stupid shit on an almost daily basis, though, so he brings that on himself.

dude, hes the president of a nation. how fucking cowardly to not publicly address the people

---

Almost like there are consequences and ramifications of past patterns of conduct or something.

---

Maybe if he took the time to actually formulate the right thing to say people might actually listen to him or realize that he's trying.

But he hasn't even sort of done that and has instead woken up and starting the same shit he does every day completely ignoring what happened and not giving any sort of words on what the plan is or anything.

EDIT: This was @gatorsPENSbucs

---

And this is all exactly my point.

When you say stuff like that its basically saying Im never changing my mind no matter what so why bother even trying when people are already set in their ways.

And all of this would hurt his base while not winnin anyone over

Trump is thinking about his relection prospects (He talks about it constantly)

Going out and talking liberal talkin points will just empower Biden, not him

So instead he'll push nonsense twitter conspriacies that his base eat up and demonize mail in ballots to put out feelers for how unfair it is that the dems cheated if he loses

No, when I say stuff like that, I'm basically saying he repeatedly says and does stupid shit. I'm commenting on a well documented pattern of Trump saying and doing stupid things.

Debatable.
It entirely depends on what he says.
The fact he's not saying anything (except continuing the trolling on Twitter) already speaks volumes about the Orange.

---

Trump has failed even by his own measures, but there will always be those who still think that this is winning

I take back every criticism of Hillary's "Basket of deplorables" speech. She was right on the money.

This. All other past presidents would have addressed the nation. The country is slowly falling apart.
