all the time.
Yup, he's undisciplined.
Yup, he shoots from the hip.
Yup, he rambles.
Yup, when he's attacked he counterattackes. Even if it just some fat slob, porno pig mess universe.
And...?
OK, it's galling, it's frustrating, it makes me nuts, too.
But i imagine washington, jefferson (he's a UVa guy for goodness sake) and lincoln had their negative idiosyncrasies also.
I was telling someone recently that often, it's the negatives that make the positive. Look at the weakling paul ryan in his debate with the idiot joe biden. Ryan sat like a whipped puppy, absorbing all the jabs, interruptions and insults that the idiot biden dished out.
He was disciplined.
He was calm.
He did not resort to similar childish behavior.
He did not retaliate.
He was disciplined.
He got sand kicked in his face by someone dumb enough to be in the congressional black caucus.
Trump would not have taken it. He may have gone too far the other way. Dunno. But he's nobody's whipping boy.
We have to take him as he is. We cannot say to give us this part of trump but not that part. We like the way you do this but stop doing that.
He is a package, as all of us are. Flaws and all.
It is often our flaws that make us great.
