Well, what’s really new here? Zilch. Nothing. Nada.
Another day, another Donald Trump so called controversy.
For as much as he claims to dislike the mainstream media, the swamp and its creatures, and all that talk about draining the swamp, Donald Trump is perhaps one of the dumbest US president’s ever.
I’m usually not big on labeling people dumb or smart or whatever, because I feel like intelligence is something that can’t be quantified and that is very complex.
But with Donald Trump, I just don’t even know what category to put him on.
I have never ever seen an incumbent US president who is running for re-election, for as long as I’ve been following US politics, do so much to not get himself re-elected.
This latest ‘controversy’ about the Bob Woodward interview makes me seriously question Trump’s judgement, and by extension, his intellect.
Why in the hell would Donald Trump even consider, let alone agree, to an interview with a creature of the swamp like Mr. Woodward?
What was he thinking?
Now Mr. Woodward has dropped his ‘bombshell’ roughly two months before the election.
Whether the revelation that Trump knew about the ‘severity’ of the coronavirus way back in January/ February but decided to downplay it in public so as not to cause panic among people, will stick, remains to be seen.
After all, this is Donald Trump we are talking about here. He survived everything that was thrown at him 4 years ago. He has survived plenty since taking up the presidency.
Do his supporters and other people who might vote for him even care?
Those questions shall remain unanswered till November 3rd, 2020.
However, what amazes me is Trump’s ability to always shoot himself in the foot!
For a man who is always so keen to tout his IQ, even challenging others to take IQ tests so they could be compared to his to see who is smarter, to have the proclivity for making such unforced errors, leaves a lot to be desired!!
It’s being reported that some of his White House staff expressed reservations about him doing the interview with Bob but that he and his son in law, Jared Kushner, wanted to do it.
Makes you wonder if Jared Kushner is as smart as some say he is.
