And You Thought It Was An Easy Job.


TOTUS rode into office on low voter turnout and immediately began his live streaming of lies, innuendo and poor governance. The worst elements of the Congress immediately latched onto his ineptitude and used that to conjure up their own “shadow” government based on purely party and self serving politics. It became apparent that TOTUS was under water as his work habits did not coincide with how the rest of the government and the wider world works. The job of President is 24-7 and consists of READING and Listening to experienced and experts in their respective fields, not on air pundits and opinionators. There is no substitute for first hand information especially when you have to interact with world leaders and the people whom you were elected to serve. There is no automatic input of knowledge, this job requires work and effort of the kind that brings different opinions not just opinions that you like. Accusations, wild rants and fights with world leaders, reporters is not a reasonable course of action for a leader which really tells more about your shortcomings and the inability to grow into the job. There is no light bulb type idea situation here just the ability to listen and understand what is being presented in order to make informed decisions. Any person with average intelligence (or even below) has the ability to understand this concept, yet it seems to have eluded you.

WASHINGTON – Former President George W. Bush released a video this weekend encouraging Americans to stand up to the coronavirus pandemic, and did not mention current President Donald Trump.

It doesn’t sound like that sat too well with Trump.

“He was nowhere to be found in speaking up against the greatest Hoax in American history!” Trump said during a series of Sunday tweets in which he otherwise echoed praise of his performance on the virus and other issues.

Trump’s criticism of Bush dealt with the latter’s silence during the impeachment investigation and trial. But he quoted a Fox News commentator who was talking about the coronavirus video that Bush made.

Pete Hegseth of Fox said he appreciated Bush’s video, but wondered why the former president didn’t urge people to put partisanship aside during the impeachment drama.

In his video, Bush praised health care workers and other Americans who are meeting a historic “shared threat.”

“In the final analysis, we are not partisan combatants,” Bush said. “We are human beings, equally vulnerable and equally wonderful in the sight of God. We rise or fall together, and we are determined to rise.”

A Message from President George W. Bush@TheCalltoUnite

Bush’s message of unity won widespread praise and drew comparisons to Trump.

“In the face of a crisis that requires leadership, empathy, and trust in science, Trump has come up short,” tweeted former federal prosecutor Renato Mariotti. “Bush’s video should remind Republicans that they can do better.”

Other critics noted that Trump wrote “bye the way,” when he meant to say “by the way.”

Trump and Bush have made no secret of their disdain for each other.

Bush said he did not appreciate Trump’s attacks on him, his brother, and his father during the 2016 Republican primaries, as the New York businessman defeated a field of opponents that included former Florida Gov. Jeb. Bush.

After Trump was sworn in as president, the Bush team let it be known that he found the new president’s inaugural address – including a reference to an “American carnage” – to be “some weird s—.”

Trump, meanwhile, claims his predecessors, plural, left him messes that created problems.

Asked recently if he planned to speak with living presidents about how to deal with the pandemic, Trump said no.

“So I don’t want to disturb them, bother them,” Trump said. “I don’t think I’m going to learn much. I guess you could say that there’s probably a natural inclination not to call.”
