Trump's List Of Incompetent Decisions/Actions63

Incompetent is Trump's middle name and his picture should appear in the dictionary under definition of the word.

Here is a list of "some" of his incompetent actions.

1) Declaring a Trade War with China and ignoring history.
2) Failure to give China a "dignity" out when China was willing to sign a new trade agreement.
3) Closing the Government for 34 days without accomplishing anything.
4) Losing 63 cases (versus winning 4) in Federal Courts. Normal winning percentage of Presidents winning in Federal Courts is 70%.
5) Declaring a National Emergency in the border crisis and getting nothing accomplished.
6) Promising Infrastructure spending and delivering nothing.
7) Mexico not paying for wall.
8) Failure to hire and/or keep knowledgeable people for the administration.
9) Utter and consistent chaos in WH.
10) Disunity of country at all time highs.
11) Failure to work toward balancing the budget. All-time high debt.
12) Promising a new Health Care program and delivering nothing.
13) Not unifying the world but creating dislike of the U.S. with our allies and lack of interest to help.
14) Over 270 important administration positions left unfilled.
15) No consistent approach to anything, flip-flopping constantly.
16) Meeting with Putin without anyone around to note what was said.
17) Not supporting and therefore making our most important institutions (FBI, CIA, Justice Dept) weak.
18) Picking the wrong countries for the travel ban.
19) Working to weakening our Constitution (rather than strengthen it)
20) Making our disaster relief a joke (throwing paper rolls at Puerto Ricans)
21) Talking about a disaster and getting the name of the location wrong (Pleasure vs Paradise).
22) Lying all the time, even when not useful.
23) Asking about using Nuclear Weapons to combat hurricanes.
24) Allowing rain to prevent him from honoring dead soldiers.
25) Saying air quality has improved when the opposite is true.
26) Helping to cover or ignore a Saudi murder (kashoggi)
27) Trump tweets about the wisdom of Mussolini.
28) The "buck stops over there". Does not take responsibility for any of his decisions. Blames others.
29) Makes constant mistakes about quoting law.
30) Makes "gut" decisions.

I started writing this list thinking I would come up with 10-15 incompetent actions and ended up with 30 and I stopped because I did not want the list to "get TOO long".

Nonetheless, this list certainly shows how incompetent this president is. One incompetence can be impossible to overcome. Thirty incompetencies is a disaster.

And the best the right will rebuke your post is to assert that you have TDS while totally ignorant of the fact that our president is a moron and unfit for the office
 
which exact "philosophies" are you speaking of, because the chinese have had a myriad of different ones that rule its political systems over the course of its history.

I gave this yesterday, evidently you did not see it. It is what drives Chinese.

The Five Virtues of Confucius

Confucius believed that a good government was the basis for a peaceful and happy society. And the basis for a good government was good officials. In order to become a “good official” a person had to master the following Five Virtues:

li
Li for ritual etiquette, manners, gravity

"Men's natures are alike, it is their habits that carry them far apart."

renRen stands for Kindness to the fellow man

“Forget injuries, never forget kindnesses."

xin Xin stands for truthfulness, faithfulness and sincerity

“The superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions”

yi Yi for righteousness or honesty, generosity of soul

“When we see men of a contrary character, we should turn inwards and examine ourselves”

xiaoXiao for filial piety, for strong family values

“The strength of a nation derives from the integrity of the home”

Have you yet noticed that Trump has NONE of these qualities?
 
Sure. He said that.

But that doesn't mean they have ever been "willing to sign a deal", as the OP said.

Why are you bothering me with irrelevant stuff?

If it’s irrelevant then don’t answer, simple enough.
 
Discussing anything with Liberals is like herding 5 year olds at a daycare. I do love how they do the same things over and over expecting a different result.

This country purged itself from all Democrat rule in 2014 and 2016 because we all got tired of the Liberal adolescence. Did Liberals learn anything? Nope. They were given a chance to make a comeback in 2018 and what have the accomplished? Nothing. And they are lead around by the nose by a drunkin old hag who couldn't find a cohesive sentence with a flashlight and two hands. Not to mention they brought on 4 antisemitic idiots who now have support numbers around 7%.

The only reason they continue the Trump hate agenda is to deflect everyone's thoughts away from their own candidates who are pushing for tax payer funded free healthcare for Illegals, Decriminalization of Illegals, shutting down DHS and ICE, 3rd trimester abortions, sanctuary cities, and free college.

If you want to know what America would look like under Democratic rule you need look no farther than LA, San Diego, or Washington State. Here is the real list of what America would look like under Democratic rule and this isn't opinion. It's all happening right now.

1. 60,000 homeless living in tents in the city,
2. Human feces all over the sidewalks,
3. Over run with rats carrying typhoid,
4. The elimination of the middle class,
5. Bankrupted cities,
6' Medical facilities over run with Illegals,
7. Water shortages,
8. New laws just passed restraining law enforcement from approaching or removing any homeless person,
9. New laws just passed making it legal to live in tents on the streets of the city
10. New laws just passed making it legal to posses cocaine, heroin, or meth under 3 grams,
11. New laws just passed giving free healthcare to Illegals
12. Overpopulation
13. More than half of the nations sanctuary cities
14. Almost half of the nations homeless in just two states
15. Withholding information from federal law enforcement to hinder any arrest of Illegals
16. Warning Illegals of pending raids
17. Out of control housing cost markets
18. Out of control apartment cost
19. Coastal waters so contaminated you can't swim in them right after a rain washing all the human feces into the sea
20. Government so corrupt you get people like Pelosi, Waters, Feinstein, and Harris,
21. Open border policies
22. Public school financial struggles so bad teachers are either leaving or going on strike
23. A political class the believes the people of California exist for the state government, not the other way around
24. A state who's state budget has increased 35% since Schwarzenegger was governor to take care of the political elite
25. Massive budget cuts for public schools, universities, state parks, beaches and their health care system
26. California loses an estimated $8 billion every year in commercial property tax revenues because of the passing of Proposition 13

This is what a Democratic run state for decades looks like and the reason why people are leaving this state in masses. And this is what they want for America?

No Sale.

Oh...speaking of Washington State...this is from 2017.

Two King County Superior Court judges are asking for help cleaning up the courthouse at Third Avenue and James Street after they say two jurors and half a dozen employees have been assaulted.

The judges, Laura Inveen and Jim Rogers, acknowledged Tuesday that there are difficult underlying circumstances contributing to the unsanitary and potentially frightening atmosphere around the courthouse.

They — along with King County Sheriff John Urquhart — also recognized that there are two elements at play: crime and the fear of crime, with the latter being just as likely to keep people away as the former.

The nearby blocks host most of the city’s homeless-shelter beds and many of its social-service outlets, which draw those who need help and the people who prey on them. That’s nothing new, Rogers said.

Some committee members expressed concern about addressing the symptoms of the area’s problems without getting to the cause. Councilmember Larry Gossett said he didn’t like the idea of power-washing the sidewalks because it brought back images of the use of hoses against civil-rights activists.

Judges complain it’s unsafe, unsanitary outside King County Courthouse in Seattle | The Seattle Times

Liberal (il)logic at it's finest.
 
looks like it is working well to me. what is Your oh so perfect way to deal with that?

yeah lets see a tactic that gets China to stop abusing its worldwide trade practices.. oh I bet your going to make a deal with them right? LOL i'd like to see any deal that actually gets them to stop abusing the power they have attained that they will accept... as if THAT is going to stop an authoritarian power from doing ANYTHING.

The tariffs will not stop China. Farmers are losing their markets causing great stress in the community there have been suicides. sustained losses
 
Okay.

You are dismissed.

I see that you did not address my last post where I proved (with your link) how incompetent Trump is.

No response = no answer.

You can't defend the indefensible!

This is why you are a total joke. You are here everyday and all day, you immediately are one of the first to answer posts negative to Trump, you never agree with anything that is negative to him even if incrontravertible proof is given, you agree you defend the man even though you personally acknowledge you do not know what he says or means, and when faced with an impossible situation you say "you are dismissed".

You are the laughingstock of the debate board.

clown.webp

Seems farmers are getting new markets, too.

Maybe they shouldn't get all stressed out.

oh i see, so ALL Chinese follow the edicts of confucius.. just like all Christians are just like jesus right? kind patient and tolerant, right?

LOL so THAT is why China as run by the Chinese communists is such a homogeneous, abusive of Human rights, absent workers rights ****hole.

The only one whose opinion counts in China is Xi. It is what he believes that needs to be addressed.

and by the way, who said anything about it being right or wrong? You can be totally against what they believe but still find yourself in a s***hole and losing money (like we are doing) and not solving the problem.

The OP was all about Trump incompetence and I have proven that unequivocally. We are hurting and will continue to hurt even more until he (or the next President) finds a way to make a deal with China. It is as simple as that, no matter how much you cuss them.

When I was a kid I was bullied and in my last year of high school I was beaten up 35 times. It was not until I joined the Air Force and was trained how to defend myself that the bullies stopped being a problem. Solutions is what is needed, complaints about injustice are useless.

solutions absolutely are what is needed, but some aren't willing as yet to accept that the solution may be a bit painful, yet necessary. you HAVE a politician trying to give you a solution, the first one in dozens of years. You do not want to accept that because of who he is.
 
What part of "Yet another blah, blah, blah thread of nonsense anti-Trump talking points." do you not understand.

Sorry I ruffled your feathers. It was my fault for replying.

Trying is admirable but failure because of incompetence is inexcusable. You want to give him kudos for trying? Go ahead. I am not, simply because he has no knowledge, experience, or even common sense and that is a recipe for guaranteed failure.

Here is a list of extremely successful companies that failed due to incompetent management. This list includes Toys-R-Us and Blockbuster.

The objective to be gained can be noteworthy but if the person doing the attempt is incompetent, it will fail.

One example specific to Trump. Casinos are generally good investments where profits are easy to achieve:

The science behind casino profits. Gambling is good business, or at least a profitable one. According to the American Gaming Association, in 2012 the 464 commercial casinos in the U.S. served 76.1 million patrons and grossed $37.34 billion. ... Gambling is not just common, it's also accepted.

Trump bankrupted 3 of them.

How much more incompetent can a person be to fail 3 times with Casinos?
 
4. Closing the Government for 34 days without accomplishing anything.

He was mad that Pelosi wouldn't give him the Congressional funds to cage even more kids.
 
Yes, # 2 is a lie told by Trump. He said China called at the G7 summit and wanted to make a deal.

No no no. Trump isn't telling lies, he's playing 10 dimensional chess. Obama is the one who always told lies. Just ask Trump's base.
 
He is not 'my' Prime Minister, and nor was he elected by the people of Britain. The only people who elected him into office were the 180,000 or so Conservative party members. Weren't we lucky.

Oh, really?

Who is YOUR Prime Minister? What powers does he/she wield?

How's that tether to the real world?

Yes, really. Johnson is un-elected, as was Theresa May before him. Nobody but the Conservative party voted for him so he doesn't represent the people, or me. Got anything to add?
 
That's an incorrect and incredibly ill-informed statement. Clapper held important intelligence positions under both republican and democrat administrations and was confirmed in the senate unanimously.

He was Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency under Bush Sr.

He was Director of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence during the GWB's administration.

Either you are lying or you are just saying things while having absolutely no knowledge about it. Which one is it?

What I am doing is accepting his own words.

He lied to Congress on March 12, 2013 when he said that millions of Americans were not being surveilled.

In 2017, he lied to the American People on Meet the Press when he said that there was no wire tapping conducted in Trump Tower and that if there was he would be in a position to know.

The guy has determined that Obama is good and Trump is bad and that it is his sacred duty to treasonously oppose the POTUS.

The guy defines the phrase "party loyalist lap dog" by his lies and deceitful, borderline traitorous, actions.

He should at least be in jail. Comey, Clapper and Brennan are all criminals who need to be prosecuted and have their names added to the rolls of the Watergate crooks.

James Clapper avoids charges for 'clearly erroneous' surveillance testimony

So no evidence that he's a party lap dog. Thanks for clarifying.
 
That's exactly how they feel about Trump. They have ample precedent to inform them.

So the best solution is to put it in writing...with enforcement provisions to hold both sides to the agreement. And that's what they had and that's what the Chinese walked away from while saying, "You should just trust us."
 
Yet another blah, blah, blah thread of nonsense anti-Trump talking points.

Heck, #2 is obvious spin based on a lie. China has NEVER been willing to sign a trade deal with Trump.

Refute it point by point then.

The Trumpster “see no evil” act is getting moth eaten!
