  2. The damage he is still wreaking on the country nearly 4 years after being kicked to the curb makes him the worst US President in history. He should be in a windowless concrete box near Florence Colorado with the SCOTUS Six in adjacent cells.

  3. I knew he called it in most of the time but the average 6 hours a day!

    And I bet many of those hours was watching Fox News and tweeting.

  4. I mean, does watching FOX count?

    Trump probably thinks so.

    Donald Trump does not have the mindset a leader, he has the mindset of a shitty boss. His job is not to fix problems but to demand things. The only metric for the success of his domain is his mood. He’s not responsible to make sure his subordinates are able to do their jobs; they are responsible to do his job. Productivity is optimal when he is occupied with something petty and inconsequential, or out of the office entirely.

  6. Look at his campaign. Dude wants to shoot him, knows if he hangs out by the golf course eventually Trump will come by.

  7. He didn’t even start his workday until the crack of noon, and that’s only if you consider golfing work!

  8. And Fox News repeatedly asked him in interviews how he got it all done, working so hard…

    Hell, one even said all his failed businesses were a testament to how great of a bitnezz man he was…

    And nearly half the country will be voting for this rapist, felon, grifting POS. What a great time to be alive 🙂

  10. He basically worked half days every day (I think his “executive time”, AKA TV time, was every morning until 11 and again starting at 4 PM). He also refused to read any sort of briefing given to him and went golfing constantly.

    Trump would argue that watching Fox News on television for seven hours a day was hard work. I know I can’t watch more than a few minutes without getting disgusted.

  12. *His government was constantly in chaos, with officials having no idea what he wanted them to do, and nobody was entirely clear who was actually in charge of what. He procrastinated wildly when asked to make difficult decisions, and would often end up relying on gut feeling, leaving even close allies in the dark about his plans… This meant that rather than carrying out the duties of state, they spent most of their time in-fighting and back-stabbing each other in an attempt to either win his approval or avoid his attention altogether, depending on what mood he was in that day.*

    *He was incredibly lazy. He wouldn’t get out of bed until after 11 a.m., and wouldn’t do much before lunch other than read what the newspapers had to say about him, the press cuttings being dutifully delivered to him.*

    *He was obsessed with the media and celebrity, and often seems to have viewed himself through that lens.*

    *In many of his personal habits he came across as strange or even childish—he would have regular naps during the day, he would bite his fingernails at the dinner table, and he had a remarkably sweet tooth that led him to eat “prodigious amounts of cake”…*

    *He was deeply insecure about his own lack of knowledge, preferring to either ignore information that contradicted his preconceptions, or to lash out at the expertise of others. He hated being laughed at, but enjoyed it when other people were the butt of the joke (he would perform mocking impressions of people he disliked). But he also craved the approval of those he disdained, and his mood would quickly improve if a newspaper wrote something complimentary about him.*

    …………………..

    The only things that give away that these quotes are about Hitler is that they mention newspapers and press cuttings.

  13. And somehow MAGA doesn’t care about his 2016 campaign promise he’d be too busy to golf. Of course this was a dig a Obama so they don’t really care if turned out not to be true, only having something to sling at the opposition in the moment matters. They think this is strength.

  14. That just shows how awesome he is! All of the many things he got done with putting in so few hours? It only shows how efficient he is! /s
