Apologies to E. B. Browning

My cousin Alex once accused me of being interested solely in bashing Donald Trump.  Take a look at today's "press opportunity", Lexie, and tell me how we, as citizens concerned about the lives of our communities and country, can do otherwise.

What follows is my personal Trump Top Ten from today's cabinet meeting cum press opportunity.  With apologies to Elizabeth Barrett Browning, the outline attempts to answer the question How unsuited is he to be President?  Let me count the ways ...
  1. Jim Mattis didn't resign; I essentially fired him.
  2. I'm not happy with how Mattis handled Afghanistan.
  3. Russia was in Afghanistan because it was defending itself from terrorists.
  4. Obama gave Syria away.
  5. Syria is nothing but sand and death.
  6. The Kurds only fight well when we're along side them.
  7. The Kurds sell oil to Iran even after I asked them not to.
  8. The Saudis are fighting in Yemen because the Saudi / Yemeni border is so long.
  9. We need a wall at the Mexican border.
  10. The new version of NAFTA (USMCA) will pay for the wall.
