To become president of the USA you have to be rich and clever. Mr Trump is obviously the former and, arguably, the latter. So what on earth possessed him, allegedly, to repost some far right stuff on Twitter? My advice, although I doubt he reads my blog (that would be something!) would be to check sources carefully before tweeting and consider whether the tweet sent is worthy of being sent or not. Maybe he employs people to check what others say about him? Silly me, bad things said are just "fake news" of course.

In this case I agree with the UK Prime Minister - Trump was WRONG to retweet these far-right videos. Doing so make him seem stupid, in my eyes. Others are quite entitled to think him wonderful.

I have reached my personal conclusions, although in a free world others are fully entitled to have theirs, even if radically different from mine.
Yes, he is stupid. George W. Bush was one of the dumbest presidents in history, Trump makes him look like Einstein! And no, nobody checks what he posts on twitter, and this creates job security for the people who explain to the press what "he really meant"
ReplyDeleteIt's a sad state of affairs.
