Spin this, Laura Ingraham, Kurt Schlichter, Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, Newt Gingrich, Conrad Black and Wayne Allen Root.According to the recent George Washington University Battleground Poll, there is a fair amount of concern among voters regarding Trump’s behavior, emphasis mine.The survey, taken August 13-17, found a large majority of voters — 71 percent — agreed his “behavior is not what I expect from a president” (27 percent disagreed), and 68 percent agreed his “words and actions could get us accidentally involved in an international conflict” (29 percent disagreed).Almost two-thirds (63 percent) of the registered voters polled said the country is on the wrong track, and a majority (56 percent) had an unfavorable view of President Trump(41 percent favorable). A similar number disapproved of the job he’s doing as president (55 percent), while 42 percent approved, and 56 percent also said he has not been effective as the president, while 39 percent said he has been effective.“The Battleground Poll data show that more Americans object to President Trump’s character than his agenda,” said GW Associate Professor of Political Management Michael Cornfield. “If there is anything approaching a consensus in today’s sharply divided America, it’s that Trump speaks and behaves inappropriately given the office he holds.”To be sure, Trump’s character is questionable, and it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that out. Before and during the campaign, and already during his brief stint in the Oval Office, he could never be confused with someone who is presidential. Yes, he’s the president, but his antics, attitudes, and words chip away at the decorum of the office.

One among many things you align with your detested Donald J. Trump is thinking that there ain't no climate change thing goin' on. This denial consequently will leave us maybe with our pants down as Harvey hits the Texas coast hard.
ReplyDeleteWhat’s more, it’s terrifying to think that Trump will be handling this crisis while he continues to deny the existence of human-caused climate change, which makes heavy rainfall events like this one more likely. “Climate change is definitely impacting the maximum intensity of rainfall,” Nielsen-Gammon told me, explaining how the warmer atmosphere is able to hold more moisture and therefore release more rainfall during storms. It’s clear Trump doesn’t accept this reality, or any concept of preparation for any climate change-fueled disaster. He recently rolled back flood standards that required new federal infrastructure be built with sea-level-rise in mind. He’s not exactly inspiring confidence that he knows how to prepare for natural disasters.
