New York Times reporter, David Brooks, wrote today: "We are going to have to learn alot about stupidity over the next four years." He goes on to add ... " People who are incompetent do not have the skills to recognize their own incompetence."
How frustrating to deal with stupidity. It's such a waste of time.
We see the tarrifs in the news, then there's the cruelty with the FBI, well, look where we are today---
The U.S. will own the Gaza strip and make it into The Riviera of the Middle East.

"Against stupidity we are defenseless." This was what anti-Nazi German theogian, Derrick von Hoffen said in 1945. He was later executed by Hitler.

It's a sad state of affairs that stupid people have the confidence and no doubts in their mind. I doubt that he would complete his term as president. Protests and even some form of civil war might tgriw him out.

The thing is that he probably has no clue how badly he insulted people. First, that’s the “Holy Land” for a reason: various (and, sadly, warring) religions consider it HOLY. Will he call the Pope tomorrow and tell them he wants to buy Vatican City and turn it into an amusement park? No difference. Secondly, and nearly as importantly, the people who are in dispute over Gaza DO NOT have money as their god the way DJT does.
Ron White had the perfect line for this type of behavior: “You can’t fix stupid.”

You're right. Yes, I loved White's line.

@celticeagle — here’s a saying from me: you can’t spell idjit without DJT.

And your point is...? I think I've learned all I want to about stupidity. I don't want to know any more definitions, but if my Premier gets re-elected...

@wolfgirl569 ......You got that right. I hope there is a next election and we have at least one good person to take over for him. Get his mess cleaned up.

Same here. I was so sure she would win over him. He had help from Putin though I think. I'm sure there was fraud involved. And, many didn't get out and vote too.

@JudyEv .......He's lying to us about his health. He can't be that healthy with all the fast food he is said to eat.
