For a professional insult artist with the attention span of a child, a delusion of superiority, an obsession with public image, and a famously short temper, governing will be an impossible task.
DT will need every friend he can get.
So, in these sensitive moments before the Donald J. Trump 2017 Inaugural Ball and Orgy presented by Cialis, it would make perfect sense for him to eviscerate the Central Intelligence Agency. NY Times: Trump, Mocking Claims That Russia Hacked Election, at Odds with G.O.P.
It apparently wasn't enough for DT to disparage the work of top U.S. military brass ("I know more about ISIS than the generals do.") and, as a result, the entire U.S. military, he just couldn't resist becoming the enemy of the men and women who act as the eyes and ears of Americans worldwide, charged with nothing less than protecting the lives of every single American.
Predictably, the former CIA officials who earnestly tried to explain why DT should never come close to the Oval Office are hopping mad. Ex-CIA Director Michael Hayden is quoted in the New York Times:
“To have the president-elect of the United States simply reject the fact-based narrative that the intelligence community puts together because it conflicts with his a priori (preconceived) assumptions — wow."
Former U.S. intel officer David Priess is quoted by Vice News:
It is “unprecedented that a President Elect would go against the intelligence community publicly.”
So, the man who claims he will bring Americans together will apparently try to do this by antagonizing respectable Americans of all colors, creeds and positions of authority.
Who was gullible enough to believe that a career bully/ liar/ con artist/ narcissist/ philanderer with thin, orange skin would grow up in time to even marginally handle the most fundamental aspects of the most important job in the world?
