He came back from his
meeting with the president of Mexico still bragging that he was going to force
the poor man to pay for The Wall. But the truth is, he choked and didn't evenbring it up. That's Donald J. Trump to a T ... big-talking braggart, who, stripped of his trappings, ends up a dried prune.
Mere hours after his
historic election, Trump had decided that he wouldn't want to repeal all of Obamacare. "That was just
campaign talk." Just talk. That's what every male pussy in the history of
the universe has been good at.
Mere talk? Trump
said repeatedly, "I'm going to drain the swamp in Washington!" But
who's on his transition team? Swamp critters. Former federal bureaucrats,
think-tank academics, corporate lawyers and lobbyists. Plenty of lobbyists.
“This whole idea that he was an
outsider and going to destroy the political establishment and drain the swamp
were the lines of a con man, and guess what — he is being exposed as just
that,” said Peter Wehner, who served in the
administrations of Ronald Reagan and George Bush before becoming a speechwriter
for George W. Bush. “He is failing the first test, and he should be held
accountable for it.”
Trump is finding out just how woefully unprepared he is, just how much he does not know, and hence just how totally dependent on Washington insiders he is and therefore weak. Instead of challenging Republican legislative leaders, he'll be their bitch.
