First Read: Yes, its chaos and controversy, which weve constantly chronicled here. But its also a matter of competency. According to this months NBC/WSJ poll, a majority of Americans 56% said that Trumps administration isnt competent, including 39% who said it isnt competent at all. By contrast, 43% said it was competent, including 16% who said very competent.'
To put those numbers into perspective, 50% of American said Barack Obamas administration was competent in June 2014 (so after the Obamacare website crash during his second term), and 53% said George W. Bushs administration was competent in March 2006 (after Hurricane Katrina).
So for all the potential dangers to Trumps presidency the Russia investigation, historically low approval ratings, Democrats possibly winning the House (and Senate) in November the biggest could very well be the competency question
Thats a big problem.

(5,914 posts)If the CEO of your company behaved even once on national TV the way that Trump does on a daily basis, it would not even be 24 hours before the Board of Directors held an emergency meeting and fired his ass. He wouldn't even be given the opportunity to resign. Security would throw him out on the street, and he might get his personal belongings mailed to him six weeks later.
I always get dead silence when I say that, because they know I'm absolutely right.

(5,529 posts)No joke. That might be his biggest problem. He tells terrible lies that are easy to disprove and does not keep his story consistent.
That is the main reason his legal team is trying like mad to keep him out from under oath.
