(63,221 posts)He's so damned clueless. He has no situational awareness or any sense of how anything is perceived outside his own little personal bubble of a a world. He doesn't not live in the same world as the rest of us.

(9,874 posts)And after he stupidly skipped the ceremony in France, did the same staff fail to warn him not to go to Arlington on Veteran's Day?
Does he know he is President of the United States or does someone have to tell him that each day?

(56,829 posts)He was upset they didn't have a tent there because he was worried about his hair in the rain, even though he was told it was a mistake to skip the ceremony by everybody with him.
I'll see if I can find the article

(53,871 posts)Why would he have to be advised that he should go to pay tribute to fallen Americans after traveling all the way across the ocean to do exactly that, whether it's raining or not?
And it reflects on his judgment if he hired someone stupid enough not to tell him he should go.
I heard someone on CNN say he just didn't want to go, wanted to stay in the hotel, eat hamburgers and tweet all day.
That sounds about right.
And he didn't bother to go to Arlington once he go back also.
Think I'll look up "fat, lazy fuck" on google and see what turns up.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if tRump ignoring his advice--and looking bad for doing it--gets Bolton fired?

(27,832 posts)Here he is uniquely positioned to do this, 100 years after the Armistice was signed, and yet he chose not to do it. I'd leap at the chance. It must have been incredibly moving.
It boggles my mind how little enjoyment he's able to extract from anything that doesn't involve his "winning" and other people losing.

(10,839 posts)asshole. He was irked and didn't feel like going. Instead he trash-tweeted Macron, gave Theresa May a spiteful earful and then like a petulant child holed up in the Ambassador's residence for 'Executive Time,' meaning he watched TV, called his friends and pigged out. Probably had a Putin tete-a-tete as well.
So far? He's blamed the rain, the Secret Service and now irresponsible courtiers. Because his Mommy wasn't there to tell him what to do.
The man is still the vindictive oaf he's always been.
