Trump criticizing the Pentagon on Syria strategy just now:

"I think I'd make a good general, but who knows?"

Ooh ooh, I know! I know!! Pick me!

A couple days ago we found out that "no one knows as much about technology as me". I'm sure Musk and Gates call for advice all the time.

He's a jack ass of all trades.

On edit:
Now he claims to be "the most popular president ever elected by the republican party". "You see the same polls I do" he continued, while the ground at the Reagan tomb trembles as he spins like a roto-chicken.

1. Not making a comparison, but Hitler also thought he was an excellent general

And it's one of the reasons Germany lost WWII. He let his ego get in the way of his generals that were much smarter than him, and it cost them.

"no one knows as much about technology as me".

"I think I'd make a good general, but who knows?"

The one thing I worry about is that the Mueller Investigation has dropped out of the headline. I'm not sure of the fallout over Trump's stupid tweets. Do they take away the seriousness of Mueller's Investigation? Seems to me when his tweets are presented side by side with Mueller News it will negatively impact the "seriousness level" by voters.
Maybe my worrying is all me.....

He may be out of the headlines for the moment, but that does not diminish in any way the fact that he and his crew are digging, digging, digging every day to get the goods and finish their report. Then - like said stealth bomber - he will rise from the darkness and burst onto the scene with his bombs (charges) in hand to eviscerate the not-so-mighty Donnie Doturd and rid us of him forever.

There IS hope.
