Is it TACO Saturday? For Trump It Is

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

Is it just me, or did Trump actually say, time and time again, “Iran cannot have nuclear weapons?”

I don’t watch television “news” broadcasts. I refuse to be lied to. However, I do read. Trump appeared on Sean Hannity’s right-wing propaganda broadcast Thursday, and once again proved that the term “TACO” definitely applies to the orange buffoon. Trump talks all the time, but his words are always filled with lies and baseless allegations. Read the exchange between Trump and one of Fox’ paid liars.

Hannity asked Trump about the 970 pounds of enriched uranium possessed by Iran, which is necessary to make nuclear weapons.

[Trump first said that if the U.S. tried to seize the stockpile, it would take “a week and a half” to extract using a ground operation. That is likely an underestimate; nuclear experts say such an operation would take weeks, and that’s assuming it goes smoothly.]

But what Trump said next was a surprise.

“I don’t think it’s necessary [to get the uranium], except from a public relations standpoint,” the president said. “I think it’s important for the fake news that we get it.”

He added, “I’m the one that said we’re going to get it, and we’re going to get it. We have our eye on it.”

More gibberish and double talk from a man obviously afflicted with dementia.

“TRUMP ALWAYS CHICKENS OUT” IS ACCURATE AND REVEALS ONE MAN’S LACK OF PRINCIPLES AND MORALS

Like Trump, I graduated from high school in 1964. In July of that year, I turned 18 and was required to register for the draft. The war in Vietnam was beginning to grow.

I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do with my life. My family was poor. My brother and I were raised by a single mother. I did not have the money to attend a college or university, although my grades were very good. I came to a decision during that summer, and enlisted in the United States Air Force on September 11th. The recruiter I talked to promised that I would receive an education applicable to various forms of employment in the private sector when I completed my four years in service.

TACO Trump went a different way. His father paid a doctor residing in one of his New York apartments to create documents claiming that his son had “bone spurs” on his feet and should receive a deferment from the draft. This was the first recorded act of cowardice from your illegitimate president. Think about it: today’s Commander-in-Chief is a draft dodger. Only in America.

Without possessing character, personal integrity, or self-esteem, Trump has refused to ‘do the right thing’ for nearly 80 years. His only goal has been personal pleasure and gratification. Trump is not only the least qualified president in history, he is mentally and emotionally unfit for any public office.

TRUMP HAS NO IDEA WHAT HE IS DOING OR WHAT HE WILL DO NEXT

Trump’s basic intelligence has always been average or lower. However, as he approaches his 80th birthday on June 14, his actions and words reveal a man whose mental abilities are in rapid decline. He seldom speaks clearly, often rambling and changing subjects. His unilateral decision to wage war against Iran, without a plan, or a strategy for its end, proves that he makes poor and dangerous decisions consistently. Trump is totally unfit to remain the President of the United States.

If the Grand Old Party existed today, Trump would be removed from the White House with the use of the 25th Amendment. Unfortunately, the “Party of Lincoln” is nothing but a memory.
