For Rula and that "Trump has risen to the highest position in the country. Somehow. He can't be a total idiot. Even though he does appear to be one most of the time.", well, he's not the first US President to be an ignoramus.
Chump is a racist, sexist, proven fraud and liar, a thin-skinned braggart who switched sides when he saw that the Republicans had a void at the top of the party, and could be a useful vehicle for his personal ambition to be Emperor.
He wrote many years ago that it's poor people's fault they're poor, they're stupid, and his voters are, as they happily believe the endless lies that he tells them. He learned in the first campaign that he can spout any nonsense, but so long as he poses like a winner, and looks confident, that's what the adoring masses want.
As it happens it looks like his campaign boast that it would be easy to reduce grocery prices will haunt him for ages, and he's not bright enough to know that his famous posturing re Trade Tariffs actually costs American consumers MORE.
His support for Putin? Well, it looks quite likely that his previous visits to Moscow, when he wanted to expand the hotels empire, has resulted in some interesting film now in the Kremlin vaults. Why else can Putin now refer to him as "that useful idiot"? 'Agent Orange' will doubtless carry on blundering about, so far he's got Canadians fighting an all-out trade war, boycotting US goods and vacations, he's got most of the world boycotting Tesla cars, and apparently much of it will be buying planes and munitions from other sources too. Dems have got 3+ years to find a better candidate and run a better campaign.
