Jeffrey Sachs confirms what we all know.......

[OGBuzz]

'This is a stupid man. This is not a man making detailed sophisticated calculations. From everything I know, and I don't know him personally but I know a lot of people who do know him personally, I do know a lot of people who interact with him, this is an old man, impetuous, impulsive, not knowledgeable, easily swayed, and unable to pay attention to briefings. Unable to study a problem. So in weighing things, I don't think we're actually seeing a rational calculator making difficult complex calculations. I think we are seeing an impulsive old man who is way out of his depths, surrounded by the least competent group that I have ever seen in American politics, and that's saying a lot.'

[Jim__]

1. And unfortunately, that incompetent old man is in charge of what is probably the most powerful ...

... military in the world. I hope we can somehow survive this insane period in history.

[malaise]

3. I have this feeling that since he knows he will soon croak

He really doesn’t give a flying fugg if if he obliterates everyone else

[lame54]

5. The joy of launching a nuke...

Check it off his bucket list

C'mon bucket. Beat him to it

[malaise]

9. Yes indeed

He is that depraved.

[peggysue2]

38. I don't dismiss that idea, Malaise. Not at all.

There's a deep darkness in Trump, a grievance that can never be assuaged. His mental and physical decline is obvious and despite all his chest thumping and bellicose rantings, he knows he's an old man, weaker than he ever was, decaying despite the makeup, the shoe lifts, the preposterous hair. He's also a man filled with anger, uncontrollable rage against anyone who doesn't do his bidding, against all those he believes are beneath him.

Which I think encompasses the entire human race.

No, he will not go quiet into that good night, not without trying to take everyone with him. It's the final, spectacular revenge.

God help us all!

[calimary]

40. As he finds his back pressed harder against the wall, I worry more.

[awesomerwb1]

2. Kakistocracy

[hay rick]

4. Stating the obvious.

The fact that we are used to it does not make it less of a crisis. The breathless media reporting of possible options and rationales for Trump's actions sustains an alternate, fictional version of reality in which reasonable debate precedes action in the white house. Trump's malevolent reign is an indictment of an American culture that allowed it to happen.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

25. Unfortunately, few 'Mericans don't comprehend the obvious.

[whathehell]

28. ...not just "Mericans"..A few of

every population on earth.

[Exp]

6. Under Murphy's Law, this admin will collapse under the weight of its own stupidity. nt

[calimary]

8. Can't happen soon enough!

Our survival depends on it.

[Joinfortmill]

13. Soon, would be good.

[vapor2]

31. The stupidity and incompetence grows by the hour

No one taking their job seriously.

[Easterncedar]

7. But there are people behind the curtains, I fear

Content to push the world to ruin for their own purposes, they installed the distracting clown show, no?

[OGBuzz]

10. The A.I. and humanoid robot "bros" who are racing to develop the means.....

with which to replace most of humanity.

[blm]

42. The Accelerationists

[wnylib]

33. Yes, the ugly pedo is only the public face of the fascist movement.

[some_of_us_are_sane]

37. And speaking of UGLY FACES....

the lunatic inherited his.

[ZDU]

11. Hear, hear!

[Joinfortmill]

12. Yup, we're in deep shit.

[punguin54]

14. Go bucket!

I hope the bucket wins. And soon!

[usonian]

15. Simple: (1) New Epstein revelations -- (2) Pull another deranged action from the Miller bag of evil.-- (3) GOTO (1)

Epstein evidence is like porn in many ways. (4)
It only increases over time.
I fully expect him to drop the big one, and it's still not over.

Unless he's stopped before he does it. (by peaceful means, hopefully)

(4) there are some hilarious analogies. Maybe on April 1sr.

[ColoringFool]

16. Yet Another "NS, S" Observation. But, Dear Mr. Sachs, It Is FAR MORE....

Than "an impulsive old man."

My mother was sharp as a tack and rational and a good Democrat at 91 years.

What she WASN'T, was a PSYCHOPATH.

THAT IS TRUMP'S DEFINING TRAIT, NOT OLD AGE OR KNOWLEDGE DEFICIENCY.

[Easterncedar]

18. Hear hear!!

[OGBuzz]

24. I don't think ageism was Sachs' intent but you are correct....

there are better descriptors for Trump. And none of them are kind.

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

17. Mentally lazy

[spanone]

19. Add that to EVIL.

[yardwork]

20. That's been obvious since before 2015.

[S/V Loner]

21. All of this...All of this...

disastrous situation rest on the shoulders of the republican party and everyone needs to remember that. None of this would be happening without their complete complicity.

[Upthevibe]

22. Kick. N/T

[Clouds Passing]

23. He's a criminal all the way through

[Chicagogrl1]

26. Source please

[OGBuzz]

27. starts at 2:30 of the video

[Chicagogrl1]

34. TYSM!

[Skittles]

29. to be fair, it's not like needed any more confirmation

I've known Trump is a fucking idiot since before he was installed into the White House

[ffr]

30. And yet, how many millions of people voted for a POS as the person that best represents them?

Literally a piece of sh*t, worst person in the world and that's what republicans selected as the best person who represents their values.

[calimary]

39. Well, what does THAT tell ya?

Besides nothing good?

[JustKay]

32. Spot on, but an imbecile like that doesn't make it the White House alone.

Trump has lots of wealthy puppeteers with their hands up his ass.

[Martin68]

35. Well.....duh.

[Beacool]

36. Everyone who has dealt with Trump knows that he's an imbecile and an evil man.

What Tillerson called him in his first term in office was succinct and accurate, Trump is a fucking moron.

[NNadir]

41. A nice succinct statement of the obvious.
