In a discussion on Facebook this morning about Candidate Trump, an acquaintance suggested that Trump was better than Clinton, and disputing my assertion that Trump doesn't know what he was talking about, opined that Trump would "get up to speed pretty quickly".
No, Trump would not get up to speed at all, let alone pretty quickly, because he believes that he already knows all that he needs to know. He doesn't listen to his advisors now, why would he listen to anyone if he were elected? I imagine a "decider" on steroids. That's not a compliment.
Trump is paranoid, hyper-sensitive to slights and extremely defensive. When he is attacked he unleashes a flurry of tweets, few of them especially coherent, defending himself and attacking his attacker. He creates "facts" out of thin air to buttress his position and consistently accuses others of what he is on record of being guilty of.
His paranoia regarding his shrinking poll numbers shows just how far off the cracker his cheese his cheese has slipped. For months he reveled in all the free air time he received, playing the media for suckers as he called ego-stroking news conferences, he cited his good standing in the polls as if popularity somehow equaled competence. Until his poll numbers started slipping and the media began calling him on his bullshit. Of course, if he was now behind, the polls must be rigged, the election itself would be rigged and the media is colluding with Clinton. How many remember that when it looked like the Republican leadership and Ted Cruz might have an outside chance of denying him the nomination he speculated that the Republican nominating process was rigged against him?
This man is unstable.
