Discussion: Trump Says He Thought Presidency 'Would Be Easier'

Now THAT would make for an interesting made-for-TV movie!

I suppose I always naively thought the SS was inviolable, they were sworn to take a bullet and so on. Lately though, it seems they’ve been caught with their pants down (sometimes literally) or sleeping on the job. If anybody had juicy gossip to leak, it would be those guys.

Guys like Prince make me nervous, though. I don’t want them anywhere near the reins of power.

It’s the President’s cocoon. Woven of thread so fine it appears as if it is not there, at all. His daughter employs a sweatshop in China specifically to make this garment.

So, Mr. President, this job is harder than you thought. Are you ready to throw in the towel and resign?

I’ve got the impression that there’s a little bit of internal prioritization; up until NotTooBrightOrange guarding the president has been an elite assignment inside the Service. The problem is that whenever there’s a problem you can count on Schiller to cover the lucrative part of his butt-even with an eye to when he’s no longer a Fed. The result is a division/confusion of mission that is an assassin’s dream.

“As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.” — H. L. Mencken

“It probably would be easier if he wasn’t such a fucking moron.”

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a winner! :joy_cat:

“But this was a colossal failure of common fucking sense on the part of a huge swathe of the electorate.”

YES! In the final analysis, this is exactly what happened.

He thought he could just point, and say “Do That!” and it would get done.

He thought he was being appointed Emperor, not President.

He was wrong.

Funny, my friend said the exact same thing today.
There must be some kind of global rhizome root that feeds these guys.

Many hugely big bannered Trumpsters have gone quiet, but are merely lying in wait ;-). The gun clubs (2 ranges nearby) usually go quiet most of the year, but lately are 24/7/365. Hmmm. The revolution is near.

Hell, no. Some of those others voted Green or Libertarian. They are not to be forgiven.

He didn’t say he works more, just that the job is more work

“This is more work than in my previous life. I thought it would be easier.”

You know, I have always thought that the easiest way to see how hard being president is is to look at each president when they take office and then four years later when they run again. They all look a lot more tired and noticeably older. Without knowing anything else at all, that should tell you how stressful of a job it is, considering that it comes with financial security and a lot of respect and prestige. I know Trump is an incurious dolt but this kind of takes the cake.

Here you go Donald. Instead of a noun, just turn “president” into a verb. (Sung to the tune of “It’s so easy”.)

It’s not easy to president.
It’s not easy to president.
People tell me I’m a fool
So here I go breaking all the rules

Well it’s not easy
it’s not easy,
it’s not easy,
Oh well, well it’s not easy,
it’s not easy,
It’s not easy,
Oh well, well it’s not easy,
it’s not easy,
it’s not easy,
Oh-oh, where I’m concerned, I just got burned.

It’s not easy to president,
It’s not easy to president.

Looked into my heart I see
Mean old press telling lies of me.

Repeat chorus…

Me neither and I don’t really see why anyone does. His core base of voters are welcome to follow Trump right to hell.
