This article broke yesterday. This is where we are, Americans. This is our "leader."
Trump's phone calls with world leaders are said to be so unhinged that US officials think the president is 'delusional' and a national security threat
Just a little from the article:
- The Watergate reporter Carl Bernstein on Monday painted a scathing portrait of President Donald Trump's conduct on the world stage, particularly as it relates to his conversations with other leaders.
- Multiple sources described the US president as bullying and belittling allies while fawning over autocratic leaders.
- Sources said that Trump behaved in a "near-sadistic" fashion with female leaders; that he talked to Russian President Vladimir Putin as if they're "two guys in a steam bath"; and that Turkey's president "took him to the cleaners."
- Trump's behavior was said to be so unusual and erratic that it convinced several senior administration officials that the president was "delusional."
- In some cases, Bernstein's CNN report said, Trump's actions led White House officials to conclude that the president posed a national security threat.
Unreal. Unbelievable. Nearly. Yet this is where we are.
I say again, thanks, Republicans.
That's quite a guy you've got there. Quite the guy you've foisted on us all, on the nation.
And all just so you could have and keep power.
