In an interview posted on Monday, Corey Lewandowski, the former campaign manager for President Donald Trump, defended the President’s first month on office and blamed mishaps on his staff.
“The staff has probably not prepared him as well as they could have or should have as it related to some of those executive orders and the implementation and what that would mean,” Lewandowski said on David Axelrod’s podcast after arguing that Trump has begun fulfilling his campaign promises.
“I think you have a president who wants to move very quickly, who has a grand vision of what he wants to accomplish and is leaving the details to the staff to implement,” Lewandowski added.
He noted that many of Trump’s senior staff in the White House have not worked in government before and predicted that the Trump administration will take a more “measured” approach going forward.
Oh, please: they didn’t prepare him?
He needed to come in with some basic knowledge, of which he had none.
He needed to focus on the task at hand, which has been clearly demonstrated he was incapable of doing.
How was anyone supposed to do anything with a guy who refused to attend briefings and has actually been caught tweeting during a live security briefing because of his daughter’s clothing line?
There is an old expression that I have seen slightly modified over the years:
You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink. However, you can hold the horse’s head under the water and he will either drown or drink.
DT’s staff has chosen the former.
And who chose those failing and incompetent staffers? I’d say the fish is rotting from the head downwards.
how do you prep someone with the attention span of a midge and the intellectual depth of a shallow basin of wter that the horse just drank it’s fill from?
Other than some felicitous combination of medications, I don’t see how he could be prepared or by whom.
Donald’s lack of focus…
