Trump Admits That He Is Not Doing His Job As President
Trump opened up his rally in North Carolina by telling the crowd that the President Of The United States has absolutely nothing to do.
Link to tweet
Trump said, And we have all night. Were going to have a lot of fun. I have nothing to do. Nothing.
The President Of The United States always has something to do. It doesnt matter if the president is old or young, Democratic or Republican, in their first or second term, the president always has something to do. The job is so relentless and grinding that it ages presidents by an average of ten years more than their biological age. Any president will say that time is their most precious resource.
Donald Trump is admitting that he doesnt value his time as president. Doing the job of running the country and leading the government means nothing to him, so he doesnt do it. The idea that a president can show up in North Carolina and feel no pressure on his time is unfathomable.
Trump feels this way because he isnt being president. He is using the presidency to make money for himself and his family, but there is very little governing going on.
The American people need a president, but Donald Trump isnt interested in the job.

Unbelievable.
Hadnt seen this, babylonsister. Maybe the news media could show this clip?
I wont get my hopes up. Theyve gotta help him incite violence toward our congressional representatives, by showing the send her back clip over and over.
Good catch.

Not sure about punctuation there, but you get the idea.
