BuzzFeed reports:
National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster mocked President Trump’s intelligence at a private dinner with a powerful tech CEO, according to five sources with knowledge of the conversation.
Over a July dinner with Oracle CEO Safra Catz — who has been mentioned as a candidate for several potential administration jobs — McMaster bluntly trashed his boss, said the sources, four of whom told BuzzFeed News they heard about the exchange directly from Catz. The top national security official dismissed the president variously as an “idiot” and a “dope” with the intelligence of a “kindergartner,” the sources said.
A sixth source who was not familiar with the details of the dinner told BuzzFeed News that McMaster had made similarly derogatory comments about Trump’s intelligence to him in private, including that the president lacked the necessary brainpower to understand the matters before the National Security Council.
Both Oracle and the Trump administration heatedly denied the comments that Catz later recounted.

I'll take an idiot and a dope that understands the NAP over a magna cum laude graduate of Princeton that wants to take all of our stuff at the point of a gun. Heck, I'll take a box of rocks over the intellectuals that think they can run our lives. A box of rocks won't invade any foreign country or raise taxes.
ReplyDeleteI wish those were our choices.
DeleteAlong the same lines as your sentiments, I think that Obama was more dangerous than Trump in promoting statism. Obama was regarded as a deep intellectual thinker, not just by himself but also by his congregation. Accordingly, his ideas had a veneer of respectability. The fact that so many think Trump is an idiot will hopefully rub off on his statist ideas.
Good point.

DeleteThe problem is that the p...y grabber became the face of Capitalism and will remain so for at least a generation. Partisan hacks will misconstrue any liberty-expanding initiative or policy as an attack on poor people or minorities, inevitably; but the p...y grabber's character will lend greater credibility to their hysterical anti-capitalist arguments.
God help us from rule by the intellectuals.
