Ronald Reagan Jr.'s Rant on Trump Being 'Unfit For Office' is Absolutely Perfect



In general, I love genuine reactions and comments from people — especially in politics. Even if I disagree with someone on something, if they’re being genuine, then at least I feel that they’re being honest with me. Unfortunately, in today’s world where many people seem out to tell people what they want to hear as part of their agenda, rarely do we get a lot of truly genuine reactions in the media.

That’s why I appreciated what Ronald Reagan Jr. had to say about Trump. He didn’t seize on the on-going debate many have engaged in concerning whether or not Trump’s psychologically unfit to be “president,” he simply expressed his disgust about the type of person Trump is and how, based on his character, behavior, and incompetence alone he had no business holding that office.

“I have been saying since he was nominated, perhaps even before, that this is a man who is unfit for office,” Reagan Jr. said. “This is not a psychological diagnosis. I’m not particularly interested in what pathologies he may or may not have. It’s a question of character, it’s a question of personality.”

“His behavior is erratic, it’s impulsive,” he added. “He doesn’t seem to be really familiar with issues. He attacks people lower than him on the food chain, punching down. He has behaved in a way that I would describe as treasonous regarding the Russia investigation and he may be guilty of criminal activity.”

trump also attacks people higher up the food chain, too.. trump is jealous of anything that moves. he's his own worst enemy.. he sabotages himself.

Thank you for Ron Reagan Jr, TT!

Bottom line as he says is.. "trump is unfit for office".

I agree. With Trump, it's not a mental illness issue.
Most mentally ill people aren't rotten to the core.
He's just an awful person. His problem is he's immoral and amoral- he lacks a decent character.
