Presidential Stupidity

I have to say, I was embarrassed for this country when Donald Trump was elected President.  Now I can say that I am truly horrified that people expect me to recognize such an ignoramus as Head of State.  I can't imagine how Pope Francis  felt meeting him.  The Saudis and Israelis both give him the some notion that he is actually liked, but goodness knows if they mean it in any sort of true fashion.  Trump's obvious delight in ceremony and photo ops is the easiest way to get on his good side.  Hey Mr. Trump, we have a good photo op over here, just stand there and smile.  Being blinded by the light of the flash, he doesn't actually notice flash is all there is to what he has accomplished this trip.  The truly embarrassing event happened after he returned home and decided he though pulling out of the Paris Environmental Accords was a good idea.  How is it that after the pollution from the 70's, pollution that many of those who voted for Trump dealt with, is so quickly forgotten?  Too bad I can actually claim knowing folks who thought it was a good idea to vote for him, which is even worse when you actually consider they have a college education (degree in History anyone) and still voted for him.  Hopefully he won't destroy our country any further.  Trump's America First logic is actually destroying what was our pre-eminent spot in the world order.
