Trump Is So Psycho That He Is Using Presidential Signing Statements To Brag About His Wealth

By Jason Easley on Wed, Aug 2nd, 2017 at 2:58 pm

Donald Trump used a presidential signing statement on the Russia sanctions legislation to whine at Congress for not repealing Obamacare and to brag about his personal wealth.

Here is the closer of Trump’s signing statement which he attached to the Russia sanctions bill that he signed:

Still, the bill remains seriously flawed particularly because it encroaches on the executive branchs authority to negotiate. Congress could not even negotiate a healthcare bill after seven years of talking. By limiting the Executives flexibility, this bill makes it harder for the United States to strike good deals for the American people, and will drive China, Russia, and North Korea much closer together. The Framers of our Constitution put foreign affairs in the hands of the President. This bill will prove the wisdom of that choice.

Yet despite its problems, I am signing this bill for the sake of national unity. It represents the will of the American people to see Russia take steps to improve relations with the United States. We hope there will be cooperation between our two countries on major global issues so that these sanctions will no longer be necessary.

Further, the bill sends a clear message to Iran and North Korea that the American people will not tolerate their dangerous and destabilizing behavior. America will continue to work closely with our friends and allies to check those countries malignant activities.

I built a truly great company worth many billions of dollars. That is a big part of the reason I was elected. As President, I can make far better deals with foreign countries than Congress.

The battle between the Executive and Legislative branches of our government over control of foreign policy is nothing new, but Trump apparently thinks that part of a “good deal” for the United States involves removing sanctions on Russia. The real reason why Trump is signing the bill isn’t national unity. It is that the country is already unified in favor of the sanctions. If Trump vetoed the bill, his veto would be overridden.

Republicans are going to admit at some point that Trump is not well. Only a crazy person would brag about their wealth in a presidential signing statement. Trump thinks that he won the election because he is rich when the real reason why Trump won is the same Russia scandal that is causing his nearly daily mental meltdowns.

This signing statement is an example of why the vast majority of Americans are embarrassed to have Trump as president.

Can anyone honestly say that they didn't know he was a puffed-up moron before they voted for him?

Maybe that's what they wanted.

Drain that swamp, and look at the reaction from the left.

That's what everyone got, wanted or otherwise...

He is the least moral and most corrupt person ever elected as POTUS (thanks to Putin). Everyone who listened to him and then voted for him knew how evil he is ...

"DRAIN THE SWAMP!!!" - this is a President who can't even get Obamacare repealed with majorities in both the Senate and the House!

Now the Pentagon and the Coast Guard have publically refused to comply with the Commander-and-Chief's tweet about removing "transgenders" from the military!

Few people are actually evil in the sense of wanting to do evil. Trump quite possibly believes he is a good person. He's just weak and self-indulgent.

I doubt if he wants to hurt anyone, unless he believes that they wronged him, or he believes that it would benefit him in some way if he hurt them.

It's a concern. Trump's attempt to govern by tweet is foolish and dangerous. No less so is the Pentagon's decision to ignore his direction.

Granted, it was all they could reasonably do, but it's a bad precedent. (pun intended)

Trump is definitive proof that the American economy rewards people for being stupid, entitled, and awful.

I see no reason to believe that Trump is anything but amoral, and at times, he is downright vindictive.

I doubt if he wants to hurt anyone, unless he believes that they wronged him, or he believes that it would benefit him in some way if he hurt them.

I am certain he wants to hurt people, including his enemies real, imagined, and contrived. He forms unjustifiable grudges, and then holds them forever. He is malignant and malicious.
