I'm paraphrasing but General Milley said something along the lines that Trump has the intelligence/comprehension/maturity of a 5th/6th grader.

He was far too generous in that assessment.

A first grader could find the fault in his logic on tarrifs and handle being wrong about something with more maturity.

Well that's the thing... Trump isn't here to make America better, just himself as he sees it. Tariffs don't hurt him, so he doesn't care.

Oh I fully recognize that, it's more of a cathartic indictment of him.

He's such a hateful waste of conciseness and life.
