Seriously, the world is fucked if people are saying "leave it to the doddering dolt who barely reads, contradicts himself within a few minutes, and has zero understanding of the military, science or logic". There have to be competent people with relevant experience doing the analysis and making the decisions. Fuck, even Stephen Miller would be better than Trump.
