Trump is Bad

George Thorogood has a song “Bad to the Bone.” It’s an expression that connotes that the person is tough or rebellious in an edgy way. Donald Trump is not that. Some people refer to another person who is good at something as “bad ass.” Nope, not Donald Trump either.

Trump is just bad, i.e. not good. He’s bad at business, bad at human relations, bad at empathy, bad at diplomacy, bad at governing, bad at dealing with difficult situation, well, bad at everything. Some people even say he smells bad, but I won’t go into that.

In the past, I blogged about how he is insane and how he is unpopular. So, with the election drawing near, I thought it might be a good time to remind people about just how bad he is so they have an easy reference when making such an important decision in November.

Trump is bad at business. To call him a businessman almost seems like a lie. He has filed for bankruptcy six times (including three casinos!):

1. 1991: Trump’s Taj Mahal
2. 1992: First of two Atlantic City casinos owned by Donald Trump.
3. 1992: Second of two Atlantic City casinos owned by Donald Trump.
4. 1992:  Trump’s Plaza Hotel in New York City
5. 2004:  Trump’s Hotels and Casinos Resorts
6. 2009:  Trump’s Entertainment Resorts

 Trump is bad at telling the truth. The Washington Post claims he had over 30,000 lies during his time in office.

Trump is bad for the environment.

Trump is bad at upholding the law.

Laws Trump is suspected to have violated

Trump is bad with governing and diplomacy.

 

Trump is bad with disasters, such as COVID

Trump is bad even according to those who worked for him.

Trump is bad with approval ratings.

There are so many areas that he is bad at/in that it makes you wonder if there is anything he is good at. Well, he is good at garnering massive hate, dividing a nation and lowering expectations for an elected leader. That's too bad.

Ahh, James Thurber
