Sometimes the simple explanation is the correct one. Trump really is stupid. He really is thin-skinned. He really does believe bizarre nonsense that he sees on Breitbart or on TV.
It'd be nice if the world didn't work in a way that allowed a deeply incompetent, utterly unqualified man to be elected president of the most powerful country on earth. It's nice to think that this isn't what it seems, that there's some kind of clever plot going on to make us believe that Trump is worthless while he's secretly brilliant.
There isn't. He's not. He is what he looks like, and he always has been.
Nope. Everything he says is for affect. Might look stupid to liberals, but he KNOWS his base will eat it up. And that's how he won the election, while liberals were UNDERESTIMATING him. And that's why he might get away with Treason if liberals CONTINUE to underestimate him.
Trump himself, attributes it to Napalitano? Were supposed to believe the guy who lies 70% of the time he talks? Were supposed to believe Napolitano's not in on it? Who lives at Trump tower and is a known SHILL for conservative causes?
You guy's are all missing the plot. Top spies in the UK think it came straight from the Kremlin. Their research backs this up. The UK spying on Trump thing started on Russian Fake News Blogs before Trump even uttered it.
Same shit happened during the Obama Wiretapp thing. While America was saying "OMG TRUMP SO STUPID HE JUST SAID SOMETHING BREITBART REPORTED ON" His base ATE it up that the CIA could not be trusted. Then that narrative was REINFORCED by Russian-Directed WikiLeaks. Then that narrative was HAMMERED through with Russian Trolls spreading CIA is evil propaganda through Twitter, Reddit etc.
I monitor Russian Trolls online. I see their narratives. I see how it matches up with what Donald's saying. And I see how ALL of it, amounts to defending the puppet President.
