Blame

Guardian UK: Donald Trump blames everyone but himself for healthcare legislation failure - President’s targets include conservatives, Democrats and a possible veiled jab at Paul Ryan as Republican hand-wringing over repeal-and-replace failure continues
“I still believe that there is a good chance, if moderates and conservatives can come together, that we repeal and replace Obamacare, bring premiums down, cover more people.” (said the leader of the Freedom Caucus, Mark Meadows of North Carolina)

I get the impression Donald just thought all he had to do was snap his stubby fingers and everything would simply proceed from there. I don't think he really has an even basic understanding of how the process in DC actually works nor does he really care to know. I guess we'll see soon enough. If he was really smart he'd find some excuse to quit and just go down to Mar A Lago and play golf which is obviously his real passion at this juncture in his pathetic excuse for a life. You can smell the buyer's remorse out here.

Yes, indeed, the comparison between Trump and Obama is startling. Trump has no grasp of anything except for superficial notions, many of which are from conspiracy sites and tabloids. He is so far out of his depth it's painful. Obama was into policy, and he had the smarts to at least show some results and expertise, some good and some bad.
