Trump vexed by challenges, scale of government

Poor Donald finding out the government cannot be run like a business.

Poor Donald finding out he cannot just snap his fingers.


Poor Donald finding out he cannot be a dictator.

Poor Donald finding out ...................
=======================================================


Being president is harder than Donald Trump thought, according to aides and allies who say that he’s growing increasingly frustrated with the challenges of running the massive federal bureaucracy.

In interviews, nearly two dozen people who’ve spent time with Trump in the three weeks since his inauguration said that his mood has careened between surprise and anger as he’s faced the predictable realities of governing, from congressional delays over his cabinet nominations and legal fights holding up his aggressive initiatives to staff in-fighting and leaks.

The administration’s rocky opening days have been a setback for a president who, as a billionaire businessman, sold himself to voters as being uniquely qualified to fix what ailed the nation. Yet it has become apparent, say those close to the president, most of whom requested anonymity to describe the inner workings of the White House, that the transition from overseeing a family business to running the country has been tough on him.

Trump often asks simple questions about policies, proposals and personnel. And, when discussions get bogged down in details, the president has been known to quickly change the subject — to "seem in control at all times," one senior government official said — or direct questions about details to his chief strategist Steve Bannon, his son-in-law Jared Kushner or House Speaker Paul Ryan. Trump has privately expressed disbelief over the ability of judges, bureaucrats or lawmakers to delay — or even stop — him from filling positions and implementing policies.

Think his main problem is dealing with Democrats and media that will always try to stop any plans of His!

All of this may be true, but at this point, the article is just gossip - nearly two dozen people saying this and none will go on the record? And two tourists to the WH say the staff seems tired? Why go off the record on that, being tired is part and parcel of the job?

Furthermore, why did it take THREE reporters to write an op/ed that says nothing?

Have you considered that your hatred of Obama blinded you to the truth? Just asking.

Your reply has nothing to do with Trump suddenly finding out that in government he is not the dictator and everyone jumps to his whims as they did in his business. Big surprise I am sure and now a welcome one.

Sorry, but you are wrong.

Trump has never acknowledged a saving relationship with Christ. How can his heart be in the right place when he is unfaithful to his wives, yes wives, when he tells lies over and over, when he insults people. And this is not even mentioning his ties to the mafia when he was young and other dirty dealings like hiring undocumented workers and refusing to pay them.

How about that he wants to keep terrorists out of thisntion, secure the borders, and not bow down to the godless agenda of trying to destroy the infuence of Christianit in society, and trying to combat Isis?
He has many faults, but ALL have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God!
And just maybe God raised him up for times like this!

The ideas as such are good. However his tactics are helping ISIS recruit. He is attitude and tactics are going to be a disaster for us. When a president uses more words whining about Nordstrom's than about Putin, our enemy, and other enemies, you know we are in trouble.

His agenda is godless and it certainly is not following the teachings of Christ on how we are to treat others!

His main problem is himself.

His main oroblem is the volume of complaints, law suits, protests, and negative feedback by democrats and their minions still angered over Hillary's loss. They are naturally grieving, and seemingly stuck in the miry pit of grief and DENIAL, which causes them to act out in innane, insane and just stupid ways to let the world no how lost and confused they are. You gotta feel somewhat sorry for them, but, at the sametime, you want to grab them by their ears and give them a swiftkick in the butt, telling them to grow up.

However, the pronosis for the greater number of these child like adults is at best guarded.
Such a waste of humanity. WOULDN'T you agree CTB? Or not?

Show links that support your claim!!! It's put up ... or, shut up time. And according to my watch, you are almost out of time.

It is interesting to watch the left do the same thing to Trump that the right did to Obama.
Both groups just play fake news wars and toss out gossip like a cheap version of the National Enquirer. At this point I ignore all tweets, Facebook postings and op/eds. I go about my everyday business and thank God for the kindness he has shown me.

IMHO there is a great difference between Trump and Obama
