Trump was asked if he was preoccupied with the NFL. He answered, “Well, I wasn’t preoccupied with the NFL. I was ashamed of what was taking place because to me I think that was a very important moment. I don’t think you can disrespect our country, our flag, our national anthem. To me, the NFL situation is a very important situation. I’ve heard that before about was I preoccupied, not at all, not at all. I have plenty of time on my hands. All I do is work, and to be honest with you, that’s an important function of working. It’s called respect for our country.”
Donald Trump has spent three times more days on vacation this year than Obama did during his first year in office. Trump has played golf 60 times in his eight-month presidency. Trump also spends hours a day watching cable news.
The President apparently believes that tweeting is work, and that rambling about NFL ratings on Twitter is part of his job. A president’s job is to govern, and Trump has done no governing and has zero major legislative accomplishments during his first year in office.
Donald Trump is not living in reality, but if he thinks tweeting about the NFL is work, it explains why he is failing as president.
