Schumer said, “Negotiaing with this White House is like negotiating with Jell-O. It’s next to impossible. As soon as you take one step forward, the hard right forces the president three steps back.”

1).Trump is soft

Physically, Trump and Jell-O are both soft. The President thinks that he gets exercise by riding his golf cart around the golf course.

Trump is also emotionally soft. For example, his weeks-long meltdown over the book Fire And Fury paralyzed the national discourse. Trump is also mentally soft. This is a president who doesn’t read and spends his days reacting to what he sees on Fox News. Trump has no base of knowledge, and no principles of his own so he spends his days as a pile of mush who is waiting for his next Fox News fix.

2). Like Jell-O, Trump is tasteless

Jell-O has lots of colors but no taste. Trump only like one color (white), but also has no taste. No one blinked an eye when it was revealed that Trump paid for sex with an adult film actress, and seem even less surprised at Michael Wolff’s suggestion that Trump is cheating on his wife in the White House. Everything about Trump screams tasteless from his Access Hollywood tape boasts about sexual assault to his mocking of a disabled reporter. Trump is tasteless, but unlike Trump, Jell-O is unoffensive.

3). Trump just like Jell-O is pointless at any gathering

No one ever runs out of a party screaming when they see Jell-O on the dessert table, but no one eats it either. There really isn’t a point to bringing Jell-O to a party unless that party is in a hospital or toddler birthday gathering. Like Jell-O on a crowded table, Trump is pointlessly taking up space in the White House that should be given to a better option.

A man who promised to make America great is really nothing more than a plate of soft, tasteless, pointless Jell-O
