No way that Trump can stay focused for as long as two minutes

Hearing him talk in an interview or reading the transcripts you can see that he can't even stay on track for 30 seconds when answering a question

Apparently Trumptard is frustrated with the lack of progress in Afghanistan

Not sure why he doesn't just give the generals his secret plan to win the war.  He mentioned that on the campaign trail along with saying he was smarter than all the generals.

Seems he should be able to take care of this even while being on vacation

White House Staffers Reportedly Call Trump The ‘Two-Minute Man’ Because Of His Short Attention Span

The Donald is unable to keep himself engaged for the time necessary to understand fully what McMaster is telling him. “I call the president the two-minute man,” said one official identified as a “confidant” of Trump. “The president has patience for a half-page.” Others claim “[e]ven a single page of bullet points on the country seemed to tax the president’s attention span on the subject” of “Afghanistan’s history, its complicated politics, or its seemingly endless civil war.”

The president reportedly isn’t happy about the situation in Afghanistan, where American troops have been on the ground for 16 years, and he keeps asking McMaster the same two questions: “Why the U.S. military wasn’t winning in Afghanistan” and why our military is “still stuck there.” Considering Defense Secretary James Mattis’ recent admission that “we’re not winning” there, and a recent report about Russia’s allegedly arming Taliban rebels in the country, Trump’s irritation is understandable. Hence why, as the Post‘s sources contend, McMaster and other staffers have struggled to present viable answers.

They need to cut the bull with these "on faith" stories which might as well be made-up by a creative writing specialist.  If they think we're to believe it's truth, then perhaps they should've worked on being credible all these years.

They haven't.  Far from it.  They're liars.  So we don't know when they tell the truth.

If they want to play games on their own time, then it's on them.  But when they do it with our time, it becomes our business.

how do you know it wasn't on their time?

Trump's father had Alzheimer's and I'm started to think (no joke) that Trump may have some early signs of dementia given that he can barely string together a sentence without losing his train of thought, veering off topic, etc..

Whose?  The alleged "staffers" we have no way of knowing exist in the first place?

Trump's father had Alzheimer's and I'm started to think (no joke) that Trump may have some early signs of dementia given that he can barely string together a sentence without losing his train of thought, veering off topic, etc..

I hope that's not true for his sake and for the sake of everyone else.  I really do wish him a long and healthy life.

IMO, it's he's in over his head and he doesn't know how to adjust on the fly when it becomes necessary to do that.

Look at video of Trump from the 90s. No matter what you thought of him, he was sharp and articulate.
Today he can't hold a thought and his comprehension is poor. The transcript of his phone conversation with Prime minister Turnbull is scary.

Can't deny the fact he wasn't President then, and the scrutiny placed on him wasn't anything compared to now.

Really, I do believe he's torn between doing a "good job" and the Wall of Noise from everyone trying to get to him.  He simply doesn't know what to do most of the time.

Maybe he should act like a real president, ignore the media, and get to work.

sure it was

he made totally bullshit promises on the campaign trail and it's his job as POTUS (and self proclaimed worlds greatest negotiator) to get Congress to do what he promised

Don't forget he said that no one knows the system better than he did and that he alone could fix it

No one else owns his failures

They belong to him

He was totally unprepared for the job and not willing (and no doubt not capable) of putting in the effort.

A few months into the job he was quoted as saying he misses his old life and thought being POTUS would be easier than his old job (which at that point was branding his name and filming a reality TV show in his apartment)

When dealing with people in his own party not to mention other world leaders he's totally lost and everyone who interacts with him knows it

Let's not forget this is the guy who spent 6 year shitting all over the then sitting POTUS with a bullshit story about his birth certificate.   That was the epitome of fake news and then one day Trump just decided Obama really was born in the US and... end of story.  No apologies.  No Admitting it was all bullshit.

This guy gets zero sympathy from me for whatever the media does to him whether it's warranted or not

No one deserves to be eaten alive by the media more than Trump

I understand what you're saying.  I'm right there in many ways.  Sometimes I'm reminded of that guy who ran BP (don't remember name atm, don't care to) who, after his crew created a hole in the ocean floor they had no hope of fixing, could only mourn for his previous life of fucking around the world having fun.

But have you ever heard the saying "You fuck wif Dre, you fucking wif Death Row"?  It's just like that.

See, problem is, if there is an obsession or fixation upon "getting" at him by the club o' clowns running this shitshow media, then we are the ones who lose.  That's not fair.  Morale goes to hell, all because someone else (MSM, known to mislead the unsuspecting ones as a matter of practice) has an agenda.

No, man.  We must choose our priorities and our battles, correctly.

Fuck that

It's totally fair

He's the POTUS. 

Everything he does is open to scrutiny and criticism

Even more so when the POTUS tweets like angry school girl and acts like an ignorant jackass every time he opens his mouth

Fox News spent 8 years criticizing every little thing that Obama did

here's an absurd yet not unusual example

reported in multiple outlets and seems totally consistent with the fragile ego and constant need for praise that we know is true about Trump

however I'm very skeptical that Trump could actually pay attention for 2 minutes

I think 15 to 30 seconds at best

Trump derangement syndrome is real.
