Yeah? Well, if I was Trump, I'd stop acting like a petulant fucking child, man up, and work my orange ass off to get up to speed on this job I'm so unqualified to hold. I'd be embarrassed to be such an embarrassment. I know such modesty and self-reflection isn't his "style" but I sure as hell wouldn't be spouting off about something as critical as our nuclear arsenal and the agreements we have in place concerning that arsenal before thoroughly doing my homework. I'm not talking about a damn briefing. I'm talking about the sort of immersive study he should have done when it first dawned on him that he might want to run for this office. Too late for that now. But he can at least treat this job with the seriousness it requires and deserves. The son of a bitch has time to pick quarrels with celebrities, retail chains, and judges (Democrat and Republican appointees alike) but needs to ask about something like this while on the phone with Putin?!?
