Plenty of city council members are mouthbreathers, for sure. So what? Those mouth breathers aren't the president of the united states.
Those mouth breathers do not have command of the immense power of the united states government, are not responsible for foreign policy, nor do they command the armed forces. Some other mouth breather does that, and if the best we can do is to say that some low level city council mouthbreather does the same stupid shit that the moutbreather occupying the office of the presidency does...we're not exactly absolving the president of anything.
One is left to wonder exactly what trump would have to do to be held uniquely responsible for his own uniquely unqualified actions before a trumpit thought he fucked up. Accidentally hit the red button while trying to order a burger? Is that enough? Or do we blame the engineers who made the bomb and the technicians who rigged the football or the handlers who keep the president moving from nap-time to arts and crafts? Maybe some other country's government, for failing to shoot it down?
In this country of personal responsibility, it is appalling that the person in the position of being responsible for so much simply doesn't believe in responsibility, and more tragic still that those to whom and for whom he is explicitly responsible are willing to accept such a notion.
