President Trump Continues To Play The Blame Game

The alleged chemical attack by Syria that reportedly killed more than 100 people, including children, once again brought out the worst in President Trump.  He immediately blamed former President Obama at a press conference and also once again told everyone that Obama left him a mess in every category you can think of.

Both statements are self serving and describes a man who is President and unwilling to stop the busk at his desk because he is such a small person who lacks character and has no respect for anyone.  He then went on to say the chemical attack changed his attitude on Syria and its leader Assad.  A person would have to be incompetent if it took a chemical attack to recognize just how ruthless Assad rules.

Trump's statements are a shell game to distract from his own failure to govern.  In fact both Trump and his Secretary of State Rex Tillerson's policy toward Syria and Russia was conciliatory and did not support the notion that Assad had to go.  Nikki Haley, U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. faulted Russia for objecting to a resolution condemning the attack.  And only recently Tillerson visited Russia and its leaders.  Apparently he did not talk about Russia's relationship with Syria and what they are doing there.

Weak leaders with loud voices who brag play the blame game.  The Bush administration tried to do so concerning the attack on 9/11 and blamed President Clinton.  Republicans like to play the blame game when they get caught in their own lies and misinformation.  Trump has taken it to the next level and continues to taint every thing he touches.

After 76 days in office, it is still Trump, the business man and his corrupt agenda.  President Trump is no where to be found and the Presidency, the country and its people will be paying a heavy price for a long time.
