So... speaking of Trump...
Bob Woodward, a famous journalist who has won two Pulitzer prizes, whose investigative reporting was the key to Watergate, and who was called by the conservative publication The Weekly Standard "the best pure reporter of his generation, perhaps ever" is releasing a book about Trump and the Trump White House.
It describes aides stealing important letters and memos from Trump's desk before he could sign them, and people ignoring his military orders to kill heads of state of other countries. Chief of staff John Kelly describes Trump as an "idiot" and "unhinged," Woodward reports. Defense Secretary James Mattis describes Trump as having the understanding of "a fifth or sixth grader." And Trump's former personal lawyer John Dowd describes the President as "a ****ing liar," telling Trump he would end up in an "orange jump suit" if he testified to special counsel Robert Mueller.
"He's an idiot. It's pointless to try to convince him of anything. He's gone off the rails. We're in crazytown," Kelly is quoted as saying at a staff meeting in his office. "I don't even know why any of us are here. This is the worst job I've ever had."
It also gives background for the Tillerson "The guy is a moron" comment... they had a huge meeting with the military about the Koreas... But the meeting didn't go as planned. Trump went off on his generals. "You should be killing guys. You don't need a strategy to kill people," Trump said of Afghanistan.
He questioned the wisdom of keeping US troops in South Korea.
"So Mr. President," former economic advisor Gary Cohn said to Trump, "what would you need in the region to sleep well at night?"
"I wouldn't need a ****ing thing," the President said. "And I'd sleep like a baby."
After Trump left the Tank, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson declared: "He's a ****ing moron."
