Leadership is hard.
When I was in college, I was the leader of all of the projects I participated in, but I consider myself a terrible leader. I'm able to keep a consistent vision and put my foot down on a final decision, but when it comes to motivating? No, I'm just not good at it.
Leadership is HARD. Just because you are in a leadership position or a position of power doesn't mean you are an effective or good leader. History is riddled with examples of terrible leaders or people undeservingly put in a position of leadership. The Entropy is of course another person who has been in a leadership position all his adult life, but has nothing to show for it.
In his memoir, he proudly proclaims that he would go into his office every day and just wait for the phone to ring. Recently he tweeted something along those lines regarding the healthcare bill, that he was waiting in his office waiting to sign the bill once it passed through Congress.
Of course, that's exactly where the bill keeps dying.
The Entropy does not know how to lead. He is used to using whatever power he has as a cudgel to browbeat others into falling in line. It barely worked in his years in business, and it sure as shit isn't going to work in politics.
When Obama was going around trying to pass his healthcare bill, before it was watered down considerably, he was going around everywhere to curry support from both his constituents and people across party lines. In fact, that drew considerable criticism from his own followers, that he squandered the majority support he had to gain more support from his opponents, who were going around screaming that he was a secret Muslim who was going to hand us over to the terrorists and foreign powers. Still, he had a more proactive role in trying to get his bill passed.
You could point out many similarities between the political climate then and now, but there are many, VERY important differences. The main difference is that the Entropy HAS colluded with foreign powers with heaps of evidence just from within his own family, never mind whatever Robert Mueller's investigation has dug up on him, so the opposition party's claims are not baseless, here, and not heavily tinged with xenophobia and racism. The second difference, primarily when it comes to the proposed "healthcare" bill (if you can call it that) is that it will skyrocket insurance premiums while kicking a huge portion of the country off of healthcare and provide a massive $800 billion tax cut to the wealthiest of the wealthy. All in the name of freedom or something.
It's a disastrous healthcare proposal that is Paul Ryan's wettest of wet dreams; everyone of sound mind knows this, and that is one of two reasons why this bill has almost zero support from anyone who isn't batshit insane or sociopathic. The other reason... is that there is no effort on part of the Entropy to rally favor for this bill. He said it himself; he sits in his office and waits for it to come to him.
The first time the healthcare bill came to a vote about 619 years ago, he had Steve Bannon come to the floor and outright threaten people and demand they fall in line with the Dear Leader. This is how the Entropy knows how to lead, through brute force and threats. He is only here in the first place not because he wants to rally together the country and actually make progress, but because he wants to profit and satisfy his ravenous, colossal ego, even if he has to sell his soul to the devil to get that fix (if he hasn't already).
It's affecting every action, word and judgement he makes. He tries to claim he has done more than everyone else who has ever occupied the White House (which is an egregious lie and quickly becoming trite to repeatedly claim that), he complained that he can't get things done because people are being meany-meany poop heads (even though the opposition with Obama was much more intense and exceedingly violent, and even his own party is against his own proposals), and he's absolutely obsessed with trying to at least repeal Obamacare, which, despite its many flaws, is at least providing some affordable coverage to some of the people who need it, all because it has Obama's name on it, all because Obama championed it.
By the way, the Entropy STILL won't shut the fuck up about the fucking election. He's still bent over losing the popular vote to Hillary, and is trying to force states into relinquishing very sensitive voter information so he can illegally target and attack people who didn't vote for the Dear Leader.
This is not a man who can make rational decisions or lead a nation. This is an egotistical manchild who wants to be god-king, who wants to hear his name chanted endlessly. He aspires to be a dictator in a banana republic who forces his subjects at gunpoint to cheer and bow to him just for existing. The fact that he can't do that here causes him considerable pain each and every day. That's why he attacks everyone, that's why he lashes out with utter petulance and falsehoods at anyone he can. This isn't "modern" as he claims; this is the mewlings of a pathetic little worm who has always been much smaller than his social and economic standing, who uses his inherited status to try and change the rules to benefit only him at the expense of everyone else. This is not someone who knows how to lead or has even remotely good intentions. If it got him praise, he'd burn the world in nuclear fire without a second thought.
Leadership is hard, and we handed the ultimate leadership over to the least qualified leader in modern history.
