It has taken a good deal longer than it should have, but Americans have now seen the con man behind the curtain.
When, in January 2016, I wrote that despite being a lifelong Republican who worked in the previous three GOP administrations, I would never vote for Donald Trump, even though his administration would align much more with my policy views than a Hillary Clinton presidency would, a lot of my Republican friends were befuddled. How could I not vote for a person who checked far more of my policy boxes than his opponent?
What I explained then, and what I have said many times since, is that Trump is fundamentally unfit—intellectually, morally, temperamentally, and psychologically—for office.
It took until the second half of Trump’s first term, but the crisis has arrived in the form of the coronavirus pandemic, and it’s hard to name a president who has been as overwhelmed by a crisis as the coronavirus has overwhelmed Donald Trump.

Seriously, who actually reads The Atlantic?
The author will be on suicide watch when Trump is handily re-elected.
To: justme4now
The writer worked for George W Bush - is that correct?
Remember when freepers loved Bush?

Peter must have been smoking dope when the previous Republican Presidents were in office. They accomplished nothing in comparison to President Trump.

Thank God for The Atlantic. My degree of confidence in national government had been so amorphous and disjointed until they made things simple enough for me to understand. /s
Elitist arrogant pukes.

Wehner is a war mongering neocon and original NeverTrumper. Part of the Bush Circle.

Reports of the demise of Team Trump are greatly exaggerated.
None of this has basis in fact, and shaking the Trump supporters loose is much like getting green apples to fall from the tree.
Neva happen, GI.

Wow! That article may have the highest percentage of BS to total words since Trump took the oath of office. To the author: congratulations, a**hole!
