Boehner: Trump's term 'disaster,' aside from foreign affairs

WASHINGTON (AP) — Former House Speaker John Boehner says that aside from international affairs and foreign policy, President Donald Trump's time in office has so far been a "complete disaster."

Speaking at an energy conference Thursday in Houston, Boehner praised Trump for his approach abroad and his aggressiveness in fighting Islamic State militants, according to the energy publication Rigzone.

"Everything else he's done (in office) has been a complete disaster," the Ohio Republican said, according to the publication. "He's still learning how to be president."

Boehner said he's been friends with Trump for 15 years, but still has a hard time envisioning him as president. He also said Trump shouldn't be allowed to Tweet overnight.

Boehner made it clear he's happier now that he's left Capitol Hill.

"I wake up every day, drink my morning coffee and say, 'Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah,'" he said, according to Rigzone.

And unsurprisingly, Boehner said he doesn't want to be president.

"I drink red wine. I smoke cigarettes. I golf. I cut my own grass. I iron my own clothes. And I'm not willing to give all that up to be president," he said.

Friend...that’s a laugh....he may have known President Trump for 15 years....

Here’s the tell, if President Trump thought anything good about him his phone would have rung for a cabinet post....however, it’s been totally silent.....

Is that surprising for the former Republican speaker of the house? Not a single call, consult or job offer....

That says it all on both how close a friendship he has and what Trump really thinks of him.....

He’s happy he left, and yet every time you turn around this a$$hole is talking to the media and talking bad about Trump.

Disaster? YOU Bonehead were the disaster, go AWAY! We don’t need your mouth anymore.

I heard one way they do it. They put a little something in your drink, usually involving a pretty girl, then haul you to a bed someplace and the next thing you know you wake up with a picture of yourself with a little child. If that is not true, it certainly seems that way.

A reminder of why Boehner had to go...

Oh, an while Trump has had a few setbacks, overall - he has had some solid successes.
