King Me

AITOOW has noticed how the deliberate mind of of King Barry seems as efficacious as whatever decision making alternatives he arrogantly derides? It seems that he is always caught be surprise by something and recalibrating. His superior methodology didn't seem to predict the problems with Universal Health Care. His extra-sensory ability didn't seem to predict umpteen changes to global politics. He didn't forsee the border crisis his pandering/executive order would cause. On and on. And in each instance you could ask what was avoided by his dithering. Could it have been any worse if he just flipped a coin and adjusted on the fly? I'm not saying that deliberation and forecasting aren't theoretically superior alternatives, but, it has been all too clear for a while that he just wasn't up to the challenge. And all this was made all the worse by his propensity to play political games (keeping himself and his party in power) with policy. It seems that not only has he been playing checkers with a feeble opponent, but, that he is over matched in this children's game.
