Trump’s hot-air hazard balloons by the day

I don’t always agree with letter-writer Eric Bahrt, but we and many others do agree that Donald Trump would be an unmitigated disaster as US president.

Trump is flummoxed on many issues.  Just days ago he emphatically stated, “Russia would never go into Ukraine, believe me. You can take that to the bank.” When the interviewer countered that Russia is already in Ukraine and had taken over Crimea months ago, Trump was – well, he was trumped. He couldn’t even wiggle his lying way out of that hole he dug for himself.  
The next day his handlers were equally miffed at what an oaf their paymaster is and how they continually have to try and clean up the verbal messes he leaves in his wake.   At least for now it’s just hot air coming from his mouth. If he’s elected in November it could be hot radioactive air emanating from his foolhardy actions.
