"We have ourselves a Dunning-Kruger president, one who is supremely confident in his abilities on a range of topics where he is completely ignorant. And now he has taken us into a Dunning-Kruger war, defined by that fatal combination of ignorance and confidence."

Ignorance plus overconfidence gets you the Iran War.

We Are Hated as a Nation. There’s One Man to Blame.

When talking with a new friend from Ireland, I was dismayed to discover just how far America’s reputation has fallen. After this week’s news, it all makes sense.

@ZhiZhu You guys let him become your President. Way too easy to put the blame on just him.

@sibrosan

You're correct.

I also blame everyone who voted for Trump, all the media who normalized him, everyone in his administration who enables him and everyone in Congress who has failed to act as a check & balance on him.

There are a lot of people to blame. But Trump is the face of all of them.

>> "We are hated as a nation now. One man has done this."

That's what the Party of #deplorables would have you believe.

But #Trump could not have done it himself without support from his vice-president, cabinet, #Republican lawmakers, and 2/3 of the #SupremeCourt.

There were multiple opportunities to convict him in the Senate after his prior impeachments, and the 25th Amendment is still available, #impeachment or no impeachment.

So no, one man did not do it. An entire party did.
