Hiring for Dummies, Part 2

Thanks to Next Door, I found a wonderfully competent landscaper, a grandmother who--with her fiancĂ©--runs rings around the crew of young men who have been putzing about for weeks.  In about an hour, she fixed all the former mistakes, patched the seams in the new grass, knew the names and preferences of the plants, and replaced the sand with soil.

If only a similar replacement could take place in the worst hire in history before we get used to incompetence on a massive level.  Lying is not new in administrations--but we've never seen anything  on this scale.  Most of his statements are patently false or vague/inarticulate enough to be virtually indecipherable. Now that so many public figures are being caught with their pants down, coming out of the woodwork like roaches, he's decided that his own recorded groping comments are probably fake news!

What's he going to do about North Korea's missile launches?  Not to worry--he's "going to take care of it."  (whatever that means).  And tax reform that benefits the wealthiest people and corporations and leaves middle class floundering?  Well, he has to pass something--anything!  The man can't even participate in a ceremony to honor Native Americans without finding a way to disparage both Elizabeth Warren and Native Americans by calling her Pocahontas!
