House Speaker Paul Ryan says it doesnt concern him that President Donald Trump doesnt offer more detailed plans to fulfill his lofty campaign promises because I see him as more of a chairman.
Ryan made the remark in an interview on NBCs Today show on Tuesday.
Ryan, who has a reputation for being a policy wonk, was asked whether Trumps broad-brush campaign promises are frustrating. Trump, for example, campaigned on repealing Obamacare but hasnt yet proposed a replacement, now saying nobody knew that health care could be so complicated.
Ryan said hes not frustrated: I see him as more of a chairman, as a president, much like many successful presidents have been, where he gets people around him who are detailed people who can execute those plans.

They track details and educate themselves (by company employees) on the issues and facts.
tRump is a fraud. He never was a good business person, starting with the two Federal Consent Decrees he had to sign for [font size = "+1" color = "purple"]racism.[/font]

His cabinet picks are no-knowing idiots, picked for their giving to him or their ideological slant, and for their willingness to blow up their posts so all the $$ can go to the rich, instead of just some of it. The scariest thing is what does Drumpf intend to do about nuclear energy. He obviously doesn't understand nuclear weapons and is the biggest danger on the earth right now with his tiny fingers and ignorant brain in charge of the button that would annihilate the world.

To bad the people DT brings into his "circle" are deluded and clueless too.
