Trump Just Admitted the Real Reason He Won't Accept Pelosi's Stimulus Offer, and It's Peak Trump

A key thing I don't think people fully appreciate about Trump is he's completely incapable of engaging with policy beyond soundbites. His mind can't grasp details or nuance, so when he's asked about them he immediately changes the topic. This clip shows it pic.twitter.com/8UCnNMOubt

“We want stimulus because it's China's fault."
(1. Lie. 2. Where does he think stimulus comes from?)

“Nancy wants to bail out badly run Democrat cities."
(1. Lie. 2. What does he think the purpose of stimulus is?)

Pride before compassion = pure evil

Too prideful to help Americans struggling living in areas he doesn't like? Great message to put out there

"your pride couldn't let it happen"

Pretty much sums up most of what drives him.

yeah, that's the worst of it. @realDonaldTrump literally said he won't do it because his pride wouldn't let him....

Not a leader, not a president - not even a decent human being.#OrangeTintedTaint

Never one ounce of personal responsibility for this disaster.

Pisses me off when he makes broad sweeping statements, his so called “facts" and not one journalist or interviewer ever asks him to give examples,give specifics or details, which we all know he can't. But at least get in his face. Keep pushing. Don't let him slither out of it.

That's why he goes on FAUX. They even laugh at him as he goes off saying really absolutely nothing at all.

I appreciate this. He knows nothing about it. There is no plan. We've been living the last four years of each decision made being impulsive and catering to some sort of personal or business interest. There is no consideration of how each decision affects the country overall.

It's pretty easy to understand when you factor this in: He doesn't know anything. He doesn't have more than the barest, thinnest and most superficial grasp of anything. It's why he has to keep saying how smart he is. The term "know-nothing" was invented for him. He exemplifies it

He's what happens when a lazy kid who doesn't do his homework never gets corrected or challenged his whole life. Except he's the president of the United States during a global crisis.

And it's pretty obvious from Varney's reaction that he realizes Trump knows nothing.

Yes, stimulus is good, but only because this is china's fault. Otherwise, stimulus is not good. He is very smart.

Yes! That's exactly it! I've been saying this ad nauseam for the last 4 years!
