Is Donald Trump THAT Dumb?

Those who have doubts about Trump just picked up another point.

Former President Donald Trump added himself to the growing list of conservatives expressing shock at Tucker Carlson’s abrupt departure from Fox News on Monday, saying he was “surprised” at the decision.

During a Monday interview on Newsmax about the split, Trump said he was “shocked” to learn of Carlson’s departure from the network...

Shocked?  Really?

Lots of people--myself included--have characterized Trump as a New York liberal who has a couple of differences from the standard ones:  he has a slightly better moral compass (abortion), and has a better sense of what the Deep State/Swamp is all about.

But it's clear that Trump swims in their ocean; being 'shocked' at the execution of a truth-teller betrays a profound mis-reading of the real situation in this country.

Perhaps The Donald swallowed another small red pill yesterday.  That would be good.
