This is how Trump deals with many things that are beyond him intellectually or emotionally. <thread>

I refer to it by a shorthand
LALALALALA

Short for LALALALA I can't hear you. I wrote it up for North Korea. 1/

I saw a report today that he doesn't want to meet Kim Jong Un again before the election. He didn't mention North Korea in the State of the Union. He has no idea how to do anything beyond his gestures and tweets. 2/

Iran has also entered the LALALALALA zone. They are dealing with the sanctions against them and have taken a measured stand on their nuclear program (NOT nuclear weapons program) that can be reversed. Trump's threatening tweets had no effect. 3/

Trump has no concept of how international agreements are made. The Iran nuclear agreement took two years of work from 100-200 people on the US side. Agreements with North Korea and Iran would be just as demanding. Trump has never done anything like that. 4/

The coronavirus is in a more difficult category. Trump has said many times that he is phobic about germs and disease. So he has even more reason to shut his ears to information about it. 5/

There is no reason to believe that the virus will disappear as the weather gets warmer. I have seen no reports that scientists believe this is the case.

But it's what a fearful person might want to believe. 6/

Just one more set of reasons why Trump cannot carry out the duties of the presidency. 7/7
