Trump says he misses life before he became US president

[OmegaStarScream]

US President Donald Trump has been talking about his previous life and how surprised he is that his new job at the White House is not less taxing: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-39743712

This is a surprise to nobody but him - it has always been clear that he is naive in the extreme.

Perhaps he will step down early if he finds it too much 

[HabBear]

The worst thing he could say right now is that he doesn't like the job or that he preferred his life before this job.

This guy is the most controversial person ever to be a US President, and for him to hint at the fact that he's not really into it or that he wishes he hadn't been President is an insult to the entire country. This guy embarrasses the office and the Presidency weekly.

[Barrymore]

The only word of truth which I heard from him is that being President was harder than he had imagined. It says that all of his campaign promises were empty. He will not be able to comply with them.

Secret: POTUS is a shit job.  Nobody sane would want it.

True.

I guess having a massive ego is sort of a pre-requisite to wanting the job.

Never mind Donald Trump he is just pretending... He knows the job before he even run for presidential office!

What Trump gives the impression of a smart person? I believe that Trump had imagined the work of the President very differently. He thought 4 years will be God, but it turned out all wrong.

Trump you be trolling, then again he probably enjoyed the rallies more than the President duties.
Or maybe it is like well I was a CEO and chill but now I am an the Top Employee and their is so much to do either way he is improving the learning curve for him was steep. Still it has been more than a century - of days - for Mr Trump. We aren't done for a while yet

Truth it's a Status object that costs Billions to get into or not, for a $400,000 honorary salary that tends to get donated ha-ha.

Do not be surprised at all. All presidential candidates promise a lot and never do anything from their promises.

Trump must understand that being the president of the United States is not an easy job. There is always the option of being a puppet of someone, and playing golf instead of doing the job (just like what Obama did during his term). But if you have your own independent ideas, then please spend some time implementing them.

[gabmen]

Well he asked for it and considering all the things that had been said and done to put him in that seat, I don't think he has any right to complain unless he's proven himself worthy of the position he holds. Can't believe he's already into that considering he hasn't even been a year there

Though he might not expect what he is facing concerning both local and international policies,but he no the job and with time he will be used to international politics. Many first time presidents find it as a surprise most of the issue the meet after taking orth of office but at the end see different things. What he just needs to do is focus and determination for good government.

Trump is an example of a President who doesn't want to be a puppet, but to break out of control he can't. His every move is limited. Obama is much easier and more confident feel in the seat of the President.

[Cryptogott]

Well there is nothing like being the president of the united states. Too bad i will never know how it feels

Yezzir.

This is something you keep to yourself, given the circumstances. This is akin to a pilot saying 'hope we get her down, this is tough!' while landing. Might be the truth, but dammit,  it doesn't make anyone feel any better.

Our president has zero chill.

It's hard to believe how he treats being the president.  He doesn't take it serious or put in the time or effort that should be put into it.  He wants everything to be handed to him and now he is upset that it hasn't been.  Upsetting...

Trump thought the President is like the Queen in chess is the main figure and goes as he pleases. In fact, he was a pawn. It goes only to those corridors where it is allowed. He is not much like it.

[Apened]

I think he is not too much serious with it or some kind of joke .But if he meant well he better steps down on his position as president rather than not doing his full job as US president .Expectations on him is too high before he got his position so he needs to accept and do his job .

He needs support from the establishment dominated senate and the house. So he has watered down some of his policies, and abandoned some other. But still, far better than Obama who didn't had any polices of his own.
