Donald Trump, The Man With The Nuclear Codes, Doesn’t Know How To Use A Phone
This is painful to watch.
Hello and welcome to the latest instalment in our ongoing coverage of Donald Trump being a fucking idiot. How is this man in charge of the most powerful nation on earth? Don’t think about it!
In case you missed them, recent chapters in this series include Donald Trump Threatened To Nuke Iran On Twitter, Donald Trump Being Taught To Walk By The Queen and of course, Donald Trump Insists He’s A “Very Stable Genius”. Which brings us to today’s episode: Donald Trump Does Not Know How To Use A Goddamn Telephone.
Trump was on Monday set to call Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto to discuss a trade agreement between their two nations. Only, like a small, stupid child, he couldn’t figure out how to connect the line.

This, for the record, is exactly what I think Trump would look like while trying to order a nuclear strike: just him, sitting in the Oval Office, looking lost and confused, randomly mashing buttons until someone came in and took over.
The footage of Trump failing at the most basic of tasks has naturally been turned into a massive meme.
so just as an experiment I put the president’s ~supremely~ awkward oval office moment to the @VeepHBO closing credits theme song just now. uhh it works v well. pic.twitter.com/uWO5d7EVTF

Honestly, it’s still better than his call with Malcolm Turnbull.
