    Trump at the Jamboree

    I just watched Trump give a speech at the National Jamboree. He started out pretty well talking about scoutings benefits and noting how many people in positions of authority were scouts. Then he turned it into a campaign speech. I mean the guy is talking to a bunch of scouts about how great the economy is and what a disaster the ACA is. This douchbag doesn't have a clue.
    One can be sure that he who says he knows knows nothing

    You think only a handful of ten year olds were there?

    Who calls who a douche bag?

    Kind of like the douchbag democrats talking about climate change and transgender bathrooms when jobs have been the real issue.

    They were scouts. His comments were inappropriate for that forum.

    The irony of the whole thing was amazing. Trustworthy, loyal, brave. Trump is antithetical to the Scout creed. The whole thing was embarrassing. I guess people who were never involved in scouting wouldn't get it.

    "To help other people at all times..."

    "Do a good turn daily."

    I don't hold the scouts responsible. Trump had an opportunity to give an uplifting speech about scouting and he started riffing and turned it into another campaign speech that was all about him. He doesn't have a clue.
