Wehner on Trump: ‘Most Temperamentally Immoderate Person’ To Be Pres. Since Andrew Jackson

‘That’s grounds for worries’

EXCERPT:

WEHNER: "Yeah, that’s right. And look, this has been a trend that’s been going on for a decades now. And the temperature is rising, and the acrimony is -- is going up. And there’s a kind of intemperance and immoderation in our politics. And you see it in terms of the rhetoric. But my concern is it doesn’t stay contained in the rhetoric, that that kind of thing can -- can spread into real-world actions as well. That’s partly why I wrote the piece, because I think we have the most temperamentally immoderate person ever to be president, probably at least since Andrew Jackson, and I think that’s -- that's grounds for worries. But you're quite right, this has been going on for a while, you were right to call it out earlier, but it’s gotten worse since you were -- you were speaking about this in 2009."
