Carl Bernstein: Trump’s ‘Incessant Lying’ Shows the ‘Level of His Incompetence’

BERNSTEIN: It’s more than a blow because in addition to the line that that surrounded his presidency and his incessant lying which Republicans even have now become terribly alarmed at, it shows the level of his incompetence, which is something that was known to many people who had done business with the Trump Organization. It was known to people who worked on “The Apprentice” with him when he would show up on the set without having done his homework, having done no preparation, having no idea of where the script was going. There’s nothing new about this. Read the Trump biographies. He’s not a competent leader. And on top of that, as you have indicated at the beginning of this program, his presidency is a bodyguard of lies. And that is undermining his presidency at the same time his closest aides are under serious investigation and a possible conspiracy that may extend in some way to himself.
