Obama: Why, Just Imagine If a Worker Wanted to Extract Concessions from a Factory. And So He Stopped Working and Shut the Factory Down. Imagine Such a Thing. He'd be Fired!

Is Obama endorsing hardcore strike-breaking tactics, or is he, as many of us have long begun to suspect, a man of mediocre intelligence in well over his head?

The response here is so obvious one feels stupid even noting it:

But given that this response is so obvious, why did it not occur to the Sage of Chicago? Granted, he was speaking off the cuff -- always an adventure with President Teleprompter Jesus. And yet this completely-counterfactual hypothetical took him a minute of umms and uhhs to compose. That's a lot of time for someone to realize his little story has crossed the line from the hypothetical to the palpably thetical, and make adjustments.

But not TFG. No, this guy just bulls on through, as usual, no matter how many stupid mistakes he's made.

There's nothing more dangerous than the Egotistical Idiot whose personality dysfunctions effectively hide his incompetence from himself. Such a man will make mistake after mistake after mistake, and will never learn a damn thing from it, because his Ego will just keep telling him, "You're the best."
