quote [ Something must be done. Not just about the flawed warning system in Hawaii, but about a world in which nations are poised to destroy each other with barely a moment's notice. ]

I am saying both, yes. I am saying this is added to the mounting evidence that he is not competent for the job. If his non-response is due to his mental state slipping, then that's all the more. And if instead it is because he is distracted by his own controversies... THEN THAT'S ALL THE MORE TOO.

It really is a case of having your cake and eating it to. Regardless which reason he decided to keep playing golf rather than lead, you still have an (possibly purposefully) absentee leader at a moment of crisis.

As far as the emotional appeal, it's because you, sir, suggested that he should not respond to people terrified for their lives if those people are from a state that doesn't support him. I think you needed a reminder those are in fact, people.
