With Trump, 'hard to imagine' is the norm

From the Washington Post article,

Trump’s decision on Iran nuclear deal could cause major breach with allies in Europe


A pithy paragraph, to which I added emphasis:

"Negotiators had envisioned a U.S. president who would justify staying in the arrangement as long as Iran lived up to its obligations, not a die-hard opponent who has branded the agreement an “embarrassment.” The 60-day, expedited “snapback” provision in U.S. law was designed to punish Iran quickly in the event it violated the deal and did not envision that the United States would breach it."

See, there are two cases in that paragraph in which the negotiators did not envision (i.e., they didn't think it was possible) that a President of the United States would do what Donald Trump is doing.

Indeed, there are numerous instances of Trump doing what hardly anyone would think a President would do.  Letting the EPA collapse, basically not doing what it was intended to do, which is protect the environment.  Letting the Department of the Interior give back national monuments to extractive (oil, gas, coal) interests.  Letting endangered species stay endangered, without protection.  Cutting taxes without a plan to keep the deficit under control, and emulating the Kansas disaster in the process.  Abandoning nearly the entire territory and most of the U.S. citizens of Puerto Rico to the Hurrricane Maria disaster.  Playing a game of nuclear chicken with North Korea.  Calling racist marchers "good people".  And not really worrying about the myriad ways that Russia influenced the last election, many of those ways likely to have helped get him elected.

I could go on and on and on.  But the basic truth remains:  Trump is the Unimaginable President.

As Denzel Washington says, "God help us all."
