Watergate’s John Dean: Trump Is An “Incompetent Wuss” Who Like Most Bullies “Thinks Nasty Is Strong”

Newsweek reports:

Richard Nixon’s White House counsel John Dean has said that Donald Trump is a “wuss” and a “fake leader” as the president continues to swing out at Robert Mueller’s ongoing investigation into Russian election interference and collusion.

Dean, who served a pivotal role in the Watergate investigation that took down former President Nixon, posted the comments in response to Trump’s latest social media post slamming the Russia probe as a “Democrat Scam!”

Trump’s bitching and whining and complaining is non-stop. The presidency reveals its occupant: Trump’s not only incompetent he’s actually a wuss. Like most bullies he’s a coward. As with most autocrats he’s a very frightened person. He’s a fake leader, who thinks nasty is strong. https://t.co/4YAQkhFv31
