Do you watch Tucker Carlson on Fox News? Not a Rino or a leftist, I think. This is what he makes of Trump's character and abilities - and he has seen him up close.
INTERVIEWER: The Swiss are very suspicious of anybody who is boastful. That's why I have a question about Trump.
CARLSON: I hate that about him. I hate that … it's not my culture. I didn't grow up like that.
INTERVIEWER: Do you think he has kept his promises?
CARLSON: No. His chief promises were that he would build the wall, de-fund planned parenthood, and repeal Obamacare, and he hasn't done any of those things ... I've come to believe that Trump's role is not as a conventional president who promises to get certain things achieved and then does. I don't think he's capable. I don't think he's capable of sustained focus. I don't think he understands the system.
INTERVIEWER: Has he really achieved nothing?
CARLSON: Not much. Much less than he should have. I've come to believe he's not capable of it.
INTERVIEWER: Why should he be not capable?
CARLSON: In order to do it you really have to understand how it works and you have to be very focused on getting it done, and he knows very little about the legislative process, hasn't learned anything, hasn't surrounded himself with people that can get it done, hasn't done all the things you need to do. It's mostly his fault that he hasn't achieved those things. I'm not in charge of Trump.

So we have a POTUS who is boastful, incapable of sustained focus, doesn't understand the system, hasn't learned anything - also mendacious, untrustworthy etc, but Carlson wasn't asked directly about that - leading the country in what may be its gravest crisis for half a century.
