Dr. Nsenga Burton:

A Black Executive Perspective now presents Need to Know with the award winning hyphenated Dr. Nsenga Burton. Dr. Burton. What do we need to know? Good afternoon Welcome to need to know with dr. Nissinga Burton. I am she and today I am going to be talking about that fiasco that horrible horrible Presentation by 47. I think I'm just gonna start calling him the Manchurian candidate because based on what happened at that press conference press conference in quotes It was really a, like, really mild WWE match, uh, in the Oval Office or wherever they were, but, um, I don't know if you saw the press conference with, uh, Ukrainian President Zelensky, but it was a travesty, you know, um, there's such a thing as decorum and professionalism and we already knew from 45, right? When he was 45, 2016, that, uh, The Manchurian candidate has none of that. He has none of it. And the fact that he has not done anything or and his handlers, no one around him has been able to get him to maybe take a class or to have a little bit of training or to think about diplomacy and his relationship to foreign affairs is mind boggling to me. The fact that he's still behaving badly and even worse. I mean, he badgered demeaned. He physically put his hands on President Zelensky. He lied on him, lied to him, anything, any of the S. A. T. words that start with D. E. or B. E. is what happened in that particular press conference. It was embarrassing for our nation and I usually don't suffer a secondhand embarrassment. I'm very clear on people being doing embarrassing things and it really reflecting who they are and not who I am, but I had some secondhand embarrassment because I guess I'd forgotten about how uncouth. Unpolished, mean spirited, verbally abusive, and unprofessional, this current president is, and remains to be. And their people actually celebrate him. You know, the Ukraine needed to be told, you know, we don't have a, uh, an empty bank account for them. I'm like, you can tell talk about difficult subjects in a respectable way. You can be respectful to guests. One of the worst things my mother told me, always told me, one of the worst things you can ever do is invite someone into your house and mistreat them. That's one of the worst, lowest things you can do, followed by being invited to someone's house and then coming out of that house and talking badly about them. Right. So again, decorum and our current president lacks decorum, but also what came out of that press conference and why I'm calling him the Manchurian candidate. And if you've seen the movie, um, either the original or the remake, you know what I'm talking about, but this is a, it's, it's about a, uh, a president, um, who has been compromised by the Russian government, by the Soviets. Um, and the fact that in this, Press Conference 47 managed to align us with North Korea and Russia. He talked down and talked poorly, talked badly about, maligned our former presidents, U. S. presidents, while he uplifted Soviet President Putin. He did away with decades. Of foreign policy with his words. He basically said that Putin is his man I'm saying that in vernacular They're not together together. I don't think I don't know but They together together in politics, right? but that his alliance is with Putin and that Even though the ukraine is our ally and is the ally of all of our other allies historically. He is now Juxtaposed himself and reposition the U. S. Against our current allies, then he had the audacity to pause. The funding to the Ukraine, when Zelensky said, and you can see this on C SPAN because all they keep playing is like, the WWE portion of the press conference, but C SPAN is showing it unedited. Um, but when Zelensky said, stopping aid from the Ukraine, basically, um, we'll put them in peril. And make them, um, weaker, uh, and increase the possibility of Russian taking, of Russia taking the Ukraine. Now, the Russia said, and I know we don't call them Russia anymore, but that's why I call them, I'm 52, I'm calling them Russia. The Soviet Union, the former Soviet Union, has said that they were going to take the Ukraine in three days. And it has been three years. So those are some fighters and they have made good use of whatever funding they have received from the allies. If you need an indicator or measurable outcome. All right. So this idea that somehow the Ukraine is, you know, bankrupt in the U. S. it is not not even possible remotely the idea that the Ukraine started the war. It did not not even remotely and thus and so they need to be thankful to the United States for keeping Putin off their ass, which actually. Has been happening, but under Biden under the Biden Harris administration, not under this 1. I was like, are we 60 days in February? 19 March? 19 would be 60. we're not even 60 days in and our current president has managed to put us in a very weak weekend. Invulnerable position, because he is clearly been compromised in my mind, you know, this is just me watching. I don't have any intelligence data. I'm not Elon Musk. I don't have access to all the records, all the records, um, but if I had to put money on it. I would say this candidate is compromised because there's no, you know, aside from the unprofessionalism, aside from the lack of decorum that we know and expect, there's no reason for him, you know, surrounded by his cronies, including JD Vance, learn how to sit on a sofa. Why are you there? Anyway, like, you're not even supposed to be there, but if you're going to be there, learn how to sit appropriately. Can you please sit up? Um, and and be quiet. Do look at Rubio. I mean, you know, I'm not a fan of Rubio, but at least you know how to act, uh, in certain circumstances, my goodness, take some notes, but I saw how JD Vance and this is me being mean. And I mean, it when he let his mama and grandma come to the RC, looking the way they did, I knew that he didn't care about nothing. He didn't care about nothing. And that was on full display. In this particular instance, so I'm sorry, I had a mean girl moment. I'm coming back. The point is the quorum is important when you lead nations, institutions, corporations, nonprofits, or what have you, you have to have the quorum, you have to withhold sometimes how you're really feeling inside, you know, you have to not say everything that comes to your brain. And you certainly have to not sell out your country to a sworn enemy every single time you get on a microphone. So, you know, my mother's like, I'm just waiting to get my Russian I. D. in the mail. I said, me too. Maybe they'll email it to us since they have all our data. Um, but, you know, the lack of decorum is too much. So please do not follow your president. I mean, do not follow what he's doing. Um, remember your manners, remember your training and remember your professionalism, particularly when you are leading a major entity and whatever you do, never sell out your people. Never talk down on your people in order to celebrate the ops. That's Nsenga Burton.
