She actually implied that she prefered having an unprepared man as President of the United States. Farron Cousins discusses this.

Well, president Joe Biden's, uh, G seven meeting his first G seven summit has now come to a close and Republicans could not be more furious about how things went. And one of the reasons they're furious is because he apparently knew what he was doing on Fox news on Thursday, Laura Trump, wife of Eric Trump daughter-in-law to former president Donald Trump lamented. The fact that we have a president who doesn't do things unless he's prepared, here's her statement. And, and just to give some context, this is with regards to Joe Biden, walking to the aircraft, you had reporters like shouting questions at him, and he didn't answer any. He just kept walking and waved and, uh, just got on. And so she thinks that's ridiculous. So here's what she had to say. Remember the good old days guys, whenever Donald Trump would walk to Marine one, unprepared, no note cards, he would just go and say, you, you, you call on anybody. And everybody, we had transparency from our white house. I mean, this is important stuff. Are you kidding me? You are the president of the United States. Think about the signal that this sends to our adversaries, to Vladimir Putin, to Kim Jong-un to people that are kind of looking for weakness within the United States. It makes us look ridiculous.
It is embarrassing. Yeah. Yeah. Biden
Not taking questions is way more embarrassing than, as in your own words, having an unprepared person, just sit there and be like, well, she got who, you, you, you, you, I'm going to say stupid things. And we know that he would say stupid things, because I know that I've sat here and had to talk about them. During the entire Trump administration, it made us look like idiots. It made the president of the United States look like a complete and total moron. But apparently that is what Laura Trump wants to get back to. She is essentially telling us here, like, Hey, remember how awesome it was when we had a president that was a total moron that didn't bother preparing that didn't care who was out there. What was out there? We had transparency. First of all, no, you didn't. You did not have transparency during the Trump administration.
Even if the guy did take questions, he would lie as face off. Every for everything he was asked, he never gave the real truth. He deflected, he insulted, he did all of these horrible things and these little impromptu pressors and you're mad that Joe, Biden's not out there doing the same thing. I agree with Joe Biden, not stopping and answering questions. I would have loved it. If Donald Trump hadn't done that or had done that, excuse me, just walked right past them. Just said, Hey, how's it going? Hey, I'm going to do my little thumbs up thing. I'm going to walk to the plane. I'll see you later. Yeah. I would have been way more okay. With that than with him opening his mouth and either saying something incredibly offensive or something incredibly stupid, because that is what we got from that man day in and day out being unprepared. Laura is not a virtue. It is in fact, a very bad thing. We want the president of the United States to look prepared, to look calm, to sound intelligent.
Is that too much to ask? Well,
Apparently for Republicans like Laura Trump, it is. And they would rather go back to the days of the president saying stupid stuff around the clock,
Just because
It made them feel better. It made Republicans feel smarter. I don't know the answer
Because this is a completely idiotic
Thing for a human being to even say.
