Input: WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump’s time in office has been a “complete disaster” aside from foreign affairs, fellow Republican and former U.S. House Speaker John Boehner said at an energy conference.

 The former Ohio congressman said he has been friends with Trump for 15 years but never thought he would occupy the White House. 
  
 And while he praised Trump’s aggressive steps to challenge the Islamic State militant group and other moves in international affairs, he was highly critical of the president’s other early efforts. 
  
 “Everything else he’s done has been a complete disaster,” Boehner said at the energy conference in Houston on Wednesday, according to the energy publication Rigzone. “He’s still learning how to be president.” 
  
 A spokesman for Boehner confirmed the comments. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Boehner’s remarks. 
  
 The former House speaker, who resigned from Congress in 2015, was also highly critical of efforts by the administration and his former Republican colleagues in Congress to advance sweeping healthcare and tax reform plans. 
  
 He said Republicans should never have tried to “repeal and replace” the Affordable Care Act, even after the House narrowly passed an overhaul measure. The Senate is considering its own version of the package. 
  
 And he dismissed tax reform efforts, which form a cornerstone of the Republican policy agenda, as “just a bunch of happy talk.” 
  
 While Boehner’s successor, Speaker Paul Ryan, tries to include a border adjustment tax, a tax on imports, as a key piece of any tax code overhaul, Boehner declared it “deader than a doornail” amid opposition from fellow Republicans and the White House. 
  
 Boehner also supported efforts to “get to the bottom” of any potential interactions between Trump associates and the Russian government. However, he described any calls to impeach Trump as the purview of “the crazy left-wing Democratic colleagues of mine.” 
  
 Democratic Representative Al Green has formally introduced articles of impeachment for Trump, but such an effort has not been embraced by most Democratic lawmakers as the investigation continues. ||||| Former House Speaker Boehner: Trump 'Still Learning How to be President'

 Regina Mayor, KPMG’s global sector head and U.S. national sector leader of energy and natural resources, promised no question would be off the table as she introduced former House speaker John Boehner as the luncheon keynote speaker for the KPMG Global Energy Conference May 24. 
  
 She was right. 
  
 For an hour straight, Boehner candidly – and at times, humorously – answered questions about a little bit of everything, from what he thinks of Donald Trump’s first 100 days as president to possibilities of impeachment. 
  
 Boehner resigned from the Congress in October 2015 and is still quite content with his decision today. 
  
 “I wake up every day, drink my morning coffee and say hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah.” 
  
 Still, he has a lot to say about the goings on in the White House. For one, the election of President Trump himself. 
  
 Boehner said he’s been friends with Trump for 15 years, golfed with him and even said if he was having a bad day, Trump would be the first person to call and check on him or offer a pat on the back. 
  
 “But president? I just never envisioned him in that role,” he said and also suggested that Trump not be allowed to tweet overnight. 
  
 Still, when asked what he thinks Trump’s done well in his first 100 days in office, Boehner said he’s done well with international affairs and foreign policy. In regard to national security, international leaders are thrilled to death that Trump is aggressive about fighting ISIS and getting more boots on the ground to do so, he said. 
  
 Boehner said Trump “did what he could” with healthcare, but never subscribed to the idea of ‘repeal, then replace.’ Instead he should have worked to ‘repair’ Obamacare. 
  
 “Everything else he’s done [in office] has been a complete disaster,” said Boehner. “He’s still learning how to be president.” 
  
 Here are more of Boehner’s candid responses on the following: 
  
 Tax Reform “I was a little more optimistic about it early in the year; now my odds are 60/40 … the border adjustment tax is deader than a doornail … tax reform is just a bunch of happy talk.” 
  
 Russia and Impeachment “I don’t know why either of these campaigns (Hillary Clinton or Trump) were talking to Russians, but they need to get to the bottom of this … the crazy left wing Democratic colleagues of mine bringing up impeachment talks … talk of impeachment is the best way to rile up Trump supporters. Remember, impeachment is not a legal process; it’s a political process.” 
  
 Possible Presidential Bid “I don’t want to be president. I drink red wine. I smoke cigarettes. I golf. I cut my own grass. I iron my own clothes. And I’m not willing to give all that up to be president.” 
  
 Being an Optimist “I think Americans are the luckiest people on Earth. We’re the envy of the entire world,” said Boehner before reflecting on his own life. “It’s the only world where you can grow up as the son of a bartender and end up as the Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives.”

 Speaking at an energy conference this week, former House Speaker John Boehner described much of President Trump’s first few months in office as a “complete disaster.” 
  
 “He’s still learning how to be president,” he added. 
  
 A year and half after he resigned from Congress, Boehner is be enjoying his second act as a lobbyist, paid speaker and lawncare expert. When asked if he has any presidential ambitions, he said, “I don’t want to be president. I drink red wine. I smoke cigarettes. I golf. I cut my own grass. I iron my own clothes. And I’m not willing to give all that up to be president.” 
  
 It would probably be a pay cut too. One of the many former politicians to spin through the revolving door to K Street, Boehner now has two different lobbying jobs, even if that’s not what he calls them. One is with the global firm Squire Patton Boggs, which counts Goldman Sachs and the People’s Republic of China among its clients. The firm, which also employs former Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott, calls Boehner a “senior strategic advisor.” He also sits on the board of the tobacco company Reynolds American Inc, a job that reportedly pays $400,00 a year — or the same as being president. 
  
 Despite his harsh critique of Trump, Boehner did find a few things to like in the man whom he said he “never envisioned” in the White House. Trump has done a good job on fighting ISIS, Boehner said, and he “did what he could” to pass a new health-care bill. 
  
 Asked about the swirling controversy surrounding the Trump administration and its relationship with Russia, Boehner said, “They need to get to the bottom of this.” But he cautioned Democrats not to get too excited about removing Trump from office. “Talk of impeachment is the best way to rile up Trump supporters,” he said. |||||
Output:
John Boehner isn't shedding any tears over his decision to resign as speaker of the House in 2015, telling attendees at an energy conference: “I wake up every day, drink my morning coffee and say hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah.” RigZone reports Boehner was keynote speaker for Wednesday's KPMG Global Energy Conference, where he spent an hour answering questions. President Trump, of course, came up. Boehner said that while he's been friends with Trump for years, he "never envisioned him" as president. He complimented Trump on his handing of foreign policy, but added: “Everything else he’s done has been a complete disaster. He’s still learning how to be president.” As for Boehner's possible designs on the office currently held by his old friend: "I drink red wine. I smoke cigarettes. I golf. I cut my own grass. I iron my own clothes. And I’m not willing to give all that up to be president.” New York reports it would also likely be a pay cut for Boehner, who is a lobbyist for Squire Patton Boggs, of which Goldman Sachs and China are clients, and sits on the board of tobacco company Reynolds American. The Reynolds gig alone is said to pay $400,000 a year. Boehner also answered questions on health care, tax reform, and the whole Russia situation. Boehner's spokesperson confirmed his comments regarding Trump, but the White House declined to comment, according to Reuters.
