Really seems to me like Trump is unravelling these last few days. Things seem to be growing more and more chaotic in the administration, and his own quotes, tweets, sound bites and video excerpts make less and less sense. Latest unsubstantiated rumor is that Priebus, the shill of shills, almost resigned, and that he is personally holding the administration together at this point. Cue the Deep State conspiracy theories about manipulating the otherwise unelectable Pence into office.

Donald Trump is a big boy who totally knows how to use a pen to write letters.
LOL. He’s just not going to let this die until the entire country admits that his inauguration was the biggest and bestest ever. It’s a fucking freakshow.

What do you do if you are the parks authority? Since such pictures don’t exist?

He became president by shoveling so much bullshit that people couldn’t sort out fact from fiction or anything else. Why would he change his MO now? The crowd size thing is a distraction, whether he knows it or not, and we have much bigger things to worry about.
It turns out that human nature and certain governmental institutions happen to be wired in such a way that occasionally a total sociopath with no regard for the truth or any other human beings can slip through the cracks and attain ridiculous amounts of power.
Yeah, I came to this same conclusion a while ago. While his Tweets may have real world consequences, now that he is president, all of his actions do. Being able to keep tabs on exactly how crazy he is at any given moment is really important as a means of avoiding efforts to normalize him.
More like ~90k votes. She would have won the presidency if she had also won Michigan (and still lost Ohio) where the margin was 10k or so.
Here are the only facts that matter … to Trump.
In Nielsen’s preliminary ratings, President Trump’s interview with ABC News’ David Muir on Wednesday night drew a 1.7 rating in the advertiser-coveted 18-49 demographic and 7.5 million viewers on the whole, winning the night but well short of President Obama’s first primetime interview after taking office in 2009.
Obama’s first primetime interview — as opposed to a televised press conference or late-night talk show appearance — on March 22, 2009 notched a 3.9 rating in the 18-49 demo and drew a total audience of 17.04 million.
Pathetic!
(Variety goes on to give some explanations, but explanations are for losers.)

Trump is exactly as terrible as President as he was over the campaign. I know at the time a lot of people were convinced he was just putting on a show - playing a character - and that’s how they rationalized their support. But I don’t see those people anymore? Everyone has just become a true believer? Sunk cost fallacy? If they acknowledge he actually wasn’t just pretending to be an angry child, they have to acknowledge that they were so incredibly wrong?
He’s pushing hard-right executive orders through like a mofo, though, and Congressional Republicans get to sit back and make him look like the villain. I think there are a lot of Republicans who are probably pretty happy with the current situation.

Apparently the Mexican diplomatic team was literally in the White House, planning the details of the US Mexico meeting, when Trump sent out his tweet about how Mexico should cancel the meeting if they don’t want to pay for the wall
The dollars excused themselves, called their president, and then were told by their government to call it off and leave. And so they did.
Amazingly incompetent foreign diplomacy.

I thought so too!
I say he should keep on tweeting. Let’s us know what’s on his mind. Shows us his television watching schedule and what not. It’s like twitter is that little device tucked firmly but harmlessly on his ear, letting us track his movements and such.
This is for real, isn’t it?

They were standing from the beginning, therefore it was one long standing ovation? WTF?!
Are we watching him become unhinged, or was he always this crazy?
