Not just quitters but LOSERS! That’s the worst insult he can hurl at anyone.

BTW, as y’all know, he just called the Senate “quitters.” When he call them **losers** :eek: game over! I don’t know exactly what that means, but it will be baaaaaad.

Probably a response to one of the twitter-voices inside his head.

No, I think it’s much more likely he’s flinging shit at Bannon in reaction to reviews of [this book](https://www.amazon.com/Devils-Bargain-Bannon-Storming-Presidency/dp/0735225028).

Here’s a good review of the above linked book.

>
> Joshua Green’s new book, Devil’s Bargain, argues that Trumpism is best understood through the president’s partnership with Stephen K. Bannon, now his chief political strategist. Green has been writing about conservatives since the George W. Bush...

Wait a minute. Does that mean he is planning to go full Stalin and unperson Bannon? That would be sweet.

Only the Fake News Media and Trump enemies want me to stop using Social Media (110 million people). Only way for me to get the truth out!

Why do I have the sneaking suspicion that Kelly told him to rein in his tweeting?
