He’s [bragging](https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/930346433177378817) about his terrible poll numbers. _One of the most accurate polls last time around. But #FakeNews likes to say we’re in the 30’s. They are wrong. Some people think numbers could be in the 50’s. Together, WE will MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!_ Leaving aside that he is cherry picking the one best outlier poll for him, he is bragging about that outlier poll being at 46%. That is the bar that he is setting for himself. ---

He’s tried several times to rationalize his position but it’s nothing more than the lunatic ravings of a stunted mind. So he resorts to trolling, hoping to come off more clever than he really is. ---

Mea culpa. I allowed it space in my head. But the insane cult of personality he exhibits is a real problem. Words of their Leader don’t matter , actions don’t matter, policy statements don’t matter The only thing which matters is annoying folks on the other side of the aisle and that is horrifying. ---

That is the bar that he is setting for himself. Not to mention “some people” is considered a reliable source. Must be his coterie of ass kissers. ---

I agree that it is horrifying that an adult would base his actions entirely on the pain that those actions cause others. He’s a stunted, twisted little fellow. Responding to him validates something in his bankrupt value system. If you don’t read the post, the poo seems not to have been flung. 😃 ---
