Oh, well. Attention to detail is a good thing. And who among us has not been guilty, at one time or another, of pouncing on an error?

Looks like the Dotard in Chief has had plenty of free time this morning to watch Fox & Fiends. It’s been an avalanche of idiotic tweets: We are up to nine so far. I wonder if he has any real work to do today or if this will continue?

Given that his tweets are “official statements” of POTUS, I think he’d consider making them to be real work.

Which is to say, I’m not sure there’s any differentiation in his mind between meeting with a head of state and playing golf with a buddy – he considers anything he does to be the real work of the presidency.

When a child keeps telling you out of the blue that “he didn’t do it, uh uh, nope. I didn’t do nothing”. It’s time to look in his closet. I’m not a parent, but I know that. Sheessss. What a fucking moron.

When “fighting back” consists of firing the guy who’s prosecuting you, that’s pretty much the definition of Obstruction.

Wait . . . so the fake news reports that 91% of news about Trump is negative, which is a lie? So in actuality most news about Trump is positive!

But the media are corrupt and liars, so most of that positive news about Trump is false!

Truly, he has a dizzying intellect.

Won’t matter. Mueller has spent years building up a resistance to idiotcane powder.

He’s trying to trick Trump into giving something away - it’ll work.

So: nothing to see here, all fake news, over exaggeration. But leakers will be drawn and quartered. Gotcha.

(In all honesty, if I was running the White House and an aide made a crass and rude remark that got leaked to the media, I’d be annoyed by the remark and furious about the leak. But I’d be smart enough to present just the opposite to the world. This administration is Not Smart.)

Why don’t they waterboard the WH staff? After all, according to Spanky and his gang, Enhanced Interrogation Techniques are effective, and waterboarding isn’t all that bad, right?

What was on Fox “News” just before that tweet? It could be referring to almost anything.

Hell, it could be an ouroboros tweet claiming that the claim that the Administration has so many scandals is, itself, fake news.

BTW, how can something be both an illegal leak AND untrue?

“…leakers are traitors and cowards, and we will find out who they are!..”

Wait, I though these were top men, the bestest, drained from the swamp, whitest of the white.

Now you’re telling me they are traitors \<even though you don’t understand the word - psst, it’s in the US Constitution and the definition is everywhere) and cowards.
