I searched ‘Trump News’ on Bing and ‘duckduckgo’ - results were all very similar (if not exact same) as google’s. Bing seemed to present a couple of ‘[trump.com](http://trump.com)’ items as opposed to just news sources -likely paid keyword adds.

Someone should explain to him how google works. Tell him to type in Casey Anthony. He’ll find there’s no good articles about her because she’s a piece of shit. So when you type Donald Trump…

Sounds pretty accurate to me.

When in history, other than now, has it been possible to achieve fame and fortune by being despicable? It’s quite the achievement…

Doesn’t the algorithm keep track of the sites you visit and prioritize items from those sites? Mine certainly seems to.

Seriously, if you have NO friends, your university failed, your steaks and vodka went out of business, you have four bankruptcies on record, etc…

What good news do you expect to find about yourself if this is your social resumé? Just have someone explain to him that he’s an asshole, so there isn’t any good news. And… it’s not fake either.

I guess he expects the news to be filled every day with “Economy still doing OK (by some measures)”. Kind of like “Franco still dead”.

What Trump is doing is planting the seed in everyone’s mind that Big Tech needs to be regulated somehow. I knew as soon as Alex Jones was banned that this is where we were headed.

Yeah, like somehow Google is missing all those “Trump: Great President or Greatest President?” articles out there.

News is mean to him!

After his, “intelligence brief for toddlers” slideshow; he gets the, “greatest hits fantasy summary from twitter followers and fawning Faux highlights” brief. He lives in a self-serving bubble - aides and ass-kissers but no ass-kickers.

When he searches the whole of his existence, he sees, but can’t comprehend, what goes on outside his little dome world. It’s been his experience since birth. He’s never been called to account for his lies and actions. The press is doing this (to some deferential degree) and he’s incensed. (He should be shocked to introspection - not happening).

Narcissistic neurological disorder and deteriorating mental conditions are an ugly cocktail and the US is bearing the brunt.

Currently, the first few hits on “idiot” are Trump-related (e.g. an “Our Leader, The Idiot” billboard put up in New Jersey).

Pchs, there’s that Caligula guy for example… he just didn’t have Twitter, but I’m picking him simply because he’s the oldest one I can think of; definitely not the only one, nor the only one who, while officially famous for something else, was a nasty piece of shit (with apologies to excrement) no matter how you cut it. Don’t get me started on Juan I of Aragon, Ferdinand of Aragon or Fernando VII of Spain… I don’t even need to go to the neighbors to find despicable rulers galore.

Woah woah woah… lots of Francos still alive! The Generalísimo’s whole tribe of leeching descendants, for starters!

They want to add a Constitutional Amendment that reads, “_All the prescriptions and provisions in this here Constitution shall be subject to our approval_.” And object strenuously that everyone knows who they meant by “_our_”.

What’s funny is he tweets about made up anonymous sources, and tweets about a China hack that was told to the Daily Caller by anonymous sources.

Caligula et al didn’t “achieve fame and fortune” (to quote my earlier post) by being despicable–they achieved fame and fortune by being relatives of previous rulers.

Thus they were made rulers themselves, when the time came. Their despicable conduct may have made them even better known, but they were _already_ rich and famous by virtue of being emperors and kings.

Anyway, I was thinking more of the average Trumpite dreaming of having millions of Friends and/or Followers, and achieving it via despicable posts, than I was thinking of the guy elected President.

It must grate on him each time someone on TV or Twitter correctly notes that Hillary’s server was one of the few in Washington that wasn’t hacked during that era. So when the discomfort rises too high, the result is a brand new lie, gleaned from some CT site or other.

Poor Donald. He’s very very unhappy, and when he’s very, very unhappy, he reaches for his comfort binky (a new lie about Hillary).

Bah. Knowledge is bad for trump. He may understand that. “Big Tech” is sort of a silly way to describe it as Ford and GM and Exxon are “Big Tech”.

But, his followers think cars and energy production is easy and not “Big Tech”. Big Tech are things they don’t understand. They think they know what building cars and creating gasoline involves (they don’t). They are quite sure that the evil internet is spreading false information. They know how to drive a car and burn gas. They don’t understand the internet, and as it’s not generally supporting them, it must be evil.
