Trump referred to the judge who stayed his immigrant ban as a “so called judge”. The judge who was nominated by Bush and approved by the Senate 99-0. > ---

I’m waiting for someone to tell him Nordstrom dropped Ivanka 's line. Overrated! ---

And he thinks that because nobody has EVER told him no – not even when he jammed his hand into their crotch. He’s a rich spoiled child who has NEVER been told no.

Trump seems to be losing it a bit on Twitter today. I like how in the middle of his dozen or so tweets railing against the judge’s decision, he reverts, in desperate exhortation, to the magic phrase he came upon, and that he worked like the Pied Piper of Hamelin’s tune, on the simple folk of the land. In ALL CAPS: > [@Trump](#): > > MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! It’s going to be funny watching him come to realize that his advertising slogan is no philosopher’s stone and that his Midas touch is more like the smear of Mr Hankey. Trump is the embodiment of _hubris_ - who would have thought that the greatest of Greek tragedies would be produced in the 21st century! ---

Oh Geez, how many over-the-top tweets has our Clown-in-Chief made in the three days or so that I’ve been away from the Board. Let’s take a look at one of the ones attacking the Washington-state judge: **The opinion of this so-called judge, which essentially takes law-enforcement away from our country, is ridiculous and will be overturned!** “Takes law-enforcement away from our country”??!? :dubious: Is our so-called president under the impression that Washington is a sovereign nation?? ---

It’s really fucking surreal for me to see the president of the US twattering every day all day like a teenager. I actually thought he might cut down on it when he took office. So much for my misplaced optimism. It’s truly a bizarre, bizarre reality we’re living in. ---
