Another example of Trump’s pettiness from today: > [@](#): > > @realDonaldTrump > Congratulations! In response to this headline in the DailyCaller: [CNN RATINGS CONTINUE TO PLUMMET TO ALL-YEAR LOW](https://dailycaller.com/2019/04/16/cnn-ratings-plummet-all-year-low/) We have the smallest man (psychologically, hand size, and penis-wise) in the biggest job in the world. ---

CNN is now among the elite including the “failing NYTimes”, “loser Arnold Schwarzenegger”, and… uh… “Nancy”. ---

But then again its Easter so maybe some of them died rose from the dead and then died again. ---

This is our friggin’ president. He’s tweeted twelve times in the last three hours, mostly flogging Fox “News” shows and dumping on the New York Times and CNN. It’s embarrassing. I’m constantly reminded that Republicans pitched fits over “decorum issues” when it came to Obama and tan suits, selfie sticks and coffee cup salutes and how, with their approval of all things Trump, it’s now been proven how absolutely full of shit every last one of them was - like I didn’t know it then. I don’t care if the next Democratic president is filmed smoking pot while jerking off on the American flag, I don’t want to hear shit about character in our politicians from the right ever again. ---

It’s embarrassing. It seems like a mental health issue–if I tweet something enough times, maybe it will become true. It’s like self-medication for his fragile ego with the bonus that the MAGA segment of his base take whatever he says or tweets as gospel (gospel, which is ironic since Trump is the least Christian President we’ve ever had). ---

In an interview on Lawrence O’Donnell last night, Tony Schwartz (co-author of Art of the Deal) commented that Trump’s tweet volume was in direct proportion to the amount of disorder and angst in his life. If that’s the case, the fact that he has tweeted 30 times that day would indicate that the alien voices in his head are putting up a real cacophony — or that he’s realizing more and more that he is truly, in his own term, “fucked.” ---

He lacks the mental capacity to \*realize \*anything, especially anything about himself. Spot-on WRT the alien voices. I just wish the Mother Ship would come back for him and take him away. ---

Big crowd expected, much to talk about. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! > > The Radical Left Democrats, together with their leaders in the Fake News Media, have gone totally insane! I guess that means that the Republican agenda is working. Stay tuned for more! > > In the “old days” if you were President and you had a good economy, you were basically immune from criticism. Remember, “It’s the economy stupid.” Today I have, as President, perhaps the greatest economy in history…and to the Mainstream Media, it means NOTHING. But it will! > > Sorry to say but > @foxandfriends > is by far the best of the morning political shows on television. It rightfully has BY FAR the highest ratings, not even close.

A really bad show with low ratings - and will only get worse. CNN has been a proven and long term ratings and beyond disaster. In fact, it rewarded Chris Cuomo with a now unsuccessful prime time slot, despite his massive failure in the morning. Only on CNN! > > “Harley Davidson has struggled with Tariffs with the EU, currently paying 31%.

> [@Banquet\_Bear](#): > > The current President of the United States of America is fucking nuts. This is fucking scary as shit. Yep. And, more scary is how few people really care one way or the other. People can read what you re-posted, and worse, and think that it’s just normal, or that it’s “truth”, or fail to think about it at all and immediately frame any rational questions to it as an example of “if your side did it you’d be fine” hypocrisy. There are policy reasons I think Trump is a bad president, but his off-the-rails lack of understanding and lack of intellect and lack of rationality and lack of cohesive leadership on any issue whatsoever is what makes him a horrible and dangerous president. ---
