I got it. But it’s a bit of a reach. If they bail, it could go atomic.

Put a bunch of homeless people in Nationals jerseys and send them to the White House. CFSG won’t know the difference, and they’ll get a hamberder out of the deal.

He praises dictators, scorns our traditional allies.

More than half of his tweets attack someone or something.

He praises one person – himself.

The number of his tweets has been rising during his time in office. He’s now up to over 250 tweets a day (!)

More than half of the attack tweets take place between 6 and 10 AM, when he has no advisors present (I like to thin of him as being “unsupervised”)

He also LOVES Conspiracy Theories.

If each tweet takes 2-ish minutes, that’s 8+ hours a day. If each one takes 3 minutes, that’s 12+ hours a day. Who knew presidentin’ would be so time-consuming!

Per the article, it’s 250 _per week_. Which is still a ridiculous amount for someone who is supposedly managing the affairs of an entire country, and/or fitting in a round or two of golf most weekends.

If one really wants to argue that some media outlet or other is an Enemy of the People, one need look no further than _Fox and Friends_.

Um, the article states that he’s tweeted 11,000 times since his inauguration day, January 20, 2017. That was just over 1,000 days ago (I know, it seems a lot longer.) My rudimentary math skills show that he’s averaging about 11 tweets per day.
