A man you can bait with a Tweet

Seriously - at what point does he stop?

Seriously - at what point does he stop?

 

His lunatic supporters love it, and he craves their attention. It won't stop.

I keep telling myself that I'm not going to be surprised anymore.

Then I wake up the next morning......

Ladies & Gentlemen, I introduce to you, the President of the United States:

 

 

If only there was someone in his inner circle who was aware of the dangers of this kind of behavior and could pledge to stop it...

 

 

 

Melania Trump Says She'll Fight Cyber-Bullying as First Lady

 

In a rare campaign speech, Melania Trump said that one of her key issues as First Lady would be to combat cyber-bullying.

 

"Our culture has gotten too mean and too rough, especially to children and teenagers," Trump said Thursday afternoon in Pennsylvania. "It is never OK when a 12-year-old girl or boy is mocked, bullied or attacked … It is absolutely unacceptable when it is done by someone with no name hiding on the internet."

 

"We have to find a better way to talk to each other, to disagree with each other, to respect each other," she continued. "We must find better ways to honor and support the basic goodness of our children, especially in social media. It will be one of the main focuses of my work if I’m privileged enough to become your First Lady."

 

Trump made no allusion to the fact that her husband has engaged in numerous Twitter wars over the course of his campaign and that he's often the instigator of those Internet fights. (For example, in 2015 he referred to Fox News host Megyn Kelly as a "bimbo" and in September he urged his followers to "check out" a nonexistent sex tape of former Miss Universe Alicia Machado.) Her only oblique reference to her husband's numerous campaign controversies came at the beginning of her speech, when she smiled at the crowd and said, "He certainly knows how to shake things up, doesn’t he?"

Don't believe in any of the beautiful faces they employ to sanitize and paper over this brutality. They don't care half as much (if that) about any of the things they profess to.

Bully in Cheif

[BigRedBuster]

I always wonder if he ever reads the responses to his tweets. I have to believe his ego is so huge and he is so insecure that he has to read them.

[NM11046]

i think he does read the first ones - he's been blocking a lot of people lately.

What set him off

Mika on Morning Joe this morning: "Nothing makes a man feel better than making a fake cover of a magazine about himself, lying every day, and destroying the country"

Sometimes I just can't believe that this is where we are as a society.

[BigRedBuster]

The title of this tweet sums up his biggest problem. It's very clear that his press secretary doesn't understand this.

Oh...that's awesome if that really is what set him off.

I suppose so. Is subjecting his immigration agenda to scrutiny a wise thing, though? Probably it's actually better for the Administration if we don't pay attention to what's going on there and focus nonetheless on his (shocking!) spats with cable news faces.

 

Perhaps we're the fools to fall for this.
