Trump Has Descended Into ‘Loopy City’ as He Trashes the GOP From Mar-a-Lago: Ex-Adviser

Facts are too trivial for this president

President Donald Trumpwho was unsupported by his former chief of staff, John Kelly, bent over backwards this past weekend and America is hungover. No, the Free World’s Leader’s preferred drug isn’t alcohol, it’s Twitter, and there was no one to cut it off.

The president isn’t watching, he’s tweeting.

From 7:05 a.m. on Saturday morning to 7:35 a.m. on Monday morning, President Trump launched 35 angry, narcissistic, lying, threatening, offensive, and often quick-fire tweets and retweets.

His targets: “Nancy and Cryin ‘Chuck”, also known as Speaker of the House of Representatives and Democratic Leader of the Senate. Then there is “Elizabeth Warren, often referred to by me as Pocahontas,” and “Jeff Bozo,” the editor of the “lobbying newspaper, the Amazon Washington Post.” That would be Senator Elizabeth Warren and Jeff Bezos, the founders of the publicly traded Amazon.com, and separately, privately, the owner of the Washington Post. The two companies are not linked.

However, facts like “Amazon.com doesn’t own the Washington Post” are too trivial for this president, who was confronted with possibly worst news in the Mueller investigation over the weekend.

Trump used the four-week shutdown to distract from the mature Mueller investigation, which many believe is nearing completion.

On Friday, the New York Times announced that the FBI had opened a counterintelligence investigation against the incumbent President of the United States to determine whether he was a Russian spy, a Russian asset, or in any way working for Russia and Vladimir Putin.

On Saturday, the Washington Post reported that Trump had made “exceptional” efforts to cover up his talks with Vladimir Putin. He refused to let note-takers in the room and once when there was a note-taker he took her notes and swore to keep them confidential.

All of this highlights Trump’s Twitter tantrum, like this indecipherable attack on Bezos:

I am sorry to hear the news that Jeff Bozo has been abolished by a competitor whose reporting, to my knowledge, is far more accurate than its lobbying paper, the Amazon Washington Post. Hopefully the paper will soon be placed in better and more responsible hands!

Or these youthful attacks on his archenemy and soon-to-be opponent of the president, Senator Elizabeth Warren:

If Elizabeth Warren, often referred to as Pocahontas by me, had done that Bighorn or Wounded Knee commercial with her husband in full Indian clothes instead of her kitchen, it would have been a blast! pic.twitter.com/D5KWr8EPan

The best line on the Elizabeth Warren beer disaster for her husband is, “Thank you for being here. I am glad you are here. “It’s your house, it should be there!

Or his repeated theme, that is, he’s waiting in the White House for the Democrats to come to the table, which they did – and he kicked them out and stormed out of the room.

I’m in the White House waiting. The Democrats are everywhere except Washington as the people wait to be paid. They’re having fun and don’t even talk!

– Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 13, 2019

I’ve been waiting all weekend. Democrats have to work now. Border must be secured!

Trump gets a lot of his messages from “Fox & Friends”:

“Dems in Puerto Rico as a shutdown on the 24th day.” @ Foxandfriends

– Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 14, 2019

There was this threat too, apparently a quote (who can tell) from alleged white supremacist Pat Buchanan:

… Border will eventually be militarized and defended, or the United States as we know it will cease to exist … And the Americans will not go gently into that good night. Patrick Buchanan. The great people of our country are demanding adequate border security NOW!

– Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 14, 2019

Of course, there are his attacks on migrants that tie them to sexual predators, even though many of them are asylum seekers:

Thousands of illegal aliens who have committed sex crimes against children are currently held in Texas prisons. Most of them came through our southern border. We can easily end this – we need a steel barrier or wall. Walls work! John Jones, Texas Department of Public Safety. @Fox News

– Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 13, 2019

The president also retweeted RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, who has become one of his top protectors.

This tweet is particularly outrageously misleading. Almost all 90% of heroin that “comes from the south of the border” comes through legal ports of entry that are not smuggled by migrants crossing the Rio Grande or climbing a wall.

The Washington Post, Trump’s “favorite” paper, states, “While 90 percent of heroin sold in the US comes from Mexico, virtually everything comes via legal entry requirements.” So a wall won’t change that.

But even here the facts are too trivial for this president.

And the longest-lasting closure of the federal government continues, there is no end in sight.
