No Home Alone for Donny.


Toddler Trump, by Sham.

Toddler Trump, by Sham.

“He saw there was activity, so he didn’t feel like he had to respond,” the former campaign official said. “He sends out these tweets when he feels like people aren’t responding enough for him.”

The in-person touch is also important to keeping Trump from running too hot. One Trump associate said it’s important to show Trump deference and offer him praise and respect, as that will lead him to more often listen. And if Trump becomes obsessed with a grudge, aides need to try and change the subject, friends say. Leaving him alone for several hours can prove damaging, because he consumes too much television and gripes to people outside the White House.

Part of the current problem is Trump is still adjusting to his new circumstances and has plenty of time to stew over negative reviews as he spends time alone in the evenings and early mornings as his wife, Melania Trump, continues living in New York while his youngest son, Barron, finishes the school year.

The above excerpt is from way down in the article at Politico. I just don’t have the heart for more, the stupid today has already been too much to bear, and reading about how the Fucking President of the United States has to be hand fed planted stories from Breitbart, Washington Examiner, Infowars and the Daily Caller so he can feel validated, I, I…just can’t. Jesus Fuck, maybe conservatives ought to start being very concerned over the fact they put a two year old in charge. I suppose we at least know why the Tiny Tyrant is busy picking peoples’ pockets for millions of dollars every month so he can hang out in Florida.

    This is the president… I have no words.

    At no point during the non-stop kid-glove handling throughout the campaign did any of these people think maybe he wasn’t remotely qualified to have access to the nuclear codes?

    Oh, I’m sure some of them did, but they went ahead and did their job anyway. Right now, one of the reasons things are so fucked up is that Trump and his trusted sidekicks demand only loyalists can be given jobs, so cabinet picks aren’t being allowed to choose their own staff, or people they chose are kicked because they don’t pass the vetting -- anyone who has ever said anything critical about Trump? No job for you, no matter if they are supremely qualified for the post or not. Certainly doesn’t say ‘democracy’, does it?
