"Oh well, I'm President!"-- Trump doesn't respond well to Fox News poll numbers.
- Thread starter andymcc

We already know he doesn't write his tweets. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/16/magazine/dan-scavino-the-secretary-of-offense.html
The fact that Fox News did this, and he saw it, and it's driving him up the wall gives me incalculable joy.
I think the key fact we're all glossing over here is that Shep Smith gave Crooked Hillary the debate questions, and yet we still haven't locked him up as a traitor to our country!
Something I think about once in a while... Trump could have taken his win (such as it was), this huge gift, and gone on to actually try to be president, to be something resembling presidential. He could have listened to advisors, listened to intelligence briefings, taken the advice of experts. Tried to rely on others where he obviously lacked experience and knowledge. He could have gone on to be a garden-variety Republican president. Sure, he'd still be bad, his policies would still be bad, but he could have made different choices and been less than a complete disaster.
But his extreme narcissism, his vanity, his pettiness, his utter aversion to work, his non-existent attention span, his entitlement, his entire personality made this impossible. He didn't listen to experts, he didn't hire qualified people to his staff or nominate them to his cabinet (and the few who seemed qualified didn't last that long), he didn't choose to think before he tweeted or spoke as president. He's continued to be a know-nothing dipshit who thinks that anything less than fawning praise and sycophancy is somehow "fake" or faulty or biased. He's continued to serve his own interests alone, not giving a damn about the country. He's continued to completely ignore the law in serving his own ends, believing either that nothing he does can be illegal, or that he would never get caught.
And worst of all, roughly 30% of the country is just as bad as he is.
I saw the poll on the big TV last night at the gym and I started laughing.
Brett Baier had a look of concern on his face when they were showing the poll numbers, probably knowing Trump would not take kindly.

Yeah, though they meant Matt Gaetz too. My wife hates that chode. Everytime he's on something (or he's on one of those panels), she says she can't stand that fuckboys face. But that's kinda what he is, along with Jim "Gym" Jordan, Trump's fuckboy stans, criminals in their own right that are rallying behind big daddy corrupt shitheel because pieces of shit need to stick together!

It's Gaetz's teeth thatg bug me the most - like an evil Colin Jost.
You can always laugh at his stupidity. It's okay to mock vile people, especially if mockery is the thing that hurts them the most, as is the case with Trump.
It's crazy to know that all of his tweets go into the national archive, like people 200 years from now will be able to read pretty much exactly how Trump's acted, because he's basically recorded all of it.
It's funny that people think Trump knows how to use Twitter. He is yelling at Scavino to tweet when he gets upset at the TV.
Imagine your 90 year old Grandpa attempting to use Twitter. You think Trump has the energy to, let alone the health, to tweet for hours at a time?

Technically only tweets from the official @POTUS account (shared by all presidents) are archived.
Not sure if that includes retweets of his personal account from the @POTUS account.
ONAN is where you go when Fox News isn't blatantly pro-Trump enough for you.
It's true. I'm Canadian, so I realize I don't have as much of a dog in this fight - and perhaps I can't empathize as much with the disillusionment with government (although our own is no example of perfection lately either..) - but I really can't help wonder - every single time I see something new on Trump - how the fuck can anybody still respect/follow this dude. How are polls not showing 100% dissatisfaction etc. - it's crazy to me.
Still everything on the internet is out there forever, so somehow we'll have a record of all his tweets.
He's been squabbling with Fox a little but this year already but this is getting spicy. Hope they both keep turning the heat up on each other.
If you want a general idea of how super far right they are, they reported that Roy Moore won the Alabama special election back in 2017, lol.
Here's something of significance:
I am unable to derive any satisfaction from this meltdown.
It is immensely terrifying and deeply depressing that this is the reality we live in.
