“[An] avalanche of repeated presidential absurdity. The reader realizes that this pattern is not part of the Trump presidency; it is the whole thing.” — Washington Post
“Americans should know that there are adults in the room. . . . And we are trying to do what’s right even when Donald Trump won’t.” —An anonymous senior administrative official in a New York Times op-ed, September 5, 2018
Every president faces criticism and caricature. Donald Trump, however, is unique in that he is routinely characterized in ways more suitable for a toddler. What’s more, it is not just Democrats, pundits, or protestors who compare the president to a child; Trump’s staffers, subordinates, and allies also describe Trump like a badly behaved preschooler.
Daniel W. Drezner began curating every example he could find of a Trump ally describing the president like a toddler. So far, he’s collected more than one thousand tweets. In The Toddler-in-Chief , Drezner draws on these examples to take readers through the different dimensions of Trump’s infantile behavior, from temper tantrums to poor impulse control. How much damage can really be done by a giant man-baby? Quite a lot, Drezner argues, due to the winnowing away of presidential checks and balances over the past fifty years. Drezner also shows the lasting impact the Trump administration will have on American foreign policy and democracy, exhorting the American people to think carefully about the person they elect to be the next commander-in-chief. He also shows how we must rethink the terrifying powers we have given the presidency.
“Occasionally funny . . . also overwhelmingly grim.” — New York Times
“[A] crisp, witty and highly readable philippic.” — New Statesman

Apollo was supposed to be the god of truth and prophecy (among other things).
No irony here, eh?

Have a look around California to show what a cancer they are

just_one_more_chore It isn’t….for prats like yourself. Just like some people think child p0rn0graphy is ‘ok’.
Interesting how anyone can say anything bad about Trump while supporting the fool who is currently in the White house. But you can’t blame the FOOL. But you can blame the ign0rant who support him.

2016-TRUMP will start WW3! Don’t vote for him!
2022-Biden starts WW3

“What about Biden?”
“What about the clintons?”
“What about that time I looked at Obama and I didn’t like that a black man was in charge?”
Shut up.
Get back in your basements to play your banjo and keep prepping.

Propaganda for the simple minded, that are too afraid to use their higher cognitive faculties to actually see what is really happening. This is the kind of dribble that is suited to people who read a news headline and then tell everyone they know about this new thing that is happening… despite the fact they didn’t actually read anything except the headline, let alone do any verification of the content.
You know people like Gooner there who believes that because someone supports Trump they hate black people… because he skimmed a headline once upon a time.
