Was he home alone?

While the cat is away, the mice will play?

He was going crazy (literally) on the twitter machine.

He was talking about the "deep state", putting people in jail, the largeness and quality of his nuclear "button", Pakistan's deceit, etc...

But his twitter game is scaring the shit out of people.

My favorite: "Go fuck yourself. The working white man is the most oppressed person in america!" This guy owns a house, a truck, a motorcycle, and my little sister can't even afford to go to school. Cry me a river old man.

He probably thinks of tweeting as his gift to the public, and his various petty vendettas as far more important than listening to those underlings who keep trying to get him to know things.

saw this coming. Before he ran for potus, he was a twitter addict. I use to think, does the man work at all? Does he sleep at all? On all day and wee hrs of morning. I knew when he said he was a workaholic it was a bogus statement and thought he had an unmedicated mental illness.

And trust me, his employees definitely picked up the slack at trump int’l. While he spent all day tweeting.

Now he's president.

9. I hadn't realized he was a twitter addict before. And I mean "addict" in the literal sense.

When you think of it in addiction terms, the frequent need for a hit (more as with gambling or cocaine than heroin or alcohol), the preoccupation with everything that supports the habit, the need to surround one's self with enablers, avoiding anything that runs counter to the belief that no harm and in fact good is being done...

He's proud of not being an addict like his brother was. He's fooling himself.

I always thought of Trump as an insomniac with a Twitter penchant that fills in dead time during the Rogain, on line school, Cialis and Fox News infomercials

. thinking it's a great thing that this twitter nonsense goes on, because they get it "right from the horse's mouth", I did consider that they misspoke about the body part.

That said, don't these dullards grasp that what they're getting "directly" is made up nonsense? Ok, there's no filtering through the mainstream media, but that's because most of what the MSM does is filter out the made up stuff.

I just feel sorry for all the KFC and pizza drivers who have to deliver his daily truckloads of fat, calories, and sodium.
