1. What the fuck is he talking about?

Hey Donald, you're full of shit!

[emulatorloo]

14. He's sad cuz real news outlets won't talk about his FAKE "achievements".

[moda253]

2. Optimism is an achievement?

Fuck all this time I've been an overachiever. Like my entire life!

[WinkyDink]

19. For Trump, yes!

[world wide wally]

3. He forgot to mention that in 100 days, he has 100 documented lies

[Phoenix61]

4. He really, truly is mentally challenged

You have to wonder if he believes this. I'd feel better if he knew it wasn't true but thought the dips that voted for him would believe it.

[Mr. Ected]

5. Great optimism? Really? We're all shitting our pants right now over North Korea, you asshole

I can't wait for his fake trial to lead to a fake prison sentence that he carries out in a fake cell for 10 fake years to fake life. Eat fake prison food, take fake craps in your fake toilet and watch your fake hair fall out in clumps you traitor.

6. DO NOT QUOTE HIM directly

That's his goal - to get people repeating his words. You're playing into his hands.

See George Lakoff - check out his CNN video with Stelter. I can find it and link it if you like.

8. sorta curious that anything he says is posted on DU nt

[emulatorloo]

16. In order to ridicule him mostly

[WinkyDink]

21. He's the POTUS.

[OliverQ]

24. Not a legitimate one

[emulatorloo]

15. Hard to expose exactly how idiotic he is without quoting his idiotic statements.

Maybe Lakoff will give us a pass on this one.

[sharedvalues]

18. Start with the truth. Then note what he said.

An example here:

"President with no accomplishments tries to distract by blaming media ... Again."

[WinkyDink]

20. He's the POTUS. His words, for good or ill, matter. As he says them.

[sharedvalues]

28. Love you, but this is TOTALLY WRONG. What got us into this mess

US Journalists believe that news reporting means repeating what people say.

Absolutely not. Journalism means reporting the truth. If his words are lies, the news is the LIE, not the WORDS.

UK journalists have known this for decades.
Some US journalists are figuring it out.

David Corn has a great video clip on how modern journalism can't just be reporting what people say. I can't find it. Anyone can help?

7. Yeesh, what a fucking whiny asshole.

n/t

[smirkymonkey]

9. Really?

Really Donald? Just what would those achievements be? Fucking up this country beyond recognition? You consider that an achievement?

[Freethinker65]

10. Here are a few after 100 days

Most days away from D.C. at self owned resorts playing golf
Most nights away from the First Lady?
Most Tweets
Most ego stroking campaign rallies for FUTURE term
Most talks of past campaign race
Most presidential duties delegated to relatives
Most hours watching Fox News
Least hours keeping up with world events
Greater than average "flip-flopping"
Greater than average number of threats to allies
Much greater than average narcissism
...

[Ilsa]

17. Oh, please, tweet that to him! nt

[Docreed2003]

11. Donnie...executive orders do not equal legislation...

[BSdetect]

12. If it really is "fake media" releasing "fake news"

is that not a double negative donny boy?

Congratulations on learning that new word "archaic" that effort must have exhausted your brain cell.

You are archaic.

Now fuck off and die.

[Initech]

13. Shut the fuck up, Donnie.

23. Dude, shooting 19 rounds of golf is not an "accomplishment"

Trying to restart the Korean War is not an "accomplishment."

Neither is expending $150 million worth of missiles without even destroying the damn target, attempting to erase the Obama legacy and failing, naming your son-in-law as your closest advisor, having to fire half your Cabinet for being commie stooges, or being such a fuckwit your wife doesn't want to live with you.

25. How can he look at himself in in a mirror?

Such blatant behavior can not be accepted. The media needs to be at the forefront attacking his lies. The media can not let even one tiny lie from Trump's mouth go unchecked.

[Cartoonist]

27. Are you kidding?

Standing in front of a mirror is his favorite pastime.

[bobGandolf]

29. Bah, ha,ha.....my bad. nt

[exboyfil]

26. Conservatives like to criticize participation ribbons

That is essentially what Trump is asking for in terms of "optimism".

[ProfessorGAC]

30. Let's Look At Fake

An approval rating of under 40% just 6 months after winning a presidential election is not a marker of optimism.

So, if anything is fake, it's this silly tweet.
