Trump in "low mood" after 1 week without "hearing the applause and adulation that he craves"

[Miles Archer]

Following Donald Trump’s surprising firing of FBI Director James Comey, the atmosphere in the White House grew “dejected” as staffers attempted to figure out how to handle the increasingly angry president

According to CNN’s White House sources (who all spoke on conditions of anonymity), Trump has been “increasingly isolated and agitated” without any public appearances in a week.

Before traveling to the evangelical Liberty University on Saturday to deliver a commencement speech, Trump reportedly hadn’t left the White House since last Sunday. Internal sources said the president’s mood had been low due to “going a full week without hearing the applause and adulation” that he craves.

Reports of the president’s impatience and apparent difficult nature have become a regular part of the White House leak economy, and the post-Comey leaks provide all the more evidence of the president’s personality.

1. Somebody coddle him, pronto!

[MFM008]

3. Or

Cattle prod him.

[bermudat]

5. Where's his wife?

[JenniferJuniper]

8. Shouldn't she and the young son be moving to DC

in a few weeks when school lets out?

Shall we take bets on that one?

[Scarsdale]

28. Maybe

the idea of Mrs. tRump and son moving in are what gets him down? It is SO obvious that their marriage was over long ago. Marry for money and live in misery.

14. Where is Ivanka?

I thought that was her job.

[jmowreader]

21. And "wringing his 42-inch neck" does not count

[world wide wally]

2. Has he completely given up on showing his face in NYC or has Melania changed the locks?

[bettyellen]

32. I hope he never comes back!

[Salviati]

4. #ProfoundlyInsecure

He needs the continuous roar of praise to drown out the howling void within himself.

[dalton99a]

6. Make a tape and play it 24/7 in the Oval Office VCR

so he can watch people clapping and applauding and chanting his name 24/7

[NastyRiffraff]

7. What a spoiled brat

And it's not just that he's gone a week without the "applause and adulation." Nothing is ever enough. The White House isn't gold enough, the crowds aren't big enough, his staff isn't smart enough.

It was supposed to be different. The Leader of the Free World! Such power at his disposal! He would be able to do what he wanted, order whatever came into his head and people would have to obey!

And now, reality, as much as he is able to see it, comes roaring in. He cowers and trembles in the face of it.

[brer cat]

12. I agree, Nasty.

Who knew there were limits to the President's power?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

9. I guess we can expect another "rally" pretty soon, somewhere.

[Vinca]

10. A fat orangutan in a gilded cage.

[neeksgeek]

11. Oh boo hoo

[barbtries]

13. this was all entirely predictable

that's what drives me apeshit.

[Hekate]

15. He is one sick mfer

[BlueJac]

16. Can't get any lower than Trump!!!

Asshole in charge, for now!

[spiderpig]

17. This man is deranged.

Somebody do something before we all face the consequences.

[TeamPooka]

18. Surely the Russians officials must have given him applause and adulation.

I guess it got lost in translation.

[tenorly]

19. Cheeto should learn to get used to that.

He won't get much applause in solitary.

[gay texan]

20. Oh you poor narcissistic little asshole..... n/t

[Hulk]

22. I really hope he is miserable!

He deserves all of the misery coming his way. For this small, pompous, self centered and greedy son-of-a-bitch has taken a fledgling nation and made us the butt of loathing and ridicule to the rest of the world.

And every day this clown has the neocon republican hand shoved up his ass, they steal and pilfer away what should be the future of this nation for the common man and woman.

I sincerely hope hell is a reality for this filth and all the rest of those who sold their souls to the devil.

[Ilsa]

23. What a Freak.

I thought it was melania's and Ivanka's job to bust his ego.

[Jack-o-Lantern]

24. He belongs in a cage... asshole.

[MedusaX]

25. Boo fucking hoo.... who knew that as POTUS you still actually have to do something WORTHY of praise

And adulation in order to receive praise/ applause & adulation....

Unfortunately, dick-tater donnie can't bring himself to do anything that might actually benefit society....

In response to the resulting absence of adoring fans screaming his name ....
he chooses to "just show them" by fucking with critically important issues like
healthcare, nuclear warfare, free trade, National Security, Immigration, etc.

It would be nice if someone would finally tell him point blank.. straight up
just what a fucking cry-baby, spoiled brat, self absorbed, punk-ass m-fukker he really is...

I'd gladly volunteer for that job...

[Still In Wisconsin]

26. What a poor widdle snowflake.

Someone get him a sucker.

[cstanleytech]

27. Sure his mood hasnt been down because Jared grounded him from going to Mar-a-Lago until

he actually does some work as President?

[Scarsdale]

31. Mar A Lago

is closed for the season, they say. Too humid there now. Where is Ivanak, to give him a lap dance? That might cheer him up for a few minutes.

[lunatica]

29. I imagine he must have been a tyrant as a father and husband

I've always thought his sons are scared of him on many levels. He probably calls them weak and losers and disloyal at the drop of a hat. His relationship with Ivanka, whatever that is, sure hasn't brought her out to defend him in the last week either. Melania doesn't live with him in the White House and it doesn't seem he has much contact with his son Baron.

If you love your father, wouldn't you have more of a relationship? Especially if he's having a really hard time?

[Eugene]

30. Just four months on the job. How long before he goes full-on Nixon?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

33. Oh hell, THAT would be an improvement!

[underpants]

34. Amateur HOUR/clown car
