  1. Of course, he does. Because EVERYTHING is all about Donnie. Over on MSNBC Hugh Hewitt is saying it’s all GOOD that Trump makes it about himself because ‘90 percent of US citizens’ are tired of how hard this country is on Trump. I’m now watching a rerun of the Memorial Day concert. I’m really tired of the sht of the media who try and curry favor with these grifting aholes.

  2. Just sickening. Pathological. I just don’t understand how people don’t see that he’s mentally ill.

  3. Damned good question, but I fear it’s one without an answer.

  4. Fuck you, you draft dodging piece of shit. Just fuck you.

  5. The very first clue that this tweet is inappropriate is its first word: “Happy” is not how one should describe a day honoring those who fought and died in service to this nation.

    Then, yes–it goes downhill from there.
