This morning on Morning Joe, Joe keeps hammering that Trump Lost BIGLY. More seats across the nation, over 367 state representatives, at least 7 pickups of governors (possibly more) plus the House and potentially no pickups for Repubs in the Senate (pending uncalled races and recounts).
I think Joe knows Trump watches it and Joe was openly mocking Trump calling him delusional and unhinged and fearful about the results.
He kept saying "BIGGEST LOST SINCE NIXON" and bringing up Watergate as the reason there and correlating it with Trump.
It was a good cup of Joe this morning.

(17,276 posts)Somehow he thinks that he is supposed to be popular with them, no matter how he treats them. Like a monarch, always getting deference no matter what.
Remember he has always received deference because of his monied family. He could be rude or say ignorant things and there would be no consequences. Assumed the Presidency would be more of the same. He has never had to earn any good treatment--it just came to him because of the money. He's not about to start now.
The only time he is deferential is when he's up against higher powers like other heads of state. Then, because of his poor social skills, he just kisses up and flatters.
With this kind of person, there is no ability to get along on an equal footing. It's either they are the boss or they are the servant.

(65,010 posts)Then won't answer questions he doesn't like, then when pressed has a minion try to grab the mike, then has a press secretary post a doctored video to prove the reporter is the bad guy?
And he thinks he should be popular with the press?
What a dolt.
