While you tweet about being home alone in the White House, I sit home today on my birthday, dealing with the reality that my daughter is no longer with me because she was killed in Parkland. Stop whining and fix what you broke.

was a whole list of campaign promises about how he and he alone could get stuff done. Well we are going into New Year 2019 and
we do not have gun control
the stock market is taking this huge plunge
and we do not have a government because this idiot shut it down

Thank You 45 for taking this country and shoving your dick up our ass. I hope you feel good.

is another promise not kept. He'd rather give our country's future away to the very wealthy with massive tax cuts. Meanwhile our electrical grid is older and more susceptible to foreign hacking than ever before. I think that's how the Russians or Chinese will attack our next election, and lo and behold, we'll have another republican in the White House.

he 'values' them. Rather than celebrating his family, he whines. I can only imagine he is a real donald downer.

he would not be "alone" if he was surrounded by his golf buddies and servants at Mara Lardo.

The loss of a child is the worst loss anyone can have. The bare minimum you expect from your President is to share well wishes for your fellow citizens and show empathy to those who have lost loved ones in combat and other tragic situations. We sadly don't have someone capable of that from our current occupant of the oval office. My thoughts are with you Mr. Guttenberg on this lonely Christmas Eve night.

The orange buffoon has no feelings, doesn't read, and when he reads he doesn't understand, I am sure someone had to explain Mattis' letter to him, so anything addressed to him never enters his empty head, and least of all his empty heart.
