The Christmas Eve grievances billowing from the White House on Monday formed a heavy cloud of Yuletide gloom.
In his third straight day holed up inside the White House during the partial federal government shutdown that he initiated over his demand to construct a border wall, President Trump barked out his frustrations on Twitter: Democrats are hypocrites! The media makes up stories! Senators are wrong on foreign policy and so is Defense Secretary Jim Mattis!
Trump said war-ravaged Syria would be rebuilt not by the United States but by Saudi Arabia. Thanks to Saudi A! he tweeted, two weeks after the Senate unanimously rebuked the kingdoms crown prince for the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
As the stock market closed out its worst December since 1931, the president placed sole blame for the staggering sell-off on the Federal Reserve, likening the central bank to a golfer who cant putt.
That was all before noon. And then, at 12:32 p.m., came Trumps 10th tweet of the day, a plaintive complaint from a president who craves constant interaction and praise:
I am all alone (poor me) in the White House waiting for the Democrats to come back and make a deal on desperately needed Border Security, he wrote.

They can come bearing gifts of handcuffs, tasers and indictments for Trump and his family.
