I think its more accurate to refer to him as "the" president. He surely isn't my president, and I'd wager most here think the same way.

there is an excellent article in the current issue of Harper's that talks about how he understands how to manipulate people, and how thoroughly he "gets" using social media to do so.

He said some other things that implied that. But he never said exactly that. (NOte that there is no citation to the qute.)

You can find what he did say in this (and other) articles.

There is nothing and no one that could hold him accountable for saying that 5 years ago.

illustrations of his hypocrisy are utterly toothless with Trump, with GOP Senators, with GOP media, with GOP voters.

A broken, impotent Federal Government is WHAT THEY WANT.
