The Los Angeles Times is up with an excellent takedown of Trump:

[kpete]

In Trump’s two tweets, it was unclear whether he was blaming Jones, the steelworkers union or unions in general for the fact that companies were fleeing the country. It was a doubly confused attack because the Donald J. Trump Collection, which is nonunion, has had many shirts produced in Bangladesh and China and suits made in India and China. Moreover, Trump was wrong to suggest that it’s only unionized factories that flee the country. American companies have also closed many nonunion factories — think apparel and furniture — and outsourced those operations.

Trump’s second tweet had an enigmatic phrase: “spend more time working-less time talking.” There, it was ambiguous whether he was referring to the steelworkers union or to unionized workers in general. If he meant the latter, by asserting that Midwestern workers toil too little and talk too much, he was essentially insulting many of the blue-collar workers who voted for him. If Trump was saying the union itself should spend less time talking, that seems to contradict his assertion that the steelworkers hadn’t done enough to save the Carrier plant. To save it, the union presumably would have needed to talk more, not less, with Carrier.

1. Trumpian newspeak: Lie, Distract, Lie, Confuse, Lie, Smear and repeat for the drooling press.

Barnum was far more accurate than I ever imagined.

Fascism Incarnate. Donnito Trumpolini.

2. Our productivity has gone through the roof over the last 40 years and wages remained flat,

yet we are told we make too much? While all of that money from those labors went to the top and CEO pay ballooned, Americans are struggling to make ends meet.

Trump is the Plutocrat President and it is clear now that they intend to firm up the gap between the rich and the rest of us.

7. Thank your for bringin up these facts again

they need to be repeated loud, far and wide.

8. I see slow people. Lots and lots of slow people. I even see naps.

Dirt naps perhaps.

9. response of the...

day in my opinion!!! spot on.

4. I can't watch the news any more

He makes me sick but people singing his praises on MSNBC or CNBC are worse.

[Brainstormy]

5. I agree but what makes me craziest

is the continued assumption that he actually KNOWS WTF he's talking about. That there's intention there. That he's smart like a fox.

11. Their ideology is in the shit can

They think Trump has breathed new life into the same old trickle down bullshit. Plus he's going to allow the religious right to foist their religious beliefs upon us all vis a vis the SCOTUS. So they're going to tolerate Trump, very much like Von Hindenburg tolerated Hitler.

[VOX]

12. And it's obvious to anyone w/a few functioning brain cells that...

Drumpf is flying by the seat of his pants. He hasn't a fucking clue about diplomacy, policy, established procedures, or that he's actually OUR employee (hurts to say that).

The primary indicator that his head is scrambled is all the goddamn tweeting. Incredibly puerile and embarrassing. He's worse than an empty suit; he has no character, no curiosity, no intellect, no soul.

6. spend more time working-less time talking.

Or more time working, less time tweeting??!!!

[SHRED]

10. Viewing tRump and his minions through the lense of logic

Now that's a frustrating proposition!
