Reading Trump's tweets - are we sure the US is not being punked?

[bmpbmp]

I've had my eyes open for the last several months, and I know how disastrous Trump is. But my mind simply can't accept an soon-to-be POTUS handling himself this way.

".@CNN is so embarrassed by their total (100%) support of Hillary Clinton, and yet her loss in a landslide, that they don't know what to do."

"@sdcritic: @HighonHillcrest @jeffzeleny @CNN There is NO QUESTION THAT #voterfraud did take place, and in favor of #CorruptHillary !"

1. We need to accept that

1. Trump is unstable, thin-skinned and willing to lash out when provoked.

2. Trump only surrounds himself with those who validate his feelings.

3. According to his biographer, Trump raised his own kids to worship the ground he walks on.

4. Trump sleeps VERY little.

5. Will use every lever of government available to settle scores.

6. We're fucked.

2. You would think so. I keep wondering when I'll wake up from this nightmare.

There's no excuse for supporting Trump, easily the most atrocious candidate in modern times, yet we must accept that tens of millions of people saw fit to vote for him.

3. Being punked? Sure feels like it. I wish.

Punked...>Funked...>Fucked. What a difference 2 little letters make.

And the big question has morphed from, "Who do you want answering that 3 AM phone call," to, "What rational person is sending out attack tweets at 3 AM?"

4. Paul Begala said on CNN we are being punked

Trump comes up with this stuff whenever something serious about him is brought up. New York Times writes about Trump's conflict of interest, next day Trump tweets out a whopper. So what does the media cover? The detailed and devastating New York Times story or the stupid lie? Media has to learn not to go for the shiny toy every time.

5. That's the MO

but the media are in collusion. Don't forget, there are five entities on the planet who control what we see and hear on the teevee, radio and much of what is online.
