    "I have the best approval ratings anyone ever had. Even better than Kim Jong-Un who has an approval rating of 100%, I have an approval rating of 120%, 150%, 1200%, 20000%. It’s amazing because it’s true. Yesterday I was called by the Nobel committee, they were crying and told me they made the biggest mistake of their lives, they said ‘Mr president, how can we correct our mistake, we are so stupid, we are so dumb’ and I said yes you are, make a new Nobel prize called ‘the best person who ever lived’ and they will and give it to me. Putin called me, Xi called me, they asked me 'Mr president, you are doing so well, you are so amazing, would you like to be president of our countries too, would you be world president? And I said yes. The pope called me, he said God wasn’t worthy anymore, he asked me if the church could replace all instances of Jesus with images of me, and if I would want to be pope pharaoh as I am the only person in the world who is better than God. And I said yes. My approval ratings are ‘one hundred million dollars’ and I’m going to build a laser on the moon, it’s amazing, it’s true. "

    He’s not melting down. This is shit journalism. He’s a fucking troll. He’s giving people exactly what they need.

    Shit to talk about.

    He’s remaining relevant every day people are feeding on his every word. There’s a reason Elvis’ manager sold “I hate Elvis” merchandise.

    He’s cashing in on both sides and it’s keeping him right what he wants to be- rent free in your head.

    I guarantee you he’s not bothered at all but this bullshit. But as long as we are all clicking links, reading articles, and talking/arguing/being happy/being angry about it.

    He wins.

    I am once again begging people to not post headlines that start with “Trump, 79,” that doesn’t end with. Well. You know.

    Trump correctly noted that foreign policy, immigration, and crime are among his stronger topics, as he’s scored a -9.6, -3.7, and even, respectively, per RealClearPolling’s aggregates.

    Next time you see him live in TV, or you read something he just wrote, remember this: That’s him at his best. And he’s never going to be that good again.

    Because he’s noticeably demented, and it’s progressing. He may have good days, and he may have bad days, but what those two types of days have in common is that they’re only going to gets worse.

    He’s already rambling, and sometimes incoherently at that. But the stew he has between his ears will keep degrading to the point where coherence will be a vague memory from his campaign trail.

    Now, that’s the good news.

    The bad news? Stephen Fucking Miller is the de-facto president until 2029 because all know the couch fucker is too chicken shit to invoke the 25th.

      couch fucker is too chicken shit to invoke the 25th.

      same with the GOP. They could end this TOMORROW. See how quick the epstein vote went? We could have a new president by Monday.

      But that would take them caring about their own country more than the stochastic terrorism that would come from such a move.

      I’m not holding my breath. But you’re completely right, he’s sundowning hard - see how he slobbered over the Zorhan visit? it’s because they only remember the last thing they were told; he literally just met the guy and is like “eh he’s a friend! he called me a fascist and that’s ok!”

      tapioca for brains at best.

      remember this: That’s him at his best. And he’s never going to be that good again.

      Each day is better than the next. Also, each day is the sickest he’s ever been.

    Folks, they were definitely the best numbers ever in Donald’s living memory, which has a capacity of 30 seconds.

      I… kind of… feel bad for Baron. Just judging by the photos I’ve seen of him in public functions.

            Rumors are that he was an absolute psychopath on the school yard. His height is the most impressive thing about him.

              If you have time, and no obligation to do so, can you link me to publications describing this rumor about his antics in the school yard?

              How would a reporter or anyone know what he was like in school?

      It depends on which source is posting them. Ideally they come from a representative sampling of the general population. In practice they’re skewed either because of how they field the survey (i.e. calling landlines) or the universe they poll (i.e. Fox News watchers)
