He thought he’d done his duty by the Goopers by killing Hillary’s chances, so he figured he was safe.

He was wrong. Now he gets to live with knowing he was responsible for putting that POS Cheat-o in the Oval Office — who then fired him in a fit of pique.

He’s screaming at the TV this morning I guess. Why are democrats sad? I’m kind of pissed.

When you’re screwing with undocumented Polish construction workers, or small specialty contractors, you can say anything, get away with doing almost anything. He thinks the same methods will work now.
Let’s see!

Alternative translation: The next guy will kill the Russian story or he’ll get canned too.

I’m pretty confident that reviving the investigations of Hillary’s conduct will be his proof to the base that the legal system has been restored.

Trump has an interview with Lester Holt coming up tomorrow. I’m wondering if the Comey firing is timed for the interview. Trump may have thought this would be a big win. Strange idea, sure, but he has to be thinking about the interview.

He must have seen the front page of the NYTimes over his Eggos — they hit him every which way to Sunday. Just look at the various headlines. “Lying”, “Princeling” “Echoes of Watergate”, “Calls for Independent Investigator, even from G.O.P.”… “Raises Questions about Russian Investigation”.

Funny, I thought the Rump was a prank for about 2 years.

Sure maybe their assumption has been that he would be hailed as a Conquerig Hero! Some Fox viewers are bound to regard it as a brilliant move (and be genuinely surprised when they get tarred and feathered), so whatever!

Haha, yeah I totally thought that one time Donald Trump shoved a knife in my back and twisted it 6 times to make sure I knew it was there was totally a prank. Because it’s just so out of character for Trump to be a callous back-stabbing asshole with poor calculation skills. I had just assumed I was being Punk’d!

For Pete’s sake. You’re firing the FBI Director with a letter, and you don’t even know he’s out of town??

You’re the President. You have the greatest home court advantage in the world - the Oval Office of the White House.

At least have the balls to call the man into your office and hand the damn letter to him yourself.

For a guy who made “you’re fired” a trademark, you really do suck at this.

“When things calm down, they will be thanking me!”

This may be a silly question, but was that a real tweet or a parody tweet? I honestly can’t tell.

It’s real and it’s parody. Trump wants to get the Nobel Prize of Humor*

  • YOU know that and I know it—but does he?
