Why yes DonaldâŚyou couldnât POSSIBLY âdivideâ the states until youâre President. I guess youâve been spending too much time watching reality TV the last 8 years instead of paying attention to the stunts your peeps have been playing in government.
And now Time magazine has picked the person who is ruining America. Itâs too perfect for words.
âI have been lucky enough to be on the cover many times.â
âIâm not president yet. So I didnât do anything to divide.â
Dooonald! Go to your room!. You know you just completed the most divisive, mean-spirited campaign in US history.
Heâll stop tweeting when all the news media become straight-up stenographers that report his every utterance and never question anything he says or does. That would be âfair treatmentâ to him.
Chuck Todd already signed Trumpâs non-disclosure agreement.
Why do idiots always try to set the parameters by which their errors are smoothed over and disappeared?
I told you @TIME Magazine would never pick me as person of the year despite being the big favorite They picked person who is ruining Germany
â Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 9, 2015
Yes they did, in 1938. Alas, he wasnât wearing his Make Germany Great Again hat.
Here he goes again.
No wonder heâs afraid to hold press conferences
âBelieve me, Iâll divide the nation like Yuugly on Jan 20th.â
⌠and I talk about important things.
I was entirely unaware of the significance of SNL. I guess you do learn something new everyday.
Trump added, âIâm cutting out the middle man. Why go through reporters when I can be dishonest and crooked to the American people all by myself?â
âIâm not president yet. So I didnât do anything to divide.â
âBut just wait till I am - you ainât seen nothing yetâ
âTheyâre divided now. I think putting divided is snarky, but again, itâs divided. Iâm not president yet. So I didnât do anything to divide.â
Referring to you as President of the Divided States of America is a reflection of our current polity. The important question is, âWhat do you intend to do about it?â Of course, we know the answer: youâre going to make it worse.
RE: Twitter
âI think I am very restrained, and I talk about important things,â he said.
In the last twenty-four hours (sorry, I have a limited ability to tolerate HO and Twitter) weâve seen:

Masa said he would never do this had we (Trump) not won the election!
Masa (SoftBank) of Japan has agreed to invest $50 billion in the U.S. toward businesses and 50,000 new jobsâŚ
Yeah, really important stuff there, Your Orangeness. In temporal order, a Japanese banker announces an investment in the US. You claim credit for same, but we know about your casual relationship with the truth, so youâll excuse me if I take that claim with a salt mine.
The rest of it is PR puffery. Really, really, important stuff.
It is to weep.
Iâm not president yet.
If enough electors demonstrate that they have both a spine and a conscience, you never will be president.
Donald, your assignment should you accept it is to use divide as many times as you can in a string of sentences.
âWhen you say divided states of America, I didnât divide them,â Trump continued. âTheyâre divided now. I think putting divided is snarky, but again, itâs divided. Iâm not president yet. So I didnât do anything to divide.â
As @thunderclapnewman pointed out, which would also explain the choice of Hitler and dubya but which would still not prevent me from cancelling a subscription if I had one:
Being chosen as POTY is not an honor.
Itâs just a recognition that the person has had a major impact on world affairsâfor good or for ill----during the past year.
Trump is the only logical choice they could have made.
It doesnât make the magazine irrelevant----quite the contrary. It shows that TIME is paying attention to who does what and when.
@stradivarius50t3 Also, unless heâs gotten over Alec Baldwinâs impressions thatâs another bit of important stuff heâs focusing on.
@xpurg8d The Hair and The Heirs with even more Hair, all splendid, all golden. Children of the corn, or a prescription drug ad. You decide.
Oh, I think the nation has earned Trumpâs Presidency.
An asteroid striking Texas would be roughly analogous.
