Clearly the thought of a government shutdown haunts his very soul.
More than 30 minutes passing without most of the country talking about him is what haunts him. For Trump the Super Bowl must be a spectral demon, looming on the horizon, waiting to drain him of his life blood. Aides are probably searching for a way for a pledge of allegiance to Donald to be performed during the pre-game ceremony.
Things could get a little Stormy!
OH NOES! The tweet storm will be something to behold if he can’t celebrate the coronation:
President Donald Trump will not leave for a weekend at his Palm Beach estate unless a government shutdown is averted.
The White House said Friday that Trump will not head to Florida unless a funding bill passes.
Trump was set to leave Friday afternoon and planned to celebrate the one-year anniversary of his inauguration at Mar-a-Lago.
Trump tweeted Friday morning about the Friday night shutdown deadline, suggesting Democrats would be to blame.

Trump: Government Funding Bill past…
Good god, the man is completely illiterate! The bill was passed, not past!
Make him stop, please! I can’t stand it anymore!
Bullshit. The siren call of the 1st tee will overcome any pledge to the contrary.
I think you’re being unfairly hard on the guy. It’s possible he’s work as much as 10 hours this week and clearly needs, and deserves, a long weekend on our dime…
to be fair, his stubby little fingers probably can’t reach across the phone keyboard too well, so this might be a speech to text/ proof reading issue.
Imagine the optics, Trump takes Government plane to his Personal Resort, for a big/lavish celebration celebrating his first year in office. Meanwhile back in DC the Government is shut down, people aren’t getting paid, Congress spends the weekend scrambling trying to work out a deal to fund the Government while GOP Publicly finger points at the Dems for not caving and signing another 1 Month extension.
BTW - I don’t think for a MINUTE that Trump will cancel a big party in his name where people will tell him how great he is, in order to do his JOB! Kelly would have to break Airforce One’s wings and tie Donnie to his chair in the Oval Office to keep him from going to a party where people will praise him (for no reason other than being sycophants)
Donald Trump is what happens when you attempt to turn the Gentleman’s C into the leader of the free world.
GOP: Home of the Whopper (Cheeseburger too)
So much golfin- er, ‘winning’.
Retch.
Run for office- the 2018 elections are 10 months away! And if Trump and Louie Gohmert and Steve King can get elected what’s to stop a qualified candidate?
Become a Precinct Committee Officer, sometimes it’s a Ward officer. You’ll meet with neighborhood Dems and get out the vote. Find good citizens willing to run for office.
Register people to vote. If you need to help people overcome the GOP-led Voter run-around help them do that.
Run for School Board. Make sure Civics is being properly taught. Think a majority of America knows how government works? Just 26% of eligible voters in America voted for Trump and half of eligible voters stayed home last November. Today’s 12-year olds will be voting for President in 8 years.
Run for Mayor, City Council, County Commissioner, Borough Assembly.
Get appointed to your Planning Commission. Know everything going on in your community.
Run for State Legislature or Congress. The next census is in 2020, just a year and a half from now, when we redraw Congressional Districts. And Trump is ALREADY trying to rig the census!
And get rid of GERRYMANDERING! Safe GOP seats gave us such intellectual giants as Louie Gohmert and Steve King. In most cases it’s the state Legislature that draws Congressional boundaries. Make it FAIR, OPEN and HONEST! We can do this!
Overturn Citizens United. Money is NOT speech and Corporations are NOT people- at least not until Texas executes one, and overturn any voter ID laws that are clearly an attempt to disenfranchise the poor and people of color.

You Got To Run!
Oh that’s OK
We’ll just send him a thank you note for his continued support of Democrats in the Mid Term election
His motto: Let them eat cake.
Makes Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho. look like a great President
The only thing really on Trump’s mind today is
(John Kelly really needs to beef up his wardrobe)
Kelly doesn’t drink enough. His glassy-eyed, soulless stare would work a lot better if there were more Bannon in it.
You built this Doomsday Machine, GOP.
Yeah, makes me think of that governor, what’s his name, you know, big fat guy who shut the government down then went to a state park for his summer vacation where his fat ass was photographed lounging in a chair that was closed to everyone else. Those two would get along great!
Say, whatever happened to that guy? You know, what’s his name?
