Donald Trump’s Presidential oath was administered by Chief Justice John Roberts on January 20, 2017 at 11:47 ET.
He has been president for:

362 days, 22 hours, 58 minutes

Today is January 18, 2018. At 11:47 ET today Trump will have completed 363 days in office.

It just seems longer.

Perhaps if the Republicans in Congress had all gotten perfect scores on a simple cognitive test, lowered their BMI by self-reporting height & weight, and exercised more getting on and off golf carts, then they would know what Trump means about and be able to keep up with the continuous changes in his policy positions. Not, like, smart enough and not enough energy. Sad.

All in accordance with Special Relativity. Because they are hurtling into political oblivion at 99% the speed of light, while we proceed with the deliberate speed of social evolution. All the Democrats need to do is resist the temptation to get too far ahead of ourselves.

Trump says he does not want a shut-down … in reality he lusts for a trainwreck

and he hungers for a display of the laws of physics
“An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion”

In this case he will delight in things being brought to a disastrous disorganized halt - and he will then become an even greater maniacal asshole obstructing things from getting started again - he - and/or some group of lunatics advising him - believe that it will be possible for him to very specifically define how thing get put back on track - or they don’t get restarted at all. - if it is hard to get a majority to do anything - it will be impossible to override a veto.

Is this just a desperate ploy to avoid the State of the Union address ?

“Excellent health”—if that’s the Dorian Grey portrait on the wall, where is the healthy, vibrant Trump?

I want the shutdown just to see how ball lickers like Fox & Friends and senators Cotton and Perdue spin out Trump traveling on Air Force 1 to play golf during a government shutdown…

That’s good because you just know that one day one of the headline writers is eventually going to write “Trump Sews Chaos”.

The “s” hole in Trump’s pants gets bigger the closer Mueller gets.

If you didn’t know any better, you might take it as an act of sabotage by a compromised President acting as the agent of a hostile foreign power

And he issued a new demand for funding for “the wall” in his Thursday morning tweetstorm as well… [Trump Tweet:] "The Wall will be paid for, directly or indirectly, or through longer term reimbursement, by Mexico, which has a ridiculous $71 billion dollar trade surplus with the U.S. "

I think Cameron is misinterpreting this Tweet in a pretty major way. Trump is not demanding a Mexican pay-for provision in this bill or any wall funding bill. He’s just, once again, claiming that the Mexican funding will happen – somehow, someday, don’t worry about how or when – and signaling to his supporters that the Trumpolitically corrrect position at this time is to ignore the fact that the actual funding request, right now, here in the real world, would come from U.S. taxpayers.

What leads you to that conclusion ? He holds idiotic beliefs about immigrants, he works as Chief of Staff for an idiot, he made himself look like an idiot critizing Congress woman Frederica Wilson ? His army career just shows, he is a highly-functioning idiot.

"Trump Sows"

Hey, I know you fucking libtards despise our great and glorious and Einstein IQ-possessing President Trump, but must you resort to calling the First Lady, and Trump’s ex-wives, and his former porn star girlfriends, and the other women who were more than willing to submit to his God-given crotch-grabbing rights, a derogatory term for a female pig?

With Trump it’s the reverse. The portrait is looking better every day.

[maybe soon it’ll start to resemble his predecessor]
