Maybe Trump was irked by what Macron had to say to Congress?

I heard Trump sealed the roots in cement and dumped it in the Potomac River.
He’s missing the kind of common sense that comes from having to do even a day’s honest work in your life, and I mean work, not just shake down a business counterpart leveraging your (or your daddy’s) connections, or smiling and lying your way through yet another sales pitch. The kind of work where it matters if the hammer actually hits the nail straight, or the truck is lined up with the loading dock, or the slug of type is correctly aligned on the page, or the picture is in frame, or the network card is all the way seated in the slot, or …
None of that. Left on his own, the dude would be every bit as helpless as Chance the Gardener in Being There … just much less likable.

Absolutely. One of the things you learn out in the world is that most real work—let’s take the building trades as an example—involves a ton of problem-solving. The Tayloristic work model in factories and so forth tried to eliminate that, but it’s back with a vengeance now and in things like carpentry it never left. Your carpenter, your electrician, your bricklayer has problems to solve every day. Trump never did. He applies the same two-and-a-half general bullshit concepts his mind can accommodate to every problem he encounters, with obvious results. Bluster! Lie! Flatter! That’s about it, for him. He can con stupid people. To take over the GOP, it was enough. Comey and Putin and the perversions wrought upon the GOP by Gingrich et al. did the rest. Trump has a limited but distinct skill set, but problem-solving isn’t in the box.

Or send the tree immediately to quarantine, plant a different sapling, and then replace it when no one’s paying attention.
Why the WH couldn’t explain the situation is baffling.

When they talked him out of that, he insisted on painting the lavatory fixtures gold to tap into the market of people taking 45-mnute shuttle flights who need to pee and need to do it in luxury.

Well, how could they plant it at all if it was supposed to be isolated? If it carried a plant disease then it would already have contaminated the soil, so uprooting and replanting would not make sense. It had to have been a fake sapling that they “planted.”

The case of the missing tree. We all know what happened to it this said Donald Trump’s fingerprints all over it. He didn’t like with the president had to say about him before Congress and so he had the sapling removed or in the dead of night in his robe he trumped out there on the Southlawn and ripped it out himself and threw it to the side like a piece of trash. And if there is an reappear in that spot you can rest assured it’s not the same tree. He probably is taking a leak in the same hole where the tree was maybe it died because stupid walked out there on the Southlawn and trickle took a late night leak on it and killed it. You are so predictable Donald, you are so evil, you are so filled with hate and revenge you would do something like this because you’re you’re just evil to the core there’s not one ounce of decency or on her anywhere in this man’s body he’s rotten to the core. He’s a traitor to his country and anyone that has supported him or voted for him is in the same league you’re disgusting and your deplorable. I hope by what you’ve done Donald Trump you are cursed by this symbolic meaning by which this tree came to our White House not your White House our White House you loser Trader in chief.
