You know, those videos that make you doubt if everything is OK upstairs.
Clearly, things aren’t, and if the video of him ranting about wind turbines causing cancer didn’t sway you, nothing will.
Let’s get to the latest mind-boggling tweet, which he first sent over the weekend. Clearly unimpressed with the reach from round one, he sent the tweet again yesterday.
We know people have joked (some more seriously) about whether or not he would give up power if he lost the 2020 elections, so he’s clearly playing in that.
The thing here, and I can’t stress this enough, is that this man is president:

The video, which was supposedly made by someone described as a ‘pro-Trump meme maker’, was an edit of a real TIME tweet:
The animation you shared is a manipulated version of the Oct. 22, 2018, cover of TIME. Here’s the real one pic.twitter.com/P0WF2nSeNH

It’s all so remarkably immature, which reminds me of the infamous CNN tweet:

I imagine he beat his chest just after tweeting that and said ‘Me, big strong man’ in a gruff voice.
Anyway, last night’s tirade was centred around the fact that the Democratic Presidential Debate’s first night was on the telly.
Terrified of not being the centre of attention, Donald took to Twitter. This response was succinct:
His timing on that wasn’t exactly ideal:
He might, or he might just be incapable of empathy. If this image doesn’t tug at your heartstrings, there’s something wrong with you.
By the way, he was very quick to play the blame game on that front. Here’s Sky News:
Addressing the images, the US president said: “I hate it and I know it could stop immediately if the Democrats change the law. They have to change the laws.
“Then that father, who probably was this wonderful guy, with his daughter – things like that wouldn’t happen.”
You’ll find a fact check on statements like those here.
Then, when NBC experienced a technical glitch, when audio issues plagued moderators Chuck Todd and Rachel Maddow, Donnie lashed out:
That technical breakdown made for awkward viewing, but we must then revisit the most awkward moment in American presidential debate history:
Superb.
Another bumper night of Trump on Twitter.
Oh, can we also take a moment to enjoy this quite epic blunder:
“Then a third assailant burst out of a wardrobe, wearing, a wardrobe.”

Out a wardrobe, wearing a wardrobe? It’s like wardrobe Inception.
Revisiting another so-called scandal from earlier in the week, Trump also went off on a rant about Twitter hiding his tweets, or something like that, including this peach:
“I’ve had so many people come to me” and say, “sir, I can’t join you on Twitter.”
Join me on Twitter, friends!
Given that most of his supporters are boomers who can hardly handle a TV remote (one of the reasons they only watch Fox News), they may well be unaware that you can see Trump’s tweets whenever you please.
Let’s watch him shout about the great injustices he suffers:
