Hey, Donald! Let's start off with your _non_irksome tweets of the past few days: two tweets wishing everyone a Merry Christmas. Two of them. Almost as if someone made one for you, and then you made another one (probably the one without the fancy graphic but with many "very"s) on your own.
Where did we go from there?
► President Obama said that he thinks he would have won against me. He should say that but I say NO WAY! – jobs leaving, ISIS, OCare, etc. ¹
Really? Donald? You allow yourself to get baited by questions of whether Obama would have beat you?
You're going to be President of the United States. You really don't need to get into that arguement.
Dude. Really. You need to work on that confidence level.
And, a day later, you were back at it:
► President Obama campaigned hard (and personally) in the very important swing states, and lost.The voters wanted to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! ¹⁰
"See! I beat Obama! I beat him! I beat him! Neener-neener"
Jeez, Donald. This is not normal.

Another thread:
► The world was gloomy before I won – there was no hope. Now the market is up nearly 10% and Christmas spending is over a trillion dollars!
Joy to the World! The Trump is Come!
I mean, really, Donald? The world was "gloomy" but you've brought it light and hope? The market was down this year and then you raised it up?³ Nobody was spending anything on Christmas, and then people spent a whole bunch of money that they wouldn't have spent otherwise?⁴
Are you hitting the egg nog?
A day after that:
► The U.S. Consumer Confidence Index for December surged nearly four points to 113.7, THE HIGHEST LEVEL IN MORE THAN 15 YEARS! Thanks Donald!
You're talking about yourself in the third person again, Donald.
The number¹¹ is about where it was, in fact, just before the bottom fell out of the economy in 2008. Since then, Obama (if we're going to name names) has brought the CCI from around 22 all the way up to its current number.
Are consumers confident under the prospects of your presidency? It certainly seems so. Have you single-handedly raised consumer confidence to a 15-year record? Um … no, not so much.

► The United Nations has such great potential but right now it is just a club for people to get together, talk and have a good time. So sad! ²
I assume this was about the whole UN resolution about Israel thing. Except you don't reference that.
But … what exactly does this tweet mean, Donald? What potential do you see for the UN? What are you looking for beyond an organization where people get together and talk (vs declaring war)? What about programs like UNICEF — are those just talking and having a good time?
What are you trying to tell us?
===
► I gave millions of dollars to DJT Foundation, raised or recieved millions more, ALL of which is given to charity, and media won't report! The DJT Foundation, unlike most foundations, never paid fees, rent, salaries or any expenses. 100% of money goes to wonderful charities! ⁵
Except for the money you used to settle law suits against Trump businesses.⁶ Or all the other self-dealing and other shenanigans regarding the Trump Foundation that came out before the election. And, of course, you haven't really given any substantial amount of your own money since 2006⁷
But you seem very sensitive about it. And determined to change the record about your Foundation. Which you've now announced you're going to close.⁸ Except the New York authorities that are investigating your "wonderful" Foundation, are telling you that you can't until their investigations are over.⁹
Don't worry, Donald. I'm sure that, when the dust settles, we'll all be in a position to appreciate your fabulous Foundation.

³ Yes, it's gone up since early November … almost as it did between February and March this year. Or similar to between June and July. http://www.marketwatch.com/investing/index/djia/charts
⁴ Retail sales appear to be up 4%. In 2015 they were up 3%. In 2014 they were up 4%. In 2013 they were also 4%. So … what? https://nrf.com/resources/consumer-data/holiday-headquarters

So who do you think will make sure Donny has an “accident”? CIA or NSA? Let’s face it, they can’t leave a man who sulks at comedians in charge.
