Comey! Fox & Friends!""},"content":{"rendered":"

I just turn my back for a day,<\/i> Donald, and we've got almost a dozen tweets to go over. Sunday is a day of rest, Donald!<\/p>\n

(As always, tweets reorganized to group similar topics together.)<\/p>\n

===<\/p>\n

► The <\/i><\/b>#FakeNews<\/a><\/i><\/b> MSM doesn't report the great economic news since Election Day. <\/i><\/b>#DOW<\/a><\/i><\/b> up 16%. <\/i><\/b>#NASDAQ<\/a><\/i><\/b> up 19.5%. Drilling & energy sector……way up. Regulations way down. 600,000+ new jobs added. Unemployment down to 4.3%. Business and economic enthusiasm way up- record levels!<\/i><\/b> [1]<\/p>\n

Um … yeah, I'm pretty sure the Mainstream Media has reported on all those things. For example, the Dow and NASDAQ are being paid attention to on, gosh, a daily basis. [7]<\/p>\n

Of course, there's also a case to be made that all that sound and fury, Donald, isn't signifying much of anything, and that your wrap-up across two tweets either indicates trends that were already in action, old news, or misrepresentation of the facts. [8]<\/p>\n

► The Democrats have no message, not on economics, not on taxes, not on jobs, not on failing <\/i><\/b>#Obamacare<\/a><\/i><\/b>. They are only OBSTRUCTIONISTS!<\/i><\/b> [3] <\/p>\n

Given that the GOP's role in the entire last administration was as admitted<\/i> obstructionists, this is a huge belly laugh, Donald.<\/p>\n

► Great numbers on the economy. All of our work, including the passage of many bills & regulation killing Executive Orders, now kicking in!<\/i><\/b> [6]<\/p>\n

It would be great, Donald, if you could actually point to an actual<\/i> "great number on the economy" and point to how "all your work … now kicking in" was responsible. Because otherwise I have to rate this with as much impact as "tastes great" and "less filling."<\/p>\n

===<\/p>\n

► I believe the James Comey leaks will be far more prevalent than anyone ever thought possible. Totally illegal? Very 'cowardly!'<\/i><\/b> [2]<\/p>\n

Oh, Donald — it's always so cute<\/i> when you call people names. And so<\/i> presidential. <\/p>\n

But let me parse this a bit. First, are you implying that James Comey is behind all the leaks in your administration so far? That would be remarkable. <\/p>\n

The question is, do you really believe that, or is it just a way of raising talking points for your Fox & Friends friends to natter about. Maybe if "Judge Nap" agrees with you on the air, all this silly Russia stuff will go away!<\/p>\n

Next, you render a legal judgment, but keep it real(ish) by putting a question mark after it. Have you talked with your lawyer about whether Comey's one admitted leak (or maybe if he did all<\/i> the leaks, which would be so cool, because then you would know that everyone else is loyal, just that non-loyal traitor Comey who you were smart enough to fire, stopping all the leaks that were happening, except it hasn't) is illegal? If only you had, oh, I don't know, a huge department<\/i> that was all about legal stuff and justice<\/i> and all of that — maybe they<\/i> could weigh in here.<\/p>\n

And, finally, "cowardly." Heh. So, when are you going to testify before the Senate under oath, Mr. President?<\/p>\n

You then retweeted some Fox & Friends tweets from last week:<\/p>\n

► "Yesterday's hearings provided zero evidence of collusion between our campaign and the Russians because there wasn't any." -@David_Bossie.<\/i> [4]<\/p>\n

Well, if your former Deputy Campaign Manager says it's true, it must be, right Donald?<\/p>\n

Hey, those hearings also provided zero evidence of wiretapping of your office, Donald. Or of massive voter fraud in the election. Or of where Jimmy Hoffa's body is. I guess those are fake news stories, too!<\/p>\n

► .@GeraldoRivera: Chances of impeachment went from 3% to 0% with Comey's testimony<\/i> [5]<\/p>\n

Well, at least we know a thoroughly objective journalist [9] like Geraldo Rivera backs you, Donald.<\/p>\n

Hey, Geraldo — what are the chances of finding some cool swag in Al Capone's secret vault?<\/p>\n

===<\/p>\n

You and\/or your Social Media Minions also tweeted about …<\/p>\n

… your daughter Ivanka appearing on Fox & Friends this morning (twice).<\/p>\n

(Isn't it interesting, Donald, that Fox & Friends is feeding you so much interesting news, now even crafting tweets perfect for you to retweet … and is then getting all sorts of cool interviews with your daughter, etc.? It's almost like there's a symbiosis going on there. Like they say nice things about you, you say nice things about them, and everyone wins! What could possibly go wrong there?)<\/p>\n
