Oh, and BTW ... what a fucking embarrassment to our Country this 'tweet' from the Orange Shitgibbon is.
And guess what, Trumpy? Your 'base', the ones that this tweet is meant for, and the only ones who 'appreciate' it? Just so you know ... in the eyes of the Davos crowd, you've 'succeeded' in 'impressing' a fair-sized lot of ... ummmm ... very SLOW ... individuals. That doesn't mean you're impressing THEM ... in the least.

(9,426 posts)His "wife" will not travel with him, he is being investigated for Russian meddling in the last election, his daughter is running the WH with no experience whatsoever. He is about to be a three time loser in marriage. He pays off porn actresses. He is a ruddy faced lard assed repulsive troll. He has a high opinion of himself, but cannot convince others that he is GREAT and WEALTHY. His rein is about to come to a screeching halt, and none too soon.
