Although he does seem to have stepped it up a notch. Let&#8217;s dive right into the week&#8217;s banquet of crazy.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The Fake News hates me saying that they are the Enemy of the People only because they know it\u2019s TRUE. I am providing a great service by explaining this to the American People. They purposely cause great division &amp; distrust. They can also cause War! They are very dangerous &amp; sick!<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Donald J.

The fake news being Fox News, Breitbart, Alex Jones, National Enquirer, etc. And you&#8217;re projection of blaming the media for the division and distrust that you create is all too obvious. Escalating your rhetoric to assertions that the media <em>&#8220;can cause war&#8221;<\/em> and is <em>&#8220;dangerous and sick&#8221;<\/em>, will only increase the odds for a tragic act of violence directed at journalists who are just doing their jobs.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Fake News reporting, a complete fabrication, that I am concerned about the meeting my wonderful son, Donald, had in Trump Tower. This was a meeting to get information on an opponent, totally legal and done all the time in politics &#8211; and it went nowhere. I did not know about it!<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1026084333315153924?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 5, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>So are you saying that you are <em>not<\/em> concerned about your son? That would be consistent with your narcissistic personality disorder. But nobody expected you to throw your son under the bus by finally conceding that he colluded with Russians to get dirt on Hillary Clinton. Which is absolutely illegal and never done, so far as anyone can tell. What&#8217;s more, it did go somewhere (into your campaign stump speeches and the weak minds of Republican voters), and according to your personal attorney, Michael Cohen, you did know about it.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&#8230;Why aren\u2019t Mueller and the 17 Angry Democrats looking at the meetings concerning the Fake Dossier and all of the lying that went on in the FBI and DOJ? This is the most one sided Witch Hunt in the history of our country. Fortunately, the facts are all coming out, and fast!<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1026086905539174400?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 5, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>First of all, there are a lot more than seventeen angry Democrats. It&#8217;s more like 65 million. But more to the point, there weren&#8217;t any meetings between Democrats and Russians concerning the dossier that has been confirmed in many respects (and none of it has been proven false. <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=38687\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ask Shepard Smith<\/a><\/strong>). But even if there were such meetings, you just got finished saying that it wasn\u2019t illegal for you and your family. But it is illegal for Clinton? And by the way,\u00a0if the witch hunt is one-sided it&#8217;s only because all the witches are cackling from the Republican side. There have already been dozens of indictments and five guilty pleas from amongst your associates.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Too bad a large portion of the Media refuses to report the lies and corruption having to do with the Rigged Witch Hunt &#8211; but that is why we call them FAKE NEWS!<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Donald J.

If they weren&#8217;t you would have to constrain yourself to just the racism and utterly dishonest, self-exalting themes of your presidency. Which for your cult followers would probably be enough.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s it for this edition of the Trump (Not So) Funnies. Well, for the time being. Trump is, once again, at one of his luxurious golf resorts for the weekend. And that&#8217;s where he often goes farthest off the rails.
