Calling candidates on stage for his handshake and obligatory endorsement, then shooed off the stage for the headline Trump Show. I want the country to see what people in attendance who believe in Trump really look like. It is sickening.

The unseen paid cheerleaders in the back of the hall instigated the applause and rallying cries. FAKE NEWS.

It's sorta like when your mother would send you out to play so she could get some housework done.

Any actions he's taken as president have been monumental fuck ups. He might as well spend all his time campaigning. Maybe he'll be preoccupied enough to not cause any major trouble for a while. Doubtful, but one can hope.

another 25% will be tweeting.

that leaves 25% for eating, mugging the camera and holding self aggrandizing rallies.

just where will he find the time?
