Deranged Donald

By Allyson Chiu
April 26 at 5:14 AM

... Whether they are “Crooked,” “Crazy,” “Lyin’” or “Little,” it appears that Trump has made it his personal mission to saddle his numerous rivals over the years with unflattering monikers, seizing any opportunity to deploy the epithets ...

In a series of early-morning tweets, prolific Trump critic George Conway, husband of White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, once again raged against the president. But instead of using Trump’s name, Conway repeatedly called him “Deranged Donald,” seemingly irked by a Washington Post story about the president promoting a widely debunked accusation ...

By late Thursday, the hashtag had been mentioned hundreds of thousands of times ...

They're probably having gut busting guffaws at the White House.

I really don't know anybody that would stick around while their spouse publicly shit talks their boss, especially one they're very close to.

Also most employers would have already shitcanned an employee whose spouse was attacking them on social media which makes it doubly bizarre given Deranged Donald's history of firing people who were a lot closer for less.

Kellyanne also provided unwavering and powerful vocal support for Cruz and against Trump when she was Raphael's hired gun.

KA prostituted herself for money and fame for Cruz and now for Trump.

Her loyalty is for whoever is on top at the moment.

I have exact same feeling; that this is all a ploy and probably to save his wife's reputation after trump. They are so dishonest that I could never trust either of them.

The spouse of one of Trump's most trusted advisers spends his day spanking him on social media.

The only thing more perfect would be for Jared Kushner to start tweeting smack about Donald Trump.

I realize that for many who despise Trump the "enemy of my enemy is my friend" but we need to tread lightly with George Conway.
