Your guy, my guy. The White House deserves respect.

He doesn't get that, because he's never read a page of history in his entire life.

When GWB, who we all hated, transferred power, he was as respectful to the Obamas as could be done. He respected the institutions and knew we have to do things a certain way.

Trump? Fuck if any of us knows. He thinks it's a projection of power. But, anyone who knows anything sees it as a projection of insecurity.

Ferrets are Cool
