LOL!-Among Trump's complaints about @NBC: "the network's photographs showed him with multiple chins"

He turned then to NBC, saying it's the worst, criticizing its reporters and saying it could not even come up with a flattering picture to broadcast. His complaint: photographs showing him with multiple chins. NBC's Turness replied that wasn't true, saying it was currently using a photograph showing Trump in a very flattering way. Trump also criticized a reporter who he said was in the room, who had moderated a debate but who he had been told was very upset when Clinton lost. Presumably that was a reference to ABC's Martha Raddatz or NBC's Lester Holt.

Because he thinks life is a reality show and only his best side (of which none exist) should be shown?

When do the billboards of his mug go up in every city of every state?

I'm assuming he already wants his face on all money, as well as statues of him everywhere.

Does he want children to begin to their school day with a pledge to their fearless leader?

Fuck him.

informing him that I had named my dick the Ronald Wilson Reagan Memorial Penis; and that he could scratch Fairfax County, VA off his fucking list.

Complexion evened out and airbrushed, orange tone out of hair, a slight touch of grey on one side added.

I think it's already happening.

Can't find a still of it. You can see it at 1:39 minutes in video.

They point out how the 60 minutes piece was normalizing him. They didn't write anything about how that starts with the altered, more flattering picture of him which was shown on-screen after each break.

a) there are no pictures

b) his regime will proceed with altering the Constitution to unrecognizable and which names the Rs as rulers for life and abolish liberalism and the D party.
