Yea or Nay on the Madman going on a Twitter spree tomorrow re: Flynn?

He's tried to ignore the story but it won't go away.

Do we get an all-caps "FAKE NEWS!!!!"

Or maybe we get "The Russians have denied it so there's no story!"

Or maybe he continues to ignore it and posts about something stupid like that singer that no one's ever heard of wearing a Trump dress.

he is scared by now. How do you call it FAKE NEWS after the guy resigned? He knows the trail goes straight to his inner circle and the hounds are on the scent and baying at the moon right about now.

Nothing he can do is going to be more entertaining than watching him go down. He does understand the value of entertainment in politics better than almost anyone on the planet. Let's see if he understands that HE is the loser now that he has lost control of the narrative.

I dunno. He could tweet death threats or pictures of his junk. That might get people talking about something else. But probably not going to help his cause, long term.

He'll want to get something out that dominates the news cycle and diverts from the Flynn fiasco.

Waiting for the rest of the Russian dossier to get corroborated, too.

"he lied to me", something along those lines.

There's no "fake news" route for him to go, even among his neanderthal supporters

He'll tweet about how great his day with Trudeau went.
