I have found myself not caring what garbage Trump tweets

I expect him to say something controversial or just plain stupid to piss off the left and have his supporters come back and start a twitter war

I know that this could be dangerous, but I'm in favor of just ignoring him. He's like the senile old grandparent who sits in the room and you just nod and smile at anything they say.

there is still that little thing called the "red button". Although, I'm not sure its actually called that anymore, but you know what I mean.

His tweets are only useful to track the deterioration of his prefrontal cortex.

I think we should all ignore tweets. His purpose is to get attention, like a three-year old's temper tantrum. The only response should be silence. Except when he admits to a felony. Then we should thank him for the helpful information.

He's only talking to his 30 percent. However, those numbers are falling weekly.

The press gets paid to read that stupidity, not me. They can read and try to put it together in some adult content.

give a lot of airtime to his latest twit fit, and I wish the rest of the media would follow suit. They should ban together and demand official press conferences like Drumpf's predecessors. Tweets are great for feeding the 24/7 media beast, but they should refuse to play on his turf.

of an all news blackout.

Came back just in time to hear about the tax scam passing.. trying to learn to be calm.

Unfortunately he's exponentially more dangerous than anyone who's senile.
