Trump Is So Angry, Hr Mostly Just Eats and Watches TV

http://www.newsweek.com/trump-so-angry-he-mostly-just-eats-and-watches-tv-881226

Updated | President Donald Trump is so angry about the FBI’s raid on his personal lawyer Michael Cohen, that he is spending much of time brooding, eating or just watching TV.

The president has openly expressed his frustration with the Monday raid on Cohen. “Attorney–client privilege is dead! ” he tweeted on Tuesday, following up with another message that simply read: “A TOTAL WITCH HUNT!!! ” in a repeat of the language the president has previously used to describe the ongoing probe into possible connections between Russia's interference in the 2016 campaign and the Trump team.

Several people close to the president told The New York Times that Trump had what they described as a “meltdown” over the raid, which was related to Cohen making a $130,000 hush payment to the porn star Stormy Daniels. Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, allegedly had an affair with the president around the time his youngest son, Barron Trump, was born.

Prior to the raid, which renewed concerns over whether Trump would attempt to fire Special Counsel Robert Mueller, the president was reportedly in a bad mood—spending the weekend doing little other than dining at the Trump International Hotel, watching Fox News and bemoaning his lack of support. Two people familiar with the situation told The Times the president had watched a Fox News piece about the so-called “deep state” working to bring him down, pushing him further into a bad mood.

1. Well, eat more

A lot more.

[hatrack]

3. $20 KFC Fill-up Meal, well-done Porterhouse and not two, not three, but FOUR scoops . . .

You'll feel better - and so will we.

[exboyfil]

5. And an after dinner mint

Maybe for him some Tic Tacs.

[thegoose]

11. Oh, yeah!

It's wafer-thin!

[TommyCelt]

62. It's wafer-thin...

[dalton99a]

7. And beautiful cake

[HipChick]

2. Add some double size fries..

no exercise...extra stress and worry

[blogslut]

4. same

sigh

[Botany]

6. History is repeating itself. From wiki

Hitler was in denial about the dire situation and placed his hopes on the units commanded by Waffen-SS General Felix Steiner, the Armeeabteilung Steiner, "Army Detachment Steiner". On 21 April, Hitler ordered Steiner to attack the northern flank of the encircling Soviet salient and ordered the German Ninth Army, south-east of Berlin, to attack northward in a pincer attack. That evening, Red Army tanks reached the outskirts of Berlin. Hitler was told at his afternoon situation conference on 22 April that Steiner's forces had not moved, and he fell into a tearful rage when he realised that the attack was not going to be carried out. He openly declared for the first time the war was lost—and he blamed his generals. Hitler announced that he would stay in Berlin until the end and then shoot himself

[Tommy_Carcetti]

22. I.e., the famous scene from the movie Downfall.

Which has since been the subject of many a fake-subtitled spoof.

[Botany]

23. Cohen was to Trump what Steiner was to Hitler .... a fixer to save the day.

I really can't believe that we got somebody like Trump installed as President
after a republican rigged election coup and the influence of a hostile foreign
power Russia, and America is not up in arms.

BTW one other reason Trump is going all batshit .... the day of the AM raid on
Cohen Mueller had a scheduled "a sit down" w/Trump's lawyers.

[Nitram]

89. " I really can't believe that we got somebody like Trump installed as President after a republican

rigged election coup and the influence of a hostile foreign power Russia, and America is not up in arms."

I suspect the right wing media and GOP fake-news has numbed the electorate to the point they just don't react to reports of scandal, no matter how serious.

[meadowlander]

33. Ala "Hitler finds out the FBI raided his lawyer's offices"

[liberalhistorian]

90. Has that spoof been done yet?

I can't seem to find one yet with a google search, it'd' be a perfect subject. Maybe I'll figure out one myself.

[Kurt V.]

56. I just checked out Downfall

from my library. I'm watching it tonight

[dixiegrrrrl]

81. Watched those vids a lot and did not know who steiner was.

Now I do.

Appears 44.5's Steiner just got arrested. Bet there are some new videos being made as we speak.

[NightWatcher]

8. Quit already and we'll leave you alone.

And by "we" I mean everyone who isn't investigating you and your family for crimes.

[dameatball]

85. Yes, I won't bother you either....:)

[politicaljunkie41910]

9. His Fat Ass has done little more since he's been in office than eat and run his mouth about things

he knows nothing about. He doesn't know shit about running the government and he certainly won't learn anything sitting on his ass watching Fox. If he doesn't want the job, and we don't want him, he should leave and take his ass to Mar-a-lago for good. We won't miss him, and the markets can stabilize themselves without worrying about what stupid shit he's going to tweet next.

[Blue_true]

34. That 63 million Americans thought that idiot could run the country.

Still baffles me. I have read some of the reasons why those people voted as they did, but the evidence for them to vote differently was compelling beyond measure.

[leftieNanner]

49. Oh, Honey

He may think he can spend the rest of his days in Mar-a-Lago, but Eric Schneiderman has different ideas!

I have a happy image of him sitting in a courtroom in an orange jumpsuit and shackles (gotta have shackles) with his hideous comb-over hanging down. And drooling. Lotsa drooling.

[ChazInAz]

87. Amen!

I imagine that he will spend the rest of his unnatural life (May it be short.) in various courtrooms, facing an endless list of criminal charges after he has been hounded out of office.
And, of course, drooling.

[Doitnow]

88. Also lots of sniffing. Don't forget the sniffing.

[Orsino]

10. His weakness and laziness are at war.

As usual, the result is his not knowing what the fuck to do.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

12. This isn't going to be popular here but I worry about him.

He's not eating enough ice cream, cake, fries and double fried shit. I would even encourage to add a couple of those KFC monstrosities, that use chicken patties as buns, a day.........

[hatrack]

15. I think he needs to spend more time at state and county fairs across America . . .

You know, getting back in touch with his core voters . . .

[keithbvadu2]

59. Fried butter

[dhol82]

63. That was my first thought.

[SallyHemmings]

74. Just wow!

[liberalhistorian]

91. And I recommend several sticks a day

of fried butter during his times at fairs and carnivals.

[Baitball Blogger]

17. More powdered sugar on your beignets, Mr. President?

[Neema]

24. Nope. Nope. Nope. I want him healthy enough spend some quality time in jail. Also, if he dies the

GOP will pull one of their "to help the nation heal" stunts in letting everyone involved involved in the GOP crime syndicate off the hook.

[lunasun]

27. I feel like sending a bucket to the house myself

[Blue_true]

37. Plus, he need to go to five scoops of ice cream.

With extra heavy whipped cream on top, drizzled with extra fat bacon bits.

[IronLionZion]

45. He needs to go on a tour of rural America, especially the South and Midwest

fruits and vegetables are for liberal snowflakes and urban elitists. He needs to get back in touch with the heartland where everything is deep fried and double wide with lots of cheese and bacon. He should sample America's finest doughnuts from every state.

And in true American spirit, he should enter competitive eating contests and win since he's such a winner

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

47. I hear triple fried bacon wrapped buttered pork belly corn dogs are the shit. He rally needs

to cut loose and indulge.

[Ilsa]

54. Winner winner chicken dinner! nt

[liberalhistorian]

92. I recommend adding some fried

Big Macs as an appetizer. Many of them. For every meal.

[Ilsa]

51. Two words: Fried butter.

Or fried Oreos:

https://goo.gl/images/zUuX8e

Or fried lobster tail in champagne gravy.

I hope Melania is on board with cooking this crap for him.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

55. Two more words: Hell yeah! nt

[OldHippieChick]

79. Where in the hell did you

read that Melanoma cooks????

[Mopar151]

80. KFC dropped them

Not enuff takers. Just double up on the taters and triple the gravy on a 4 piece meal.

[Polly Hennessey]

13. Yes, sound advice.

Eat more. 🍔🍟🥩🍰

[DUgosh]

14. All that unhealthy eating, worry, stress, and little exercise

I know what those bad habits can do to me .....

[Baitball Blogger]

16. He really should go out and play some golf.

His time out in open spaces will be very limited in the coming future.

[Blue_true]

38. NO!!!! Let him stuff his ugly face. Better for us all. nt

[Nevernose]

18. How is this different than normal?

By all reports, the only variation to this routine is that, on the weekends, he adds golf to this routine.

[NewJeffCT]

20. LOL

you beat me to it - I posted the same thing below

[keithbvadu2]

60. Keeping his campaign promises to golf more and vacation more than Obama

[NewJeffCT]

19. Isn't eating & watching TV his normal day anyhow?

or has he also cut out golf?

[Gothmog]

21. What is new about this?

[librechik]

25. why should he be any different than the rest of us?

Oh, well-- he should be doing it in prison.

[Mr. Ected]

26. Cut the shit. He's not angry. He's terrified.

He's a criminal. He knows it. He knows we know it. He knows Mueller knows it.

So tired of the mischaracterization of his emotional state. He's a rat bastard motherf*cker and he's clearly browning his whities right now.

[RandySF]

28. If I could do that

I wouldn’t be angry.

[blake2012]

29. Trump, try KFC's bowl of shame

I do have to laugh at this guy's food review for the Famous Bowl. He seems really into it.

[Ilsa]

35. Good lord. Mr. chubby fingers took 4 minutes to say he liked it?

The cheese is a bad idea, IMO. That dish must have 900+ calories.

[Lonestarblue]

58. Yuk!

People actually eat that stuff?! It looks disgusting, and I think it might cause the loss of a few brain cells just to look at it.

[GulfCoast66]

77. Honest to god!!

If I were king that thing would be a felony!!

[jalan48]

30. I had a moment of dyslexia and thought it said " farts and watches TV".

[smirkymonkey]

69. He probably does that too.

Can you imagine what the room smells like being inhabited by a 71 year old on a diet of pure fat, grease, carbs and Diet Coke?

[3catwoman3]

70. Well, with all the crap he eats, that verb could likely be inserted between...

"eats," and "watches TV." Or, the present participle form - "Eats and watches TV, while farting."

[Ilsa]

31. I'm going on a Twinkie run. Mailing them to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW...

Might throw in some Hostess chocolate cakes with the white petroleum filling, too.

[IronLionZion]

41. Great idea! Also cosmic brownies offer max calories in a small shipping size

and low cost. From what I've been told from people who go on long outdoor hikes.

[Fritz Walter]

84. Top them off with Hostess Ho-Hos

The mere mention of the word “Ho” might evoke memories of his golden-shower trip to Moscow and drive his BP and pulse over the top.

Has Melania put a DNR sign on his bedroom door, yet?

[Aristus]

32. How is this any different from what he normally does?

[mahatmakanejeeves]

36. and nominates people to the Federal judiciary. NT

[IronLionZion]

39. I'm so happy, I've started eating more vegetables and doing more cardio

because I don't want to end up like him!

[Wounded Bear]

48. I sure as hell want to out-live the asshole...

[IronLionZion]

53. His doctor says he can live to be 200

so we should strive to beat that!

[BlueJac]

40. Loving ever bit of his misery...

His house of Bull Shit is starting to crumble and stink to high heaven! Rats fleeing a bloviated Whale in the cesspool Washington DC.

[Miles Archer]

46. The Ryan thing was a big one

I see it as political posturing, grooming himself for 2020. He got his tax cuts, the BBA comes up for a vote in the House tomorrow so they can gut SS, Medicare and Medicaid to pay for them, Ryan's dream has come true...there's literally noting left for him to do, So what better move than to distance himself from the stench of Trump so that he can make his next move, whether it's a job at Fox, or his "presidential ambitions?"

[kairos12]

42. Moon Pies covered in syrup.

[HockeyMom]

43. Use your Smart Phone and Video Him

Post it on Youtube! Let's see how many Likes it gets.

[cungar2000]

44. Ladies and Gentlemen your president

[IronLionZion]

50. I've lost about 6 pounds since that fatass took office

he really inspires me to lose my appetite for junk food

[Wounded Bear]

52. Wouldn't it be hilarious if we GrubHubbed a few thousand Big Macs to him...

[Sam McGee]

57. Forrest Gump?

Does Trump remind anyone else of Forrest Gump??

On second thought, that's not a fair comparison . . . Forrest was a lot smarter and didn't hate anyone.

[keithbvadu2]

61. How DOES he keep that slim, trim figure of 239 pounds. He better never lose his current doctor.

How DOES he keep that slim, trim figure of 239 pounds.

He better never lose his current doctor.

[Initech]

64. I vote we have the Epic Meal Time guys make him the ultimate Big Mac!

[calimary]

65. Dang!!!

[Dopers_Greed]

66. Let's start a gofundme to send more Big Macs

[Hekate]

67. People will die from this infant's tantrums. He's a spoiled brat with nukes at his command. nt

[Nitram]

68. Good. Maybe he'll choke on a doughnut.

[smirkymonkey]

71. Keep shoveling it in, Fat Boy!

The best thing that could ever happen to this country would be for you to have a massive coronary.

[Marie Marie]

72. Does anybody here remember when he somebody said that he was dieting and eating better.

I remember thinking at the time: Well, this ought to last about a week or two. Eat up Donnie, it's the patriotic thing to do.

[Cha]

73. Hope it's fat greasy fried. That's what I'd expect from a

lazy, narcissistic, blubbering idiot like trump

Better make sure to keep him in pacifiers.

He sure has a bunch of leakers.

[catbyte]

75. Bruce Bartlett nailed it.

I can't believe I'm quoting a Republican, lol.

[IMG][/IMG]

[zentrum]

76. Scary as hell.

He's in the mood for a mean, tantrum, war. The King is feeling "A pres moi, Le Deluge."

[SummerSnow]

78. I heard he has a IV full of buttered caramel chocolate pork fat

[ecstatic]

82. again, it's time for trump to go. He's unfit. Staying in office shouldn't be an option for him

and it wouldn't be in a normally functioning democracy.

On a side note, I'm becoming more disappointed with the way this national nightmare is being covered. The endless reporting on his behind the scenes antics, the ridiculous questions about if he's going to fire Mueller or Rosenstein. Each ridiculous question, each article exposing the crazy is normalizing this shit because nobody is calling for him to step down. And something that has bugged me lately--it was the NYT that introduced the "Mueller Red Line" into the discussion. Since then it has been an endless "entertainment topic" for over a year now, but since when does a president have the right to a "red line" when it comes to the investigation of his crimes? In some ways, it feels like the media is doing trump's bidding. Next they'll ask trump when he's going to send his opponents to camps as if it's something he has every right to do. They have a responsibility to not feed into his bullshit and they're failing. Enough is enough.

[FailureToCommunicate]

83. More BUTTER Mr President?

[Solly Mack]

86. I thought that he was his SOP.

[bucolic_frolic]

93. I suggest cheeseburgers

one every 15 minutes. don't stop.

[spanone]

94. Lots of fries....lard based refried beans....the good stuff

[Cha]

97. And, you could tell

by how he looked today.

I read he looked bad and I saw the pic

[Roland99]

95. And lobs missiles as a distraction

[struggle4progress]

96. $400K salary, $100K for travel, $50,000 for expenses, and $19K for entertainment

so the boob can watch the boob tube
