Trump: "So we made a deal with Canada."

Hoping nobody among his future employers will recognize him.

When the connection was finally made, I half expected to hear, "Para espanol, marque dos," with Trump looking up, baffled.

Looking like the Impostor-in-Chief he truly is. Can't even operate his own phone. Maybe McCain is wreaking revenge from beyond the veil. If so? Good one on him.

Ugh!

I and I alone am the Big Cheese. So look at me. Pay no attention to that guy who just died.

Disgusting. Did anyone notice the thinly disguised contempt in his voice as the staff tried to get the connection working?? tRumpy not happy and when tRumpy not happy no one is happy.
