1. The king

Meh.

[hlthe2b]

2. No way in hell he'd know who Ralph Waldo Emerson was, be able to even semi-quote the

attribution, nor string the rest of the text together. I'm sure whoever tweets for him on weekends must be proud.

[milestogo]

9. I think he was quoting Peter Baker of the NYT and thought that

the quote was sympathetic to him.

[CaptYossarian]

17. He didn't write this.

As a malignant narcissist, he'll never refer to himself in the third person. It's "Me-me-me" or "I-I-I". Those are his true feelings. It's the only truth he knows.

He thinks he's the center of the universe. It would be like having an out of body experience to be in the third person (for him).

[tblue37]

30. He is quoting the author of an article. nt

[Me.]

3. Does He Know Who Emerson Is

[CaptYossarian]

22. Only through that Knock-knock joke from his teen years.

An endowed woman walks by:

"Knock-knock"

"Who's there?"

"Emerson"

"Emerson who?"

"Emerson nice boobs."

Yeah, it's only funny to an adolescent mind (like his).

[Eyeball_Kid]

5. Trump even objectifies HIMSELF in order to justify his spoiled-baby act. n/t

[CatMor]

6. That is pretty funny ...

trump probably doesn't even know who Ralph Waldo Emerson was no less read him. This is further proof someone else has been writing his tweets lately.

[malaise]

7. You're still impeached IMPOTUS

Now fuck off!

[Arkansas Granny]

8. I can almost guarantee that Trump did not write that and he has no idea

who Emerson was or said.

[Thomas Hurt]

10. Looks he is quoting Peter Baker quoting Emerson

Still not an original thought enters his head. He can only whine and insult and brag about things others have done.

[Different Drummer]

31. That's because he doesn't do anything himself.

[MontanaMama]

11. Just a couple of things...

The MF thinks he’s a king now and he quotes Emerson? Ummm. No and NO.

Paging Susan Collins to the white courtesy phone...Senator Collins, I don’t think the king has learned jack.

[milestogo]

19. Or maybe he thinks he should have been killed

as it says in the quote.

[MontanaMama]

27. I'm up for trying that out.

[packman]

12. Too bad he didn't read this about Emerson's beliefs

God could best be found by looking inward into one’s own self, one’s own soul, and from such an enlightened self-awareness would in turn come freedom of action and the ability to change one’s world according to the dictates of one’s ideals and conscience. Human spiritual renewal thus proceeds from the individual’s intimate personal experience of his own portion of the divine “oversoul,” which is present in and permeates the entire creation and all living things, and which is accessible if only a person takes the trouble to look for it.

[GoCubsGo]

13. Mentally-deteriorating idiot says what?

[marble falls]

14. Referring to himself in the third person. Crazy as a bedbug.

[Bluepinky]

15. Whether he writes the tweets or someone else writes them for him,

he’s still delusional.
Each tweet is cringeworthy. Ugh.

[democratisphere]

16. Somebody else is doing drumpf's tweets.

[SMC22307]

20. Stop calling him that.

He's not our king and never will be our king, no matter what he thinks he is. He's a public servant, an elected official, and needs to reminded of that every waking hour... perhaps Bloomberg will run some ads.

[Grasswire2]

28. yes, shame on Peter Baker and the NYT

Referring to him in a quote as "king" -- if only a literary allusion -- fluffs his ego.

Must call him weak and so powerless that he has to cheat to get a deal, and have a criminal enterprise prop himup.

[SMC22307]

32. Exactly, enough with the ego-fluffing!

Call him out for being the loser he truly is. Bloomberg's recent tweet about him being a laughed-at carnival barker who squandered an inherited fortune is the way to go, IMO.

[kimbutgar]

21. He didn't write that !

Hope Hicks probably did as I doubt mf45 Has ever heard of Ralph Waldo Emerson in his life.

[CaptYossarian]

23. If he thinks he's king, will he start dressing like 1970s Elvis?

Wait till you see the new hair.

[Shrike47]

24. It's a re-tweet of Peter Baker, not a Trump original. He's too dumb to understand the point.

[mfcorey1]

25. You want us to believe that you know who Ralph Waldo Emerson was! Well, I have land

next to Mar-a-Lago for sale.

[redstatebluegirl]

26. No way he wrote this, it must have been the little Nazi in his office.

[Generic Other]

29. He's stupid enough to think

this is a positive quote about him.

[FormerOstrich]

33. It. Is. A. Threat!

Doesn't matter who put it together for him. He blessed it and the king has spoke.

You go after me then I'll crush you!

Just like any other abuser.
