What's the deal with Trump's "Show-and-Tell" theatrics after signing an Executive Order?

[NurseJackie]

I don't recall ever seeing ANY other president doing this.

But... it does present a good opportunity for those with digital skills to engage in some outstanding mockery and ridicule.

[HassleCat]

1. Look, Mommy! I made my name!

[SharonAnn]

27. Exactly, like a toddler showing his "art" work.

[TheBlackAdder]

28. More like, "Look mommy, I made a doodie!"

[Vinca]

2. It's in the script.

[Orsino]

3. To prove how hard he's working for you.

Staffers have probably negotiated a daily half-hour window of desk time, during which he keeps his phone in his pocket and signs whatever they put in front of him.

[blogslut]

4. They are having fun on the twitters with it.

As for BLOTUS, he's a needy camera slave. He thinks this makes him look bigly.

[underpants]

5. He thinks he's reading to preschoolers, showing them the picture on every page

[bettyellen]

6. He's flouting the fact that EOs used to be evil under Obama and yet are great when he does them....

It's also why he's taken two positions on everything - getting people to normalize how he lies to them and they lie to themselves. All part of the mind fuck.

[C_U_L8R]

7. He's like the kid

Who says "look I made a good poopie"

[Va Lefty]

8. "Look what I did! I'm a powerful man! Pay attention to me!"

[malaise]

17. Perfect

[joshcryer]

9. Bush got ridiculued a lot for his memos and orders.

That he was Cheney's puppet. Chavez, an autocrat like Trump, did "death bed orders" and such, where the signature didn't even match up (copy paste job).

Trump is just showing that he's not a puppet. It's basic projection.

Because he most certainly is a puppet.

[malaise]

18. Chave stood up to

Tillerson

[joshcryer]

20. Tillerson will have the last laugh.

With the autocrat in power.

10. Trevor Noah's take on it

19. YouTube video:

[JI7]

12. reality tv

[KewlKat]

13. love the video

[Eleanors38]

14. Telling you he is in charge, and daring you to do somethin' about it.

A big mistake for many liberal-progressives was publicly obsessing on how they are being bullied. Unfortunately, that is a sign of weakness which tRumps and others love to see and hear, and it will guarantee further intensification. The RW is utterly convinced that lib/Dems are weak and easily pushed around. They WILL NOT stop the "bitch-slapping."

[Skidmore]

15. Reality show scripting. nt

[Dem2]

16. He's insane.

Period.

[Cha]

21. That's very appropriate, Jackie... thank you.

[NurseJackie]

22. Another one for you ... even better than the first!

[Cha]

23. LOL Idiot

[wordpix]

24. lololol lmao - Currently Trump holding some kind of black love fest

African Americans from AEI, etc.

[Madam45for2923]

25. He wants/needs adulation.

[2naSalit]

26. Braggadocio...

Likes to boast and "rub your face in it". He gets off on that.

[Turbineguy]

29. It's showtime folks!
