Trump infuriated after backing Alabama loser

[spanone]

(CNN)Returning from a high-dollar fundraiser in Manhattan on Tuesday evening, an infuriated President Donald Trump watched aboard Air Force One as Fox News called the Alabama Senate primary for Roy Moore against Trump's favored candidate, Luther Strange.

What ensued was a barrage of angry venting at his political team and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who had consolidated establishment GOP support behind Strange.

Trump, officials and informal advisers say, felt misled by McConnell and his political team, who encouraged him to endorse and campaign for Strange.

Even before Strange's loss on Tuesday, Trump expressed misgivings about getting behind the candidate, who he deemed too "low energy." Trump fretted the endorsement made him appear weak, cowed by an establishment that he'd openly rebuffed during his own campaign.

1. Poor little dotard.

2. when a loser backs a loser, the outcome is pretty predictable.

3. So much winning....

4. Made him appear weak?

Trump's already gone through the floor and into the basement on that one.

10. Yeah, but it's good to remind Trump's supporters

Here's a nice, concrete example of how ineffectual and (dare I say) impotent President Trump is that can be used to taunt his demented followers. Even they can grasp the concept of endorsing a loser, and watching them flail about explaining how Trump wasn't really endorsing Luther Strange is hugely funny.

5. He's got to be total poison

MAGA this, Dumpster.

6. Too f----ing bad, Donald. n/t

7. Trump loses face I suppose, but you know ...

There will be very little if any change in the senate voting pattern between Strange and Moore.

8. Guess the Orange One needs to vent about Bannon's support and push for Moore

saying that Moore was who Trump really needed.

9. He never takes responsibility for his own actions

I very much doubt if McConnell forced or threatened him to endorse Strange. He probably encouraged him to, but Dump takes orders from nobody, least of all McConnell.
