Blah, Blah, they got it all wrong.
It's OK for entertainment value, like:

Steve Bannon, Trump’s former White House chief strategist, said the president will essentially declare victory,
Probably because he's tired of so much winning.

My guess is that something he was counting on went terribly wrong and ended up verbally delivering what he usually posts overnight on his phone.



In short, he was THE CONQUERING ZERO.

Nice Try, Politico

Now go home and get your shine box!!!
You, too, Orange Caligula.
