In MUCH earlier days he was able to make sense. Now he’s just tap-dancing because he feels like he simply MUST be in the news all the time. King of the headlines.

He’d undoubtedly prefer that to King of the headstones - which is about all I can even minimally come up with in response.

And none of his writers ever will, either.

HOWEVERRRRR… I would like to be around when his writers start having fun with his obituary.

It’ll happen. They’ll deny it and try to keep it hidden. But eventually, I bet, we’ll see some of the secret favorites.

And now that he did, he thinks it's some sort of special knowledge that hardly anybody else knows.

Trump calls them "mouth money".

There's nothing more satisfying after a day of tweeting and deporting brown people than sitting down to a plate of deliciously prepared mouth money.
