@woke From border to border,
And sea to shining sea,
Whatever Trump touches,
Gets worse than it used to be.

@chrissyteigen Nailed it, Crissy. He's a true PAB.

@ja_mott @washingtonpost Can his remarks come from a contusion? Confusion? Illusion? Who the hell knows?

@TruthToSurvive @washingtonpost Because he's the "chosen" one. Can we please choose someone else?I

@JoyceSchneider1 If you mean a safety, such as on semi-automatic weapons. I read there was one revolver made long ago that had some form of safety. I never saw a photo of it, and I have no idea how it worked. But on other revolvers, there's no safety. The latch on the side is a cylinder release.

As President Trump's most recent former Communications Director, Bill Shine, and his predecessors have learned, you simply can't "shine" poop. It's an impossible job.

https://t.co/nHoCpOUewC Trump, please have someone read you the recent U.N. Climate Change report. Listen to it. Don't go to sleep. Have someone explain it to you. This is the biggest and most pressing problem in the world. Do something to make it better, not worse, for once.

Senator John McCain says he wants to be remembered as someone who served his country. Wouldn't it be great if Trump would try to serve his country instead of just trying to aggrandize and protect himself? Total loser. Sad. #nowitchhunt

@HankPRyan @LisaScottoline @sharilapena @SandraBrown_NYT @FionaJDavis @realsandiejones @SlaughterKarin Good for you and the others. Congrats.

@MarkWarner @rodriguez_linda And who would know better than Trumpy? Oh, how about every one of our intelligence and law enforcement agencies.

@WriteNowCoach Yes, they're more effective in their absence. Sort of like the overuse of those flowery, gorgeous and fantastic adjectives that string together so wonderfully. Here's to strong writing.

Dear Mr. Trump: Another meeting with Putin? Really? Why not schedule a get together with the head of a country that likes and supports America? Oh . . . right. Well, damn. #screwRussia

@SteveSchmidtSES You're a wise and courageous man,, Steve. Unfortunately, too many people are not willing to face what's really happening in our government now and admit that they bought into false and empty promises and backed a man who should not be in any position of power. Good for you.

Deft definitions: cray cray - Trump meets with Kim Jong un.

Best definition for a stable genius is a person who excels at shoveling horse manure out of the stalls, but who isn't fit mentally for doing anything else.

Be Careful What You Ask For (a poem) Seems it's the season to gloat without reason; for lying and cheating, criticizing and tweeting. Before it's all through, we'll be bluer than blue, unless we find a reason to oust him for treason.

@SteveMartinToGo But would't the table of contents take a lifetime to read?
