Just now during the press conference for the Haley resignation.
A big announcement.
A big, big one.

(3,259 posts)Trump has no impulse control and makes statements based on what he feels certain people want to hear.
Right now statements like this from him get my hair standing on end. I can truly see him getting behind a podium and saying "we are officially withdrawing from the UN." The reality of the situation and his power to do so matter very little. It would generate more division at home and across the globe.

(5,499 posts)He doesn't make announcements. He self serves. Graham will not give up his sure thing Senate seat to work directly for 45. He is not that stupid.
I do think the big announcement is that Sessions will be "promote" to UN ambassador.
Then he gets a new AG without having to fire anyone.

He's opening a KFC franchise.
He's gay.

(43,184 posts)The last time he did that before one of his little pep rallies was in West Virginia, where the "big announcement" turned out to be an endorsement from the Governor of West Virginia, who was a Republican, then very briefly a Democrat, and then switched back to being a Republican again.
Big whoop.
Actual "big announcements" from him come out of the blue, like a lightning bolt on a sunny day.
