Trump flees White House for the weekend to have 'meetings' with himself

By
Oliver Willis -
June 24, 2019

Trump ran away to Camp David, leaving behind senior advisers and his family while he claimed to be involved in important meetings.

After he bungled dealing with Iran and lied about the proposed military response, Trump escaped to Camp David over the weekend for what he said would be meetings and important work — but there's no evidence that he actually met with anyone or did any work.

When he left the White House on Saturday, Trump told reporters he was going to Camp David for "a series of meetings and calls" so he could "focus on Iran and what's going to come next," CNN's Kaitlan Collins reported on Monday.

"I am at Camp David working on many things, including Iran!" Trump tweeted on Saturday.

But Collins noted that Trump left for the presidential retreat without any senior policy aides, members of the Cabinet, of even White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney.

his royal certitude has been taking a beating and needed a pump up

but it's worrisome because he will be on the phone and no telling who he'll be getting advice and instructions from

who keeps track of such things, Trump also spent time yesterday at the Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, VA.

So yeah, a typical weekend of hard work for the stable genius.

Why isn’t he at his golf club? Could it be that his adoring club members aren’t quite so adoring anymore?

So, do I have this right? He is at Camp David, all alone? That is very out of character. Something must be getting to him. Or else he's having a secret meeting with one of his dictator buddies.

"leaving behind... and his family"

Do they actually live in the WH or are they just visitors now and then?

Perhaps a form of political 'possession?'

I'm with you!

Maybe we need to call in the Congressional House Exorcism (Impeachment) Team.

So where is Hope Hicks, his main 'piece'?

Stormy in town?

Niki Hailey?

Gosh, I do hope it's a medical condition, one a new brain would fix!!!

This was about 10:45 AM. He freaking left early to play what he calls golf (he cheats), I guarantee. I bet the chopper flew directly to his golf course.
