or presidential candidate reacting on Twitter to every little thing that annoyed them. That includes George W. Bush. Of course in his case, he didn't know how to write, let alone understand Twitter (remember "the Google"?) But still, even he wasn't as thin-skinned as the Orange Cheeto. Neither was Nixon, he of the enemies list!

to criticism, or to turns of fate that do not head in his direction or favor.

So we know his judgment isn't worth a tinker's damn in the first place, and his shabby judgment is compounded by his selecting the worst Cabinet in history. It's a freakshow list of incompetents and fools.

The Trump transition team's treatment of Romney is almost as low-down and contemptible as Romney's treatment of Seamus many moons ago.

What a hell of a mess.

Since the start of his campaign, anytime something negative about him or positive about his opponents came up in the news, Trump said or did something insane to distract and control the news cycle. He has been doing it for over a year and a half now. One would think the media would stop falling for it.

There's talk all over the media that the Trump team wants you to apologize before you are considered for the Secretary of State gig.

Look closely at the Tweet history of the man who is asking for your apology, and decide if you really, truly want to work for someone like that.
