Trump on 2019: 'Calm down and enjoy the ride'

Source: The Hill



BY BRETT SAMUELS - 01/01/19 08:33 AM EST

President Trump on Tuesday issued an all-caps New Year's Day greeting to his followers on social media, and predicted 2019 "will be a fantastic year for those not suffering from Trump derangement syndrome."

Trump, as he did last year, wished a happy New Year to "the haters" and the "fake news media."




The president late Monday shared a video reflecting on his 2018 in which he touted the state of the economy, his negotiations with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and his push for a wall along the southern border.

"So happy New Year, and let’s enjoy the next year, and then we’re going to enjoy the following year, and then we have four more and everything is going to be so beautiful," Trump said.

2019 will be great for those of us not infected by "Trump Derangement Syndrome"!

Ask the new House, or Mueller, or DU.

Finally he speaks truth!

14. I'd like to claim "Trump Derangement Syndrome" for ourselves

in describing his cult followers mental conditions.

What they suffer from (gladly) is their minds being willingly deranged by Trump's own bubble fake reality.

That is what I think of when I ever hear that term.

Sounds like Trump is furiously whispering in America’s ear while covering Her mouth.
