It's this kind of stuff - today's edition

Continuing a streak of unprecedentedly reckless tweets, the Very Stable Genius let loose with this earlier today:

....I don’t want to Win for myself, I only want to Win for the people. The New is letting millions of GREAT people down! We have to start looking for a new News Outlet. Fox isn’t working for us anymore!
It appears that journalism, like free-market economics and marital fidelity, is one of those things that is beyond his grasp.

I was gratified to see Brit Hume and Guy Benson - so far; perhaps there are others by now - on the case, both chiming in with their own versions of the basic message that the network doesn't exist to push his agenda.

Along with some tweets that gratuitously disparage the government of Puerto Rico - not that it doesn't merit having its corruption pointed out; it's just that, with Dorian breathing down its neck, this is about as inappropriate time as one could pick to get into that - it's been another cringe-worthy day of "presidential" social media blurts.
