  1. Not sure why blocking someone from hisbl personal feed is against the First ammendment (it’s up to Twitter to make rules for their own, private, platform, if the rules allow someone to block, then anyone can). But it just reminds us how weak Trump is, how he can’t stand the tiniest bit of criticism, just like Obama before him

  2. Gold vanity. The man with too much versus the public with too little.

    Feudal neat time. The Trump show continues. Ringling Brothers never thought ever an act greater. The cool is too cool for words. 140 characters at a time.
