Our enemies around the world are delighted this weekend as the US announces reactive, shortsighted, racist policies that will make it much more difficult to find people willing to assist our military or intel communities on vital overseas missions. (The policies are also illegal and immoral.)

The entire press corps should turn around and leave the next time and every time he does this. Their inertia has convinced him it’s ok to be abusive.

I understand the concept of remaining in the background so as not to make yourself a part of the story. However, when the subject *makes* you part of the story, you are now part of the story and should behave accordingly. Like a human.

If Trump were not a rich man who has had people throughout his entire life clean up his messes for him, his narcissism would be so maladaptive. What a horrible person.
Q: Do you plan to attend Sarah's funeral?
TRUMP: I haven't thought about it yet, but it's certainly something I can conceive of. I love West Virginia. You know, I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.

REPORTER: What do the Somalians have to do with this Afghan guy who shot the National Guard members?
