After whatever happened in Butler, PA, when Trump got to the hospital, the first thing he said to aides was, "How is it playing? How does it look on TV?"

Are those the words of a man who had just survived a real assassination attempt?

The government is shutdown, and millions of Americans are about to go without food and/or medicine because of him.

So what does Donald Trump do? Keeps bragging about his $300,000,000 golden ballroom and throws a Great Gatsby party at his private resort.

He is so stupidly tone-deaf.
😠
"They were careless people, Donald and Melania—they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made."

The courts had to step in and tell Donald Trump to feed the people. Let that sink in.

He was perfectly fine letting millions of Americans go hungry—in the middle of a shutdown that Republicans created.

Do what the judge said, Donald. Release the funds and stop playing with folks’ livelihoods.
Federal judge orders Trump administration to pay SNAP benefits out of contingency fund
The ruling came one day before funding for SNAP, more commonly known as food stamps, was set to lapse.

OK, regardless of source, credit where due: That's a great headline.

15 Republican senators have now joined all 47 members of the Democratic caucus on legislation to extend SNAP benefits during the shutdown.

In all, 62 senators are on this bill.

I say to Majority Leader Thune: Don't let kids go hungry in America. Call a vote on this bill NOW!

I never gossip. Except to save a soul. Or a conversation. So you won't catch me repeating the rumors about JD Vance and Erika Kirk.
Ya love seein' it! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
😳
sure, let him keep the nuclear codes
Trump: I met with, uh... Mr. Toyota. And we had... an amazing... meeting. And I said, 'what's your name?' Toyota. I said, 'you're rich!'

BREAKING: Trump has ordered the National Guard to create “quick reaction” forces nationwide by January to respond to civil unrest within the U.S.

Ask yourself why no other president felt the need to do this.
Sooo good! Well done 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Scott Jennings lies with impunity and real journalists are silenced.

Another pro tip for @cnn.com guests: Remember never to say on air that Scott Jennings is lying on air and that network management is paying him to lie on air when, in fact, he is lying on air as the network pays him to do 🤣
"I hope your beeper doesn't go off."

A year ago today, a racist tried to make a 'joke' about me being killed by Israel. It was the 1st time I've ever walked off of live TV. That night CNN said they'd ban the racist from their air. But in the year since, I myself haven't been invited back on CNN.

Republicans are taking away health care from 15 million Americans.

They are doubling premiums for 20 million.

Now, they are illegally withholding emergency SNAP funding that keeps millions of children from going hungry.

All so they can give $1 trillion in tax breaks to the 1%.

He wants us to riot. Hunger can cause people to do that…
Every $1 invested in SNAP generates $1.80 in economic activity.

It’s not about the money, Trump just wants Americans to go hungry.
