I've never responded to any of his dumbass tweets, but for some reason this one really triggered me, so I did. It boggles my mind that there are people who think this is at all befitting the position of "president".

We could try going the other way and not continue elevating the Presidency to something approaching Ultra-Imperial status. There's a reason the title chosen was merely "president" versus something more regal or all encompassing.

I don’t think recognizing that the president saying these words puts him on the level of emperor.

"We had tremendous crowds everywhere. From 6:30 in the morning until midnight the turnout was phenomenal. The news jerks didn't know what to make of it--so they just lied about it!" - Harry S Truman, about his whistlestop tour in 1948.

If he had twitter he probably would have live tweeted the whole thing, especially considering the way he ran his closed "press conferences" that almost always required him to order things he just said off the record or have his office issue a clarification contradicting him immediately after.

You shouldn't take the class' desperate obsession with the President's every single utterance as an accurate depiction of his use-value or singular relevance.

This is their world:

Quote

To my surprise, an acquaintance soon pointed out to me that Sayoc is likely the same man who made a death threat against me on Facebook in April of last year. After I did an interview on Fox News about the ways in which public ignorance contributes to opposition to immigration, a person using the name "Cesar Altieri Randazzo" made multiple comments on one of my FB posts, threatening to kill me and my family, and feed the bodies to Florida alligators. The comments even included multiple pictures of alligators

...

The authorities have now connected the Randazzo Facebook account to Sayoc. And his threats against me were very similar to ones he made on Twitter against political commentator Rochelle Ritchie. In both cases, for example, he claimed to to be a member of the "unconquered Seminole Nation."

Quote

The night before an army of law enforcement swooped in and charged him with being a serial mail bomber, Cesar Sayoc Jr. was in his element, working as a DJ in one of South Florida’s strip joints.

Sayoc had been manning the door and spinning tunes at Ultra, a “boutique gentlemen’s club” with decidedly mixed online reviews, for the last two months. Thursday was his day off, but he was filling in for another DJ, Scott Meigs.

Meigs, who has worked the club circuit with Sayoc for nearly 20 years

...

a muscle-bound gym rat once busted for possession of steroids. He falsely claimed to be a member of the Seminole tribe and spouted what an ex-boss described as white supremacist views. His father abandoned him as a child and his mother thought he needed psychological help.

...

Ultra’s manager, Stacy Saccal, said she was stunned by news of Sayoc’s arrest.

“He was a super-nice guy,” she said. “The customers loved him. He would play jokes and pranks on people. He made us laugh all the time.”

Quote

Until recently, the Filipino-Italian event promoter had a narrow set of interests: bodybuilding, exotic dancing, and the Seminole tribe of Florida.
...
When Lowy first met him, Sayoc came to his office with a scrapbook under his arm that contained with autographed images of his favorite exotic dancers.

Quote

“If you want to know about causation,” the attorney said, “there are three reasons.

"Number one: He was isolated from his family. Number two: He hated his mother for being a Democrat—this is a nice way to get back her, don’t you think? And the third: He heard a voice calling his name, saying that there’s a war happening, that the Democrats are the enemy, that the media is the enemy, and that you are my soldiers.”

But does he have a neck tattoo?

Sayoc, on the other hand, wasn’t Lowy’s usual type of client. “I don’t represent people in vans very frequently,” the lawyer noted.

The list includes United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley, who announced last month that she will depart by the end of the year, with no replacement in line. Trump is widely expected to oust Attorney General Jeff Sessions, whom he has criticized for months. Others who appear most likely to depart, according to administration sources and White House advisers, include Defense Secretary James Mattis, Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross and Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, a close ally to chief-of-staff Gen. John Kelly.

Trump allies said that, in choosing replacements, the president will have a particular focus on how they might benefit him politically.

“The president is looking to get better performers – all of these decisions are being made in the context of the re-election campaign,” said one Republican close to the White House. “Trump wants the strongest possible A-team going into 2020.”
