What the hell? He would never read through all of that.

I'd have to assume the tweets are printed out one per page, late night talk show style. It makes 25 pages a day a significantly less daunting task.

[Exile20]

Wasn't this known already?

 

[Armaros]

They pay someone at the WH to find positive news for Trump.

And has the WH disputed that they dont?

This is the natural followup if that first fact is true.

Wasn't this known already?

That was they pay someone to find good news for Trump, not that he requires a intelligence report style report twice a day to feel good about himself.

 

[minor effort]

But of a contrast to Obama who read 10 letters from random people every day.

I'll take a wild guess and assume Trump doesn't do that.

Trump has @s from Twitter bots in place of that practice.

 

[Loudninja]

In huge ass font I am sure.

 

[adj_noun]

I'll take a wild guess and assume Trump doesn't do that.

They don't even respond to the petitions on https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/ any more, let alone read letters from the dirty public.

Incidentally, I often wonder why they even bother still having that thing up. Unless they just don't want to deal with the flak of taking it down.

 

[Monkeyball]

This always makes me L O L

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about honours or appointments.

That would be his dream. "Sir Trump".

 

[SpaceWolf]

I'm so glad I'm not American.

 

[Kin5290]

What the hell? He would never read through all of that.

He just wants to look at the pictures.

 

[Shadow Puppetry]

Perfect.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

I mean, he has fake time magazine covers of himself..he's a fan of fake news..

 

[Pilgrimzero]

Seriously, the tell all books about all of this after its over is going to be AMAZING

 

[jasminlovesyoux]

Why the fuck is this allowed to happen? Isn't there anyone reasonable there to say "Hey, Donald that's absurd. You're wasting someone's time with this nonsense."

What a joke.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

?

 

[rjinaz]

Fucking snow flake president.

Reminds me of that episode of South Park where Butters had to start filtering all of Cartman's social media so he only saw the good stuff.

Trump's America is South Park in real life.

 

[Bluenoser]

Of course he would. With some tissue and lubricant.

It's mostly pictures.

I'd have to assume the tweets are printed out one per page, late night talk show style. It makes 25 pages a day a significantly less daunting task.

He just wants to look at the pictures.

Yeah, I admit I was so stunned at the number of pages in relation to his attention span, I posted before reading the next paragraph (which is somewhat ironic). It makes more sense now.

Creating propaganda about the US President for the US President.

Twice a day since the beginning of the Trump administration, a special folder is prepared for the president. The first document is prepared around 9:30 a.m. and the follow-up around 4:30 p.m. Former Chief of Staff Reince Priebus and former Press Secretary Sean Spicer both wanted the privilege of delivering the 20- to 25-page packet to President Trump personally, White House sources say.

“The RNC is always going to work to defend the White House, the Administration, and its members of Congress and our War Room’s efforts help capture and drive how our team can echo that defense,” said RNC spokeswoman Lindsay Jancek.

Another current White House official said that the idea for the twice-daily ego boost came from Priebus and former Press Secretary Sean Spicer, who competed to deliver the folder and be the bearer of the good news. “Priebus and Spicer weren’t in a good position, and they wanted to show they could provide positive coverage,” the official said. “It was self-preservation.”

Good grief.

 

[g11]

Walking inferiority complex says what?

 

[jmdajr]

Now that's a manchild.

 

[uncelestial]

He also gets Spaghetti-Os if he's been good, but he pronounces it "pasketti." The little rascal!

 

[MrBadger]

What a fucking loser lmao

 

[Always-honest]

I can only hope this is fake news.

 

[Sagroth]

These sensitive papers, described to VICE News by three current and former White House officials, are not top-secret intelligence or updates on legislative initiatives. Instead, the folders are filled with screenshots of positive cable news chyrons (those lower-third headlines and crawls), admiring tweets, transcripts of fawning TV interviews, praise-filled news stories, and sometimes just pictures of Trump on TV looking powerful.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissistic_personality_disorder

Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a personality disorder in which there is a long-term pattern of abnormal behavior characterized by exaggerated feelings of self-importance, an excessive need for admiration, and a lack of understanding of others' feelings.[2][3] People affected by it often spend a lot of time thinking about achieving power or success, or about their appearance. They often take advantage of the people around them. The behavior typically begins by early adulthood, and occurs across a variety of situations.[

According to the DSM-5, individuals with NPD have most or all of the following symptoms, typically without commensurate qualities or accomplishments:[7][10]

Grandiosity with expectations of superior treatment from others

Fixated on fantasies of power, success, intelligence, attractiveness, etc.

Self-perception of being unique, superior and associated with high-status people and institutions

Needing constant admiration from others

Sense of entitlement to special treatment and to obedience from others

Exploitative of others to achieve personal gain
Unwilling to empathize with others' feelings, wishes, or needs

Intensely envious of others and the belief that others are equally envious of them

Pompous and arrogant demeanor

I doubt foreign words like spaghetti are allowed to be spoken in the White House.

 

[Beer Monkey]

Well, know we know what's going to be in The Donald J. Trump Presidential Library.

Jesus, somebody leak one. The whole fucking folder.

 

[Netherscourge]

Do you think this news will make it into his Happy News report tomorrow?

I mean, it's about Happy News, right?

 

[blakep267]

What the hell? He would never read through all of that.

It's a lot of pictures

 

[gcubed]

This would be funny if he wasn't my president. Fucking douchebag

 

[Maximus.]

What a sad man.

 

[radios shipping overview]

Oh my god, what a baby.

 

[Daingurse]

This is fucking sorry. Dude is made of glass.

 

[Akuun]

I feel bad for the people who make build this Make Trump Feel Adequate Folder.

I bet these people weren't specifically hired to make this folder. They were probably hired to do something important in the White House, but now they are told to drop whatever they're doing and go scour the media to find things that make Trump feel better about himself.

I'm too tired to even laugh or cry at how absurd this is.

 

[Holy Order Sol]

What the hell? He would never read through all of that.

he'll look at the pictures and look for his name

 

[RootCause]

Thinnest skin ever. Just embarrassing.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

It's good that you're the president! It's very good!

 

[Abstruse Moose]

Weakest loser in the history of weak losers.

I cant even put into words how sad and pathetic this is. This is the fucking President?

Imagine making that folder twice a day, IMAGINE that being your job and your only job for the next few years...........................

What is my purpose?
You give Trump his big boy folder.

 

[Akuun]

I cant even put into words how sad and pathetic this is. This is the fucking President?

And his base thinks he's a strong person and a strong leader.

Really.

 

[hitme]

Jesus, if he really needs to look strong just call Vince McMahon.

 

[m3k]

[Michael F. Assbender]

The best bitch-made pussy asshole.

 

[TetraGenesis]

And some people think this mother fucker won't start a war with North Korea just to feel big.

Shameful. Absolutely shameful
