Minor matters that are still on the President's agenda.

Musk and Trump both seem to post their own tweets, and find time to post about trivia. They are probably the two busiest people on earth. Strange.
Stray voltage is a term of art in politics, popularized during Barack Obama's presidency by David Plouffe.
The cool thing is that lower-level staff can engage in it on behalf of the President. So in actuality, Trump hasn't spent any time on this and doesn't really give a fuck.
It's designed to get people's eye off the ball, and it works very well on low-IQ and low-engaged people.
That’s our Trump!
Don’t ever change!
The point is to make you think about it.
And he can make the media write about it.
This forgotten show is likely over the moon that Trump thinks they're worth mentioning
NBC is a propaganda mill. They never heard an idea out of Davos that they didn't like.
I chuckled at 'sick rumor.'
Silage. Nom Nom Nom.
If he mentions the topic again, it's on his agenda. If not, it's another Jack Handey Deep Thoughts moment.
Nothing really new here. Trump’s post about Meyers isn’t about comedy or ratings—it’s the same old Trump pattern. He belittles, he threatens, and he hints at retaliation against anyone who doesn’t flatter him. We’ve seen this with judges, prosecutors, journalists, even entire corporations.
Authoritarians throughout history—whether Al Capone in Chicago or Hitler in Germany—never tolerated being mocked. Trump’s telling us plainly: he doesn’t think he should have to, either.
The “rumor” was announced in May.
In other important news Trump Blessed the impending Kelce-Swift nuptials: "Well, I wish him a lot of luck," I think he's a great player. I think he's a great guy. And I think that she's a terrific person. So I wish them a lot of luck."
He must be angling for an invitation to the wedding.

Always give the most important task to the busiest person.

…in a world where the Democrats believe their number one priority is ‘better messaging’ perhaps this project deserves a higher priority than you would assign…
I'm sure he'll tweet his NCAA bracket next March, just because the networks won't cover it
Here I thought he was strategizing on our movement in the South China Sea.

i think, that the correct term would be:
That Darn Trump!
ala the Disney film: That Darn Cat
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/That_Darn_Cat!
I mean, Democrats believed they could drown Trump in lawfare, so perhaps Trump recognizes he can drown Democrats in counter messaging? Can anyone on the left resist responding? I have my doubts…
Trump as Rain Man.
Speaking of Cracker Barrel—Pass the AI slop will you pretty please… with sugar on top.
It is the inverse of the Jeopardy! host assuming his skill with trivial knowledge also makes him more qualified to tell us how Trump is wrong.

Dustin's character is way too articulate for someone with his supposed developmental issues.
I miss the small government Republicans that didn't take a 10% in a chip manufacturer and didn't need to "look into" private contract matters. The big government GOP are a bunch of dangerous busybodies. Leave us alone.
Wait until the Bernie/Elizabeth Warren acolytes start buying up American corporations. Wait until the $1000 "Trump Accounts" become the $25,000 AOC accounts. It's insane how the Trumpers just line up time after time for Trump-flavored Marxism. We are so fucked and you useful idiots let it happen. This shit all happened under Trump.
Come on Trump - dude you won.
You beat these guys.
You don't need antagonize them anymore. You're the PRESDIENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
“He'll definitely be finding out.”
By posing the question online, Trump already puts Meyers in the position of confirming, denying or ignoring. How can Meyers on his show ignore a Trump tweet about himself? How can Meyers mock Trump’s post without disclosing the status of his show at NBC?
Trump’s post itself did all the work.
In Colorado- the corrupt lying one party rule Dems, along with the corrupt local Democratic hack media - all lie - while they waste our money like water going down a drain. Our Budget is busted - and they all blame Trump. Nothing to do with Trump at all. It's Colorado's budget.
Y'all can go f yourselves.
"Trump’s post about Meyers isn’t about comedy or ratings—it’s the same old Trump pattern. He belittles, he threatens, and he hints at retaliation against anyone who doesn’t flatter him."
Disagree. Trump's "pattern" is to point out mainstays of our leftwing entertainment/political culture who have been accorded prestige and influence for a long time and ask if those people really deserve the status they hold. He's the kid yelling about the emperor's having no clothes (except it's usually that the targeted "emperor" has no talent or viewers).
From the very few and very short clips of Seth Meyers; show that I've seen, I did pick up on the "personality of an insecure child," though it was more of an intuition that I couldn't put into words. There was a nervousness and a desire to please in man child Seth. You could see in his SNL days, too.
I'm surprised though, that Trump picked up on that. He must have had some understanding of people to be a good enough negotiator, but I didn't think he would be that able to articulate such insights and intuitions clearly. It's also interesting that he didn't read Seth Meyer's effete, ineffectual, silly manner in a cruder, uglier way.
"Rain Main" is my go-to good example of a film that moviegoers and critics alike claimed to love when it came out, but that nobody has ever watched in the decades since.
He prioritizes shitake and fawning tweets because it is the primary communication for politicians to reach all of their constituents without spending one thin dime. Nothing planned in the middle just a combination of cheerleading and derision.
The media is the message, folks... don't let the banal, trivial and salacious nature fool you. This is part of the strategy to win big in 26.
As someone who hasn’t owned a television since 1999, it seems so utterly quaint to care about who some dying network hires or rehires.
RJW: “ Authoritarians throughout history—whether Obama in Chicago or Merkel in Germany—never tolerated being mocked.”
FIFY.

Trump is actually better at mocking himself than most of the performers who've tried it. He never lets anything go unresponded to or uncommented on. That is a sign of a sensitivity or insecurity, but given that he's had more negative feedback than other presidents, is he really that different from the others? Would Obama or Clinton or Biden really have loved and laughed off the level of abuse that Trump gets? Is limp dishrag Bush Jr. a model to follow? Some people have "Trump Nazi," "Trump racist," or "Trump authoritarian" so planted in their brains that they can't see anything else.
Peachy: “ Come on Trump - dude you won.

He does. Just being content with the win didn’t work in 2017 because of all the lawfare, noncompliance, burrowers, GOPe embeds trying to control him, etc.
The only way he can get anything done (let alone stay in office or just stay alive) is to fight them on all fronts, legal, economic, political, cultural, street-fighting, etc. etc.
To do otherwise leaves open a big shining crack in his armor for them.
He has to show them there is no place to hide and no easy way to get to him.

Trump "prioritizes shitake" (Howard, 8:54pm)? Glad to hear it: those are good mushrooms!
AMDG: “ He must be angling for an invitation to the wedding.”
No, he’s going to invite them to their own wedding. On the WH South Grounds.With Trump as the officiant, using his inherent powers over the DC City Clerk. Or Greta-Green blacksmith style, since he’s a Scottish Presby.
Yuge!

Arg. Gretna Green. Don’t want to think about a Greta Green wedding! - jsm
Trump wants the political capital to be the cultural capital, like it is in Europe. But he has a different idea of culture from the current cultural elites. Explains a lot of what he’s doing.

You better be good for goodness sake.
