We always knew he didn't really want to do this job. SMH.

[One Girl In All The World]

Mr. Trump, a homebody who often flew several hours late at night during the campaign so he could wake up in his own bed in Trump Tower, is talking with his advisers about how many nights a week he will spend in the White House.


WTF THIS MOTHERFUCKER RIGHT HERE AND HIS RANTING ABOUT HILLARY GOING HOME DURING THE CAMPAIGN.

FUCK EVERYTHING.

[sonrisa]

Of course he does.

[sangria]

DID THE AD FOR THE JOB OF PRESIDENT NOT MENTION THAT THIS IS A FULL-TIME, BENEFITTED POSITION WITH A MOTHERFUCKING RELOCATION PACKAGE?!?

A question he should have asked himself before he, ya know, decided to run.

The dude had no intention of actually being President. I'm sure he was just as shocked as everyone else. All he really wanted to do was bitch and moan about how it was rigged and launch Trump TV.

[eclaires]

He's such an absurd idiot. So stupid, so ridiculous, so ignorant.

[smock]

Oh, when HRC slept at home it made her weak and lacking stamina. When Trump does it, he's a "homebody."

I see how it is.

[tessalb]

MAkes sense to me. He just wants to be a part-time president. How much are we, the taxpayers, going to have to pay for Trump Tower to be set up with the necessary security and other necessary presidential things? I am seeing red over this.

My favorite deadspin article is about how Trump is more miserable than we are about this.

[One Girl In All The World]

I don't know why THIS is the thing that is pushing me over the edge, but fuck. My chest hurts this makes me so fucking mad.

FUCK YOU TRUMP.

[JLV]

I'm pretty sure Hillary is probably throwing shit every time a new thing comes out.

She probably has a Trump punching bag.

But see, she's a WOMAN. That makes her weak all around. He is just doing manly bigly things in his tower. 

Fuck this dude. I seriously could just scream right now.

[ESF]

His whole operation is going to be run from Trump Tower. Blind trust my ass.

Oooh link please!

Also this part stuck out to me.

"Returning home to Trump Tower from the White House may not be Mr. Trump’s only embrace of the familiar. His aides say he has also expressed interest in continuing to hold the large rallies that were a staple of his candidacy. He likes the instant gratification and adulation that the cheering crowds provide, and his aides are discussing how they might accommodate his demand."


Of course he does. It's clear that the he only wants to soak up the celebrity aspects of the job rather than exert power to change things for the better and the good of the people. It's all about ego with him. Who was that writer who said this whole thing was about making a certain group of people in Manhattan finally respect him? He makes me sick. I'm still partially in disbelief that we are stuck with him for four freaking years.

[lilibet]

I'm really not surprised.

Someone on twitter said "I bet he's one of those people that can only poop at home...." I almost fell over laughing.

[curbsideprophet]

I feel like he admitted this on the campaign trail before the election.

I'm sort of hoping Bill and Chelsea are keeping her away from the tv and internet....although I do hope she saw last night's snl opener.

He has to go back to Trump Tower to get his hair done.

My question is: who does he expect to attend these rallies when his campaign supporters realize: they're not getting a wall, they're not getting a repeal of the ACA or NAFTA, they're not getting protectionist tariffs, they're not getting any decent manufacturing jobs back, and oh yeah, corporations and the wealthy are getting a tax cut and all they might get is the loss of their Medicare and SS if Paul Ryan gets his way.

That article is spot on and absolutely everything.

Dudes. I don't even have words. Pence looks like an eager puppy. Trump looks like I do after a bottle of vodka.  "It seemed like a good idea until this shit comes home to roost."

How is he going to fly overseas to summits and meetings?? Or is he going to send them invites for a big giant slumber part at trump tower?

He'll probably pop over to stay with Putin for a pussy party and to do each other's hair.

And given that 99% of the stuff he will have to talk about will have zero to do with him he's going to hate it. He lives only to feed his own ego. And plus it's going to remind him of what he already knows which is that he's really not a legitimately smart person. Probably average at best. So a lot of this is not going to be easy to grasp which will be so boring for him.
