BREAKING: GOP aka Republican Party rally around their President tonight... The Reviews of the book are in...

https://twitter.com/GOP/status/949395088735723520

The people tweeting below the GOP post are certainly not rallying around their President.

Over 700 comments. Compared to 2400 likes on the Tweet so far. 3 x as many likes than comments disagrees with you (and I doubt all the comments are negative). But nice try.

And when did Trump deride his own party, GOP as Fake News. More inaccuracies from you Andrew and more to the point what are you on about ?

The only desperation, I see is from the Democrat side, given they tried to steal an election via paying for a fake Russian dossier in an attempt get Trump in to trouble via the FBI later on down the line perchance?

I would say the GOP party rallying around their President is big news, was this crap book full of lies and deceit, suppose to have them distance them from him ?

That equally would have been news too.

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump

Likes say nothing Mick, words do. Here is one of many examples but hey, appreciate you will never accept he is wrong on any subject and you will probably still defend him if a mushroom cloud engulfed you.

See the tweet's contents. After criticising the mainstream media for being fake news, he's now posting excerpts from the likes of the New York Times and CNN to support his views. Are these sources no longer fake news?

If you mean in the GOP tweet that Mick linked to then you are wrong again. That tweet is not by Trump.

Trump retweeted the GOP tweet.

I couldn’t give a stuff what you do or don’t appreciate. There are many thing I don’t agree with this President on, but those views, I choose not to share and that’s my prerogative.

As for the comment, it a hideous remark probably by a Hillary fan, still upset that she thankfully lost.

Of course likes say a lot. It’s not about defending him either, I just refuse to join in on the pathetic ‘Trump derangement syndrome’ and hysteria bandwagon. So stop attacking me with pathetic connotations because I refuse to join it.

You are being deliberately obtuse as usual.

If people in the liberal media are finding issues with the book, then it’s tool to express strong criticism of the book that even the other side of the fence are finding issues with it.

I would totally agree with you on this point were it not for the fact that Trump has said CNN and the New York Times are fake news.

Sigh.

If people, the audience this book is aimed for and they are the ones even finding fault with it, you use that as an advantage to mock it and take pot shots at.

Clearly Trump and GOP fuelling the fire of publicity is only driving sales higher! Its sales are unexpectedly high and it's out of stock until mid-January!

He should have learnt a lesson from Barabra Streisand.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect

A sensible reaction would have been for him to publish his tax returns thereby removing all suspicion that he received money from foreigners to support his election campaign, and distracting from the book.

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump

Interesting comment from Grassley and Lindsey Graham re Steele.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-42586855
Quote:
In a joint statement from Mr Grassley and his colleague, Lindsey Graham, who chairs a number of senate subcommittees, the senators said they were not alleging Mr Steele had committed any crime. Rather. they had passed on the information for "further investigation only".

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump

Latest tweet from the orange buffoon. Wonder if he reads the responses, you have to look really hard to find anything positive?

....Actually, throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart. Crooked Hillary Clinton also played these cards very hard and, as everyone knows, went down in flames. I went from VERY successful businessman, to top T.V. Star........to President of the United States (on my first try). I think that would qualify as not smart, but genius....and a very stable genius at that!

He ran in 2000 to be nominated as the candidate for the Reform Party, and qualified for two Presidential Primaries.

Obama, George W Bush and Bill Clinton also won on their first attempt apparently.
