‘Poor Me’: Donald Trump Spends Christmas Eve Alone Defending His Agenda

Breitbart:  President Donald Trump is spending Christmas Eve at the White House defending his agenda on Twitter.

“I am all alone (poor me) in the White House waiting for the Democrats to come back and make a deal on desperately needed Border Security,” Trump wrote on Twitter.

The president spent most of the morning on the social media platform urging Democrats to pass a funding bill for national security after the government shut down on Friday.

The House of Representatives passed a continuing resolution to keep the government open with $5 billion in funding for border security. But the Senate refused to vote the legislation forward, shutting down the government.

Trump remained at the White House while members of Congress went home for Christmas.

“At some point the Democrats not wanting to make a deal will cost our Country more money than the Border Wall we are all talking about,” Trump wrote. “Crazy!”

He reminded the United States that Democrats used to support border security but desperately want to keep him from a political victory.

“It was only when I made it an important part of my campaign, because people and drugs were pouring into our Country unchecked, that they turned against it,” he wrote. “Desperately needed!”

The president also defended his foreign policy decision to get American troops out of Syria.

Several hawkish senators continued to criticize Trump’s decision, sparking a response from the president.

“To those few Senators who think I don’t like or appreciate being allied with other countries, they are wrong, I DO,” he wrote. “What I don’t like, however, is when many of these same countries take advantage of their friendship with the United States, both in Military Protection and Trade.”

He said that Saudi Arabia had agreed to help Syria rebuild once American troops left.

“See? Isn’t it nice when immensely wealthy countries help rebuild their neighbors rather than a Great Country, the U.S., that is 5000 miles away[?]” he asked. “Thanks to Saudi A!”  more here

  1. I think he was trolling – and he succeeded. I guarantee there is no “poor me” in having to spend Christmas alone with Melania

    P.S. Where is the rest of the family? Sons, daughters, grand children are what Christmas is for

    P.s. We’re an hour away and you’re welcome to join us for beef tenderloin and scalloped potatoes. We pop our pants after dinner. Please ignore the dog hair. We vacuum regularly, but….we don’t have staff.

  3. The president spent most of the morning on the social media platform…

    It does not take “most of the morning” to write a handful of tweets. I suspect that he’s been on the phone (Erdogan, MBS, others), and taking some quiet time to plot. I hope some of that is about who gets fired next.

  4. I’d join you in a New York minute Mr. President. We could bullshit for hours about your buildings in NYC. I worked in many of them. I know of assholes you dumped and talent you rewarded. Merry Christmas Sir.

  5. One time, long ago, way before the transgender and unisex bullshit there was a job on Sixth Avenue where new toilets were being installed in a floor, part of a total renovation of the floor.
    The Men’s Room was to get Blue ceramic tile, floor and walls: the Ladies room was to get pink tile.
    The truck driver dropped off the appropriate amount of tile, adhesive, and grout to each room.
    Next day the tillers arrived, two absolute proven experts. Fast, neat, and perfect work was their reputation City wide.
    Next day they are grouting when their super came in. “Nice work guys,” said the super. “Thanks Sal,” said Mario, the foreman.
    Sal walked away. But he returned in less that ten minutes with a different attitude.
    “What the fuck, Mario, what the fuck? The Men’s room is supposed to have blue tile. oh fuck.”
    “Did you read the specks (specifications) Mario, you asshole”?
    “No, did you,? who putta da tile in the fucking rooms,? you da asshole.
    Anyway it turned out that the Contractor was fired, and may not have been paid a full amount. A new contractor came in to rip up the tile and do it properly.
    Mario never lost a days work, but the super, Sal, had trouble finding work. BTW the truck driver delivered the tile as directed:
    room 101 Pink, Room 102 Blue. The office fucked up. Names have been changed to protect the innocent. I hope you get my meaning.
    Merry Christmas all.
    Maybe transgender toilets would prevent this type of shit. Whadda ya think?
