Our "Leader" is becoming a demented old man in front of our eyes. He's falling asleep during Oval Office events, and lashing out at reporters. I can't imagine the tantrums he throws in private. He is sociopathically egotistical, and completely detached from reality. That's not good, right?! #Resist

Q: Do you plan to attend Sarah's funeral?
TRUMP: I haven't thought about it yet, but it's certainly something I can conceive of. I love West Virginia. You know, I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.

The two #NationalGuard soldiers would not have been shot if they had not been deployed to #D.C. for absolutely no reason. It's shameful and provocative. My sympathy to these families. Your children were doing what they were ordered to do. That's their job. #Nonviolence is the only way forward.
