But beware of the day, if your Snark be a Boojum!
Nope, no, not in America. 100% unacceptable. This is not who we are. We don't watch a Washington Post journalist get assassinated and dismembered and say "it is what it is."

The near-destruction of ISIS, the restoration of sound defense budgeting, a reestablished sense of deterrence, and stable recalibration with allies signature achievements of Mattis. Seems a mistake not to have him finish a four-year stint at Defense. https://t.co/hFcgaIu9jn pic.twitter.com/rJuqmOrPLD

Reading facts is dangerous.
Trump should be understood as a religious leader, to whom any presentations of reality are fake news. Trump delivers the alternative facts his adherents are asking for. Numbers are from hell – unless made up by Trump himself.

This is, without a doubt, the most uninformed, imbecilic, toady, poorly-written, categorically untrue statement I have ever seen from a president of the United States. A complete disgrace. https://t.co/9eqoWFeroX

From the Senate:
