I'm just hoping it means that they haven't got around to telling him that there isn't actually a button. Maybe they've given him a big red button that lights up when pressed, but nothing else, just to make him feel important.

He has had a good Christmas is he's been given a button that lights up too, he was already getting his own Buzz Lightyear space ranger force, and a shark with a laser on its head. Now he can do missions on the moon, under the ocean and on land.
Mind we possibly shouldn't mock when China saying no more to plastics has us with no idea what to do next, other than Michael Gove hoping he can send the waste to the moon.
So..., Bannon will not be returning to the Whitehouse. Whether the orange one makes another claim he's never met the guy and wouldn't recognise Bannon if he was in the room we'll have to wait and see. Of course Trump might be fine with Bannon calling him treasonous, unpatriotic and a bad shit, and even if he's not okay with it he normally takes criticism well
What a pack of utter wankers. They live in an alternative universe. They peddle this shyte like some sort of TV evangelist social warrior cartoon character. I'm just going to try and ride it out.

Given how rarely he's at work in the White House these days, it shouldn't be an issue. Now if his golf buggy or his TV remote had one, that'd be another matter.
Trump's recent tweets and other comments perfectly highlight his fragile mental state.
He has attacked Pakistan and the Palestinians with threats of cutting aid unless they toe the line. A brazen example of political/financial blackmail.
Iran was then the target of his vitriol. It's amazing that he supports Iranian demonstrators but isn't so keen on people who march against himself in America and the rest of the world.
Then there's the "fake news". Some MSM outlets have indeed published false and inaccurate stories, but they generally get picked up on, retracted, corrected and apologies are issued. It's a huge shame Trump doesn't hold himself to those same standards. He and his family and administration have been responsible for peddling so many falsehoods that it's hard to keep track. He is the very definition of fake news.
His 'MOST DISHONEST & CORRUPT MEDIA AWARDS OF THE YEAR' is a frightening attack on the free press and just go to show the lengths Trump will go to in order to discredit and deflect.
It will be interesting to see how the Steve Bannon story develops. Bannon, just as much of a douche as president douche himself could well turn out to be a poorly chose enemy for Trump. He has the ability to directly influence Trump's core base and that could easily result in more bad polls.
I'm sure there's more examples of his state of mind over the past few days....
