It’s Monday.
It’s that time again boys and girls, for the President of the United States, to meltdown on Twitter ahead of a #MAGA/#KAG campaign rally.
In the biz of following Trump Tweets, you’ll recall we call this “gin the crowd,” or “prep work,” ahead of his typically 90 minutes speech.
So far the President has tweeted 14 times for Monday.
Maria & John understood the dishonesty & deception from the very beginning! https://t.co/kyYx4S56Z0

The Inspector General report regarding the Republican led claim that the FBI lied to the FISA court in order to obtain a FISA Warrant on former Trump campaign volunteer Carter Page, was expected to be completed by end of May or early June with a public release shortly thereafter according to Attorney General William Barr’s testimony from April 9th, 2016.
The recently released Inspector General Report regarded former FBI Director James Comey’s handling of seven memos he penned after he had one-on-one meetings with President-Elect Trump followed by President Trump.
According to the report, Comey broke no laws, he did break his employment agreement with the FBI and disregarded standard FBI operating procedure by keeping and sharing some of the seven memos with others outside the FBI.
In short Comey committed what could have led to a demotion or a firing offense had he not already been fired by President Trump when he shared the memo in question with his attorney who shared the contents not the memo itself with the New York Times.

As the News Blender reported North Carolina district 9 faced upheaval following the midterm elections in 2018.
In what was considered a highly competitive and “top-tier” race to watch in Nov 2018 election cycle for the US House NC-09 was between Mark Harris (R), who managed to unseat the Republican incumbent in the Republican primaries, and the Democrat challenger Dan McCready.
the News Blender.
The race was called by the press, then FiveThirtyEight, Harris was expected to win with a lead of only 905 votes. On November 27th, the North Carolina State Board of Elections and Ethics Reform voted to not certify the November 6 election results due to “irregularities involving absentee ballots.”
Following the exposure of election fraud, not to be confused with voter fraud, North Carolina’s election board called for a special election, Mark Harris citing poor health, declined to run for the seat again.
Democrat Dan McCready who lost the midterm race to Harris, decided to run again. He faces Republican Dan Bishop.
On Tuesday North Carolina who’s district has been without representation for nearly 11 months heads to the polls.
According to FiveThirtyEight.com, as of September 7th, McCready polled at 48 percent while Bishop polled at 45 percent.
McCready’s bio from McCready for Congress.com.
Dan McCready is a Marine Corps veteran, small business owner, husband, and father of four. Dan’s running for U.S. Congress as a Democrat in North Carolina’s 9th District. After his opponent’s campaign committed election fraud in last November’s election, a re-do special election is being held on September 10. Dan’s running for Congress to put country over party and lower healthcare and prescription drug costs, cut middle class taxes, and strengthen public schools.
North Carolina State Senator Dan Bishop’s bio from Vote Dan Bishop.com.

Dan was born and raised in the 9th district – the youngest of five – and his family has lived here for generations.
An attorney, Dan spent most of his career in the private sector.

President Trump is “campaigning” for Bishop ahead of the Special Election, from Fayetteville, North Carolina on Monday.
When the former Governor of the Great State of South Carolina, @MarkSanford, was reported missing, only to then say he was away hiking on the Appalachian Trail, then was found in Argentina with his Flaming Dancer friend, it sounded like his political career was over. It was,….
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 9, 2019
…but then he ran for Congress and won, only to lose his re-elect after I Tweeted my endorsement, on Election Day, for his opponent. But now take heart, he is back, and running for President of the United States. The Three Stooges, all badly failed candidates, will give it a go!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 9, 2019
Flaming Dancer =’s Flamenco or Flamingo Dancer.
In 2009 as the New York Post explains, Mark Sanford, who announced on Sunday that he would run against President Trump for the Republican nomination for 2020, went missing for a week.
He had told reporters at the time that he was hiking, only later to admit to an affair with Maria Belén Chapur a journalist from Argentina.
I am compelled to enter the Presidential Primary as a Republican for several reasons – the most important of which is to further and foster a national debate on our nation's debt, deficits and spending.
— Mark Sanford (@MarkSanford) September 8, 2019
We have a storm coming that we are neither talking about nor preparing for given that we, as a country, are more financially vulnerable than we have ever been since our Nation’s start and the Civil War. We are on a collision course with financial reality. We need to act now.
— Mark Sanford (@MarkSanford) September 8, 2019
As I have watched the Democrat debates I hear no discussion, or even recognition, of what is occurring. Instead I hear a laundry list of new unpaid for political promises. On the Republican side, spending is up well above President Obama.
— Mark Sanford (@MarkSanford) September 8, 2019
@realDonaldTrump has ruled out action on the very things that drive spending and accumulated debt. Debate is even being cancelled on the Republican side, though I believe we need a conversation and action more than ever given our present course.
— Mark Sanford (@MarkSanford) September 8, 2019
Essentially no one “leading” in Washington is leading, or even speaking of, our financial predicament. We are living in a government spending and financial la-la land.. Which brings me to the larger question of what I, or any of us, can do about it?
— Mark Sanford (@MarkSanford) September 8, 2019
I have a unique vantage point and set of experiences – as a Governor, as a Member of Congress and as a taxpayer outside of politics. I do believe we must have this conversation now and humbly I step forward.
— Mark Sanford (@MarkSanford) September 8, 2019
I respect the view of many Republican friends who have suggested that I not run, but I simply counter that competition makes us stronger. I believe competition of ideas is good, not bad, for the Republican Party and for our country.
— Mark Sanford (@MarkSanford) September 8, 2019
I ask for your wisdom, prayers, suggestions and time along the road ahead. Please join us – get involved – and know how much I would appreciate hearing from you.
— Mark Sanford (@MarkSanford) September 8, 2019
Also challenging President Trump is former Governor Bill Weld, who welcomed Sanford to the race via tweet.
So excited that Gov Mark Sanford of South Carolina, an experienced and thoughtful fiscal conservative, has joined Rep Joe Walsh of Illinois and myself in the Republican 2020 primary race.
— Gov. Bill Weld (@GovBillWeld) September 8, 2019
Canceled primaries? What are you afraid of, Mr. No-Show? Intelligent, experienced, honest and decent competitors? Now more than ever, @realDonaldTrump, you can run but you cannot hide. #LetTheGamesBegin
— Gov. Bill Weld (@GovBillWeld) September 8, 2019
Other challenger Joe Walsh offered this in an apparent, almost if you squint just so, response to Sanford announcing he’ll challenge President Trump.
You don’t primary Trump because of the debt or his tariffs. The President of the United States is a pathological liar & a malignant narcissist who last night called an American a “foul-mouthed wife.”
— Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) September 9, 2019
This isn’t about the issues. This is ONLY about saving the country from Trump.
Weld: Canceled primaries?
Politico reported that according to three GOP officials who are familiar with the plans, to scrape four states primaries regarding President Trump and the GOP party, that “South Carolina, Nevada, Arizona and Kansas are expected to finalize the cancellations in meetings this weekend.”
In a statement Weld said of the announced move, “We don’t elect presidents by acclamation in America. Donald Trump is doing his best to make the Republican Party his own personal club. Republicans deserve better.”
Walsh: “foul-mouthed wife.”
President Trump last night via Twitter.
When all of the people pushing so hard for Criminal Justice Reform were unable to come even close to getting it done, they came to me as a group and asked for my help. I got it done with a group of Senators & others who would never have gone for it. Obama couldn’t come close….
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 9, 2019
….musician @johnlegend, and his filthy mouthed wife, are talking now about how great it is – but I didn’t see them around when we needed help getting it passed. “Anchor”@LesterHoltNBC doesn’t even bring up the subject of President Trump or the Republicans when talking about….
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 9, 2019
…..the importance or passage of Criminal Justice Reform. They only talk about the minor players, or people that had nothing to do with it…And the people that so desperately sought my help when everyone else had failed, all they talk about now is Impeaching President Trump!

As a reminder.
The President of the United States, while Candidate paid off not one, but two, women who alleged they had affairs with Businessman Trump, he did this a month prior to the election with the aid of then-personal Attorney Michael Cohen.
Cohen as the News Blender has covered, is currently in prison, for among other things campaign finance violations, that he says he committed at the request of President Trump.
House Republicans should allow Chairs of Committees to remain for longer than 6 years. It forces great people, and real leaders, to leave after serving. The Dems have unlimited terms. While that has its own problems, it is a better way to go. Fewer people, in the end, will leave!

94% Approval Rating in the Republican Party, a record. Thank you!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 9, 2019
The Washington Post explains that since 1992 House Republican “conference rules have restricted members to three consecutive terms in top committee leadership roles.
While the rule allows more opportunities for leadership, it limits the opportunities to build up influence and seniority.”
Trump keeps lying about this this like it is a fact he just learned. He’s 88% in Gallup, 86% in Quinnipiac, 81% in Ipsos; Bush was much higher (99%) after 9/11, which he has admitted he knows. As WaPo first noted, his peak ranks 6th of 7 post-WWII Republican presidents. pic.twitter.com/ogT9UeFpJZ

Cable News Network Bashing, a staple among President Trump Tweets, especially in the lead up to a campaign rally.
Great news that an activist investor is now involved with AT&T. As the owner of VERY LOW RATINGS @CNN, perhaps they will now put a stop to all of the Fake News emanating from its non-credible “anchors.” Also, I hear that, because of its bad ratings, it is losing a fortune…..
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 9, 2019
…But most importantly, @CNN is bad for the USA. Their International Division spews bad information & Fake News all over the globe. This is why foreign leaders are always asking me, “Why does the Media hate the U.S. sooo much?” It is a fraudulent shame, & all comes from the top!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 9, 2019
As bad as @CNN is, Comcast MSNBC is worse. Their ratings are also way down because they have lost all credibility. I believe their stories about me are not 93% negative, but actually 100% negative. They are incapable of saying anything positive, despite all of the great things…
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 9, 2019
..that this Administration has done. They don’t talk about the great economy, the big tax and regulation cuts, the rebuilding of the Military, “Choice” at our VA, our Vets, Judges and Supreme Court Justices, the Border Wall going up, lowest crime numbers, 2nd A, and so much more!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 9, 2019
The Trump Administration has achieved more in the first 2 1/2 years of its existence than perhaps any administration in the history of our Country. We get ZERO media credit for what we have done, and are doing, but the people know, and that’s all that is important!

CNN spokesman.
In case you hear differently, CNN is having its most profitable year in history. Last month the network delivered its highest August ratings on record and won the prime time demo – beating both Fox and MSNBC. 🤦🏻♂️

CNN reported that according to “multiple Trump administration officials”that in 2017 in a previously undisclosed secret mission the U.S. successfully extracted from Russia “one of its highest-level covert sources inside the Russian government.”
According to one of their sources, the decision in part to extract the source from Russia, was due in part to the President sharing in May of 2017 at a meeting in the Oval Office with Russian Foreign Minister “Lavrov and then-Russian Ambassador to the US Sergey Kislyak,” highly classified intelligence that concerned ISIS in Syria, that had been provided to the U.S. by Israel.
CNN does note that the highly classified intel shared with the Russian’s, was not about the source, however, it “prompted intelligence officials to renew earlier discussions about the potential risk of exposure, according to the source directly involved in the matter.”
At the time current Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was then the Director of the CIA.
The Next two tweets, will be covered in a separate thread, if all goes to plan, will be published around 3 p.m. eastern. *fingers crossed*
I know nothing about an Air Force plane landing at an airport (which I do not own and have nothing to do with) near Turnberry Resort (which I do own) in Scotland, and filling up with fuel, with the crew staying overnight at Turnberry (they have good taste!). NOTHING TO DO WITH ME
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 9, 2019
I had nothing to do with the decision of our great @VP Mike Pence to stay overnight at one of the Trump owned resorts in Doonbeg, Ireland. Mike’s family has lived in Doonbeg for many years, and he thought that during his very busy European visit, he would stop and see his family!

He deleted this tweet only to re-issue it.
For What It’s Worth. (Opinion)
On Saturday the President tweeted that he had cancelled a meeting with the Taliban that was to take place Sunday, at Camp David.
Unbeknownst to almost everyone, the major Taliban leaders and, separately, the President of Afghanistan, were going to secretly meet with me at Camp David on Sunday. They were coming to the United States tonight. Unfortunately, in order to build false leverage, they admitted to..
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 7, 2019
….an attack in Kabul that killed one of our great great soldiers, and 11 other people. I immediately cancelled the meeting and called off peace negotiations. What kind of people would kill so many in order to seemingly strengthen their bargaining position? They didn’t, they….
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 7, 2019
….only made it worse! If they cannot agree to a ceasefire during these very important peace talks, and would even kill 12 innocent people, then they probably don’t have the power to negotiate a meaningful agreement anyway. How many more decades are they willing to fight?
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 7, 2019
Number 3 in the House Republican leadership offered her support of the President.
Camp David is where America’s leaders met to plan our response after al Qaeda, supported by the Taliban, killed 3000 Americans on 9/11.
— Liz Cheney (@Liz_Cheney) September 8, 2019
No member of the Taliban should set foot there. Ever.
The Taliban still harbors al Qaeda.
The President is right to end the talks.
As you can see, she offered no criticism that the President would in fact plan such a meeting on our soil, at Camp David, a highly secured facility just days before the 18th anniversary of 9-11.
The point?
President Trump, Businessman Trump, whoever Trump is, thrives only on praise, all criticism that he faces is dismissed as fake news. Dismissed as but the Liberals did it. Only praise wins, or even sticks inside the mans head.
There is reporting out there that suggests the meeting wasn’t even a real plan, just an idea that was floated. And like we saw with Alabama the leadership of the R’s, as a whole, works overtime to protect precious.
I guess what I’m attempting to say in many words when a hashtag would do, is “Trump is #UnfitForOffice.”
And he proves it daily, hell, sometimes hourly.
