Donald Trump has been busy this Sunday, but not in a good way.
While most American presidents spend their weekends with family and friends, or even catching up on their reading, Trump spent most of the morning tapping away on his cell phone, sending out one tweet after another. Here’s a sampling:
Spent very little time with Andrew McCabe, but he never took notes when he was with me. I don’t believe he made memos except to help his own agenda, probably at a later date. Same with lying James Comey. Can we call them Fake Memos?

Why does the Mueller team have 13 hardened Democrats, some big Crooked Hillary supporters, and Zero Republicans? Another Dem recently added…does anyone think this is fair? And yet, there is NO COLLUSION!

Dude, why do you feel a need to keep making yourself look even guiltier than you already do? Can’t you stay off Twitter for a single day? Your every tweet provides more evidence for Robert Mueller. What an idiot.
Trump was so out of control and enraged that staffers finally decided to take him golfing if only to get him away from watching TV and tweeting in response. Maggie Haberman of The New York Times reported:
Aides have decided to whisk Trump to a golf course today.

When in doubt, take the child to the nearest playground and let him hit things with clubs.

Redirection is a parenting technique often used with toddlers.

The best part of the Trump administration is watching @realDonaldTrump live tweet his own obstruction of justice charges. As they say, if you want to bring down a fool, just let him keep talking. Donald, the floor is yours.

Here’s a suggestion for White House advisers: A straitjacket is just as good and hell of a lot less expensive for taxpayers.
