I've been working on a piece charting the worst indiscretions of Trump's presidency and I'd completely forgotten about the speech he gave to the Boy Scouts Jamboree in which he talked about a friend who had orgies on a boat nymag.com/intelligencer/…
Or the time he pushed the Prime Minister of Montenegro out of his way for a photo op

Or that time he cancelled a summit with the Danish prime minister because she wouldn't sell him Greenland

Remember when Sean Spicer referred to concentration camps as "Holocaust centers" leading to this reaction from @AshleyRParker and the defining gif of the Trump years

And I had completely forgotten that Trump wanted to build a moat around the US-Mexico border wall and fill it with snakes and alligators nytimes.com/2019/10/01/us/…
One of my favorite Trump outrages - the time he attacked Nordstrom's on Twitter because they said they would no longer carry Ivanka Trump's fashion brand
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/829356871848951809
Three words: "Bowling Green Massacre" washingtonpost.com/news/morning-m…
And what about that time John Kelly bragged to reporters that he fired Rex Tillerson while he was on the can thedailybeast.com/john-kelly-rex…
This one was a doozy:
"According to the sources, Trudeau pressed Trump on how he could justify the tariffs as a "national security" issue. In response, Trump quipped to Trudeau, "Didn't you guys burn down the White House?" referring to the War of 1812." cnn.com/2018/06/06/pol…

Somehow I had forgotten this ... 
Amazing that this one went down the memory hole ... that time Trump defended Putin against charges he had interfered in the 2016 election by saying he had offered him an "extremely strong" denial abcnews.go.com/Politics/stake…
Then there was the time he gave a smiling thumbs up with a baby whose parents had been orphaned in the El Paso mass shooting
And who can forget the time he threw paper towels at hurricane survivors in Puerto Rico

Ok, here's one - how many of you remembered that he commuted Rod Blagojevich's prison sentence? It happened this year! nbcnews.com/politics/donal…
I know that @Scaramucci has become a punch line but it's hard to do justice to how bats**t this interview with @RyanLizza was ... and how insane it seemed at the time newyorker.com/news/ryan-lizz…
How about that time he referred to @SenWarren as Pocahontas at a White House event HONORING NATIVE AMERICANS nbcnews.com/politics/white…
Covfefe ... how did we forget covfefe!
HE MOCKED A CHILD FOR BELIEVING IN SANTA CLAUS! cnn.com/2018/12/25/pol…
On his first full day in office he went to the CIA, stood before a wall memorializing the 117 CIA agents who have died in the line of duty "and boasted of his appearances on magazine covers and exaggerated about the size of the crowd at his inauguration." politico.com/story/2017/01/…
I’ve got more! Like the time Trump didn’t know that Frederick Douglass is no longer alive cnn.com/2017/02/02/pol…
He bragged about recognizing an elephant!
https://twitter.com/kylegriffin1/status/1284863167290413057
I had forgotten that he offered well wishes to an accused sexual predator - twice! politico.com/news/2020/08/0…
He publicly mocked Christine Blasey Ford at a campaign rally cnn.com/2018/10/02/pol…
His press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, said every woman who accused Trump of sexual assault was a liar washingtonpost.com/news/post-poli…
h/t yo @jacklerner but this one is unforgettable
A personal favorite: the time he had the Clemson Tigers to the White House & served them fast food
