“This is 60 Minutes. We don’t put things on we can’t verify.” (Re: Obama/Biden spying conspiracy theory) Trump throws a tantrum, insists she CAN verify it but won’t, and Lesley is like LOL no, you’re wrong. Wouldn’t give in to him. HE DID NOT LIKE THAT 😂😂😂#60MinutesInterview

And this is the man we are supposed to believe can stand up to Putin and North Korea? He can’t even handle a woman telling him, “no, you’re wrong” and sticking to her guns. Trump is a thin-skinned, fragile-ego, whiny little asshole, that throws a tantrum on a hair-trigger
This is what happens when he surrounds himself with sycophants who stroke his ego gently every day, like he’s some pampered show dog, the result of the daily ‘pick-me-up’ clippings of ‘nice things people say about you’. His entire life, he’s never learned to deal w criticism.
All that ego-stroking + his inherent narcissism = a man who thinks he’s a fucking god, the most brilliant man alive, an emperor w no clothes, who makes sure he never encounters people who call him out. And now, as POTUS, he’s forced to hear legit criticism & he just can’t deal
It’s like an unexceptional child who grows up w doting parents who tells the kid his entire sheltered life how brilliant & uncommonly gifted he is. The kid grows up w an overinflated ego that bursts the 1st time he faces an honest person that tells him “dude you’re normal”
(Only in Trump’s case, he’s not even ‘normal’. If he was, things wouldn’t be this bad)
This is why when Kayleigh McEnany said, “The president doesn’t like to surround himself with ‘yes men’...” I was literally LOLing because he sure as hell does. In fact, if you criticize or contradict him, he’ll just fire your ass, then shit talk you for months/years
