OOCC believes that talking about how the GOP will be in power forever and we're all doomed is tantamount to spreading a right-wing talking point because it ascribes political invincibility to Trump and the Republicans. Not sure I buy it but if it gets people to stop acting like sadsacks then so be it.

White House aides fret over Trump’s Russia probe obsession

quote:

Trump, for months, has bristled almost daily at the ongoing probes. He has sometimes, without prompting, injected “I’m not under investigation” into conversations with associates and allies. He has watched hours of TV coverage every day — sometimes even storing morning news shows on his TiVo to watch in the evening — and complained nonstop.

...

Just as he has done publicly on Twitter, Trump has told friends and associates that the investigation is a “witch hunt” and that others are out to get him. “It’s basically all he talks about on the phone,” said one adviser who has spoken with Trump and his top aides.

Aides have tried to change the subject, with little luck. Advisers have tried to buck up the president by telling him to be patient, agreeing that it is a “witch hunt” and urging him to just let it play out — and reassuring him “eventually you will be cleared,” in the words of one.

“If he didn’t send about 15 tweets that he’s done, he’d be in much better shape than he is right now,” said Douglas Brinkley, a presidential historian at Rice University. “I kept thinking he would change from these self-destructive tendencies, but he may be the first president in history who brings himself down because he just can’t help himself.”

I didn't believe the tapes existed at first but I cannot think of a way this behavior makes any sense, even by some dumb Trump logic, unless they're real.

Also, I think a lot of people are looking at the Tweet storm -> 2 hours later -> Bad poo poo in the media

Its not that it gets leaked in response to his tantrums, its that the paper reaches out to the WH for comment before publishing and then he rages all over twitter when he finds out
