Drip, drip, drip

Trump tells people Amazon has gotten a free ride from taxpayers and cushy treatment from the U.S. Postal Service. His real estate buddies tell him — and he agrees — that Amazon is killing shopping malls and brick-and-mortar retailers. [“He’s obsessed with Amazon,” a source said. “Obsessed.”]

"Per two senior administration officials, Trump continued to rail privately about the omnibus bill, and has become convinced of things that aren’t true about it," the N.Y. Times' Maggie Haberman tweeted yesterday.

Trump's conviction that the Paris climate deal is "killing" the U.S., when in reality it's a voluntary and pretty toothless agreement.

Trump officials like Gary Cohn who favor free trade have felt like "Groundhog Day" trying to explain trade deficits to him.

Perhaps a big factor in why Cohn is leaving. Tired of trying to work for a "fucking moron" knowing his own name is on the record as the bottom line.

 ...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
