    Basically the equivalent of trying to quit after being fired.

    It was a big deal at the time.

    I guess Timmy would want to visit Trump, no?

    The thing that would bother me most if I was American: Has Mr. President really no more urgent tasks at hand than such a childish pissing contest?

    Conservatives love to call liberals "snowflakes" but when it comes right down to it, Trump is the ultimate snowflake. He is thin-skinned and feels the need to lash out against his critics whenever his feelings get hurt. This Curry business and revoking the invitation is just another example of this.

    Dudes like a blister on a part of your hand that you would think wouldn’t hurt. You get one and are like, “Uh oh I think this is going to be painful soon”, then after about 10 minutes of first getting the blister it isn’t so bad. Ya it kinda hurts, but it’s alright you can deal with it. Then you go to sleep, wake up and your blister is now stuck to the bedsheets and you gotta rip it off and it hurts like hell. You end up crying all the way downstairs, start making coffee and it doesn’t hurt as much anymore, put your hand on the hot cup of coffee and it freaking hurts again. So now you can’t even enjoy something you like without this blister getting in the way. You drive to work, but now you have to figure out some odd way to hold the wheel so your blister doesn’t touch it. All day at work it doesn’t create so much pain you cry, but you feel it always. Finally it’s home time, you even remember the weird driving technique from the morning, so you’re a little bit happy. That good catchy song comes on the radio, you’re now singing forgetting you even have a blister. Get home, your puppy is all happy to see you! You’re now REALLY happy, you strap on his leash and take him for a walk. He sees a squirell and runs, the leash is right over your blister and it KILLS, the pain of 1,000 fires against your bare skin is exactly what your feeling. You let go of the leash in pain, your puppy runs away, gets picked up by a stranger and is taken from you. You pass out from the pain. You come too, you’re wet, but it hasn’t rained. You’ve peed yourself from the pain. Now you put your hand down to lift your sorry butt off the ground and go home. You’ve forgotten about your blister again and you scream out in pain.

    Trump is a blister on your hand you constantly forget about, that’s ruining your life in a way you didn’t think could happen.
