Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) sent a bizarre tweet urging staff at the White House to show President Donald Trump a Wall Street Journal op-ed by Daniel Henninger in an effort to influence the President's trade policy, which is suffering due to Trump's propensity for imposing tariffs and advancing trade wars.

But it wasn't the contents of the article that got people's attention. It was the way Grassley spoke of Trump in the tweet.


See if you can spot what sticks out.

The tweet is addressed not to Trump but to "Whoever keeps watch on" him. However accidentally, it continued the image of a President who needs constant mollification and ceaseless supervision, lest an explosive tweet—or, y'know, actual explosives—be deployed before they can stop him.

Even Trump's own staff has admitted that Trump has the attitude and attention span of a toddler.

Remember the infamous "anonymous" op-ed from a high-ranking Trump official in the New York Times, which said:

"It may be cold comfort in this chaotic era, but Americans should know that there are adults in the room. We fully recognize what is happening. And we are trying to do what's right even when Donald Trump won't."

The assurance in the op-ed that there were "adults in the room" wasn't a comfort at all as long as there was a child behind the Resolute Desk.

Americans felt the same about Grassley's tweet.





They also pointed out the word for "someone who keeps watch on" a dependent child.



It didn't exactly boost Trump's credibility.



Let's hope Trump is being watched over by a "very stable genius."

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
