After daily briefings, many feel it's clear President Donald Trump's priorities are intact.

First comes Donald Trump, then everything else comes second.


Petty comments, rants about rivals and whining about impeachment still dominate the President's remarks during a global public health crisis.

During Saturday's press briefing, Trump whinged about the unnamed whistleblower after firing Michael Atkinson, the intelligence community inspector general who followed proper rules, procedures and public law.

The reason? Atkinson followed proper rules, procedures and public law instead of the will of Trump.

The President said:

"That man is a disgrace to IGs. Let's go. Next. He's a total disgrace. He's not a Trump fan, I can tell you that."
"You know who the whistleblower is, and so do you, and so does everybody in this room, and so do I. Everybody knows."
"But they give this whistleblower a status that he doesn't deserve. He's a fake whistleblower. And frankly, somebody ought to sue his ass off."

Trump clearly is still preoccupied with being impeached for his actions.

The next question concerned New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and the state's desperate need for ventilators. The Chinese government is even stepping up to offer help.

Trump interrupted the question to say:

"Let me tell you what he didn't say. Two very good friends of mine brought him those whistleblowers...ventilators, right?"

You can see the moment here:

Trump's latest gaffe didn't go unnoticed.

People called out the President and questioned his mental stability as well as his fans' hypocrisy.










The President's behavior in briefings is not winning him fans outside of his already devoted followers.

Maybe it's time to step away from the podium and let qualified medical experts do all the talking.

Talk of the 25th amendment—which provides an avenue for removal of any President physically or mentally incapacitated—is also on the rise as a result of the President's performance.

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Dem Rep. Sarah McBride Perfectly Shames Nancy Mace For Her Transphobic Response To McBride's Condemnation Of Trump

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
