The nation's eyes briefly diverted from the shit show that is Donald Trump's very existence to Christine Blasley Ford's testimony about alleged attempted rapist Brett Kavanaugh today in DC. And yet, that didn't stop Donald from using his short moment out of the spotlight to embarrass us as a species. Let's get started, shall we?

Remember before computers were a thing and every time you went to visit a friends' house you would be subjected to an hour-long slide show about the family's last visit to Disney world? That's what this tweet was.


How many times do you think he's watched it? In other news, Donald has delayed his meeting with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who reportedly talked about invoking the 25th Amendment to strip Donald (sorry for that image) of his place in the Oval Office. From USA Today:

The urgency for a meeting appeared to abate after Trump signaled his support Wednesday for the deputy attorney general to remain in his post despite reports that Rosenstein discussed invoking the 25th Amendment last year to seek the president's removal from office.

"My preference would be to keep (Rosenstein), and let him finish out," Trump told reporters following a meeting of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, apparently referring to Rosenstein's oversight of the ongoing investigation into Russia's interference in the 2016 election.

Donald might not have time for Rosenstein but he does have time to make everyone's life worse. Forbes' reports:

Tough new rules proposed by the Trump Administration would make it effectively impossible for immigrants to come to the US to work as home health aides or as staff at nursing homes or assisted living facilities.

Because at least one million aides (one of every four) is an immigrant, the complex rules Trump proposed over the weekend would dry up a major source of personal care for older adults or younger people with disabilities. At a time when the pool of available family caregivers is shrinking dramatically, the long-term result could be a caregiving catastrophe.

His hands might be tiny but his brain is verrrrry large (fact checked needed on this). From the Atlantic:

Pointing to a recent television appearance by the China expert Michael Pillsbury, Trump noted that Pillsbury “was saying that China has total respect for Donald Trump and for Donald Trump’s very, very large brain.”

Speaking of China, Trump is sure, just sure, that it was China who interfered in the U.S. elections, not his buddy Vlad over in Moscow. From The New Yorker:

“They do not want me, or us, to win, because I am the first President ever to challenge China on trade,” he told the fourteen other Security Council delegations, many led by heads of state. Hours later, during a meandering, hour-long press conference, the President said, “One thing they are trying to do is convince people to go against Donald Trump.” He said that the Chinese President, Xi Jinping, who was one of his earliest visitors after moving into the White House, “may not be a friend of mine anymore.”

Ol' big brain couldn't handle seeing Justin Trudeau at the UN this week. Take it away, Bloomberg News:

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tried more than once to speak with President Donald Trump on the sidelines of UN meetings, a U.S. official says, but Trump avoided the Canadian leader because of a standoff in trade talks.

It was those attempted discussions that Trump was referring when he said he refused to meet Trudeau, the official said, rather than a request for a formal bilateral sit-down meeting, which the Canadians said they did not make. One such attempted encounter led to a brief handshake, with Trump remaining seated when approached by the prime minister.

It has been 615 days until Donald Trump took office. Only 845 left to go.
