There should be a whole youtube channel for it. Like that kids react and old people react. Normal people react to a Trump press conference.

Saw this joke on reddit and I thought I'd share:
"There's a term for Presidents like Trump... not two though"

Travel ban v2.0 incoming next week.
Quote:
President Donald Trump said he will sign an executive order next week that updates his contentious January 27th ban on travelers and refugees from seven majority-Muslim countries. Last week, a federal appeals court ruled to keep a stay on the president's travel ban, which has been openly opposed by leaders in the technology industry including Google and Facebook. The new executive order will address the legal pitfalls that have paused the first travel ban, Trump said at a press conference today.
"The new order is going to be very much tailored to what I consider to be a very bad decision," he said. "But we can tailor the order to that decision and get just about everything, in some ways more, but we're tailoring it now to the decision."

I wonder what they'll find...
Scott Pruitt, President Donald Trump's pick to lead the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Attorney General of Oklahoma, has spent two years avoiding requests to release more than 3,000 emails between his office and fossil fuel companies.
On Thursday, one day before the Senate is due to vote on Pruitt's confirmation, an Oklahoma judge ordered their release, according to E&E News.

It's at the point now where this is one of the only threads I'm keeping up with on CP. It moves so fast, and there's almost always something new and entertaining to read. It's honestly hard to keep up with

I was in conference all day so I missed the Trump presser, but judging from the comments in this thread it was his most insane moment yet which seems to be the one thing you can count on from Trump: Just when you thought it couldn't get any more mentally unhinged, Trump reveals there's more levels than you could have ever imagined. I wonder if I should dare watch it or just go with the transcripts.
Also his choice to replace Flynn has refused the job. Would be totally amazing/hilarious if he dropped out after the presser.

It's a whirlwind. It's bizarre to think all of this craziness has happened in just under 4 weeks.

Shortly after the presser, Trump sent out this email. Link has a copy the survey.

There was talk about Trump's data operation, targeted ads, dark posts, and voter suppression efforts during the campaign... this kind of brings it all together from a high level view. Sounds like sci-fi, and I'm skeptical about the overall level of coordination and intent, but it's still something that's being done. Long read but interesting IMO.
