Hoo, boy. He’s at it again.
Donald Trump has obviously been spending his valuable time worrying about the press instead of listening to intelligence briefings or setting up his Cabinet. You know, all those things that he probably should be focused on three weeks before his inauguration into the biggest job in the world.
The President-elect just sent out two new tweets claiming that the media has it all wrong.
The whole world saw the shock on the face of candidate Trump and his team as the electoral votes came rolling in. He never expected to win that night.
Everyone knows that.
Which is no doubt why the President-elect felt it necessary to send these out into the Twittersphere.
Various media outlets and pundits say that I thought I was going to lose the election. Wrong, it all came together in the last week and…..

I thought and felt I would win big, easily over the fabled 270 (306). When they cancelled fireworks, they knew, and so did I.

Oh, sure. He knew he’d win bigly.
No doubt that’s why his transition team was essentially nonexistent. I’m sure that’s why he had to fire Chris Christy and throw out everything he had done. Just because he was so prepared for victory that he figured he’d have to start from scratch.
Sure. Donald Trump totally expected to become President.
The responses on Twitter were, of course, immediate and epic.
You didn't win. You lost by 2%.

The closer we get to the actual inauguration, the more ridiculous it is to see what Donald Trump shoots out on Twitter. It is beyond cringeworthy to watch the man who will soon be the “leader of the free world” as he desperately attempts to convince the world that he is as close to perfect as a human could be and that everybody loves him.
He knew he’d win. The “mainstream media” has it all wrong. Again.
He knew he’d win. That gobsmacked look on his face was all a joke.
Pathetic.
