Everyone is laughing at Fox News for its 'alert' about Trump working from the White House

Fox News has been widely mocked after it tweeted a “news alert” stating that Donald Trump was working over the weekend.

The news organisation, which is one of the few media outlets to support the controversial president, whose approval ratings are at a historic low for a new president, shared the bizarre update yesterday.

“News Alert: @POTUS spending weekend working at the White House,” the tweet read.

However, many pointed out that this simply wasn’t true — and, even if it was, would it really be news?

Over the weekend, Trump twice travelled to the Trump National Golf Club in Virginia on Saturday and Sunday, where he chaired meetings.

Trump headed back to the White House after his Saturday meetings, and later had dinner at Trump International Hotel nearby.

Sunday’s trip marked the president’s 13th visit to a golf course since taking office, according to The Hill.

Much has been made of how Trump spends his weekends — specifically his trips to Mar-A-Lago, Florida, and the business meetings he holds there.

It was here Trump and his aides coordinated their response to North Korea’s missile test in full view of diners.

Today, it was announced that Donald Trump is planning to overhaul US federal bureaucracy by creating a new division headed up by his son-in-law Jared Kushner.

The move comes after it was revealed that Ivanka Trump, daughter of the president and wife of Kushner, would be given a West Wing office and security clearance, despite not holding an official government role.

In a move that will likely renew accusations of nepotism, Kushner will be promoted from the role of senior adviser to lead The White House Office of American Innovation.

The announcement will be made following a difficult fortnight for Trump in which the Republican bill to repeal Obamacare imploded and allegations of Russian interference in the election also continued dog him.

Wondering who's going for the most threads that can be directly translated as "I have the mentality of a jilted 17 year old girl that just got broken up with and the world will know my anger!"

Outerbanks?

VolProf?

Carlos?

Or conversely, the "I have the mentality of a 17 year old dating the star QB and the world will know how awesome I truly am!"

JoeVol320?

Franklin Pierce?

Posting this garbage in another thread was not enough, this liberal hack felt the need to start a new thread on it. Can we ban these loons from starting so many pointless threads?

Wait until he makes a huge mistake and gets tons of criticism from all quarters. He won't be able to stand it, because he's all about his ego.

We could do 100 variations of this thread.

It all stems back to the fact that Trump will say whatever he thinks his audience wants to hear and has no conviction in any of it.

Most of them at least attempt to maintain a consistent narrative.

For example, the Iraq war. Trump was initially for it, then turned against it. OK, plenty of politicians did that. But still to this day you can't pin down Trump's view on American involvement in Iraq because he says contradictory things on if we should be there.

I think the point is no other Politician uses social media the way Trump does to say it. And very few if any does it with the bravado he does while facts clearly show he is more often than not wrong and hypocritical.
