Day 2

A fantastic day and evening in Washington D.C.Thank you to @FoxNews and so many other news outlets for the GREAT reviews of the speech!

Fantasy stayed, a vein engorged
with ready views of epoch.

3:53 AM – 21 Jan 2017

I am honored to serve you, the great American People, as your 45th President of the United States!
                          @POTUS

Imagine a word. Choose “serve” if you hear it.
A rich people listen; the undeserved shut off an ear.

9:18 AM – 21 Jan 2017

Day 3

Had a great meeting at CIA Headquarters yesterday, packed house, paid great respect to Wall, long standing ovations, amazing people. WIN!

Hatter made the head quit the trust of our eyes. Speak to
a wall, a long stain in office. A scene of people lean in.

4:35 AM – 22 Jan 2017

Watched protests yesterday but was under the impression that we just had an election! Why didn’t these people vote? Celebs hurt cause badly.

What a protest is us
to share a day,
to wash in the map
with justice in a
wide pull of feet took body.

4:47 AM – 22 Jan 2017

Wow, television ratings just out: 31 million people watched the Inauguration, 11 million more than the very good ratings from 4 years ago!

What a love of signs suggests: a head thin of rational filling,
rich in the fairy food ratings farm. Four years of faux.

4:51 AM – 22 Jan 2017

Peaceful protests are a hallmark of our democracy. Even if I don’t always agree, I recognize the rights of people to express their views.

Peace is full of protest, yes, a real mark of
who we are, of course. So hear us people,
let us press the rough hues.

6:23 AM – 22 Jan 2017

Day 6

I will be asking for a major investigation into VOTER FRAUD, including those registered to vote in two states, those who are illegal and….

You ill king, a form of stuck
fear afraid to include those surviving,
what ‘I’ is illegal?

4:10 AM – 25 Jan 2017

even, those registered to vote who are dead (and many for a long time). Depending on results, we will strengthen up voting procedures!

Even those survived are dead to you.
A human ends at the walls you
force shut your eyes.

4:13 AM – 25 Jan 2017

I will be making my Supreme Court pick on Thursday of next week.Thank you!

You will lay your mask on
justice, the wreckage on you.

4:17 AM – 25 Jan 2017

I will be interviewed by @DavidMuir tonight at 10 o’clock on @ABC. Will be my first interview from the White House. Enjoy!

I will be in the rearview, even if in awhile.
Be my resister for us now.

2:05 PM – 25 Jan 2017

Beginning today, the United States of America gets back control of its borders. Full speech from today @DHSgov: http://bit.ly/2jSZomhDHS 

Begin the United States shove
of righteousness. A border is
full of seared off ability to see us.

4:03 PM – 25 Jan 2017

As your President, I have no higher duty than to protect the lives of the American people.

As we sit in fear for ourselves, for us as a people.

6:14 PM – 25 Jan 2017

Interview with David Muir of @ABC News in 10 minutes. Enjoy!

I need your view. I video. I see
news singing my news, and joy!

I will be making up
bright truth wreckage.

8:32 PM – 25 Jan 2017

Day 9

The failing @nytimes has been wrong about me from the very beginning. Said I would lose the primaries, then the general election. FAKE NEWS!

The fall of this has-been, rung
by heavy rung, relies on fake cues.

5:04 AM – 28 Jan 2017

Thr coverage about me in the @nytimes and the @washingtonpost gas been so false and angry that the times actually apologized to its…..

There is suffering tonight. I message the wash of dawn
gaping sun, come as it does, as it does.

5:08 AM – 28 Jan 2017

…dwindling subscribers and readers.They got me wrong right from the beginning and still have not changed course, and never will. DISHONEST

To wind a lie up, script a readership. Begin again.
A still vein unchanging never will die honest.

5:16 AM – 28 Jan 2017

Today, we remember the crew of the Space Shuttle Challenger, 31 years later. #NeverForget

Today we remember
there is a space we share,
hurting, our alien never, we.
