Trump gets a folder full of positive news about himself twice a day
It’s known as the “propaganda document”
By Alex Thompson Aug 9, 2017
https://news.vice.com/story/trump-folder-positive-news-white-house

Twice a day since the beginning of the Trump administration, a special folder is prepared for the president. The first document is prepared around 9:30 a.m. and the follow-up, around 4:30 p.m. Former Chief of Staff Reince Priebus and former Press Secretary Sean Spicer both wanted the privilege of delivering the 20-to-25-page packet to President Trump personally, White House sources say.

These sensitive papers, described to VICE News by three current and former White House officials, don’t contain top-secret intelligence or updates on legislative initiatives. Instead, the folders are filled with screenshots of positive cable news chyrons (those lower-third headlines and crawls), admiring tweets, transcripts of fawning TV interviews, praise-filled news stories, and sometimes just pictures of Trump on TV looking powerful.

FWIW.  Which, considering it's Vice, might not be much.

Trump is truly Gilded, in just about every aspect of the term.

Frightening.

Sounds like a good idea, Trump's administration is one based on Christianity, he has dealt evils like ISIS deadly blows, most pro-life President ever. Time to combat what the media in general say.

He should get a bipartisan daily affirmation from Senator 'Stuart Smalley' Franken.

You remind me so much of the DPRK Tweets about Kim Jong Un.

DPRK News Service‏ @DPRK_News  Jul 22

DPRK News Service Retweeted Donald J. Trump
Marshal Kim Jong-Un lives exemplary life; has no need to muse in early morning hours about pardoning himself for high crimes and treasons.

Hell, I know some people who would offer him the same service for free, and then the paid employees could get actual work done.  Assuming what is described actually happens.

@Suppressed , you have a quote from South Park under your name.

This reminds me of the episode where Cartman had Butters go through all his social media and cherry pick the good news or make Franken-bites from the bad stuff, so Cartman could have a safe space and not cry. The other kids HAVE to like me because I'm special and they have to respect my authoritas. :)
