‘Mine’s bigger’

Crowd for Trump Inauguration

Because he’s got nothing better to think about. (Pence does all that thinking stuff.)

On the morning after Donald Trump’s inauguration, acting National Park Service director Michael T. Reynolds received an extraordinary summons: The new president wanted to talk to him.

In a Saturday phone call, Trump personally ordered Reynolds to produce additional photographs of the previous day’s crowds on the National Mall, according to three individuals who have knowledge of the conversation. The president believed that they might prove that the media had lied in reporting that attendance had been no better than average.

Trump also expressed anger over a retweet sent from the agency’s account, in which side-by-side photographs showed far fewer people at his swearing-in than had shown up to see Barack Obama’s inaugural in 2009.

According to one account, Reynolds had been contacted by the White House and given a phone number to call. When he dialed it, he was told to hold for the president.

[…] Word rapidly spread through the agency and Washington. The individuals who informed The Washington Post about the call declined to be identified because of the sensitive nature of the conversation.

One thought on “‘Mine’s bigger’

  1. I am sick to death of hearing about the size of this ahole’s inaugural crowd. Can somebody please just send him on another victory tour? What does he not get about D.C. being black and just not that into him. And who thinks for one minute his meth-head fan base would bother to travel there or even have the money to get there?
