Towards the conclusion of his Joint Address to Congress, President Trump drew derisive laughter when he stated, "The time for trivial fights is behind us."
Trivial fights are Trump's stock and trade.
Trump's address to Congress took place on the evening of February 28th.
Less than 48 hours later, Trump had accused Democrats of conducting a "witch hunt" against Attorney General Jeff Sessions concerning his less than candid response on whether he had dealings with the Russians during the election campaign,
By Friday morning, Trump said it was "pathetic" that Democrats hadn't confirmed all of his cabinet choices (last I checked Republicans are in firm control of the Senate). By Friday afternoon, he was demanding investigations of both Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi for their contacts with Russian officials. While I find both Schumer and Pelosi to be contemptible figures neither of them denied having meetings with Russian officials while under oath.
This morning shortly after 3:30, President Trump had accused President Obama of wiretapping Trump Tower. Two hours later, he was calling Arnold Schwarzenegger pathetic after he had announced his departure from The Apprentice claiming he had been fired.
Despite his words to the contrary, President Trump is still fighting the trivial fight.
