Read About Ivanka Trump's Plotting To Return To The White House On THE DAILY

Trump has been stomping his feet and holding his breath on Twitter in a bid to upstage the funeral of Sen. John McCain.

Trump retweeted Fox News:

Trump ranted about the Steele Dossier via more Fox News quotes:

Trump got really desperate and threatened Canada:

John McCain was getting the attention that Trump craves

Trump can’t handle the fact that McCain was getting the attention that he feels should belong to him all of the time. There was not a single mention of John McCain by the president on Saturday. Trump can’t handle someone else being regarded as an American hero, because in his mind, he is America’s biggest hero.

This is more than unpresidential behavior. It is the desperation of a small and insecure man who can’t stop putting his self-interest ahead of his country.
