Isn't Randy Quaid famously batshit?  You're not helping yourself by re-tweeting a dude like that, Donald.

P.S. shitter's full

Yeah Randy Quaid went off the deep end long ago  :lol:

Legal issues
In 2006, Quaid, who acted in Brokeback Mountain, sued the producers for misrepresenting the film as "a low-budget, art house film with no prospect of making money" in order to secure Quaid's professional acting services at below-market rates.[28][29]

In 2009, Quaid and his wife were arrested for allegedly defrauding an innkeeper in Santa Barbara by using an invalid credit card to pay a $10,000 bill. The two were released on bail that evening and subsequently paid most of the bill.[30] However, they repeatedly failed to appear in court and warrants were issued for their arrest.[31] They eventually appeared in court the following year where the case was dismissed against Randy Quaid for lack of evidence. His wife, Evi, pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor count of fraud and was placed on probation for three years in addition to having to spend 240 hours in community service.[32]

In September 2010 Quaid and his wife were charged with burglary after they spent five days occupying the guest house in a vacant home they once owned in Santa Barbara. The Quaids claimed that the home was wrongfully transferred to a third party by the use of a forged signature. Warrants for their arrest were issued after they failed to appear in court, and as a result, they also forfeited their bail.[33]

In October 2010, Quaid and his wife moved to Vancouver, Canada, where they sought asylum protections under the Canadian Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, stating that they feared for their lives in the United States.[34][35][36] Border authorities arrested the couple for their outstanding warrants in the U.S. After they were granted bail, Quaid gave a press interview,[37] and later, the couple's asylum-seeking story was detailed in an article by U.S. magazine Vanity Fair.[38][39] Quaid's wife Evi was granted Canadian citizenship in 2011, based on her parentage, and Randy sought permanent resident status as the husband of a Canadian.[40] In January 2013, this request was denied.[41]

Quaid lived in Montreal beginning in 2013 and was briefly arrested for not checking in as a non-resident.[42] In 2014, the Quaids sued the State Department for revoking their passports in 2011.[43][44] By 2015, Quaid's legal appeals in Canada were exhausted, and he was notified he was to be deported.[45] One week prior to the deportation date, the couple drove across the Canadian border into Vermont, where they were detained by U.S. Customs. The couple were detained pending an extradition procedure ordered by the State of California.

On review of the State of California's case, the Vermont judge found irregularities, and voided the extradition request,[46] whereupon the Quaids were released and allowed to remain in Vermont without conditions.[47] With his lawyer at his side, Quaid asserted in a press conference that the reason he was released was that the California judge had issued an arrest warrant before the alleged crime had been committed.[48] In principle, the Quaids were subject to arrest should he travel to another state, yet in 2017, they vacationed in California without incident. He and his wife plan to make Vermont their permanent home since his wife grew up there.[49]

Trump leaves the briefing room today, with the press shouting questions at him. After he's gone one of them audibly says: "Well, that was weird as shit."

Don't know why he's even bothering?

He has to remain relevant to his crazy base to continue gritting them for contributions.

I was thinking that he will keep on hitting up donors for his legal defense against tax fraud and bogus nonprofit charges.

It still comes as a surprise to some that Trump isn't a president, but a grifter who makes the barest pretence of being a president.

You are being too harsh.   Perhaps he honestly though Americans had no way of finding out what the Dow was without his PSA

I think that for a large swath of people, the President is the only source of information.
