Donald Trump’s body language as someone basically calls him an idiot is a joy to watch
This is the best minute of TV you’ll see this week as a US governor basically tells Donald Trump his idea to arm teachers is idiotic and he should think about laying off Twitter for a bit.
Sit back and enjoy the so-called president’s body language as he struggles to cope with the concept of someone disagreeing with him.

This is what happens when someone says no to a man who is only used to people saying yes. Brilliant.

He just can't believe anyone's allowed to disagree and challenge him in public.

His body language is SCREAMING and he can’t even see himself doing it… he is ‘childlike’ in the truest sense of the word.

Also, you can tell he can barely keep attention to actually listen and absorb what he’s saying.

Proud of my governor.

But is it the best tactic, someone wondered.
He should've stopped short of the "less tweeting" comment. In fact he should've approached the whole statement a little more carefully, because it's not at all beneficial to our cause to insult him. He just stops listening.

Probably.
He only listens to what he wants to hear anyway. In addition to his relentless obscenity Trump is an illegitimate Russian implant and it's well overdue for him to be denied the customary deference of the office.

Yeah I agree with all that. He doesn't deserve anything but contempt. I was just thinking in terms of how to sway him, since when it comes down to it, he has a tremendous amount of power to set the discourse.

Never easy to work out what’s going on in Trump’s mind – apart from ‘nothing’ – but these people tried.
He's deep in thought, figuring out his future nasty tweets attacking @GovInslee.

He is thinking, "Is he short, fat, tall, funny-looking? Does he have some quirk I can exploit?"

He is plotting in his head: "How can I get rid of the State of Washington? We don't need two Washingtons. I already live in the BEST Washington there is. Its the only Washington anyone wants to live it. The GREATEST Washington. Executive Order?"

The only way this possibly could have been better is if he’d had a drink of water during it.
