6. When it emerged that he doesn’t read his briefings, in spite of the intelligence service making a simplified version for him

How is it possible that there's always a tweet? (Obama did, in fact, read his intelligence briefings, unlike the guy who published this missive in 2014.) https://t.co/kwkYNoTX0A

7. After repeatedly praising Fox News for being the only trustworthy reporters

There's always a tweet to be found of Trump contradicting himself and/or bashing his supposed "allies". Here's one from a while ago expressing what he thinks of what is now essentially his "State TV". pic.twitter.com/ozAzkdq7Fp
