Half his tweets show utter weakness. They are plaintive, shrill little cries... He is whiny, weepy and self-pitying. He throws himself, sobbing, on the body politic. He's a drama queen."

In fact, today I said we ought to change it from the word 'swamp' to the word 'cesspool' or perhaps to the word 'sewer,' but it's not good. Not good. And I see what's going on... Fake news, fake news... And believe me, I'd much rather be with you... The Scout Law says a Scout is trustworthy, loyal. We could really use some loyalty, I will tell you that..."
    -- Trump, speaking to 40,000 Boy Scouts at the quadrennial national Jamboree
