Former Aides Say Trump Consoled Himself with Ice Cream After Throwing a Tantrum During Campaign (Today in toddlerhood, goes to Yahoo)

Computer is running slower than molasses in the winter. Needs a restart. I’m going to hit the rack anyway, so catch y’all later.

From that article:

“With Manafort’s arrival, the meeting went from theater of the absurd to a scene out of The Godfather,” the authors recall.

According to Lewandowski and Bossie, Trump exploded at the mere sight of Manafort. “You think I’m a baby, Paul?” Trump reportedly screamed, as Giuliani and Bannon tried, unsuccessfully, to calm him down.

“Am I a baby, Paul? You think you’re so f—ing smart! Like you’re a genius! Well, you suck on TV!” Trump reportedly shouted.

“By the time the boss finished, Manafort looked like a crushed blue beer can,” the authors say. “Even Bannon felt sorry for him.”

And…

Trump’s temper tantrums and love of comfort food are recurring themes in the book.

One of his McDonald’s dinner orders consisted of “two Big Macs, two Fillet-O-Fish, and a chocolate malted” — and amounted to 2,530 calories.

“On Trump Force One there were four major food groups: McDonald’s, Kentucky Fried Chicken, pizza and Diet Coke,” the authors write.

Ugh.

And this book was written by his supporters. Wow.
