    I think you’re over-thinking this. Trump is acting like a fool. The best response is to just laugh at him when he acts like a fool.

    Sure there are foolish things he does that has serious consequences, those need a serious response. This isn’t one of those things.

    On this? Laughing at him is the best and most honest response.

    He said he might also rename the Atlantic and/or Pacific Ocean too. Someone needs to tell him it’s a good idea and he should definitively do that. Then we laugh at him some more.

      It’s the difference between walking away from a blowhard threatening to fight you, and telling them to fuck off, before walking away. A twitter post on it is about as casual a fuck off as a government can give.

        Wab Kinew was laughing his ass off about it.

        I feel like the general tone of Carney’s message is “ok weirdo, you do you” but just in a dry and mature way. Which seems about right.
