Most Unkindest Cut

The real reason the emperor had such a meltdown Friday morning over the recusal of Attorney General Sessions, per whatthefuckjusthappenedtoday.com:

Trump angry and frustrated at staff over Sessions fallout for stealing his thunder in the wake of his address to Congress. “Nobody has seen him that upset,” one source said, adding the feeling was the communications team allowed the Sessions news, which the administration deemed a nonstory, to overtake the narrative. (CNN)

It distracted the media from their job of talking about how great Trump was on Tuesday night. Unforgivable!

Then there's this sublime line from CNN, quoted by Atrios:

Trump is upset because he doesn't believe he is getting the credit he thinks he deserves for his time in office so far because of self-inflicted wounds and missteps, the source said. An informed presidential ally outside government but close to the President said Trump was really angry about having a "mini disaster" a week. The President's mood is adding to tremendous pressure inside the West Wing and aides have been seen in tears in recent days at multiple meetings.

His "time in office so far", all 42 days, is getting spoiled by "self-inflicted wounds" so naturally he's furious at everybody except himself.
