The weekend news was dominated by the images of NFL players and some owners kneeling during the national anthem. By now we all know the story of Trump's latest shinny object. He is quite proud of himself for once again turning the nation's attention toward himself.
Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump sounded very satisfied with his recent remarks on patriotism and the NFL in a dinner with conservative group leaders at the White House Monday night, according to a person who attended the event.
"It's really caught on. It's really caught on," Trump said of his NFL comments to attendees at the dinner, according to someone who attended. "I said what millions of Americans were thinking."
"You could really tell he was satisfied," this person in the room said about the President's comments.
So, the president creates his own little (big?) controversy stirring the racial relations pot once again while claiming basically "Who me? I never said anything about race!!"
Meanwhile he responds via Twitter about Iran launching a missile test. The test turns out to be fake news several months old.
Donald Trump was tricked into an angry public outburst by a seven-month-old video of an Iranian missile launch, US officials have revealed.
The President responded to claims over the weekend on Iranian state television that the Persian country had tested a medium-range ballistic missile, saying that a purported video of that test proved the country was a danger to Middle Eastern ally Israel.
But, as it turns out, the videos were actually seven months old, US officials told Fox News. Iran has not launched a missile recently.
"Iran just test-fired a Ballistic Missile capable of reaching Israel," Mr Trump wrote in a tweet after the video was aired on television. "They are also working with North Korea. Not much of an agreement we have!"
Iran closes border with Iraqi Kurdistan over independence vote
The tweet, and the faked video, came just after the President said that the Iran nuclear agreement reached by his predecessor was an "embarrassment" to the United States, and insulted the Iranian regime in front of the entire world at the United Nations General Assembly.

And, as if there is not enough going on let us not forget the playground bully contest between Donald and the North Korean leader which is seemingly escalating by the tweet.
This is such a dangerous person. We are sitting idly by while he continues to think he is the star of a reality show? Sadly he does not seem to realize that he is president. He thinks perhaps that he is like the guy in the movie The Truman Show? When is he going to walk off the stage? When is someone going to rewrite his script?
Does the Constitution offer remedies in cases such as this? Is there no one near him to talk sense to explain situations to him? Will the world witness a nuclear exchange before DC acts to restrain Donald? What will it take?
