100 WTF Moments From Trump's First 100 Days
Saturday marks Donald Trump's 100th day in office, a milestone the president considers "ridiculous." While he doesn't have many achievements to tout fewer even than William Henry Harrison, who died one month into his term, per one critic Trump's first 100 days have been a wild, and sometimes terrifying, ride. You might even call his short time in office... ridiculous.
Here, in chronological order, are just some of the completely absurd things that have happened since Trump's swearing-in.
January 20th: Trump delivered a bizarrely dark inauguration speech, invoking the phrase "American carnage." As George W. Bush reportedly noted at the time, it was "some weird shit."
January 20th: The Trump administration locked down all Department of Interior social media accounts because the National Parks Service retweeted side-by-side comparisons of the crowds at Obama's and Trump's respective inaugurations.
January 20th: Five hours into his term, Trump filed paperwork for his 2020 re-election bid.
January 21st: Sean Spicer convened a news briefing to declare, falsely, that "this was the largest crowd to witness an inauguration, period."
