Der Führer, President @realDonaldTrump, might not have drawn a record-breaking inauguration crowd (he didn't), but things are looking up for him.
Pollsters have noticed that more and more people are recognizing the amazing job that he isn't doing.
In fact (actual, not alternative), Trump is now being widely recognized as the most unpopular president in modern history—not just in America, but abroad as well.
That's quite a coup for him.
But, wait... there's more!
In just his first two weeks in office, Trump is already facing an unpresidented number of lawsuits over his Muslim ban executive order, easily surpassing the number faced by his three most recent predecessors combined.
Sadly, thus far, the so-called "judges" hearing these cases haven't been very receptive to the authoritarian arguments put forward by the administration.
It's almost like they're hoping for another Bowling Green massacre.

Elsewhere...
A Republican party official in Michigan suggested that another Kent State might be the way to deal with protestors.
Dan Adamini, former chair and current secretary of the Marquette County Republican Party, indicated that a single death might be sufficient to end student protests this time around.
"I'm thinking another Kent State might be the only solution protest stopped after only one death," he posted on Facebook on Thursday. "They do it because they know there are no consequences yet."
He also tweeted: "Violent protesters who shut down free speech? Time for another Kent State perhaps. One bullet stops a lot of thuggery."
Meanwhile...
A Catholic priest urged protestors to kill themselves.
The pastor of a largely immigrant Catholic church in Queens has a suggestion for his anti-Trump parishioners: Go take a flying leap off the nearest building.
"Show your hate for Trump. Do it for social justice. #JumpAgainstTrump," read a meme posted by the Rev. Philip Pizzo just hours after he celebrated Sunday Mass.
The message included an illustration of a man plummeting from a skyscraper.
Pizzo, 67, told The Post on Monday that he just thought the "Jump Against Trump" meme was "funny."
"I do not promote suicide," Pizzo insisted. "I've helped many people over the years, and it does not promote suicide. It was funny."
And, finally...
Rep. Dave Brat (R-VA) grew tired of all these women getting up in his grill.
Rep. Dave Brat, R-7th, is feeling some political pressure as Republicans in Congress move to repeal the Affordable Care Act.
"Since Obamacare and these issues have come up, the women are in my grill no matter where I go," Brat told an audience Saturday at a meeting of conservative groups at Hanover Tavern.
"They come up — 'When is your next town hall?' And believe me, it's not to give positive input."
"I had one woman on my Facebook say she was going to get up in my grill," he said. "There's paid protesters... paid activists on the far left, not my Democratic friends I go to church with."
"They're being paid to go around and raise havoc."
Never give up, never surrender!
