"Nobody likes me," he said, confounded at how his administration's health experts could be receiving accolades while he is accused of ignoring and denying the raging public health crisis. "It can only be my personality," Trump said, "that's all."
That's one answer.

Trump's attempts to regain standing have only exacerbated the divorce and led to worries he is weighing down his party's ability to move forward. Long dismissive of the Washington establishment, Trump has shown little concern at how his moves are forcing allies into awkward positions or alienating himself from longstanding norms.

"I read it. I laughed. I thought my gosh this is going to consume a lot of people," said GOP Sen. Kevin Cramer. "I long ago stop being surprised by the things he does that other presidents wouldn't have done, but I also understand why he does it and why his base enjoys it so much."

“Divorce”??? Hell no, I’m gonna renew my vows in November.
A little weekend creative writing
Fake news CNN.

ah yes- this weeks narrative for the media.
Yesterday it was “McConnell telling senators to distance themselves from Trump”

And now Trump complains nobody like him.
Now he tells us? Nobody liked him since he got the 2016 nomination.
Remember how the then Gov. John Kasich boycotted the RNC convention held in his own state?
That was just a pre cursor.
Don’t let it get to you so much :-)
Honestly the fanatical following Trump has of tens of millions of people would terrifiy me if he was a Democrat.
He is a rockstar to tens of millions. And it’s pretty easy to see why.
He is as close to one of us as anyone else in that rotten hole DC
I think it’s awesome that these folks can get exact quotes from Trump’s private conversations. I am very impressed.
Oh, wait. It’s CNN. They lie more than Stalin did. Never mind.
He’s certainly entitled to feel that way given the 24/7 mass media insults and stab in the back mean comments by communists and demented A- holes galore. But if he could realize there are at least 75 percent of Americans who either respect and/ or admire or live him? They just don’t have access to the media to be heard
give it up, CNN.
how you have any audience whatsoever is a great mystery.
pity you automatically receive a share from cable revenue.
Like TV character Monk who calls his gift a blessing and a curse, so is being right. It’s a blessing because you’re right, and a curse because everyone hates you for it. Such is the perversity of the human condition.
Trump IS forward for the Republican Party.
It’s a shame so many of them have to be DRAGGED in that direction.
They have been Stockholm Syndromed into liking what they get in the backside from the Donks.
here we go again posting propaganda articles from fake news CNN!
Agreed!
Donald Trump is the only hope the Republicans and Conservatives of survival from this merciless onslaught of the forces of anarchy and fascism.
I like the Stoics.
Epictetus is probably my favorite.
“’Nobody likes me,’ Trump complains, as even his allies fade..”
Tyre lort...Don’t worry Don tens of millions of us love ya!
Why would he care if anyone in the Beltway-Political-Media complex liked him anyway? CNN robo-pols can’t grasp that.
