I've been working on a piece charting the worst indiscretions of Trump's presidency and I'd completely forgotten about the speech he gave to the Boy Scouts Jamboree in which he talked about a friend who had orgies on a boat https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2017/07/inappropriate-moments-trump-boy-scout-speech.html
Or the time he pushed the Prime Minister of Montenegro out of his way for a photo op https://twitter.com/CNNPolitics/status/867787850061893632
Or that time he cancelled a summit with the Danish prime minister because she wouldn't sell him Greenland https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1163961882945970176
Remember when Sean Spicer referred to concentration camps as "Holocaust centers" leading to this reaction from @AshleyRParker and the defining gif of the Trump years https://twitter.com/purpledocket/status/851871113852452865?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E851871113852452865%7Ctwgr%5Eshare_3%2Ccontainerclick_0&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Fnews%2Fthe-intersect%2Fwp%2F2017%2F04%2F14%2F5-questions-for-a-washington-post-reporter-whose-eyebrows-became-a-meme%2F

And I had completely forgotten that Trump wanted to build a moat around the US-Mexico border wall and fill it with snakes and alligators https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/01/us/politics/trump-border-wars.html
One of my favorite Trump outrages - the time he attacked Nordstrom's on Twitter because they said they would no longer carry Ivanka Trump's fashion brand https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/829356871848951809
Somehow I had forgotten this ...
Amazing that this one went down the memory hole ... that time Trump defended Putin against charges he had interfered in the 2016 election by saying he had offered him an "extremely strong" denial https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/stakes-high-expectations-low-trump-putin-meet-helsinki/story?id=56603366
Sharpiegate! https://www.bostonglobe.com/opinion/2019/09/06/sharpiegate-isn-just-silly-worrisome/yv6Io2zgCrlRydUVt96N9K/story.html
Then there was the time he gave a smiling thumbs up with a baby whose parents had been orphaned in the El Paso mass shooting
And who can forget the time he threw paper towels at hurricane survivors in Puerto Rico

The Mike Pence Water Bottle Video!
This was 19 days ago!
On Halloween he complimented children for not having a weight problem! https://twitter.com/NBCNightlyNews/status/924004266502737922?s=20
Ok, here's one - how many of you remembered that he commuted Rod Blagojevich's prison sentence? It happened this year! https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-expected-grant-clemency-former-ill-gov-rod-blagojevich-ex-n881051
Shithole countries! https://www.cnn.com/2018/01/11/politics/immigrants-shithole-countries-trump/index.html
I know that @Scaramucci has become a punch line but it's hard to do justice to how bats**t this interview with @RyanLizza was ... and how insane it seemed at the time https://www.newyorker.com/news/ryan-lizza/anthony-scaramucci-called-me-to-unload-about-white-house-leakers-reince-priebus-and-steve-bannon
How about that time he referred to @SenWarren as Pocahontas at a White House event HONORING NATIVE AMERICANS https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/trump-calls-warren-pocahontas-event-honoring-native-americans-n824266
Covfefe ... how did we forget covfefe!
HE MOCKED A CHILD FOR BELIEVING IN SANTA CLAUS! https://www.cnn.com/2018/12/25/politics/trump-santa-phone-call/index.html
On his first full day in office he went to the CIA, stood before a wall memorializing the 117 CIA agents who have died in the line of duty "and boasted of his appearances on magazine covers and exaggerated about the size of the crowd at his inauguration." https://www.politico.com/story/2017/01/trump-cia-langley-233971
I’ve got more! Like the time Trump didn’t know that Frederick Douglass is no longer alive https://www.cnn.com/2017/02/02/politics/donald-trump-frederick-douglass/index.html
He bragged about recognizing an elephant! https://twitter.com/kylegriffin1/status/1284863167290413057
I had forgotten that he offered well wishes to an accused sexual predator - twice! https://www.politico.com/news/2020/08/04/trump-well-wishes-ghislaine-maxwell-391274
He publicly mocked Christine Blasey Ford at a campaign rally https://www.cnn.com/2018/10/02/politics/trump-mocks-christine-blasey-ford-kavanaugh-supreme-court/index.html
His press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, said every woman who accused Trump of sexual assault was a liar https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2017/10/27/all-of-the-women-who-have-accused-trump-of-sexual-harassment-are-lying-the-white-house-says/
h/t yo @jacklerner but this one is unforgettable
A personal favorite: the time he had the Clemson Tigers to the White House & served them fast food
