How would a businessman like him profit from those?

from here and here

Y'know, if I took nuclear secrets home with me, I'd definitely expect the authorities to show up looking for them. That Trump managed to act surprised is a testament to his skill as a con-artist.

Uncle Scam Wants You shirt

While politicians aren't generally regarded as particularly truthful, when a scam artist gets into a position of authority it's a completely different (and much more dangerous) ball game.

Don't bring a toothbrush to a missile fight

from here and here (image source)

I suppose it's possible that if you throw one of these at someone it might be classified a missile, but I like to think the more probable explanation for Trump's repeated mistake is that he takes his toothbrush into the bath with him for naval play-time.

So much for having the best people

from here

 I kinda think someone needs to keep a closer eye on the tweeter-in-chief's cyber-security issues. If someone is trying to report something, that shouldn't fall on deaf ears for an entire presidential term.

Look who's a nobody now

from here and here

For someone who was himself hacked, Trump sure has a strange sense of what's possible. Or maybe he thinks it takes a genius to outsmart his stable genius password scheme.

Or maybe the dementia is catching up with him.

It's gonna be YUGE

from here and here

It's hard not to come away from the "Clean Networks" idea and not think they're talking about some kind of firewall (though probably more like the Great Firewall of China than anything you can get at Best Buy), and with the demand for a transaction fee to allow China to comply with the other demands it's easy to make the association with Trump's past election promise of a border wall that Mexico would pay for.

Choosing a memorable password? What could possibly go wrong?

from here and here

It's absurd to use one of your most well know phrases as your passphrase, and yet the old advice about passwords/passphrases clearly stipulates that it should be something that's easy for you to remember. What's more memorable than your own personal catch phrase?

Thanks to Graham Cluley for writing and tweeting about it.

Maybe they didn't notice

from here

Y'know, a good meme isn't just a funny picture or video on the Internet. Sometimes it's a different way of looking at things, of thinking about them, of framing them. I think the FBI's continued attempts to get backdoors in iPhones deserves something like that.

Just place it over there with the rest of the dirt

from here

I'm pretty sure for a threat like this to work, the dirt has to matter. They seemingly had info about many celebrities, and even released some already, but for their threat they chose the one person for whom dirt doesn't seem to matter at all. That's a fail.

When your security needs complete covfefe

found on Better Meme

As a general rule, firewalls do not stop viruses. They may block certain types of network worms, which are considered by some to be part of the viral set, but there's still plenty of viral malware outside the scope of what firewalls do.

We've got the best protection

found on Me.me

It's not a wall, or a fence, and I sure hope it doesn't cost $5.7B. I'd like to think it would provide actual protection, but coming from that guy you never know.
