So it appears that our President-Elect isn't feeling the Ham lately. After the cast of Hamilton addressed Vice President-Elect Mike Pence following curtain call and voiced some of their concerns for the future, Trump Tower's own King George flew off the handle on his favorite social media platform:
The Theater must always be a safe and special place.The cast of Hamilton was very rude last night to a very good man, Mike Pence. Apologize!

So... Trump is seemingly taken aback that the multi-racial cast of a show based on the principle that immigrants and minorities share in America's heritage would want to speak up after the show and have a word with the rising second-in-command of the country in these trying times?
Despite the fact that Pence himself didn't really seem to mind the cast's address, Trump has decided to stick to his guns - his shaky, frequently misfiring guns.
Trump's transition manager Kellyanne Conway defended her boss's antics, per usual, asking, "Why do you care?" Uh, gee, I dunno, the guy's gonna be occupying the Oval Office and can't even handle his buddy receiving some pointers from theatre kids.
But, that's neither here nor there. Of course, Trump continues his little feud all without any substance and use. Basically his best shot is an opinion that Hamilton is overrated. Yeah, okay.
The cast and producers of Hamilton, which I hear is highly overrated, should immediately apologize to Mike Pence for their terrible behavior

What do we all wish we could say to Mr. Trump right now, after this hellish election and all the sh*t he's made us wade through, and now that he's instigating this? Simple:
Here's the thing, soon-to-be 45th President of the United States - your Twitter war days are just about over. Time to start expanding your thoughts, because presidential ideas can't be encapsulated in 140 characters. So, dude, come on, get real and get your head in the game.
You have absolutely no governmental experience (and no, business administration is not just like government administration, whether you like it or not), you're a couple months out from taking office, and you're 'sittin' there useless as two sh*ts' screwing around on Twitter. Man, read some damn books! Read some presidential biographies, political treatises, law review, anything for pity's sake! I could go on and on throwing out suggestions of things you could be doing instead of wasting time on Twitter:
The real Alexander Hamilton was the one who established much of our modern understanding of the Electoral College. He wrote in Federalist No. 68 in March, 1788:
"Talents for low intrigue, and the little arts of popularity, may alone suffice to elevate a man to the first honors in a single State; but it will require other talents, and a different kind of merit, to establish him in the esteem and confidence of the whole Union, or of so considerable a portion of it as would be necessary to make him a successful candidate for the distinguished office of President of the United States."
You have earned that 'distinguished office' because, according to Hamilton's plan, you appear to have 'other talents' and a 'different kind of merit.' So how about you get off Twitter, hit the books, and start acting like it.
