We're all going to die.

Did he mention his electoral college votes?

No, but he did say, "Fortunately the United States has done very well since Election Day last Nov. 8."

Basically the same thing.

Don't tell Trump that, or he'll be tweeting about the "Chinese conspiracy of global warming to promote nuclear winter"

"Mueller Tasks an Adviser With Getting Ahead of Pre-Emptive Pardons"

As per the article:

"U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller has a distinctly modern problem. The president, judging by his tweets, could try to pardon people in his circle even before prosecutors charge anyone with a crime."

"Mueller's all-star team of prosecutors, with expertise in money laundering and foreign bribery, has an answer to that. He's Michael Dreeben, a bookish career government lawyer with more than 100 Supreme Court appearances under his belt."

Discordianism is fundamentally mischievous irreverence.

He's also got the New York AG helping with the investigation, as the President can only pardon federal crimes, not state level ones.  Mueller is covering all his bases.

Yes, he is. The G-Men are closing in on the Trump Crime Family.

"Trump unleashes himself from would-be handlers, lashing out mornings, nights and weekends"

QuoteWhen President Trump agreed last month with Democrats to strike a deal granting legal status to so-called Dreamers brought to this country illegally as children, his chief of staff, John F. Kelly, was all for it. Another Trump confidant disagreed: Fox host Sean Hannity made clear in a phone call and on his show that Trump must draw a harder line on broader immigration enforcement as his price.

Trump sided with Hannity, according to a person close to the White House. The result was a list of demands unveiled Sunday night — conditions seemingly guaranteed to thwart a bipartisan deal.

Kelly, the retired Marine general who is Trump's second chief of staff, has sought to tighten the flow of information and visitors to the president, to bring order to an unruly White House and to the way that Trump makes his decisions. But he is often thwarted by one man: Trump.

The president by many accounts has bristled at the restrictions and continues — usually alone on mornings, nights and weekends — to act on his own gut sense, using his own lines to contact allies outside the White House and, using Twitter, to reach those millions of supporters he calls "my people."

Here's the link: http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-na-pol-trump-kelly-20171010-story.html

So, would be revolutionaries, it occurs to me that one way of harnessing and directing The Chaos™ would be to not only fan the flames, but to be flamethrowers directed at the dolts in power.   

The above article describes the influence Hannity has on Trump.

Now, envision the power a small, well-organized, flamethrower group could have over a dolt like Congressman Louie Gohmert (R-TX).

Golfer-In-Chief: Trump Has Now Spent 27% Of His Presidency On A Golf Course

QuoteAs the NBC News tracker calculates, Trump's latest visit to his club in Virginia marks the 72nd day of his presidency he is spending on a golf course and the 92nd time day he is visiting one of his own properties. In total, Trump has been in office for 267 days.

According to some quick, back-of-the-napkin math, that means that Trump has spent 27 percent of his presidency golfing and more than a third at one of his ritzy properties.

Here's the link: http://www.politicususa.com/2017/10/14/golfer-in-chief-trump-spent-27-presidency-golf.html

Given that it's Trump, I'm trying to decide if this is a good thing, or a bad thing.

A good thing. The optimal outcome is for him to eventually start blowing off the job more-or-less entirely, so that we end up with neither Trump nor Pence in charge

Indeed. People keep forgetting that the republicans, and Trump and Pence in particular, are worse than nothing.

"Trump's Big Bet—That Republican Voters Like Him More Than Their Party or Congress"

QuoteIncreasingly, Republicans in Congress—Sen. Bob Corker, publicly, and plenty of others, privately—are voicing worry about what happens when a man they view as a toddler-president is left unsupervised by his various taxpayer-funded nannies.

For all the speculation about President Trump's motives for what appear to be ill-informed or un-strategic moves there is a method to Trump's perceived madness—a relatively simple way to accurately predict what he'll do on any given topic, with regard to any given decision.

The key is understanding that Trump's desire to round up Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan, douse them with gasoline, light them on fire, and broadcast the auto-da-fé live on cable news will always outweigh his other desires—including improving his own personal profile, achieving a stated policy outcome, or even making the people nearest and dearest to him happy.

Trump, commonly regarded by many as perhaps the apex of narcissism in a reality-TV-obsessed, take-six-selfies-a-day and compulsively-post-on–social-media culture, indeed loves positioning himself as the best, the biggest, the brightest, the boldest, and brashest.

But at the end of the day, Trump's shown again and again that he cares little about being generally unpopular, even among parts of his base. Trump cares deeply though, about how popular he is viewed relative to his competitors.

Here's the link: https://www.thedailybeast.com/trumps-big-betthat-republican-voters-like-him-more-than-their-party-or-congress

I found this opinion piece to be an interesting take on Trump's personality.
