After Donald Trump was upset in dramatic faction last night in the Iowa caucus he was uncharacteristically silent on Twitter. There was nothing, no ego-boosting retweets, not even a crack about Ted Cruz being the first Canadian to win Iowa.
That’s all come to an end though, and Donald Trump is getting his swagger back. But he’s also working through his grief. These are the 5 stages of grief of Donald Trump losing Iowa.
1. Denial
My experience in Iowa was a great one. I started out with all of the experts saying I couldn't do well there and ended up in 2nd place. Nice

2. Bargaining
Because I was told I could not do well in Iowa, I spent very little there – a fraction of Cruz & Rubio. Came in a strong second. Great honor

3. Anger
The media has not covered my long-shot great finish in Iowa fairly. Brought in record voters and got second highest vote total in history!

4. Denial & Anger
I will be talking about my wonderful experience in Iowa and the simultaneous unfair treatment by the media-later in New Hampshire. Big crowd

5. Anger & Denial
I don't believe I have been given any credit by the voters for self-funding my campaign, the only one. I will keep doing, but not worth it!

Well, he may be stuck in anger and denial but he was on a roll for a bit there. Good luck next time Trump.
