Twitter Blasts Trump For Childish New Year’s Greeting Mocking Democrats
“This Kind of Greeting is the Mark of a Soulless Man, Consumed by Narcissism”
Happy New Year to all, including to my many enemies and those who have fought me and lost so badly they just don’t know what to do. Love!

Three weeks removed from becoming the most powerful man in the free world, President-elect Donald Trump took to Twitter early Saturday to childishly mock Democrats and his “many enemies” in a New Year’s greeting.Â
That’s right, folks, when the incoming commander in chief isn’t tweeting praise for our most powerful foreign adversary, he’s attacking our nation’s own citizens.Â
“Happy New Year to all, including to my many enemies and those who have fought me and lost so badly they just don’t know what to do. Love!” Trump wrote.Â
Here’s how Twitter responded.Â
This kind of greeting is the mark of a soulless man, consumed by narcissism. https://t.co/KKclZnvfGt

His New Year’s Eve tweet isn’t even the worst one of the genre. https://t.co/gDEwsFSqUJ

@realDonaldTrump You’re an absolute sociopath. I cannot believe U.S. citizens voted you into office. Act like a president!

@realDonaldTrump I guess by “enemies” you mean fellow Americans who also love this country and are hoping and praying for the best.

Also, @realDonaldTrump: in the popular vote, who was it again who “lost so badly”? #MinorityPresident pic.twitter.com/wD3zGYH0x6

Hillary Clinton won almost 3 million more votes than you did. Happy New Year. https://t.co/8l6y8NS9KH

@realDonaldTrump C’mon. I’m a school teacher. I fight every day to teach kids not to talk like this. Set an good example, damn it. Be a man.

@realDonaldTrump still searching for that dignity and grace, it seems. Maybe a new year’s resolution for you Donny boy.
