Trump Goes on Wildly Flailing Crazed Early Morning Tweet Storm

Desperately Trying to Deflect from Donald Trump Jr.’s Stunning Admissions

President Donald Trump went wild on Twitter Monday morning, trying desperately to deflect the spotlight the media now has focused on his oldest son. After The New York Times late Sunday afternoon reported Donald Trump Jr. had met with an attorney linked to the Kremlin in an attempt to obtain damaging information on Hillary Clinton during the presidential campaign, and brought Jared Kushner and Paul Manafort with him, President Trump lashed out.

Trump posted ten tweets in a matter of a few hours, including several Fox News clips. Clearly the President of the United States is not working for the American people, but watching cable TV and flailing about in an effort to protect his own endangered interests.

Trump first retweeted ultra-conservative actor James Woods. Many if not most would disagree with this claim.

Then he retweeted this inane “Fox & Friends” claim, also one many people would disagree with:

Trump then accused James Comey of felonious leaking, which NCRM reported earlier Monday morning. That tweet was based on a questionable report at The Hill.

The president also posted a tweet threatening Congress on the health care bill.

And then, this. An insane tweet claiming his daughter sitting in for him at the G-20 was “very standard.” Worse, he sets German Chancellor Angela Merkel up as the de facto leader of the free world.

So much for leadership.

Several notables disagreed with Trump’s claim Ivanka sitting in for him at the G-20 was “very standard.”

This editor at The LA Times says only the President, or a senior foreign policy aide, should have sat in that chair.

Then this, which is ludicrous:

Trump also retweeted a Sean Hannity scandal-mongering tweet, and two more “Fox & Friends” video clips, including one attacking NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio.

To be clear: Trump did not post a single tweet about the big news, The New York Times report. Trump’s son confirmed the report, and made it even more damning than originally reported: that senior members of the Trump campaign were open to colluding with people tied to the Russian government to get negative information on Hillary Clinton. 

Former Mitt Romney presidential campaign senior strategist Stuart Stevens explained the gravity of this new development:

This is a president so far in over his head he’s drowning and doesn’t even see it. He’s shooting any anything that moves, and missing at every turn.
