Donald Trump Unleashes Unhinged Early Morning Twitter Rant – And This Time It’s Dangerous
Trump is playing with nuclear war. He has no idea what he’s doing, and it’s becoming clear people may die as a result.
President Donald Trump Friday morning unleashed an unhinged Twitter rant, attacking Republicans even thinking about blocking ObamaCare repeal, the “Russia hoax” and “Crooked Hillary,” and North Korea’s Kim Jong-un.Â
Attacking Kim Jong-un in a war of words is dangerous – not only for Trump, but for all Americans, and ultimately, the entire world.
Rather than be strategic, thoughtful, or even a mature adult, Donald Trump has engaged with the North Korean totalitarian dictator as if he were a business or political opponent. Actually, worse, Donald Trump has engaged with Kim as a child on the playground.Â
Trump went ballistic last month when he threatened North Korea with “fire and fury like the world has never seen,” in response to a news report Pyongyang had successfully miniaturized a nuclear warhead to fit in an ICBM.Â
And on Tuesday Trump stood before world leaders an embarrassed Kim, calling him “Rocket Man,” which was just infantile.
Thursday, Kim struck back, verbally, in a statement calling Trump a “dotard,” “deranged,” a “rogue and a gangster,” suggesting he is behaving like a “frightened dog,” and promising to punish him with fire.
Trump, who’s never not responded to an insult, Friday morning hit back.
Kim Jong Un of North Korea, who is obviously a madman who doesn’t mind starving or killing his people, will be tested like never before!

When you’re the leader of the free world, sometimes not responding, especially to a juvenile attack, makes you look stronger. But Donald Trump is an immature idiot, and this puerile but escalating war of words will have life-and-death consequences if it continues.Â
Trump also on Friday morning attacked Senator Rand Paul (R-KY), who is refusing to vote for the latest and worst version of TrumpCare, the Graham-Cassidy bill to “repeal and replace” ObamaCare. Senator Paul is a no, and some of the other Republicans who have previously stopped ObamaCare repeal are wavering.
This was Trump’s message to the early Friday morning:
Rand Paul, or whoever votes against Hcare Bill, will forever (future political campaigns) be known as “the Republican who saved ObamaCare.”

Trump likely doesn’t know or doesn’t care, but “the Republican who saved ObamaCare” isn’t a bad title. The majority of Americans support ObamaCare, and six out of ten last month said it was good the Senate failed in its efforts to repeal and replace it.
The President, clearly running scared, also lashed out at the “Russia hoax,” which he and everyone else know is anything but. Even his intelligence agencies, his nominee to become ambassador to Russia, and experts the world over know Russia interfered in our election. He also renewed his attack on “Crooked Hillary,” and the “dishonest Media.”
The Russia hoax continues, now it’s ads on Facebook. What about the totally biased and dishonest Media coverage in favor of Crooked Hillary?

And minutes later, this:
The greatest influence over our election was the Fake News Media “screaming” for Crooked Hillary Clinton. Next, she was a bad candidate!

Trump is playing with nuclear war. He has no idea what he’s doing, and it’s becoming clear people may die as a result.
