On day 15 of nationwide protests against police brutality after the murder of Minneapolis resident and father of two George Floyd, and in the middle of a global pandemic that has left more than 113,000 Americans dead, and during the worst unemployment rate since the Great Depression, the current president of the United States has a few things to say. Unfortunately, none of them address any of these issues or do much more than divide the people living them.

Minnesota needs DJT & @LacyJohnsonMN NOW. When I insisted on the National Guard, things got better FAST. Enough with Omar, you’ll have nothing left! https://t.co/Zt2otB94Px

This does not inspire much confidence in those who are supposed to protect us and to prevent anarchy. pic.twitter.com/OKucsNVBci

Should have let police do their job and brought in National Guard on Day One, not Day Four! https://t.co/AZ661hygIb

With no rallies in which to fearmonger, insult, and lie, Trump has taken to Twitter more often than usual lately. The entire world is getting a taste of what Trumpsters are treated to at every rally and, frankly, it’s fairly disgusting.
Neither Sebastian Gorka nor Donald Trump have ever served in the Marines, and Trump has never served in any branch of the military, so the idea of the two of them deciding who is and isn’t a good Marine is nothing short of laughable. Trump can always count on his supporters to make him look even more foolish than he already does. An even better example comes from the video of Kayleigh McEnany, the White House press secretary, spreading even more fear mongering with her picture of a world without the police. No one is calling for a world without any system of law enforcement, but this is the Trump brand: say things that make no sense but drum up fear in his supporters and count on that fear to drive him back to the White House.
Twitter weighed in on Trump’s Tuesday litany. Read some of their comments below:
