Trump Twitter Tag

The media has to fact check President Donald Trump over every little thing he says or tweets. Political counsel at the US Embassy in Ukraine David Holmes claimed he heard Trump speaking to US Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland "through the earpiece" of the latter's phone. Trump tweeted his doubt about Holmes's claim. CNN host Chris Cuomo tried to prove Trump wrong and failed miserably on live TV.

President Donald Trump released the transcript of his first phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky back in April. The men enjoyed a short conversation with Trump praising Zelensky's win. He published the transcript as the second impeachment hearing kicked off. Former Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch is testifying before the House Intelligence Committee.

We are in the middle of a media feeding frenzy over a supposed intelligence community whistleblower complaint on Trump's conversation last summer with the Ukrainian president. We know almost nothing about the complaint or the conversation, but that has not stopped a full-blown "we've got him now!" type joyfulness throughout the mainstream media and Never-Trump-land.

CNN hosted a much-touted "Climate Crisis Town Hall" for the Democratic presidential candidates on Tuesday night. However, a Category 5 Trump Tweet-storm slammed the event before the 7 hours of green justice fun began. President Donald Trump laid out 8-critical points, which refuted the fear-mongering that the 10 candidates offered to potential voters.

I've been more than a little distracted the last few days, so I haven't been able to follow the news cycle (aka Trump's Twitter feed) quite as closely as the rest of the internet. My takeaway from glimpses of the fighting is that Trump has Democrats defending and supporting:

President Trump is yet again being called a "racist" by the leftstream media, Democrats, and some Republicans.  It all started when Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) gained the president's attention with comments about our Southern border and border agents. Trump responded, quite reasonably it seemed to me, that Cummings should look at his own district, of which Baltimore is part.
