Synopsis of President Trump’s Tweets

  • June 1: “Sleep Joe Biden’s people are so Radical Left that they are working to get the Anarchists out of jail, and probably more. Joe doesn’t know anything about it, he is clueless, but they will be the real power, not Joe. They will be calling the shots! Big tax increases for all, Plus!”
  • June 1: “‘These were the people that trashed Seattle years ago. Who’s paying for these people. I was appalled that 13 of Joe Biden’s staff were donating money to bail people out in Minneapolis. They should have stayed in jail until this is over (and beyond).’ @newtgingrich @foxandfriends”
  • June 1: “‘I don’t see any indication that there were any white supremest groups mixing in. This is an ANTIFA Organization. It seems that the first time we saw it in a major way was Occupy Wall Street. It’s the same mindset.’  @kilmeade @foxandfriends   TRUE!”
  • May 31: “FAKE NEWS!”
  • May 31: “LAW & ORDER!”
  • May 31: “Our National Guard stopped them cold last night. Should have been called up sooner!”  Retweet:  Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump · May 30 · 80% of the RIOTERS in Minneapolis last night were from OUT OF STATE. They are harming businesses (especially African American small businesses), homes, and the community of good, hardworking Minneapolis residents who want peace, equality, and to provide for their families.
  • May 31: “SO TERRIBLE! Where are the arrests and LONG TERM jail sentences? https://twitter.com/markkendall_gw/status/1267192752464211974” Retweet:  This Tweet is unavailable.
  • May 31: “STRENGTH!”  https://twitter.com/seancordicon/status/1266799748989816832   Retweet:  This Tweet is unavailable.
  • May 31: “Get tough Democrat Mayors and Governors. These people are ANARCHISTS. Call in our National Guard NOW. The World is watching and laughing at you and Sleepy Joe. Is this what America wants? NO!!!”
  • May 31: “Law & Order in Philadelphia, NOW! They are looting stores. Call in our great National Guard like they FINALLY did (thank you President Trump) last night in Minneapolis. Is this what voters want with Sleepy Joe? All Dems!”
  • May 31: “The Lamestream Media is doing everything within their power to foment hatred and anarchy. As long as everybody understands what they are doing, that they are FAKE NEWS and truly bad people with a sick agenda, we can easily work through them to GREATNESS!”
  • May 31: “The United States of America will be designating ANTIFA as a Terrorist Organization.”
  • May 31: “Other Democrat run Cities and States should look at the total shutdown of Radical Left Anarchists in Minneapolis last night. The National Guard did a great job, and should be used in other States before it is too late!”
  • May 31: “Congratulations to our National Guard for the great job they did immediately upon arriving in Minneapolis, Minnesota, last night. The ANTIFA led anarchists, among others, were shut down quickly. Should have been done by Mayor on first night and there would have been no trouble!”
  • May 30: “Let New York’s Finest be New York’s Finest. There is nobody better, but they must be allowed to do their job!”
  • May 30: “The National Guard has been released in Minneapolis to do the job that the Democrat Mayor couldn’t do. Should have been used 2 days ago & there would not have been damage & Police Headquarters would not have been taken over & ruined. Great job by the National Guard. No games!”
  • May 30: [Video | Attorney General William Barr’s Statement]
  • May 30: “MN Gov. Walz: We Estimate 80% of the Rioters Are from out of State https://breitbart.com/clips/2020/05/30/mn-gov-walz-we-estimate-80-of-the-rioters-are-from-out-of-state/  via @BreitbartNews”

  • May 30: “80% of the RIOTERS in Minneapolis last night were from OUT OF STATE. They are harming businesses (especially African American small businesses), homes, and the community of good, hardworking Minneapolis residents who want peace, equality, and to provide for their families.”
  • May 30: “Much more “disinformation” coming out of CNN, MSDNC, @nytimes and @washingtonpost, by far, than coming out of any foreign country, even combined. Fake News is the Enemy of the People!”
  • May 30: “Crossing State lines to incite violence is a FEDERAL CRIME! Liberal Governors and Mayors must get MUCH tougher or the Federal Government will step in and do what has to be done, and that includes using the unlimited power of our Military and many arrests. Thank you!”
  • May 30: “Here we go again. Fake News @CNN is blaming RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA. They are sick losers with VERY bad ratings! P.S. Can’t blame China because they need the cash?”
  • May 30: “It’s ANTIFA and the Radical Left. Don’t lay the blame on others!”
  • May 30: “Mayor Jacob Frey of Minneapolis will never be mistaken for the late, great General Douglas McArthur or great fighter General George Patton. How come all of these places that defend so poorly are run by Liberal Democrats? Get tough and fight (and arrest the bad ones). STRENGTH!”
  • May 30: “These are ‘Organized Groups’ that have nothing to do with George Floyd. Sad!”
  • May 30:  “The professionally managed so-called ‘protesters’ at the White House had little to do with the memory of George Floyd. They were just there to cause trouble. The @SecretService handled them easily. Tonight, I understand, is MAGA NIGHT AT THE WHITE HOUSE???”
