Synopsis of President Trump’s Tweets

  • July 26: “Rigged Election, and EVERYONE knows it!  Retweet:  Ari Fleischer @AriFleischer · 11h · “It’s been dysfunctional to the extreme,” said Brian Van Nieuwenhoven, treasurer of the Samuel J. Tilden Democratic Club in the district.  At the center of this mess is a massive influx of mail-in ballots…and a system wholly unprepared to process them.” https://washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/a-month-later-this-new-york-city-primary-is-still-a-train-wreck-and-a-warning-to-us-all/2020/07/25/1c19f9c4-cb68-11ea-b0e3-d55bda07d66a_story.html
  • July 26: “Where is JUSTICE?”  Retweet:  Brit Hume @brithume · 11h · From the article: “What is astonishing is that the media has refused to see what should be one of the biggest stories in decades. The Obama administration targeted the campaign of the opposing party based on false evidence.” https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/509002-more-willful-blindness-by-the-media-on-spying-by-obama-administration
  • July 26: “Wow!” https://twitter.com/dineshdsouza/status/1275556741179224067  This Tweet is unavailable.
  • July 26: “He is, and people are not happy about it. The Washington Post is a political front for Amazon. Nobody treated Ronald Reagan worse!”  Retweet:  Mark R. Levin @marklevinshow · 7h · (1) I campaigned for Ronald Reagan in 1976 and 1980.  I worked in President Reagan’s administration for 8 years.  I did not realize that Fred Ryan, who is now the publisher and CEO of the Washington Post is also the chairman of the Reagan Library & Foundation board.
  • July 26: “We do more testing than any country in the World, by far, over 55 million tests. Fake News @CNN says we should do more testing. But even if we did 100 times more, they would then say it is still not enough. They are totally discredited, just want Sleepy Joe to win in November!”  Retweet:  TV News HQ @TVNewsHQ · 10h · Watch: Admiral Brett Giroir, MD of the COVID task force, calls out CNN’s @JakeTapper for misreporting coronavirus testing. Tapper asks why different types of labs are not being used and the Admiral explains they are!
  • July 26: “The ‘protesters’ are actually anarchists who hate our Country. The line of innocent “mothers” were a scam that Lamestream refuses to acknowledge, just like they don’t report the violence of these demonstrations!”  Retweet:  Jennifer Franco @jennfranconews · Jul 24 · #NEW: U.S. District Court Judge Michael Mosman denies an order sought by Oregon AG Ellen Rosenblum to stop federal agents from arresting people during protests in Portland. Judge Mosman ruled the state lacks standing to sue on behalf of protesters.  https://scribd.com/document/470304881/ELLEN-ROSENBLUM-Plaintiff-v-JOHN-DOES-1-10-UNITED-STATES-DEPARTMENT-OF-HOMELAND-SECURITY
  • July 26: “The 2020 Election will be totally rigged if Mail-In Voting is allowed to take place, & everyone knows it. So much time is taken talking about foreign influence, but the same people won’t even discuss Mail-In election corruption. Look at Patterson, N.J. 20% of vote was corrupted!”
  • July 26: “Because of my strong focus on the China Virus, including scheduled meetings on Vaccines, our economy and much else, I won’t be able to be in New York to throw out the opening pitch for the @Yankees on August 15th. We will make it later in the season!”
  • July 26: “The Lamestream Media, including @FoxNews, which has really checked out, is refusing to show what is REALLY going on in Portland, Seattle, and other places. They want the American public to believe that these are just some wonderful protesters, not radical left ANARCHISTS!”
  • July 26: “There is NO WAY a place like Pennsylvania can vote for the Radical Left and their puppet, Joe Biden, when they are against fracking, steel production, and just about everything else that Pennsylvania stands for. Likewise, Texas, and many other states!!!”
  • July 26: “So the Washington Post is running the Reagan Foundation, and RINO Paul Ryan is on the Board of Fox, which has been terrible. We will win anyway, even with the phony @FoxNews suppression polls (which have been seriously wrong for 5 years)!”  Retweet:  Larry Sabato @LarrySabato · Jul 25 · Hmmm…”Frederick J. Ryan Jr., who chairs the Reagan Foundation board, is also publisher and CEO of The Washington Post. He declined to offer a comment for this column.”
  • July 26: “The Trump Campaign has more ENTHUSIASM, according to many, than any campaign in the history of our great Country – Even more than 2016. Biden has NONE! The Silent Majority will speak on NOVEMBER THIRD!!! Fake Suppression Polls & Fake News will not save the Radical Left.”
  • July 26: “Crazy Nancy Pelosi said I made a mistake when I banned people from infected China from entering the U.S. in January. Tens of thousands of lives were saved, as she danced in the Streets of Chinatown (SF) in late February. Biden agreed with her, but soon admitted that I was right!”
  • July 26: “Brett LOVES Wisconsin, Mississippi and Minnesota. A good golfer – hits it LONG!”  Retweet:  Alex Salvi @alexsalvinews · Jul 25 · Pres. Trump golfed with former NFL quarterback Brett Favre today.  Camera with flash: @WhiteHouse

  • July 26: “This week you had Joe Biden call Arizona a CITY. Nothing matters with him, however, because the Opposition Party (Lamestream Media) covers everything up – especially the corruption. The Obama/Biden Administration is the most corrupt in history. They even spied on my campaign!”
  • July 25: “My Administration is closely monitoring Hurricane Douglas off Hawaii & Hurricane Hanna, which has now made landfall in Texas. We continue to coordinate closely with both states — listen to your emergency management officials @Hawaii_EMA  & @TDEM to protect your family & property!”
  • July 25: “One of the greats in the history of television, Regis Philbin has passed on to even greater airwaves, at 88. He was a fantastic person, and my friend. He kept telling me to run for President. Holds the record for “most live television”, and he did it well. Regis, we love you….”
  • July 25: “….And to Joy, his wonderful wife who he loved so much, my warmest condolences!!!”
  • July 25: “The Democrats in the House are trying to undo my big win Travel Ban Bill, which successfully keeps very bad and dangerous people out of our great Country. Passed along party lines. Hopefully, will be DEAD in the Senate! The Dems have gone Stone Cold Left – Venezuela on steroids!”
