The last I checked was around 8pm last night. What could have happened after that?
Dreaded looking. It looks as though somebody else probably had control of his Twitter account and retweeted 18 posts from various agencies about the government's Hurricane Florence activity. Retweets don't carry a time stamp for some reason, so maybe they did it while he was sleeping, or maybe he asked somebody to do it so he didn't have to be bothered with actually spending any time to look like he gives a shit. He already posted his "we are with you!" and "5 people dead!" tweets. The next time he'll actually post a tweet about the disaster himself is if he goes down and throws supplies to people for a photo op.
Then he got up this morning, took control of his account, and so far has tweeted bluster and kudos to himself.
Once again, it's a lie that new steel plants all around the country are being built. He used to actually give a number, usually 6. Even that was a lie.
I don't know about the "small & medium size enterprises" registering "very good profit", nor what "there" stocks are doing, but I'd be willing to wager low income workers are not getting big raises. He'd have been crowing about it if there were any proof of that. Peter Morici is an economist. I'm not even going to look up any of this stuff, and that's what happens when someone lies over and over and over again. You just assume he's lying every time. If you're a low income worker and you got a big raise, good for you. Are you making $15/hour yet?
And the tweet about tariffs....pure and utter bullshit. Every article I see about tariffs, from farmers to auto manufacturers to corporate CEOs to politicians it's one lamenting and fretting about what the tariffs are doing and are going to do to cause harm.
I see he's coined a new word: "Tarriffed." I mean, "Tarriffed!"
Obviously, the joy of imposing tarrifs is one of being able to punish.
He still hasn't said anything about Manafort's plea bargain.
