Donald Trump’s Latest Dopey Tweetstorm: Friday Morning Edition
The Twitter habits of GOP frontrunner Donald Trump should not come as a surprise to anyone by this point in the election cycle. Aside from a regular practice of retweeting grossly inaccurate or generally hateful imagery, the real estate mogul regularly uses the social media platform to disrespect many in the crowded Republican field and media.
It’s only 8:28 a.m. Friday morning, and although Trump started the day by expressing his support for the New England Police Union, he quickly turned to the offensive and randomly unleashed a number of updates aimed at MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Meet The Press host Chuck Todd, and the current biggest threat to his Presidential ambitions: Texas Senator Ted Cruz. The following all occurred within 19 minutes:
.@Morning_Joe is so off on Iowa, which I am leading big in new @CNN poll. I will win Iowa. Also, I beat Hillary easily!

Looks like @tedcruz is getting ready to attack. I am leading by so much he must. I hope so, he will fall like all others. Will be easy!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 11, 2015
.@tedcruz should not make statements behind closed doors to his bosses, he should bring them out into the open – more fun that way!

.@Morning_Joe just went off the rails. I will beat Hillary easily – she does not want to run against me. I am tuning them out, waste of time

.@chucktodd is a nice guy , but just hopeless. He knows so little about politics and, in particular, winning! I fixed his rating problem.

Many questions remain unanswered at this time, namely, why the Trump campaign hasn’t taken away the man’s phone at this point. We will update this post if when Trump continues to randomly criticize people throughout the morning.
