A witch hunt is useful if there’s an actual witch at the end of it. Maybe it should be called a “Stooge Hunt”, or a “Dupe Hunt”?

Trump has poor, injured snowflake Tomi Lahren’s back.  
“Everybody is with Tomi Lahren, a truly outstanding and respected young woman! @foxandfriends”

> <https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/999249186762772481>

This is referring to an incident at a restaurant where poor Tomi was heckled and somebody threw water at her.

If someone told me Trump had my back the first thing I’d do is check for a knife.

I don’t like Lahren or what she stands for nor the despicable things she says, but I also don’t think she’s a snowflake for talking about the shitty behavior of someone who throws water at her in a restaurant. That’s just wrong and immature no matter who you do that to.

Given the fact situation (il Doofus using his Twitter account in a way that made it a de facto official Presidential forum), I don’t see any real way of coming to any other conclusion. If he doesn’t want his delicate sensibilities offended with critical commentary, he needs to use an account that is genuinely private and let his minions handle the public Twitter channel.

There IS an official POTUS Twitter account. He could start using that for policy comments and use his personal account for general personal commentary.

I remember that even in other threads there were some that like Trump tried to make his insult about Salvadorans and other Hispanics coming to the border as “animals” to be just about specific gang members. Kinda plausible that Trump was referring only about the MS-13 gang. But leave it to Trump to “clarify” things by telling all that the “animal” insult for Trump is not just exclusively about the gangs.

> As for MS-13, Democrats are not the ones obsessed with the gang, which is a teeny tiny fraction of all immigrants. Democrats are much more worried about the parents and children being ripped apart, the migrant children being abused by Border Patrol, the Dreamers fearing deportation, the immigrants who’ve been living and working and raising families and building their communities in this country for decades. But Trump just wants to talk about a comparative few gang members— **and here he’s reminding us that when he thinks MS-13, he thinks all immigrants, and when he thinks immigrants, he thinks MS-13.**

The way to remember how to spell that class of words (diarrhea, gonorrhea, hemorrhage, etc) is to remember that they generally Really, Really Hurt.

“Put pressure on the Democrats to end the horrible law that separates children from there parents once they cross the Border into the U.S. Catch and Release, Lottery and Chain must also go with it and we MUST continue building the WALL! DEMOCRATS ARE PROTECTING MS-13 THUGS.”

> <https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1000375761604370434>

So Trump institutes a plicy and then blames the Democrats for it.  
Also note “there” instead of “their”.
