Somebody break his finger.
President Donald Trump suggested in a tweet this morning that frequent critic Joe Scarborough, the host of the MSNBC’s Morning Joe, killed his intern in 2001.
An autopsy found that the intern had a heart condition. She fell and hit her head on the desk.
Newsweek reports …
It’s not the first time Trump has drawn attention to a conspiracy theory via social media or participated in creating one. His latest, according to The New York Times, is his suggestion to advisers that the Access Hollywood tapes in which he made vulgar sexual comments about women were fake. He famously asked for President Barack Obama to present his birth certificate and prove he was American-born, but backtracked on that claim in 2016. Lately, according to the Times, Trump has been telling advisers he thinks Obama’s birth certificate is a fake.
Well, at least he’s narrowing his hate tweets. Instead of pissing off a whole foreign country, religion, and people of good faith, he’s got it down to teevee people.
Thanks to Kyle for the heads up.
