Social media users hit Trump over Memorial Day tweet

Social media users criticized President Trump for a Memorial Day tweet claiming that fallen service members “would be very happy and proud at how well our country is doing today.”

Trump sent the tweet on Monday to mark the holiday honoring fallen heroes, and used the opportunity to tout statistics about the economy under his administration.




Twitter users, including several journalists, quickly criticized the president, saying Trump was making the holiday about himself.

Here is what some Twitter users had to say:

Why single out unemployment rates for Blacks and Hispanics? To keep the stereotype front and center in his Neanderthal base's heads that black and brown people are the lazy and jobless, and HE is the one who's finally doing something for them.

Can't wait for the pegs to start coming out from under this shitheel.
