Trump tweet about 'winners and losers' returns to haunt him

Donald Trump is notorious for his explosive rants on Twitter and particularly for old tweets written prior to his tenure in the White House returning to haunt him.

“There’s always a tweet” has become a common refrain on social media whenever one of the president’s past pronouncements is rediscovered and undermines or contradicts his actions in office.

His criticisms of his predecessor Barack Obama’s handling of the Ebola crisis in 2014, for instance, look especially hypocritical in hindsight given his own failures in tackling the coronavirus pandemic, which has so far hit 9.7 million Americans, including himself, and claimed over 235,000 lives.

But Mr Trump’s furious reaction to this week’s still-emerging election result has produced one of the finest examples yet.
