The celebratory tweet kicked off a long day of tweeting and retweeting that ramped up at around 2pm when Trump observed, in response to a recent 'New York Times' article, that those who know him regard him as "the hardest working President in history".
Over the next seven hours or so, Trump took aim at everything and anyone he could, unleashing a barrage of more than 30 tweets and retweets that targeted media outlets, high-profile commentators, and Democrats.
He also returned once more to the Russia probe and impeachment, promoting a tweet that accused his political adversaries of "three failed coup attempts".
The tweet went on to suggest, with no evidence, that the president's opponents could "attempt to steal the election" by making the novel coronavirus's impact on human lives seem worse than it really is.
At one point, the president said reporters who covered him should return their "Noble Prizes", appearing to confuse the Nobel Prizes with the Pulitzer Prizes for journalism.

(9,895 posts)THAT is the problem, IF Trump were actually working none of us would be hearing about it. But him telling anyone about "hard work" is vomit-inducing horseshit.
