Trump clearly has decided to retake control of his Twitter. New Tweet about "Dopey" Robert Gates

Never met but never liked dopey Robert Gates. Look at the mess the U.S. is in. Always speaks badly of his many bosses, including Obama.

Did they really think they could change him (Kellyanne Conway)?

And I still believe Trump doesn't actually want to be President.

Frankly it was the first smart move that Bush made (replacing Rumsfeld with Gates) in the cluster f.ck that he and his neoconservative cabal got us into.

I think it was also a very wise decision by President Obama to ask Gates to stay on.

Gates spent 50 years serving his country. Trump has spent 0 years.

@MaxBoot I think he's coming apart. I think he's losing it. I half expect him to drop out soon. He's going nuts out there.
