Source: The Hill

BY BRANDON CARTER - 09/17/17 01:37 PM EDT

Rep. Brad Sherman (D-Calif.) on Sunday slammed President Trump for sharing a GIF that showed him knocking down Hillary Clinton with a golf ball, calling it “misogynistic.”

“Retweeting this kind of misogynistic video might be below the standards of even this President,” Sherman said.

Early Sunday morning, Trump shared a modified GIF that showed him hitting a golf ball, which carried over into another clip that made it look like the ball makes Clinton fall. Trump retweeted the GIF originally shared from the Twitter account @Fuctupmind.

Previous tweets from the @Fuctupmind account include anti-Semitic messages, as well as tweets referring to Muslims and transgender people. At least one anti-Semitic tweet posted by that account was deleted shortly after Trump’s retweet, according to BuzzFeed News.
