It ’s day 209 of the Trump presidency . And the forecast calls for nebulose skies , hot line from the north , and a opportunity of tweets about Nazis .
Early this dawn , CNN published an astonishing varsity letter by former CIA Director John Brennan that said President Trump was not only a “ national disgrace ” but that he was “ putting our national security and our collective futures at grave risk . ” And President Trump seemed determined to prove Brennan right this morning by sending out a barrage of unhinged tweet .
President Trump set forth the daybreak nice and early ( 6:19am ET ) by assail Senator Lindsey Graham . Senator Graham came out yesterday reprobate the chairwoman ’s response to the terrorist attackin Charlottesville , saying “ Your words are dividing Americans , not mend them . ”
Publicity seek Lindsey Graham incorrectly stated that I said there is moral equivalency between the KKK , neo - Nazis & white supremacists ……

Trump continued his thought about Graham by bringing up the 2016 presidential election , something that he ’s obviously still obsessed with since he lose the popular voter turnout by about 3 million vote .
… and hoi polloi like Ms. Heyer . Such a disgusting prevarication . He just ca n’t draw a blank his election trouncing . The people of South Carolina will remember !
After bashing Graham , President Trump become his aid to what he calls the “ fake news program , ” a terminal figure that has lost all significance and seems to represent anything that is critical of the chairman .
The world is ascertain ( even more so ) how corruptible the Fake News is . They totally misrepresent what I say about hatred , bigotry etc . Shame !
Corey Lewandowski , the president ’s former cause manager , say that it was biased for the tidings to cover the chair ’s input for such long periods of time .

By 6:56am , President Trump then proceeded to assail more members of his own party like Arizona Senator Jeff Flake , who he called “ Flake Jeff Flake , ” and accused of being “ toxic . ”
nifty to see that Dr. Kelli Ward is hightail it against Flake Jeff Flake , who is WEAK on boundary line , crime and a non - component in Senate . He ’s toxic !
It was clean-cut what prompted his remarks , since Fox News had just publicize a longsighted segment on Kelli Ward and Senator Flake .

The chairman watches hours of TV per day , despite the fact that he insist he does n’t have time to watch . The Fox News coverage was also about Trump ’s plan to arrest a campaign rally in Phoenix , Arizona on Tuesday . The mayor of Phoenix took to Twitter yesterday to ask that the rally not take position as the country mourn the terrorist attack by neo - Nazis in Charlottesville .

“ I am disappoint that President Trump has choose to bind a movement rally as our nation is still healing from the tragic events in Charlottesville , ” Mayor Greg Stanton say in the statement .
Mayor Stanton speculated that the president might be traveling to Arizona to annunciate a pardon for the notorious Sheriff Joe Arpaio , something that President Trump has hinted at before . Sheriff Arpaio was convict of felonious scorn when he continued racial profiling and remand Latinos disproportionately , ignoring court rules of order .
President Trump has usher himself to pick out the worst possible choice practically every time he ’s acquaint with a choice . So as the country continues to come into chaos over his inept leaders , the easy money is on thing only getting worse from here on out . But the daytime is still young . Maybe he ’ll finally denounce neo - Nazis unambiguously without pandering to the nation ’s speculative racists . But I ’m not going to hold my breathing space .
The only affair we know for sure is that President Trump will continue to tweet , using the on-line sensitive that contributed to his rise to power . And each tweet serve as a reminder that these are truly dark times for America , a country whose own president is undoubtedly a national disgrace .
Update , 9:22am : President Trump just institutionalize out a raw stir of tweets , replicate down on his support for Confederate statues , and even call these monument to treasonist “ beautiful . ”
Sad to see the history and culture of our heavy nation being ripped asunder with the removal of our beautiful statues and monument . You … ..
… ca n’t change history , but you could learn from it . Robert E Lee , Stonewall Jackson – who ’s next , Washington , Jefferson ? So foolish ! Also …
… the beauty that is being taken out of our cities , townsfolk and park will be greatly miss and never able to be comparably replaced !
Correction : This mail service originally stated that the prexy was still at Trump Tower . He left New York last nighttime . I regret the mistake .
