The demented old dotard is even more unhinged than his boot-licking, delusional supporters. ROTFLMAO.
President Donald Trump attacks whistleblower in now-removed tweetstorm full of rants and conspiracies - CNNPolitics
President Donald Trump retweeted an attack that included an unsubstantiated name of the intelligence community whistleblower at the heart of the Ukraine scandal as part of a series of rants and conspiratorial posts overnight.
Trump or someone with access to his Twitter account removed the retweet Saturday morning.
Other retweets were also reversed, including pro-Trump and anti-Democrat memes from suspicious-looking Twitter accounts.
But his whistleblower-related post was the most noteworthy because nearly every public official involved in the impeachment inquiry agreed that the identity of the original complainant should be protected.
Trump has shared more than 100 posts about the whistleblower since September, almost entirely critical, but until this week he had refrained from sharing any content directly pointing to a person's name.
National security lawyer and CNN analyst Carrie Cordero wrote on Twitter Saturday that "just a few short years ago it would have been unthinkable for an American president to flout the law & intentionally endanger an intelligence community professional."
Trump's attempts "to intimidate the whistleblower show that his version of America is the opposite of a law & order nation," Cordero said. "Instead, it's one of lawlessness, of disregard for the institutions & the people in them who keep America safe, of recklessness & of the corrupt use of power."
