WTF? Trump tweets they are moving forward with census citizenship question

Link to tweet

The News Reports about the Department of Commerce dropping its quest to put the Citizenship Question on the Census is incorrect or, to state it differently, FAKE! We are absolutely moving forward, as we must, because of the importance of the answer to this question.

1. not going to happen in spite of what trump thinks

2. Printing already started without that question

Reported widely this morning.

5. Do YOU want to be the WH-aide who's going to tell him?

[Watchfoxheadexplodes]

10. Lol they are all cowering in a corner

Just another way for him to get a faux headline.

17. They don't want to get marched out the door like the internal pollsters

If the doofus thinks we are going forward with the citizenship question, good for him and his total lack of reality.

13. I hope the ACLU is able to look at those printed forms ASAP.

I have no doubt tRump has already ordered that the question be printed on the forms. He will then fight anyone seeing the forms with the scheme that they can get close enough to the mail date to claim that there was a mistake, the question was added accidentally, but it’s now too late to print new forms, so they're mailing the forms with the illegal question.

Yes, he’s just that stupid and childish.

3. That schmuck lives in his own universe

which inhabits his head with talking voices that contradict reality.

He is fucking nuts.

9. Seriously impaired with delusions, IMO

Which indeed does translate to: Fucking nuts!

4. Typical Trump. He can't admit defeat so he tweets as if he wasn't defeated.

And then he'll move on to the next topic that grabs his attention and act as if the whole thing never happened.

7. Can you imagine what would be happening if a Democratic President was as disconnected to

reality as FROTUS is?

8. They're Gonna Drop 300 Million Census Form on His Desk and He's going to personally add the question

with a crayon.

[stopbush]

11. More lawlessness from the autocrat.

[DesertRat]

20. The SCOTUS decision prohibits him from "moving forward"

He doesn't understand the separation of powers or the U.S. Constitution. Someone on his staff will have to break it to him.
Welcome to DU, emmasanchez3!

14. So tRump's either lying again or being an abject idiot again (or both... again).

In American, we've learned to call those days 'Wednesdays.'

[ChubbyStar]

16. This made me LOL!

[DesertRat]

21. Yup.

[Arazi]

15. Unfortunately this is another autocratic step- ignoring or bypassing the courts

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

18. Exactly what I was thinking...... nt

[spanone]

19. with a bonus, he gets to again blame the media as 'FAKE'
