Freed of briefing duty, wounded Trump airs full collection of grievances on Twitter.

President Trump’s first tweet Sunday came unusually late, popping up a few minutes after noon — hours behind schedule for a president who is often awake and tweeting as the sun rises.

“Happy Birthday to Melania, our great First Lady!” Trump tweeted at 12:06 p.m.

The celebratory tweet kicked off a long day of tweeting and retweeting that really ramped up at around 2 p.m. when Trump observed, in response to a recent New York Times article, that those who know him regard him as “the hardest working President in history.”

Over the next seven hours or so, Trump took aim at everything and anyone he could, unleashing a barrage of more than two dozen tweets and retweets that targeted media outlets, high-profile commentators and hosts, and Democrats.

He also returned once more to the Russia probe and impeachment, promoting a tweet that accused his political adversaries of “three failed coup attempts.” The tweet went on to suggest with no evidence that the president’s opponents could “attempt to steal the election” by making the novel coronavirus’s impact on human lives seem worse than it really is.

I knew it would only be a matter of time before he broke out with Democrats trying to steal the election. He is so tone deaf and out of touch. As it stands today, 55,000 people are dead. Almost 1 million infected. Nobody will have to make the impact look worse than it is. It is already horrific. But he can't see that. 55,000 dead is a win for him.

this year, since he is stuck in oUR House, and is soooooooooo busy and all.

When he faints from overwork and hunger and exhaustion, who has to pick him up? Or do they have one of those medical lift things handy?
