Trump was attacking social media companies for fact-checking his lies and rage-tweeting about the Russia investigation for hours before making any sort of statement about the grim new death toll.

The coronavirus death toll surpassed the 100,000 mark Wednesday afternoon, leading to an immediate flood of statements from politicians of all stripes issuing condolences to those who have lost loved ones in the pandemic.

Rather than immediately marking the moment, however, Donald Trump instead spent the next 17 hours angrily tweeting nearly 50 times about the Russia investigation that ended more than a year ago, as well as vowing to retaliate against social media companies that attempt to fact-check his lies before finally tweeting a message about the dead.

"We have just reached a very sad milestone with the coronavirus pandemic deaths reaching 100,000," Trump tweeted at 9:37 a.m. Thursday morning. "To all of the families & friends of those who have passed, I want to extend my heartfelt sympathy & love for everything that these great people stood for & represent. God be with you!"

Shortly after the death toll reached the 100,000 mark, Trump tweeted a video from right-wing Fox Business host Lou Dobbs, in which Dobbs called Trump the "greatest president in our history."

Well asshole your 3.5 years to late that you care about anything, and to now express your version of "empathy" for the deaths of over 100,000+ on your watch during a pandemic that was declared by the WHO four months ago, well your over 270 days to late on that front also, and other point of being a failure>
This must have been excruciating to perform this side show for your ego, and the only reason why you did this is because Biden beat you. he did it yesterday, that's correct, the only reason why you and your worthless staff performed this shit show was because your opponent has more empathy in his entire body and everyone see's it and hears it.
You on the other hand are only worried about wrapping your megalomaniac fingers for your swing on a golf club trying to get out of the rough grass..............

1. That was Dan Scavino, NOT DUMP.

Dump would never tweet his sympathy for the people who have died.

NEVER.

2. I assume he DID write the next one

Blaming China

3. Gah! That ugly face!

He is so incredibly hideous. And he's sporting the famous chingina.

It's like all the ugliness inside him has finally risen to the surface.

9. That neck nookie looked pretty swollen!

He must be excited about something!

4. Also....

The empathy post lacked the telltale random initial caps of his real posts. Though it did use and ampersand.

5. Only after Biden did a condolence video

That is what this fake tweet is about.

8. NO one believes he wrote that. It doesn't sound anything like his other tweets.

At best, he allowed someone to write it for him.
