@POTUS account just retweeted Trump's attack on Nordstrom. Taxpayers fund WH social media staff

Tweets from HuffPo's Christina Wilkie:




The official @POTUS account just retweeted Trump’s attack on @Nordstrom. That’s a taxpayer funded account being used to benefit Trump’s kid.






Of course Twitter is free, but the staff who maintain WH social media accounts are paid.




I have seen Trump use one account tp retweet something from the other, but this seems particularly petty. Possibly he's upset that he wasn't able to hurt Nordstrom's stock, which last I checked had a very slight dip after his original tweet and then rebounded -- shrugging his attack off, as the Financial Times pointed out.

It would be hilarious if Nordstrom's got a huge earnings boost out of this. tanyev Feb 2017 #1

Yeah. I will worry about how the world is treating his children when they are forced to beg in the streets for spare change just to eat.
