Just ignore the tweets, and make him show up at press conferences if he wants to present his opinions to the media.
You're making it 100 times worse if you don't ignore the tweets.

(22,651 posts)twitter accounts. That's our Federal government and donalds personal tweets become part of our official government records. along with the Nazi accounts he follows on his personal twitter account.
He won't tweet that stupid shit on official government twitter. If anyone should ignore trumps personal account tweets it's the media who make headlines from non-official tweets.

(22,651 posts)Several old, old shutdown mines around Grand Canyon. American mined Ur. ore is very low quality, doesn't sell for much and is very dirty and takes forever to refine.
Ore is probably exported to any close country like Russia because they'll let their prison outcasts in Siberia refine the ore. They don't really care if refine process harms people and pollutes the air, land and water needed to refine.

(2,807 posts)He is making himself irrelevent. And he is doing it to himself. Soon, very soon, nobody will care what he says or what he tweets.
And the sweetest thing, he's doing it all himself.
Amazing thing to witness.

(2,198 posts)"The Uranium One deal was not Clintons to veto or approve
Among the ways these accusations stray from the facts is in attributing a power of veto or approval to Secretary Clinton that she simply did not have. Clinton was one of nine cabinet members and department heads that sit on the CFIUS, and the secretary of the treasury is its chairperson. CFIUS members are collectively charged with evaluating the transaction for potential national security issues, then turning their findings over to the president. By law, the committee cant veto a transaction; only the president can. According to The New York Times, Clinton may not have even directly participated in the Uranium One decision. Then-Assistant Secretary of State Jose Fernandez, whose job it was to represent the State Dept. on CFIUS, said Clinton herself never intervened in committee matters.
The timing of most of the donations does not match
Of the $145 million allegedly contributed to the Clinton Foundation by Uranium One investors, the lions share $131.3 million came from a single donor, Frank Giustra, the companys founder. But Giustra sold off his entire stake in the company in 2007, three years before the Russia deal and at least 18 months before Clinton became secretary of state.
Of the remaining individuals connected with Uranium One who donated to the Clinton Foundation, only one was found to have contributed during the same time frame that the deal was taking place, according to The New York Times Ian Telfer, the companys chairman:
His donations through the Fernwood Foundation included $1 million reported in 2009, the year his company appealed to the American Embassy to help it keep its mines in Kazakhstan; $250,000 in 2010, the year the Russians sought majority control; as well as $600,000 in 2011 and $500,000 in 2012. Mr. Telfer said that his donations had nothing to do with his business dealings, and that he had never discussed Uranium One with Mr. or Mrs. Clinton. He said he had given the money because he wanted to support Mr. Giustras charitable endeavors with Mr. Clinton. Frank and I have been friends and business partners for almost 20 years, he said.
The timing of Telfers donations might be questionable if there was reason to believe that Hillary Clinton was instrumental in the approval of the deal with Russia, but all the evidence points to the contrary that Clinton did not play a pivotal role, and, in fact, may not have played any role at all."

(5,810 posts)tRump is feeling the walls closing in on him and his whole sordid mess of a presidency. He will do anything and everything to try to make things go back to the way he wants. No scandals. No investigations. A Congress that co-operates completely. He is flailing and failing but his fall back strategy is always to distract and deflect blame.
It has worked for him in the past so why not use it now? The problem is he didn't have a mandate and even some of the people who voted for him were not gung-ho. So as the wheels come off the bus it is evident this thing is a hopeless mess. Don't be surprised at anything delusional Don does as his world caves in around him. A rabid animal that is cornered will snarl, scratch and bite in a last ditch effort to avoid being caught.
