President Donald Trump said Monday that co-owner of the Atlantic magazine, Laurene Powell Jobs, should be "ashamed" about her donations to the presidential campaign of Democratic nominee Joe Biden.

Jobs, the widow of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, allegedly donated $500,000 during the second quarter of 2020 to Biden's campaign. The Atlantic has published articles criticizing Trump's behavior, including a September story which alleged that Trump referred to members of the U.S. military who were killed in action as "losers." Trump went on the offensive against both Jobs and the magazine on Twitter in response to a September tweet by podcast host Charlie Kirk, who contributes opinion pieces to Newsweek.

"The widow of Steve Jobs—Laurene Powell Jobs donated at least $500,000 to Joe Biden's campaign this year," Kirk wrote. "Do you know who owns a majority stake in The Atlantic? Laurene Powell Jobs."

"She should be ashamed of herself!" Trump tweeted Monday.

1. You mean like

Hannity?

[Evolve Dammit]

2. Like maybe for opposing your Christo-fascist Nazi supporters by supporting a moderate American with

legal campaign contributions? Sounds much more ethical than having Russians on your payroll. PS Call Rudy Colludy. Manafort? Stone? Igor? Rohrbacher? Come on Drumpf, let it all out. You may save your soul...
NA.

3. You mean like Sheldon Adelson who made a lot of his money in gambling and prostitution?

n/t

4. Just think how the Gates, Walton's, Buffett's, and Bezos families must feel.

Gotta be a super pac donation...$500k is a bit over the personal donation to a single campaign. But by now we don’t expect the President of the United States of America’s to know that.

5. I'm donating $20.00 more to Joe Biden in Laurene Powell Jobs's name. And more when I can.

6. hows is this news? nt

[Shrike47]

7. Why should she be ashamed? Really, that makes no sense.

[Lock him up.]

8. Probably because she's following the LAW?

Something that mob-bo$$-in-chief is always looking to break...

[displacedtexan]

9. She's a woman. Trump doesn't think she should spend money

without a man's approval. Since her husband is dead, Trump thinks his opinion alters.

As usual, he's a misogynistic moron.

[onetexan]

10. He's jealous of her since she's richer than him, AND that she's donating her $ to Biden camp

i'm sure it irks him to no end.

[Claire Oh Nette]

11. this

a powerful, truly wealthy woman, not one merely in debt, who thinks for herself made a decision about her own money. The horror.

I just subscribed to the Atlantic.

12. National Inquirer under David Pecker.

[Hip2bSquare]

13. I smile when drumpf's unhappy

I love when rumple-thin-skin goes on a temper tantrum. I know they want their little tiki torch brigade to harass her, but I'm sure she is a tough woman and knows exactly what's at stake.

fight on nasty woman!

14. How about Trump donations to Porn Stars for Sex ???? Is he ashamed of that ?

[FakeNoose]

15. I doubt that Laurene Powell Jobs is ashamed of herself

... but I'm certain she's ashamed of her sorry-ass American President.

16. When I think about the National Enquirer

back in 2016 doing a hatchet job on Hillary, I say to Mr. Trump - fuck off and die.

I have been quite amused that the National Enquirer has not blasted Joe and Kamala. Possibly because there's no dirt.

It is sad that Republican leaders are some of the scummiest people on the planet, but their people still vote for them. But Democrats have to be squeaky clean.
