DONALD TRUMP AIDE BLASTED OBAMA FOR VISITING CUBA IN 2016, CALLING IT EQUIVALENT TO GOING TO NORTH KOREA
BY JASON LEMON ON 7/2/19 AT 9:31 AM EDT
An official from President Donald Trump's administration lashed out at Barack Obama back in 2016 before the then-president's visit to Cuba that year, saying such an action would be tantamount to an American commander-in-chief visiting North Korea.
"@BarackObama visiting Cuba is equivalent to visiting North Korea [sic] Embracing communism is anti-American," Mercedes Schlapp wrote on Twitter at the time, arguing the former president "is giving Castro dictators a pass."
Schlapp has served as the White House director of strategic communications under Trump, announcing on Monday that she would leave that role to serve on the president's reelection campaign instead. It's unclear whether her sentiments toward North Korea have changed since she attacked Obama on Twitter back in 2016, but a sitting U.S. president visiting North Korea on the weekend has not caused Schlapp to end her support of Trump.

(14,168 posts)Hey idiot MSM. Why not actually keep bugging her how she can explain and put the two together then? Instead of it ending with "The White House did not immediately respond to Newsweek's request for comment". OF COURSE THEY ARE NOT GOING TO RESPOND.
