A man you can bait with a Tweet

Why is he tweeting this crap on Easter? This is the holiday message he chooses to share with America?

To be fair there were 4 or 5 tweets, one of which was "Happy Easter", these two, and then something about building a strong military and how he never called China a currency manipulator.

My memory might be fuzzy, but just from the top of my head I swear he explicitly labeled them as being such during one of the debates. It's recorded somewhere at any rate.

 

How long can people stand by someone who perpetually has their foot in their mouth?
