https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/20/politics/donald-trump-sunday-tweets/index.htmlOn Sunday morning, President Donald Trump tweeted. And tweeted. And tweeted.
Between 9:04 am and 9:37 am, Trump sent 5 tweets -- all around the same basic theme: He is being unfairly persecuted by special counsel Robert Mueller even as Mueller and the broader FBI overlook crimes by Democrats.
The tweets are riddled with misinformation and, in some cases, outright falsehoods. Taken together, Trump said 11 things that aren't true. Here's the breakdown -- tweet by tweet

(870 posts)He's played victim to the point some in his own camp are tired of it. He's attacked everything about America and its Governance, and within his own camp people are getting tired of that too.
After incessant playing victim and incessant attacking "everything".... "anyone get's tired of it after a point"...
People are an interesting lot in life.... what they think but often may not say, can be different for what some may think they are thinking.
Trump is wearing thin, on many levels and it showing more and more and more, the "loud mouth brigade" is continually proving to be as insulting to the premise and fact of America, and even some of the die hard Trumper's are finding that out. They may not say it, because they live among other Trumper's... but fact is... it is a cycle of failures and misguided campaign aim, and time is showing that the ignorance behind it all is exposing itself...
The true core who buy into the ignorance, won't change, because they love the racist tonality, and the delusion of thinking they will get to play "white dominance games again", and that is a history of madness that is to never return to America, nor will America ever be able to use that madness to go stomping around the world disregarding the dignity and humanity of others in foreign nation.
THE WORLD IS CHANGING... and within that Change, the world is NON Accepting of the Ignorance the Right Wing Promotes, nor that which the Republican support and certainly not that which Trump spouts out.
He's INSULTED THE CHARACTER OF AMERICA that the world once respected. Many nation don't have the same regard for American's as they once had, because they see us as a society that tolerates this ignorance and to many we appear weak on values and weak on standing up for what they have long though America to be. They (Foreigners in Foreign Lands) are seeking that the Racist Ignorance is far too widespread in American and the America people have allowed this to continue into the second year, even while knowing how vile it is... So... to many in the world, our word is weak and our support of the ideals is presenting itself as being weaker than the world thought.
No other leader in the world insults his nation ON A DAILY BASIS the way that Trump does, and we have allowed it to continue, to the point he attacks our Judicial System and every other agency in this country.
