Showing Original Post only (View all)I believe Trump's inflammatory twitters are for two reasons. [View all]
One, To create a distraction from some other BS that is going on That the Dotard and his minions dont want the public to be thinking about.
Two, to embarrass and degrade the United States as much as possible using Twitter. To do whatever he can to destroy this country by hurting the countrys image in the eyes of the rest of the world. I wouldnt be surprised if somebody who is compos mentis is helping him with this part of it.
