As anyone who worked for him will confirm, I was very critical of Obama. I never got threats I get now. So, yes, I hold Trump responsible for promoting, legitimizing, normalizing, and empowering hate & division. He's the conductor of this orchestra. Until he stops, it won't stop.
You are barking up the wrong árbol. I was critical of and spoke-out agains many Obama era immigration policies and broken promises. But nice try to somehow divert from and justify what Trump is doing, tearing children away from their mothers. Adios, troll. https://t.co/SHxogWefMF
THEN: Trump was quick to demand a public apology from the cast of a Broadway play for addressing Mike Pence about American values.
NOW: Trump’s White House is incapable of issuing a public apology for a cruel remark about a national hero confronting brain cancer.

-A person in a moment of bad judgement is capable of thoughtlessly saying something cruel and stupid that hurts others.
-A person with bad character is incapable of publicly admitting the mistake and genuinely apologizing for saying something cruel and stupid that hurts others. https://t.co/LxQI3D9DqZ
It’s spelled “chancla”, short for “chancleta”. My mother is a certified sharpshooter with one. But yes, I get your point, girl. https://t.co/KAIliVuIrH
Prediction: If Trump strikes Syria, it’ll be shortly before, and to distract from @Comey interview w/Stephanopoulos this Sunday. For real, Comey book has #PresidentLoco acting crazier than usual. And that’s a high-bar.
Also, ALL THIS SCREAMING ON TWITTER is making my head hurt. https://t.co/gCmtCRXvUk
DACA:
-2008 Obama promised immig reform 1st yr. Spent chits on Obamacare, got zero from GOP, gave up on immig
-Obama created DACA thru EO
-Trump ended DACA w/6 mo. window
-Trump & GOP Congress did jack, nada to fix it
-Obama fail then
-Trump/GOP own it now
-Trump shafted Dreamers
Of course in this holiest of weekends for Christians, #PresidentLoco is ranting in tweet attacks against a US company & governor. What else would you expect from the pious man who’s been the best president for Christians in US history? At least he’s leaving 🐰’s alone...for now.
Dear God: let me not be one who tells kids not to demand action, “call BS”, fearlessly & respectfully -or disrespectfully- speak truth to power & learn CPR, instead. Let me not be one who attacks kids -Kyle, Emma, David, Sasha, Barron or any other kid- to score a political point.
Scheduling reminder:
Stormy Daniels’ interview on @60Minutes airs tonight at 7pm EST on @CBS.
Means you need to set your alarm to remember to microwave your bag of pop-corn at 6:55pm. 🍿
You’re welcome.

Daily Recap:
Ben Carson says running HUD harder than brain surgery. He was good at one, sucks at the other; Trump has miraculously held the same position on something -tariffs- for more than a day; Oscars were a snooze; Sam Nunberg nominated for Best Supporting Actor in a drama.
Folks, in the midst of the revelations about Rob Porter and domestic abuse, there’s one crucial lesson that should not be lost: if anyone ever lays a hand on you, take a picture. Document it. Save the photo.
That’s what made the difference.
That’s what made it undeniable.
