President Donald Trump smashed the retweet button on criticisms of former Vice President Joe Biden a staggering fifty-plus times in one hour on Wednesday.

Trump seems to have been mining the replies to pro-Trump pundit Dan Bongino’s tweet after the International Association of Fire Fighters endorsed Biden on Monday.

Trump has reportedly been anxious about Biden’s entry into the race for some time, fretting that the former Vice President can appeal to crossover and blue-collar voters that proved critical to Trump’s 2016 victory.

  1. Oh, I only wish on him something a little bit more severe than a little carpal tunnel.

  2. NONE of the Firemen I know are supporting Joe Biden for President. :point_down:t2: https://t.co/4fxN35oevu

    So, best case scenario, Bongino might know, what, about .00000001% of the firemen in the nation?
    
    Ergo, his tweet is nonsense.
  3. President Donald Trump smashed the retweet button on criticisms of former Vice President Joe Biden a staggering fifty-plus times in one hour on Wednesday.

    On balance, besides choking on bread, what else would you rather have him do?

  4. I don’t think he read before he retweeted. 50-plus tweets in an hour seems to be too demanding a task of reading for Trump.

  5. Such a statesman! What leadership!

    What a petty, ignorant fool.
