Donald Trump on Thursday went on a Twitter rampage griping about whatever came to mind, and managed to come up with ‘perfect’ a campaign slogan… for Joe Biden.
One of his tweets seemed to be driven by the public removal of a growing number of Confederate statues and flags amid anti-racism protests sparked by last month’s police killing of George Floyd:
“THOSE THAT DENY THEIR HISTORY ARE DOOMED TO REPEAT IT!” trump tweeted.
Trump may have been referring to Confederate artifacts, but many Twitter users noted that his admonition could also be taken as a warning against reelecting him. And they pounced with glee on the president’s self-own.
Check some highlights below:
