Twitter Meltdown Alert after SCOTUS rebuke of Trump

https://www.rawstory.com/2020/07/trump-melts-down-on-twitter-after-his-own-supreme-court-appointees-rebuke-him-on-financial-cases/

On Thursday, following the 7-2 rulings from the Supreme Court rejecting President Donald Trump’s claims of absolute immunity in the New York tax returns and House financial oversight cases, the president took to Twitter to complain.

In the thread, Trump whined that he was being unfairly targeted by the Supreme Court decisions — which were joined by the two justices he appointed — and claimed he was a victim of “prosecutorial misconduct.”

Prosecutorial misconduct, that's the ticket, Donny.

But of course, Trump is washing his hands of them. HE is immune from COVID despite getting tested every day. One day, the results will be positive as more around Trump come down with it.

Trump will become even more PARANOID.

...as they've since been deleted.

Guess Mr. Bongino not only forgot that the intertubes remember everything, forever -- he forgot about that annoying little Presidential Records Act.
