Well, this is kinda fun. Former presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton were on Twitter last week individually tweeting out sideway digs at Donald Trump.
Carters jab comes from the Jimmy Carter Library. Its not clear how involved the Nobel Peace Prize Laureate was in the humorous deed, but whether it was directly from Carter or one of his representatives the point was made.
In the tweet, Jimmy Carters first 100 days in office were compared with Donald Trumps first 100 days (which as many are aware, were a Huge DisasterSad!)
Here is the tweet from Jimmy Carter Library.

And we have a winner (not that Carter needs to compete) in the categories of major/bonafide laws passed and approval ratings. As for Trumps executive orders, they were easy for him to write and boast, but as with his Muslim ban and his unpopular, ridiculous and bigly expensive border wall, Trumps wishes and power can be overturned and/or scratched by the courts and by Democrats)
The other tweet is by Bill Clinton who mocked Trumps unfounded wiretapping allegation that former President Barack Obama was bugging Trump in more ways than one.
Here is Bill Clintons tweet.

Were still waiting to see if Obama will tweet out a jab, but then again, the mere existence of Obama seems to be a constant thorn in Donald Trumps side.
Oh, those boys. Presidents will be presidents and then theres Trump.

I hope he's resumed taking his medication.
