Having returned from his nine-day trip to the Middle East and Europe on Saturday evening, the clown who inhabits the White House decided it’d be a great idea to grab his phone Sunday morning and tweet out some nonsense that only winds up making him and his entire administration look even more guilty.
The president, obviously upset by the reports which came out earlier in the week regarding his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, being under federal investigation for allegedly trying to set up a back-channel communication with the Kremlin, fired off three tweets which could come back to haunt him:
It is my opinion that many of the leaks coming out of the White House are fabricated lies made up by the #FakeNews media.

Whenever you see the words 'sources say' in the fake news media, and they don't mention names….
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 28, 2017
….it is very possible that those sources don't exist but are made up by fake news writers. #FakeNews is the enemy!

Yes, he’s back to the “fake news” refrain he’s used so often in the past. The problem being that he’s such a blatant pathological liar the White House has become known as fake information central. Maybe his fading base of supporters still buys this bullshit, but the vast majority of Americans know Trump and his staffers are hiding something.
The response to Trump’s tweets was swift and direct:
If they are leaks proven correct…
How are they lies?

Side note, just a few weeks ago, you said you've been asking Director Comey to find the leakers…
Now apparently they're fabricated. ? pic.twitter.com/1Vz82xosFd

I’ve said this dozens of times already, but apparently President Trump is slow on the uptake, so I’ll repeat it again: If Trump has nothing to hide and all of the stories in the press are fake, why doesn’t he agree to testify, under oath, to both the House and Senate Intelligence Committees? He could also instruct his aides and advisers to do the same and urge them to not assert their Fifth Amendment privilege a single time. While he’s at it, Trump could also agreed to be deposed by the special counsel, Robert Mueller, and perhaps testify before a special grand jury that would be called for this sole purpose.
So what do you say, Donald? Ready to raise your hand and testify? Or are you scared shitless you’ll spill the truth and/or perjure yourself, either of which would lead to your impeachment? Because at the moment, with every tweet you send out and every lie you tell, you just wind up looking that much more guilty.
