Is this the most tone-deaf tweet ever by Trump and his people?

As the markets crash , and leading economists now say it’s more likely than not that the United States will suffer a recession — because of Donald Trump’s "dumbest, most economically illiterate" tariff policy; as the bodies of four American soldiers , killed in a training exercise in Lithuania, are returned to their families; as a federal judge chastises Trump for deporting immigrants who are in the country legally; as an island of penguins discovers it’s been hit with tariffs ; as thousands from the Centers of Disease Control were fired, making the country vulnerable to disease, the president was playing golf this past weekend. Trump, it seems, is rewriting Lincoln: Fore score and 80 strokes ago ..

. Democratic congressman Adam Schiff says this could be the most enduring image of Trump’s second term: “The president out on a golf cart while peoples’ retirement is in flames.” Or, as Democratic Congressman Eric Swalwell tweeted : “Your 401k just became a 201k.



And the f—ing moron who did that to you is golfing the rest of the weekend in Miami. Let that sink in," he posted to X. Trump was labeled “President Nero” on social media.

But, wait, it gets worse. On Saturday, the White House social media account made sure Americans knew the president was victorious. It wasn’t enough that he was golfing while the world burned; he was celebrating his good fortune, too: “The President won his second round matchup of the Senior Club Championship today in Jupiter, FL, and advances to the Championship Round tomorrow.

” And, on Sunday, the White House announced he had won, which spurred this oblivious and cluelessly egotistical back-and-forth between Trump and reporters on Air Force One: Trump: “Any questions?: “How was the golf tournament?“ Trump: “Very good. Because I won. It’s good to win.

You heard I won, right? Did you hear I won? I like to win.” “What’s your handicap?” Trump: “Very low. I’ve a very low handicap.

” Congressman Brendan Boyle’s response was typical of hundreds on social media who ripped Trump and his staff: “Economy now heading into recession. Markets in free fall. Workers 401ks plummeting.

And what’s the White House talking about? Trump’s f--king golf score.” The president attended a LIV Golf event at his Doral golf resort over the weekend — Trump is a LIV Golf business partner — while also playing in a tournament. Why? Because optics don’t matter to Trump — nor the GOP, which once chastised Barack Obama for his choice of suit color in the White House.

“I think long ago he stopped caring about certain optics, and he’s made very clear during this presidency, he’s going to do what he wants,” reporter Maggie Haberman said. “And you know, it’s not just playing golf. He went down to a Saudi-backed golf tournament that his family business does business with, to speak at some event related to that.

So yes, all of this is true.” MORE POLITICAL COVERAGE Ex-GOP strategist says Trump turns her stomach: ‘Walking, talking ..
