Hard to believe that with thousands of people from South of the Border, walking unimpeded toward our country in the form of large Caravans, that the Democrats won’t approve legislation that will allow laws for the protection of our country. Great Midterm issue for Republicans!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 17, 2018
This is a very important time in our country. Due Process, Fairness and Common Sense are now on trial!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 4, 2018
Our country’s great First Lady, Melania, is doing really well in Africa. The people love her, and she loves them! It is a beautiful thing to see.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 4, 2018
Clearly, the stage was primed and ready for the citizens of Twitter to respond:
Well, thank goodness the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES took this time to share his commitment to the bastardization of capitalization. I feel much safer now.— Christopher Bartlett (@TheToph_72) October 20, 2018
