Trump Torched on Twitter After Father's Day Tweetstorm Claiming He's 'More Popular Than Obama'

fter six months in office, #Donald Trump is facing non-stop criticism as a result of a variety of issues. Despite his approval rating continuing to drop, the president decided to spend his Father's Day morning tweeting questionable information about his popularity.

Trump on Twitter When Donald Trump kicked off his campaign for president back in June 2015, not many people knew how to take it. The consensus was that his candidacy was nothing more than a joke, with some believing it was a stunt to generate ratings on his reality show. However, as time went on, the former host of "The Apprentice" gained popularity by running on a controversial message that catered to those looking for a so-called "Washington Outsider." After winning the GOP primary and eventually the general election over Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, Trump was sworn into office last January.

During the transition period, former President Barack Obama appeared to put partisan politics aside and went above and beyond to help Trump into the White House. Despite getting along during that time, the new commander in chief has gone on to lash out at Obama on more than one occasion, most notably accusing him of wiretapping Trump Tower during the election. During a series of tweets on June 18, Trump decided to brag about his alleged success as president, while taking another shot at Obama in the process.

It’s one of those internet traffic analyzer gizmos. Those exist so that leftard scripted bots spamming comments can be counted as actual humans so that the maybe as much as 10% of the pop can be artificially magnified to appear as 50% or more.

The president knows two things. One, he can get his message out and around the media bulls**t by tweeting directly to the American people. Second, he knows full well he’s living rent free in the heads of every liberal in America and he’s taking the opportunity to dig at them on our behalf and his as well. More than any Republican dead or alive President Trump has fully exposed the depravity, the lunacy, and the outright corruption of the American left. He’s also exposed the Republican Party for what it really is, as nothing more than a wing of the globalist cabal along with the Democrats. We needed someone who was going to have the fortitude to put up with the s**tstorm that would be coming their way by changing Washington DC.
