    Chris Geidner Retweeted Donald J. Trump

    Trump is not happy Sessions has the IG looking into FISA abuse claims. There is absolutely no way, however, that I believe this rather complex thought process actually came from Trump. Either Fox News or someone did a thing on this, or someone else prepared this tweet. —>https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/968856971075051521 …

    Donald J. TrumpVerified account @realDonaldTrump
    Why is A.G. Jeff Sessions asking the Inspector General to investigate potentially massive FISA abuse. Will take forever, has no prosecutorial power and already late with reports on Comey etc. Isn’t the I.G. an Obama guy? Why not use Justice Department lawyers? DISGRACEFUL!

        It's astoundingly depressing that we've reached the point that "these words are much too coherent to have come from the President" has become a normal and true thing to say.

        I suspect Stephen Miller is sleeping in a trundle under @POTUS bed and is tweeting for him while DJT spends hours of "executive time" arranging his coiffure

        Prosecutorial has 6 syllables. No one who has listened to him speak without a teleprompter would or should believe there are any 6-syllable words in his lexicon.

        Have you ever bothered to meet Donald Trump? He relies MUCH less on teleprompters or notes when he speaks, from the heart, than any politician we've EVER heard speak. Talk less!

        Going to respond to your sentences 1-by-1. No, because I haven't been afforded the opportunity, that doesn't mean I have researched and listened extensively to people who HAVE met (and more than "met") him. 1/

        A $12 word like "prosecutorial" isn't coming out of the mouth of that stable genius.

        Looks like Trump watched to the end of Fox & Friends and then started his DVRed version of Fox's America's Newsroom. Same time gap as the other tweets this morning. Left, Fox, 9:02 am Right, Trump, 9:34 am pic.twitter.com/yG3yHQoJLk

        well since there’s no way POTUS understands what some of those words—never mind how to spell them—i’m thinking you’re 100% correct in the assertion this tweet was composed/tweeted out by someone NOT Trump 😏pic.twitter.com/gTyZDNGbMy
