      .@realDonaldTrump is a bully. And a racist. He's combining those traits to distract the American people from the #MuellerReport and create division in our nation. For everyone standing behind the President, including @HouseGOP, here's a reminder of just some of his racist momentshttps://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1155866838779215875 …
