Donald Trump Is Tweeting Again. Uh-Oh.

Someone let Donald Trump have the keys to his Twitter account back, and it’s going about as well as you’d expect.
Just out according to @CNN: "Utah officials report voting machine problems across entire country"

No, CNN is not reporting any such thing, as his critics are more than happy to point out.
I'm watching CNN. THIS IS BULLSHIT. https://t.co/T4stYbioo1

When this was tweeted, CNN was broadcasting a panel and @mkhammer was regaling us with Southern colloquialisms. https://t.co/wejw2OX1Eo

There have been reports of voting machines being broken in one Utah county. One county. Not the whole country.
How Utah officials could possibly speak to the status of voting machines across the country is a bit of a mystery, but Trump is the same guy who doesn’t know how many articles are in the Constitution, who thinks judges sign bills, and who isn’t quite sure what the nuclear triad is. So, not really surprising.
