Trump is hosting a Social Media Summit at the White House this week, but that didn’t stop him from lashing out via Twitter at the same companies he invited to Washington. In a series of tweets, Trump joked about serving ten to fourteen years as president, mocked various Democratic presidential candidates, and called social media companies dishonest and biased.
“A big subject today at the White House Social Media Summit will be the tremendous dishonesty, bias, discrimination, and suppression practiced by certain companies,” Trump tweeted. “We will not let them get away with it much longer. The Fake News Media will also be there, but for a limited period… The Fake News is not as important, or as powerful, as Social Media. They have lost tremendous credibility since that day in November 2016, that I came down the escalator with the person who was to become your future First Lady. When I ultimately leave office in six, years, or maybe 10 or 14 (just kidding), they will quickly go out of business for lack of credibility, or approval, from the public.”
Trump then asked how Americans would feel to have “Sleepy Joe” Biden as President, and said Americans were lucky to have him instead.
“Could you imagine having Sleepy Joe Biden, or @AlfredENeuman99, or a very nervous and skinny version of Pocahontas (1000/24th), as your President, rather than what you have now, so great looking and smart, a true Stable Genius! Sorry to say that even Social Media would be driven out of business along with, and finally, the Fake News Media!” Trump wrote.\
Trump refers to Democratic candidate Pete Buttigieg as “Alfred Neuman,” the character from Mad Magazine. “Pocahontas” is his nickname for Massachusetts Elizabeth Warren, a nickname many critics have decried as racist and demeaning.
