In a late-night social media blitz before his high-stakes China visit, Donald Trump unleashed a string of debunked conspiracy theories, AI-generated images and attacks on his political rivals. Posting 55 times in a span of 3 hours, Trump tore into former President Barack Obama, accusing him – without evidence – of treason and espionage during Trump’s 2016 election campaign. He also revived falsehoods that the election was “stolen” from him in 2020, and attacked the New York Times.
55 posts in 3 hours before a China visit? That’s not presidential, that’s a manic episode. And accusing Obama of treason with zero evidence is just dangerous.
So he’s pushing AI-generated images and debunked conspiracy theories again? The ‘stolen election’ lie and baseless attacks on Obama show he’s more focused on grievances than diplomacy.
I’m tired of these late-night rants. If he spent half as much time preparing for China as he does tweeting nonsense, maybe we’d actually see some real progress.
