Donald Trump Starts the Week by Tweeting About the Past

It’s April, but president Donald Trump seems to be unable to let go of the election and his former challenger. He started Monday morning off by tweeting the question: “Was the brother of John Podesta paid big money to get the sanctions on Russia lifted? Did Hillary know?” referring to a Fox News segment in which Newt Gingrich talked about Podesta’s brother. He sent another tweet shortly after that focusing directly on Hillary Clinton:

People on social media reacted with sarcasm and imitated his use of “just asking.”


Even some conservative media personalities seem to have had enough of Trump’s tweeting and say it’s time to move on.
