Trump Lambasted for Tweet Promoting Sheriff Clarkes Book: Your Fellow Americans Are Getting Floodedby Josh Feldman | 8:47 am, August 27th, 2017
In between tweets on the response efforts to Hurricane Harvey, President Trump tweeted this morning a plug for Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarkes book Cop Under Fire:

You may notice that Clarkes tweet about his book is from March, so its not clear why the President promoted it now.

A lot of people tore into the President for the timing of this particular tweet:

(11,167 posts)Flood or no flood, endorsing this nut case is another beyond the pale antic by the orange anus.
I'm beginning to wonder how much more I can take.

(61,771 posts)This isn't an accident. Trump pardoned Arpaio on Friday for torturing and killing immigrants, and on Sunday he praised a man who is known for torturing and killing immigrants.
Trump's base loves this. They want more. Blood lust.

(23,191 posts)He has zero caring or empathy so it doesn't occur to him to try to help. This is just another day and more poisonous drivel is coming from PINO, nothing uplifting, no thanks for first responders, nothing good ever comes out of his mouth or his tiny fingers. If the words even sound halfway human, he's just reading what someone else wrote and he always sounds so wooden because he truly has no fucks to give about anyone in the world other than himself.

(130 posts)He feels if he mentions the flood and how bad it is, that is the end of it and it is back to normal tweeting and other topics. I'll bet he is more concerned over what he will have for breakfast than the flood devastation.

(3,330 posts)Seems Trump gives thumbs up to Clarke to make everybody feel positive about him and then promotes him.

(22,759 posts)someone(?) reminded him he is President and made him tweet out something about Harvey an hour later...

@realDonaldTrump
I will also be going to a wonderful state, Missouri, that I won by a lot in '16. Dem C.M. is opposed to big tax cuts. Republican will win S!
a really poor excuse for a human being

(5,106 posts)He was probably given the book in March, and just now finished reading it? If so, he's to be congratulated, this would be a major accomplishment for him Or maybe the audio version didn't come out until much later.
