Trump Just Claimed He’s Our ‘Favorite President’ and No President Besides Lincoln Has Been Treated Worse Than Him

Donald Trump is back to boasting about being “your favorite president” on Twitter this Saturday morning.

As the longest government shutdown in U.S. history drags on, the president used his favorite social media platform on Saturday morning to complain about being treated unfairly by the media.

Trump tweeted, “Newt Gingrich just stated that there has been no president since Abraham Lincoln who has been treated worse or more unfairly by the media than your favorite President, me! At the same time there has been no president who has accomplished more in his first two years in office!”

Trump also claimed to have achieved more during his first two years in office than any other president. In another tweet, Trump boasted about the stock market and warned: “You want to see a Stock Market Crash, Impeach Trump!”

Trump’s tweet followed a report by BuzzFeed which claimed Trump told his former personal lawyer Michael Cohen to lie to Congress. Special counsel Robert Mueller’s office has pushed back on the allegation, but BuzzFeed stands by its reporting.

Twitter disagreed with Trump wholeheartedly:
