Trump Just Sent His First Tweet in Over 24 Hours — And It’s ‘Unhinged’

Donald Trump has been silent on Twitter for the past 24 hours, which is incredibly odd for the tweeter-in-chief. Well, he’s back with a brief tweet — and no one knows what he is talking about.

Trump tweeted, “The Left has become totally unhinged. They no longer care what is Right for our Countrty!”

We know Trump typed it himself because he misspelled “Country.”

However, we don’t know what the tweet is in reference to. The government shutdown? Rudy Giuliani’s crazy interview last night? Being told by Nancy Pelosi to postpone the State of the Union?

Reports have come out that Trump is losing it in the White House, and knows that he is getting “crushed.”

According to the New York Times, while watching news coverage of the shutdown recently, Trump turned to acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney, clearly heated.

A person with knowledge of the conversation told the Times that Trump said: “We are getting crushed! Why can’t we get a deal?”

Trump has been telling aides that he thinks Americans are going to forget all about the shutdown — which entered its 27th day today, and it’s the longest in U.S. history — and will instead remember that he demanded money for a southern border wall.

As Trump deals with the shutdown — his poll numbers dropping, Pelosi asking him to reschedule or drop the State of the Union address, and other debacles — Mulvaney is figuring out his new role in the White House.

Before becoming acting chief of staff on Jan. 3, Mulvaney led the Office of Management and Budget and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. So far, he’s taking a less rigid approach than his predecessor, John Kelly. He’s not limiting access to Trump or demanding he sign off on everything, the Times reports, telling staffers during a meeting, “You’re all adults.”

Twitter had some thoughts about Trump’s odd tweet:
