Trump Just Sent One of His Most Disgusting Tweets About Democrats — And It’s an Absolute Lie

Donald Trump is currently in the air flying to Vietnam for his summit with Kim Jong Un but that didn’t stop him for logging into Twitter to send one of his most disgusting tweets ever.

Trump ramped up his attacks against Democratic senators over abortion after the Senate failed to advance an anti-abortion measure on Monday.

“Senate Democrats just voted against legislation to prevent the killing of newborn infant children,” Trump claimed on Twitter on Monday. “The Democrat position on abortion is now so extreme that they don’t mind executing babies AFTER birth.”

Trump continued in a separate tweet that “this will be remembered as one of the most shocking votes in the history of Congress.”

“If there is one thing we should all agree on, it’s protecting the lives of innocent babies,” he said.

What Trump says here is a lie. No one in the Democratic Party wants to execute babies.

Senate Democrats on Monday blocked a measure to penalize doctors who fail to “exercise the proper degree of care in the case of a child who survives an abortion or attempted abortion.”

The bill, which was sponsored by Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), was introduced with the intention of responding to a controversy in Virginia over late-term abortion.

Issues surrounding late-term abortion gained widespread attention in January after a Democratic-backed bill in Virginia’s state legislature proposed to loosen restrictions on late-term abortions in cases where the mother’s health is threatened.

Twitter quickly called Trump out and called out his lie:
