John Podesta Responds To Trump's Tweet: 'Whack Job POTUS...Is Tweeting About Me At The G20'
- 7 years ago
John Podesta fired back at Trump after the president slammed him in a tweet on Friday.
John Podesta, Hillary Clinton's former campaign chairman, found himself in national spotlight once again on Friday, thanks to a tweet by President Trump who is visiting Hamburg, Germany for the G-20 summit.
The president wrote, "Everyone here is talking about why John Podesta refused to give the DNC server to the FBI and the CIA. Disgraceful!"
Hours later, Podesta fired back, "On a cross-country road trip with my wife," and "Pulled in for a pit stop in E. Fairmont W. Va. to see that our whack job POTUS...is tweeting about me at the G20."
It wasn't just Podesta who may have been somewhat perplexed by the timing and content of Trump's tweet. As Politico noted, Trump "did not explain why Podesta, who did not work for the DNC, would have been responsible for its email server."
Meanwhile, MSNBC's 'Morning Joe' co-host Joe Scarborough was skeptical that "everyone" in Hamburg was "talking about" Podesta.
Scarborough said, "I would dare say no one there is talking about that except whomever Donald Trump is speaking to inside his brain."
