El Presidente Trump woke up this morning and thought it would be a great Saturday to slap around Senator Mitt Romney some more.
Somebody please wake up Mitt Romney and tell him that my conversation with the Ukrainian President was a congenial and very appropriate one, and my statement on China pertained to corruption, not politics. If Mitt worked this hard on Obama, he could have won. Sadly, he choked!

This is an insult he often uses, accusing his opponents of being “sleepy,” or “low energy.” It’s probably…. yes, the most effective political tool used by any politician in this or any century.
Mitt Romney never knew how to win. He is a pompous “ass” who has been fighting me from the beginning, except when he begged me for my endorsement for his Senate run (I gave it to him), and when he begged me to be Secretary of State (I didn’t give it to him). He is so bad for R’s!

Well, yeah, all of that seems accurate actually.
He also saved some slapdown for the whistleblower and Nancy and Schiff:
The so-called Whistleblower’s account of my perfect phone call is “way off,” not even close. Schiff and Pelosi never thought I would release the transcript of the call. Got them by surprise, they got caught. This is a fraud against the American people!

Also:
The Media is “Fixed” and Corrupt. It bears no relationship to the truth. The @nytimes & @washingtonpost are pure fiction. Totally dishonest reporting!

Another full morning of political tweeting by el presidente.
