El Presidente Trumpo hit the twitter hard again this morning, and covered many topics.
Late last night he defended Scott Pruitt:
While Security spending was somewhat more than his predecessor, Scott Pruitt has received death threats because of his bold actions at EPA. Record clean Air & Water while saving USA Billions of Dollars. Rent was about market rate, travel expenses OK. Scott is doing a great job!

He quoted Jesse Watters about alleged FBI bias:
“The FBI closed the case on Hillary, which was a rigged investigation. They exonerated her even before they ever interviewed her, they never even put her under oath.....” and much more. So true Jesse! @WattersWorld

Is he setting up the case for denying Mueller’s request for an interview?
And he went after the Washington Post, saying that he’s satisfied with his chief of staff, John Kelly, for now:
The Washington Post is far more fiction than fact. Story after story is made up garbage - more like a poorly written novel than good reporting. Always quoting sources (not names), many of which don’t exist. Story on John Kelly isn’t true, just another hit job!

AND he said that we WILL WIN the trade war with China because our opponent will dig deep and realize that they were in the wrong the entire time!!!
President Xi and I will always be friends, no matter what happens with our dispute on trade. China will take down its Trade Barriers because it is the right thing to do. Taxes will become Reciprocal & a deal will be made on Intellectual Property. Great future for both countries!

Ah yes, the Chinese Communists are known for their graciousness and assiduous attention to fairness and magnanimity!!
Finally, he blames the Syrian chemical attack on Obama, and blames Russia!!!:
Many dead, including women and children, in mindless CHEMICAL attack in Syria. Area of atrocity is in lockdown and encircled by Syrian Army, making it completely inaccessible to outside world. President Putin, Russia and Iran are responsible for backing Animal Assad. Big price...

....to pay. Open area immediately for medical help and verification. Another humanitarian disaster for no reason whatsoever. SICK!

If President Obama had crossed his stated Red Line In The Sand, the Syrian disaster would have ended long ago! Animal Assad would have been history!

It’s surprising that he would blame Russia, and he’s right to do. But the fact that he’s blaming Obama and considering the statements his administration has made about Syria, I think he’s prepping us all to do nothing about the chemical attack. Remember his missile attack after a previous chemical bombing? His base, including the alt-right, hated that decision. And later he said it was because Ivanka showed him pictures of baby victims. Is he going to do that again?
