Trump Takes Big Swipe At Democratic Governors With Tweet About 'Mutiny'

Linkedin Share

President Trump is not the kind of guy who will take being attacked without swinging back, something we haven’t had in a president in a very, very long time. Maybe too long to even remember.

We’ve seen Trump take down the media on numerous occasions, sometimes in brutal fashion, however, he’s now set his sights on state governors he thinks are attempting to undermine his response to the coronavirus.

Here’s more from The Washington Examiner:

On Tuesday morning, Trump shared on social media that one of his “favorite” movies is Mutiny on the Bounty, which focused on the mutiny aboard a British vessel in 1789.

“Tell the Democrat Governors that ‘Mutiny On The Bounty’ was one of my all time favorite movies,” Trump tweeted. “A good old fashioned mutiny every now and then is an exciting and invigorating thing to watch, especially when the mutineers need so much from the Captain. Too easy!”

Trump has been doing battle against numerous Democratic governors since this coronavirus mess started, including NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, both of whom have taken shots at the president for the way he has handled the outbreak.

President Trump stated on Monday that he has “total” authority over the states and has the power to tell them when they can and can’t open up their economies.

Gov. Cuomo fired off a shot at the president over the claim of complete control over the states and said such a statement violates the Constitution which says, “we don’t have a king.”

“That is a king. We didn’t have a king. We didn’t have King George Washington. We have President George Washington.”

Amazing.

So all we have to do to get liberals on board with states’ rights is to somehow make the fight about Donald Trump? Unreal.

Trump, true to form, fired off a blast of his own.

“Cuomo’s been calling daily, even hourly, begging for everything, most of which should have been the state’s responsibility, such as new hospitals, beds, ventilators, etc. I got it all done for him, and everyone else, and now he seems to want Independence! That won’t happen!” Trump tweeted.

Do these folks really want to go head-to-head with Trump? Seems like an unwise idea. And besides that, we’re in the middle of a pandemic. We need to come together right now. Let’s set politics aside and work toward unity and overcoming this violent, unseen enemy.
