Our petty and infantile president decided to pout through a tweet.
Now that the three basketball players are out of China and saved from years in jail, LaVar Ball, the father of LiAngelo, is unaccepting of what I did for his son and that shoplifting is no big deal. I should have left them in jail!

Trump was responding to the father of one of the basketball players detained in China for shoplifting after Lavar Ball scorned Trump’s work for his son’s release.
On another subject, the Pentagon “accidentally” retweeted the following.
The solution is simple…
Roy Moore: Step down from the race.
Al Franken: Resign from congress.
Donald Trump: Resign from the presidency.
GOP: Stop making sexual assault a partisan issue. It’s a crime as is your hypocrisy.

The tweet was posted hours after Leeann Tweeden, a model and broadcaster, shared an account of being forcibly kissed by Franken in 2006, two years before he ran for the Senate. Franken was a comedian at the time, and traveled with Tweeden and other celebrities to the Middle East as part of a USO holiday tour to thank U.S. troops for their service.
The DoD response?
