9/11: Donald Trump's picture tweet sparks outrage
The United States president, Donald Trump, sparked outrage on twitter on Wednesday, September 11, with his tweet that marked the 18th anniversary of 9/11 attack.
Trump’s tweet was accompanied by a picture of him and the first lady, Melania Trump, as they backed the camera, carrying the caption “We Will Never Forget”. Many critics on the micro-messaging platform took him to the cleaners for trying to make the anniversary all about himself. Others said that the president bragged about having the tallest building in Manhattan the same day thousands died.

A symbolic photograph. Donald Trump has turned his back on America every day of his illegitimate presidency.
