Even though President Trump is currently facing removal from the presidency — and is busy meeting with foreign leaders in Switzerland — he still has time to mix things up on social media.
Trump fired out more than a dozen tweets and retweets on Twitter early Wednesday morning, covering every subject from the U.S. economy to the “impeachment charade” to the Iowa caucuses.
Then he tossed out a Molotov cocktail.
“They are taking the nomination away from Bernie for a second time. Rigged!” Trump wrote.
The latest CNN poll shows Sen. Bernie Sanders atop the heap at 27%, with former Vice President Joe Biden at 24% and Sen. Elizabeth Warren at 14%. Former South Bend mayor Pete Buttigieg stands at 11%, but all other candidates are in single digits, including former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg at just 5%.
And in a Boston Globe poll, Sanders leads Biden in New Hampshire, 16% to 15%. But Biden leads Sanders in Iowa 24% to Sanders’ 14%. Warren comes in between the two at 18%, with Buttigieg at 16%.
But The New York Times on Sunday weighed in on the race for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, endorsing Warren and Sen. Amy Klobuchar, who is barely a blip on the polls. And few bigtime Democratic leaders have endorsed Sanders for the nomination.
Hillary Clinton even went out of her way to throw shade at Sanders.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter published on Tuesday, Clinton was asked if she would endorse Sanders and campaign for him if he wins the nomination. “I’m not going to go there yet,” she said. “We’re still in a very vigorous primary season.”
Then she returned to bashing the Vermont democratic socialist.
