President Donald Trump spent hours Monday night into early Tuesday morning publishing dozens of social media posts attacking his perceived enemies – including sharing a post that called former President Barack Obama a “demonic force” – in what one prominent Democratic influencer called “one of his worst mental health episodes yet.”
“Trump had one of his worst mental health episodes yet last night, posting over 55 times in 3 hours,” wrote Harry Sisson, a prominent liberal political commentator in a social media post on X Tuesday to his more than 388,000 followers. “This man is clearly not well.”
Trump’s first post in the late-night social media blitz was published at 10:15 p.m. ET, and his last, at 1:13 a.m. ET, meaning the president posted on average roughly once every three minutes. The content of the posts varied widely, ranging from calls to arrest Obama to footage appearing to show a man deliberately knocking over a waiter’s tray at a Florida restaurant.
“How do you cover this?” asked former MSNBC journalist Mehdi Hasan, now the editor-in-chief of Zeteo, in a social media post on X Tuesday.
“A previous president would have received wall to wall coverage for even one of these [posts]. And yet Trump floods the zone and the media cannot and often will not cover the sheer extent of his insanity and indecency.”
Others, like Claude Taylor, a political operative who served in the Clinton administration, suspected that Trump’s late night posting blitz would impact the president’s ability to stay awake on Tuesday, with the president spotted on Monday appearing to doze off during a maternal health care event at the White House.
“What public events will Trump sleep through today?” Taylor asked in a social media post on X Tuesday.
Other critics, like Roy Bellamy, a senior producer for a popular sports-talk show, echoed Taylor’s suggestion.
“He’s definitely napping during a press availability today,” Bellamy wrote Tuesday in a social media post on X.
Journalist Mark Ames theorized that Trump’s ongoing and wildly unpopular war against Iran may have played a role in prompting the social media posting spree.
“Defeat in Iran + dementia doing wonders on what’s left of Trump’s brain,” Ames wrote in a social media post on X Tuesday to their nearly 90,000 followers.
