Trump posts late-night social media spree as Iran war drags on

President posts over 50 times in three hours with attacks on Obama, NY Times and his supreme court appointees, and renewed calls to prosecute Democratic foes

Donald Trump unleashed a late-night social media tirade against his political enemies, attacking predecessors including Barack Obama with false accusations and amplifying calls for his Democratic rivals to be prosecuted.

Just hours before a high-stakes trip to China for talks with Xi Jinping, the US president posted more than 50 times in a three-hour spree from Monday evening into the early hours of Tuesday. Posts included doctored images of himself on the $100 bill and demands that political opponents be arrested.
