AJC's Bookman: 2 hours after tweeting about anthem, Trump showed the world he didn't know the words

Tweet from Jay Bookman of the Atlanta Journal Constitution:




Two hours after tweeting this stirring defense of the national anthem, Donald Trump walked onto the field of the national championship game and showed the world he did not know the words.

I would proclaim that moment "peak Trump," but there's always tomorrow...

Why is he so worried about our farmers? I guess he's not that worried about them, though, because he capitalized GREAT AMERICAN FLAG. Clearly, decorative pieces of fabric hold a position of greater importance in his mind.

He doesn't know the words to the NATIONAL ANTHEM. I'll bet he doesn't know how many stripes are on the GREAT AMERICAN FLAG. And I'm sure he doesn't know thing one about farming.

Well actually NAFTA is on Trump's chopping block, I heard tell that most farmers like it. So as a s Trump's usual and typical MO, he is really talking about himself, but attempting to portray the opposite.

He can no longer depend on his own wits, and his family are a group of nits. As he continues to throw his Twitter fits, he undermines himself into tiny bits.
