Trump Tweets Link To Name Of Alleged Whistleblower

The Daily Beast reports:

On Thursday evening, Donald Trump pushed out on Twitter the name of the alleged whistleblower whose complaint led to the president’s impeachment.

Trump’s personal Twitter account, @realDonaldTrump, retweeted a post by the re-election campaign’s official “war room” account that was aimed at the whistleblower’s attorney Mark Zaid.

“It’s pretty simple. The CIA ‘whistleblower’ is not a real whistleblower!” reads the tweet, which links to a Washington Examiner item. That piece, published Dec. 3, includes the alleged whistleblower’s name in the headline.

Given his escalating rage and erratic behavior, this was probably inevitable, but please don’t let that distract from the fact that this is truly deplorable and should deeply concern every American.https://t.co/HZ3wdPb2Bk
