The big news of the day yesterday was — of course — the terror attack that left 4 U.S. Marines dead in Chattanooga, Tenn., but there wasn’t a single tweet about the incident on Hillary Clinton’s timeline.
She did find the time to tweet this today, however:
My best wishes to those celebrating the end of the holy month of Ramadan. Eid Mubarak. -H

Wow. Tone deaf, to say the least:
@HillaryClinton like I would vote for u, and I am not a Muslim hater. I just wish you would've given condolences in Chattanooga too.

@HillaryClinton Are you off your meds? Seriously?…

@HillaryClinton Where's your basic decency and words for the 4 dead marines?

@HillaryClinton typical politician. Doubt the families of the #Chattanooga Marines share your sentiments.

Reminder, James Wood noticed a similar Ramadan message yesterday from the official White House Twitter account:
Here’s Woods’ tweet again:
Immediately after the assassination of four disarmed Marines… https://t.co/0veqY9M390
