Hey, nobody can accuse President Trump of not being able to multitask.
According to Daily Mail reporter David Martosko, the president was meeting with the press corps’s kids at Take Your Child To Work Day events at the White House while his Twitter account was bush slamming Democrats on a potential government shutdown:
The president has spent 15 minutes with our kids. He's also tweeted 6 times simultaneously, apparently pic.twitter.com/n5v5WR4pWy

He’s actually signing autographs in the pic above, not tweeting:

Here are the 6 tweets:
I want to help our miners while the Democrats are blocking their healthcare.

I promise to rebuild our military and secure our border. Democrats want to shut down the government. Politics!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 27, 2017
What's more important? Rebuilding our military – or bailing out insurance companies? Ask the Democrats.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 27, 2017
Democrats jeopardizing the safety of our troops to bail out their donors from insurance companies. It is time to put #AmericaFirst??
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 27, 2017
Democrats used to support border security — now they want illegals to pour through our borders.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 27, 2017
As families prepare for summer vacations in our National Parks – Democrats threaten to close them and shut down the government. Terrible!

Earlier, Sean Spicer gave a special briefing to the children. No word yet if he shouted “fake news!” at them:
