Whoops. It looks like President Donald Trump accidentally re-tweeted a guy who called him a fascist:
A better shot of Trump retweeting @MikeHolden42, who called him a fascist. ???
WTF, Trump. pic.twitter.com/SpkGFMxdSq— Holly Figueroa O'Reilly (@AynRandPaulRyan) August 15, 2017
@MikeHolden42 was responding to an earlier tweet from “Fox & Friends” on a possible Trump pardon for ex-Sheriff Joe Arpaio who was found guilty in July of criminal contempt for refusing to obey a judge’s order:
He's a fascist, so not unusual.

Trump deleted a second retweet from user @SLandinSoCal who posted an image of a CNN reporter getting smashed by the Trump Train:
I can't believe this is an image the president is promoting. pic.twitter.com/XLWG0h59Zr

The cartoon is old, but people questioned its message in the wake of Charlottesville:

Trump just re-tweeted this image, of a CNN journalist being killed, run over by a train 3 days after a woman was killed, run over by a car. pic.twitter.com/TZ09OafrXF

Earlier Trump retweeted #Pizzagate conspiracist Jack Posobiec:

The Posobiec one wasn’t deleted, however:
“Sir, this week we should project a sense of national unity.”
“Hold on. First I need to retweet Posobiec plus CNN getting hit by a train.”— Allahpundit (@allahpundit) August 15, 2017
