Donald Trump woke up Friday morning in his non-hotel room in Hamburg, Germany, and tweeted the absurd claim that John Podesta and the DNC emails were the talk of the G20 leaders. Podesta interrupted a cross-country road trip to tweet a response giving the idea as much credence as it deserves:
Pulled in for a pit stop in E. Fairmont W. VA. to see that our whack job POTUS @realDonaldTrump is tweeting about me at the G20.
Get a grip man, the Russians committed a crime when they stole my emails to help get you elected President.
Maybe you might try to find a way to mention that to President Putin
BTW, I had nothing to do with the DNC
God only knows what you’ll be raving about on twitter by the time we get to Utah.
Dude, get your head in the game. You’re representing the US at the G20.
Podesta presumably isn’t holding his breath for Trump to confront Putin over the DNC hacking or anything else related to Russia’s efforts to elect Trump. But he was optimistic in one respect: Trump’s almost certain to be raving on Twitter well before Podesta gets to Utah.
