Report: Your Mean Tweets Upset Donald Trump on His Special Day – Gizmodo

On Friday, Donald Trump was sworn in as President of the United States, an occasion that most people would celebrate as one of the greatest moments in their lives. Donald Trump, however, reportedly spent the day getting increasingly angryall because of some not-so-nice messages on Twitter.

According to The New York Times, a series of tweets pointing out that Trumps inauguration was not as well attended as Obamas in 2009 caused the President to become increasingly upset, a mood that only lifted with Friday nights festivities. But the pain, it seems, was back Saturday morning, and Trump was filled anew with a sense of injury, according to several Times sources close the President.

Even outside of Trumps inner circle, some of that anger was visible this weekend. On Sunday, for instance, the President used Twitter to complain about demonstrations against him (instead of celebrating his new job), writing, Why didnt these people vote?

Its unclear what tweets, specifically, made Trump mad, but Times correspondent Binyamin Appelbaums thread about inauguration day crowds seems like a likely candidate. By Sunday night, the initial message had been retweeted over 50,000 times, even getting shared by the National Park Services official account.

In the end, that retweet seems to have gotten the NPS banned from Twitter, but if the intent was to make the new President mad, it sure seems like it worked.
