'This is not going to help': MS NOW host dissects oddities in Trump's 60-post social spree

MS NOW's Jonathan Lemire struggled to make sense of President Donald Trump's latest weekend social media posting spree.

The 79-year-old president posted dozens of times across more than 12 hours Saturday, including a lengthy tirade against a federal judge and numerous AI-generated memes celebrating himself in fantastical scenarios, and the "Morning Joe" host attempted to describe the posts to viewers.

"Right now, wewant to turn to President Trump,who spent most of his Saturdayposting on his Truth Socialplatform," Lemire said. "Again, thepresident's first post at 11:50 a.m. was a more than 700-wordrant about a federal judge whoon Friday ruled that the Kennedy Center must remove Trump's name from the building. Over the next 14 hours, Trumpposted more than 60 times,finally ending at just after 1 a.m. Sunday morning."

"His socialmedia spree included politicalmemes attacking his perceivedpolitical rivals, memes about crime under his administration compared to former President Biden, multiple AI-generatedpictures, including twoseparate posts of Trump on Mount Rushmore and at leastthree posts with George Washington, one of which wasthe two men on horses near a Trump-branded NASCAR vehiclewith the Washington Monumentand the White House in thebackground, and, for goodmeasure, a space shuttle flyingover them," Lemire added. "You know, this is not going to help theaccusations that President Trump is focused solely onhimself and his own priorities."

The posts offer a window into the president's thinking, agreed co-host Katty Kay, and she said the view wasn't particularly appealing.

"It's pretty clear where the president's head is at at the moment," she said. "He's had this long-running war with Iran, long by his standards, not long, of course, by international standards, that is not going well. He's deeply frustrated by that. When he hits a roadblock in the pet things that he is really focused on, and that he feels a part of his legacy, like the Kennedy Center then and like the reflecting pool, then he gets peeved, and when he gets peeved, he reaches for his phone, and no matter how many people around him say it would be better to take the president's phone away from him during the course of particularly weekend nights, he doesn't want to do that."
