    Retweeting as a thread: Mr. President, You are right, unlike you, I am always respectful -- especially when I talk to the President of the United States at the request of a U.S. Senator in your party. I try to be respectful even with people I disagree with.

    Mr. Trump. Steve Job’s biological father’s name was Abdulfattah Jandali. He came to the US as a student. He was from Homs, Syria.

    In the 2000 election Al Gore took a bullet for the country. Tonight President Trump put a bullet into the country. Most shameful thing I’ve ever seen.

    again: McConnell needs to lead a delegation of GOP leaders to the White House to tell Trump that he has to resign immediately -- or they will join with Democrats and impeach him. Otherwise, fellow Americans, what you saw today will be normalized.

    President Trump must ask Saudis to give full and credible account of what happened to Jamal Khashoggi inside their Istanbul consulate. And tell us what he knows too.

    On New Year's Eve President-elect Trump actually called some fellow Americans his "enemies." Really sad and troubling.
