Trump kicks off Independence Day with predawn post about Pee-wee Herman

President Donald Trump celebrated the 250th anniversary of the nation he leads by blasting out insulting memes at about 2 a.m.Trump took to Truth Social at 2:11 a.m. precisely to make sure American citizens knew for certain he thinks Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) looks like Pee-wee Herman.The president returned at 2:19 a.m. to remind the nation he believes Rep. James Talarico (D-TX), currently running for the Senate, looks like MAD Magazine's Alfred E. Neuman.For good measure, the leader of the free world blacked out one of Talarico's front teeth.Ossoff has served a vocal critic of Trump in recent weeks as he runs against the president's chosen candidate for Georgia, Rep. Mike Collins.When Trump dubbed Ossoff "Dumocrat Senator, Os(jerk!)off" last month, Ossoff was ready with a retort, focused on the conflict in Iran."The president is humiliated globally by this failed war," said Ossoff. "He’s an increasingly unstable lame duck and a national disgrace.”While Trump may enjoy filling his mornings sharing memes on social media, there is one thing he typically does not do, according to a recent analysis.Trump, 80, made just three public appearances in Washington before 11 a.m. in all of June, according to the Daily Beast.The Daily Beast's review noted his public events were more often slated to take place in the afternoon or later and dubbed his schedule “shockingly lazy."
