President Donald Trump launched his tweet-a-thon holiday early Thursday with a reminder of Thanksgiving day telling him it was a "nasty and unpleasant world" before accusing some judges of making the country dangerous.

In a tweet at 6:58 am, on his iPhone from Mar-a-Lago, the president quoted Secretary of State Mike Pompeo about relations between the United States and Saudi Arabia, noting that the sad state of the world applied "in particular" to the Middle East.

Not to mention his decision Wednesday not to let the assassination of Jamal Khashoggi, Washington Post columnist, interfere in US arms sales to Saudi Arabia, Trump pointed out that Pompeo was referring to " a long and historic commitment "with the Saudis, adding that it was" absolutely vital to the national security of America. "

Noting his "100%" agreement with his secretary of state, the president added that "many billions of dollars in purchases are made in the United States, big jobs and oil!"

The tweet seemed to respond to many criticisms, including from key Republican senators, about its minimization – "that's what it is" – the murder of the US-based journalist and the likely involvement of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Three minutes after this opening salvo, Trump was back in the Trump brand in uppercase mode and exclamation points to mark the holiday:

"HAPPY TO THANK YOU ALL!"

While followers of Twitter absorbed greetings for 20 minutes, Trump was again in attack mode, finding his exchange with Supreme Court Justice John Roberts, who blamed the president on Wednesday for referring to an "Obama judge". "to defend the integrity. of all federal judges.

Roberts, of his third branch post, claimed that there were no "Obama judges" or "Trump judges", but rather "an extraordinary group of dedicated judges doing their best to make a right." equal to those who appear before them. "

Trump, for the second day in a row, asked to differ.

"Judge Roberts can say what he wants, but the 9th circuit is a complete disaster," Trump told Twitter. "It's out of control, has a horrible reputation, is overthrown more than any circuit in the country, 79%, & is used to get an almost guaranteed result." Judges must not legislate on security. . "

After leaving his readers unresolved for nine minutes, Trump responded by adding that judges should also not legislate on "security at the border or elsewhere."

"They know nothing about it and make our country dangerous, our great law enforcement professionals must be allowed to do their job! Otherwise, there will be nothing but chaos, chaos, injury and death. We want the Constitution to be such that it is written! "

Trump was probably referring to a California judge's ruling on Monday, which put an end to the administration's attempts to ban migrants who enter the country illegally from seeking asylum.
