Trump retweets GIF of him hitting Clinton with golf ball

Twitter awoke Sunday morning to find President Donald Trump had retweeted a GIF of himself knocking over former opponent Hillary Clinton with a golf ball.

He posted about talking to the South Korean president, calling Kim Jong Un "Rocket Man", campaigning for a Republican attorney general candidate in MI, and retweeted several pro-Trump Twitter accounts that had shared images of him bringing jobs back to the USA, "making America great again", or attacking The New York Times.

In other messages Trump retweeted a Bloomberg story reporting he may be worth as much as $2 billion to Twitter, and boasted of America's growing military and economic might.

The president's Sunday morning Twitter storm has also included a puzzling tweet about a conversation South Korean President Moon Jae-in in which Trump said he "asked him how Rocket Man is doing".

The original video of Mrs Clinton is from 2011 and does not show a golf ball. In July, he posted a video to his account that showed him punching a physical representation of CNN in the face.

Trump voters draw a stark contrast with Clinton voters in what they watch, eschewing programs that make fun of religious practices or outright attack the administration in the pursuit of a laugh.

"It doesn't help, I think, in terms of his stature".

White House spokeswomen did not respond to a request for comment.

"Retweeting this kind of misogynistic video might be below the standards of even this President", Sherman said.

Referring to Mrs Clinton's past description of some Trump supporters, he later tweeted: "The "deplorables" came back to haunt Hillary".

It's a big week for President Trump.
