Tweets Of The Day -- Hacks Come To Trump's Aid

Donald "Weather Balloon" Trump, still not letting it go:

Trump doctored a weather chart and ordered a rear admiral to release a statement backing up his falsehoods.

The NOAA also jumped to Trump's defense, and the White House won't say if they engineered it.

By my count, something like this has happened at least 7 times.

Did NOAA jump to his defense? Or did a Trump political appointee hijack the NOAA apparatus in his defense? https://t.co/lr06UBnffM
