President Trump commented on a variety of topics Tuesday morning on Twitter, from tax cuts and healthcare to fake news and terrorism.
Starting off the morning the president retweeted a Fox & Friends segment that ISIS claimed responsibility for a shooting in Melbourne, Australia that killed one person and injured three police officers.

He then announced a meeting with Republican leadership about tax cuts and healthcare.
Big meeting today with Republican leadership concerning Tax Cuts and Healthcare. We are all pushing hard - must get it right!

From there he turned to the “FAKE MSM” who he claimed was trying to get him to stop using the platform to directly reach the American people.
The FAKE MSM is working so hard trying to get me not to use Social Media. They hate that I can get the honest and unfiltered message out.

He also said if he had relied on the mainstream media, he would have never won the 2016 election.
Sorry folks, but if I would have relied on the Fake News of CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, washpost or nytimes, I would have had ZERO chance winning WH

The president also discussed how several Middle Eastern nations have cut ties with Qatar over its support of terrorism.
During my recent trip to the Middle East I stated that there can no longer be funding of Radical Ideology. Leaders pointed to Qatar - look!

Update: Trump continued tweeting into the morning about Qatar.
So good to see the Saudi Arabia visit with the King and 50 countries already paying off. They said they would take a hard line on funding...

...extremism, and all reference was pointing to Qatar. Perhaps this will be the beginning of the end to the horror of terrorism!
