‘Shut the f*ck up and #resign’: Olbermann blasts Trump anti-recount tweetstorm with one of his own
While Trump surrogates flooded the cable shows Sunday morning trashing the idea of recounts in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan, the president-elect was busy on Twitter complaining about them in a 8-tweet outburst that predictably concluded: “Sad!”
Internet users were all over the newly elected Trump for relying on Twitter to speak to the country — but none quite as harshly as Trump critic Keith Olbermann who bluntly told the president-elect to “Shut the f*ck up,” while pushing the hashtag #resign.
See below in the order Olbermann tweeted:
What, @realDonaldTrump, was that bullshit from you this week about everybody uniting? #MinorityVotePresident #GoEffYourself #Resist pic.twitter.com/Jh0QemlKIJ

One of your high level advisors, @realDonaldTrump – like Fabio – needs to remind you that you were never asked to abstain from a recount pic.twitter.com/0c3bgprzi4

And look in a mirror, @realDonaldTrump, and let your eight chins break it to you: you're blowing this. You've erased your dignity #GetOutNow pic.twitter.com/drKUYxDtRE

Also, @realDonaldTrump, get rid of this Dolores Umbridge of DC, Conway. She's doing nearly as much damage to you as your own tweets are https://t.co/oIWZFr8OkD

Others weighed in on Trump’s tweeting frenzy:
Trump is melting down again on Twitter over the recount with 9 tweets in 12 hours. Why so upset, Donald? There's nothing amiss so who cares?

Once again, Trump’s Twitter rant (on the recounts this time) are a big distraction from stories like this one https://t.co/aiXWAHLbsc

We found Trump's Achilles heel. He's in a meltdown on Twitter over the election recount. His biggest fear is being illegitimate. Use it.

Deeply worrisome that Trump Team spends so much time on twitter fighting, considering they have a country to run in 53 days. cc: @Reince

With the US presidency in the bag, Donald Trump is now setting his sights on beating Phil Fish's record for most Twitter meltdowns

Trump, take serious guidance from Pres Obama on being tough & graceful in the face of opposition (like birtherism). 'Cause you ain't got it. https://t.co/AchqVmXIMz
