Isadora Lilly- Trump whines on Twitter over Spike Lee's Oscar Speech

This past Sunday, director of BlacKkKlansman, Spike Lee, gave a passionate acceptance speech at the Oscars following his win of the title of best adapted screenplay for his film. Lee addressed black history, ancestry, and the upcoming 2020 presidential election, saying, "The 2020 presidential election is around the corner. Let's all mobilize. Let's all be on the right side of history. Make the moral choice between love versus hate. Let's do the right thing! You know I had to get that in there."

Following his speech, Trump took to Twitter yet again to use his time productively and whine about another grown man's speech at the Oscars. Trump wrote: "Be nice if Spike Lee could read his notes, or better yet not have to use notes at all, when doing his racist hit on your President, who has done more for African Americans (Criminal Justice Reform, Lowest Unemployment numbers in History, Tax Cuts, etc.) than almost any other Pres!"

This reminds me of virtually every other time Trump has used social media to imitate propaganda in an attempt to invalidate the opinion of those who contradict him and sway the nation's opinions in favor of himself. I am reminded in particular of an event I recently wrote about where Trump mocked Elizabeth Warren on Twitter, U.S. Senator planning to run for president in the upcoming 2020 election. Trump will do anything to crush his competition and brainwash the nation when it comes to this election. In the words of Lee, "Let's all be on the right side of history."
