He's always been a disgusting piece of garbage.

Over the past couple of days, Trump’s Twitter account has been a mess to behold. Don’t get me wrong, his social media posts are a dumpster fire at best on a good day. But as this corona crisis continues to put the squeeze on his already dismal chances at reelection, Trump’s worldwide web habits have gone from bad to worse.

But don’t you fret, the rest of the Twitter-sphere is making damn sure they continue to hold him accountable throughout his little social media mental breakdown.

Early this morning, Trump retweeted a video of 53-year-old Mike Tyson doing some boxing and captioned it, “Keep punching Mike!”

In an effort to remind us all that not only is Donald Trump a piece of garbage to the nth degree but that the company he keeps typically is as well, the reporter for CNN’s KFile, Andrew Kaczynski, took this opportunity to point out another time Donald went on the defense for his friend Tyson.

“Remember when Trump defended Mike Tyson by saying Tyson told him that the victim ‘wanted it real bad’?” Kaczynski’s tweet read, captioning screenshots from his various past articles detailing Trump’s defense of his fellow sexual assaulter.

Unsurprisingly, Trump was quick to jump to his pal’s defense, who ultimately was sentenced to 6 years in prison for his crimes and served 3, taking a similar tactic to his own rape and sexual assault allegations, stating that it was simply all the victim’s fault.

“You have a young woman that was in his hotel room late in the evening at her own will,” Trump said at the time. “You have a young woman seen dancing for the beauty contest — dancing with a big smile on her face, looked happy as can be.”

He also reiterated Tyson’s defense that the victim “wanted it real bad.”

Let this serve as your reminder that Donald Trump was trash then, and he’s trash now.
