Let’s be honest. Hillary Clinton understands Twitter about as much as she understands emails.
But her well caffeinated social media team had a moment of glory early this morning.
At 3:20 am, exactly one day after Donald Trump, the master of Twitter, went on a rampage against a former Miss Universe winner, Clinton’s team fired out this tweet:
It’s 3:20am. As good a time as any to tweet about national service. https://t.co/6hRCC16UiV

Then the Clinton team mocked Trump’s twitter style (Horrible!)
There are hundreds of thousands more @AmeriCorps applications than spots. Horrible! Let’s expand it from 75,000 annual members to 250,000.

And again with Trump’s usual all caps GOOD JUDGEMENT!
Too many talented young people pass up on programs like @Peacecorps because of student loans. Let’s use GOOD JUDGMENT & lighten that burden.

The tweets in the middle of the night were the perfect contrast to the bizarre rant that Trump went on a day earlier:
Wow, Crooked Hillary was duped and used by my worst Miss U. Hillary floated her as an “angel” without checking her past, which is terrible!

Using Alicia M in the debate as a paragon of virtue just shows that Crooked Hillary suffers from BAD JUDGEMENT! Hillary was set up by a con.

Did Crooked Hillary help disgusting (check out sex tape and past) Alicia M become a U.S. citizen so she could use her in the debate?

The debate over Alicia Machado has dominated media coverage since Clinton brought her up at Monday’s debate. Most polls late this week show Clinton overwhelmingly won the showdown.
Trump has fumed about Machado all week, resulting in his early Friday morning tweets.
