After Donald Trump’s campaign rally-style visit to a newly completed Shell plastics factory in western Pennsylvania — an example of exactly the kind of environmentally-harmful energy industry manufacturing that America needs to innovate its way away from to ensure the planet’s eventual survival — the Republican Party decided to send an ill-timed celebratory tweet.

No MAGIC WAND here— just the results of @realDonaldTrump’s pro-growth policies! https://t.co/4IsPhK7HkM

Sent on a day when the financial markets were tanking in the largest rout of the year to date, the tweet became an ironic contradiction— placing the responsibility for the economy squarely at Donald Trump’s feet on a day when he was furiously assigning blame to everyone else he could think of.
No “MAGIC WAND” could save the GOP from the derision of Twitter users who noted the incongruity between financial reality and the Republican talking points.
Seriously who in the hell writes the ridiculous posts? they’re all bull crap

Trump is done anyway but if he sends us into recession he'll have a record breaking defeat.

That aside, you might wanna take a quick look around and hold off a bit on the boasting. The optics aren't great. pic.twitter.com/qDyF2okkg1

Nice try, GOP.
Next time, check the news before you post such blatant masturbatory self-congratulations. You’ll save yourself a heap of embarrassment.
