There are always heroes and villains in President Donald Trump’s weekend tweetstorms. Today was no different, as the President praised his friends and once again attacked his foes.

Hackers cracked London’s Metropolitan Police Friday night, publishing a series of strange messages. One in particular caught Trump’s eye when it asked: “what you gonna do phone the police?”
The messages have since been deleted, but users saved them via screenshots.
Trump quoted a tweet from controversial British broadcaster Katie Hopkins that included one such screenshot, adding that “With the incompetent Mayor of London, you will never have safe streets!”
As for heroes, the Commander-in-Tweet saluted the Apollo 11 astronauts, celebrating the moon landing’s 50th anniversary, and talked up his efforts on the economy and the push on rapper A$AP Rocky, who is jailed in Sweden on assault charges. Trump also found time to clarify his ever-shifting meanings on his “go back” tweets.
We will update as more roll in today. The tweetstorm so far:
Economic numbers reach an all time high, the best in our Country’s history. Great to be a part of something so good for so many!

Just had a very good call with @SwedishPM Stefan Löfven who assured me that American citizen A$AP Rocky will be treated fairly. Likewise, I assured him that A$AP was not a flight risk and offered to personally vouch for his bail, or an alternative….

As you can see, I did nothing to lead people on, nor was I particularly happy with their chant. Just a very big and patriotic crowd. They love the USA! https://t.co/6IVKEffNnq
