The President of the United States Just Gave a Shoutout to Diamond and Silk on Twitter


by Tamar Auber | Sep 8th, 2018, 8:24 pm

It seems President Donald Trump thinks at least two Americans are busy making America great again.

On Saturday night, the President of the United States praised the vlogging duo on Twitter.




In addition to frequently appearing on Fox News’ Watters’ World to chime in with their pro-Trump, anti-Maxine Waters point of view, the pair has appeared at Trump events.

They also testified in front of Congress where they insisted “Facebook censored our tweets.”

It is not exactly clear why Trump was so pleased with them Saturday night, however, shortly after Trump’s tweet the pair appeared on Watters’ World where they talked up Trumpian talking points and bashed favorite trump target, Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

When I think "President of the United States" I don't think Trump.

when they look in the mirror. It has to be self-loathing, right? There is so much pain in our world.

Some people will sell their souls for notoriety - good or bad.
