President Trump on Thanksgiving morning did not help ease the tension in his ongoing public spat with the father of a UCLA basketball player when he responded to a tweet in which a Washington Post opinion writer described how Mr. Trump's treatment of LaVar Ball is a part of a larger trend in how he treats prominent African-Americans.
"New post: Trump's rage-tweets about LaVar Ball are a part of a pattern," Greg Sargent wrote on Twitter Wednesday, along with a link to his opinion piece. "Trump regularly attacks high-profile African Americans to feed his supporters' belief that the system is rigged for minorities."
Twenty hours later, from his club Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, the president responded to Sargent's tweet with a single line, in all caps: "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"
It's unclear if the president's intention was to respond to the tweet. Thirteen minutes later, the president tweeted the same line in a separate tweet. CBS News has reached out to the White House for comment.
