Trump goes on Twitter tirade day Tim Kaine accepts VP nomination

The newly minted GOP nominee fired off consecutive tweets on Saturday, attacking Democratic party officials for mocking Bernie Sanders “heritage” within minutes of calling Elizabeth Warren “Pocahontas,” in reference to her Native American background.


Trump took to social media to chime in about the recent WikiLeaks release of nearly 20,000 emails belonging to Democratic National Committee officials.


The hacked emails revealed that DNC leadership considered using Bernie Sanders’ Judaism and atheism to do harm to his presidential primary campaign.


“Leaked e-mails (sic) of DNC show plans to destroy Bernie Sanders. Mock his heritage and much more. On-line (sic, again) from Wikileakes (sic, yet again), reall vicious. RIGGED,” Trump tweeted.


The real estate magnated had attacked Elizabeth Warren just minutes before, with a racist tweet referencing her Native American background.


“Pocahontas wanted V.P. slot so badly but wasn’t chosen because she has done nothing in the Senate. Also, Crooked Hillary hates her!”


Trump fired off the wildly contradictory tweets the day after Clinton officially nominated Virginia senator Tim Kaine as her running mate, a safe choice met with a lukewarm response from progressives.


The GOP nominee has attempted to use the Kaine pick in attempt to lure Sanders supporters away from Clinton.


“Tim Kaine is, and always has been, owned by the banks. Bernie supporters are outraged, was their last choice. Bernie fought for nothing!” Trump tweeted.


The Sanders campaign shut down Trump’s attempts at convert their supporters, calling the GOP nominee’s political rhetoric full of “bigotry and divisiveness.”


Kaine made his first public address as Clinton’s V.P. pick on Saturday and took the opportunity to attack Trump.


"Hillary Clinton is the exact opposite of Donald Trump. She doesn't insult people. She listens to them," Kaine said at a speech Saturday in Florida, where he officially accepted the V.P nomination.


The Democratic National Convention begins in Philadelphia next week.
