From demanding border wall funding to Christmas wishes for the 'Fake News Media,' here are the 9 most-engaged Trump tweets of 2018
Trump's most engaged tweet of 2018 is one where he wished everyone a Merry Christmas.
Earlier this month, Trump took to Twitter to criticize Democrats for not caving to his demands for a wall across the US-Mexico border.
The Democrats and President Obama gave Iran 150 Billion Dollars and got nothing, but they can’t give 5 Billion Dollars for National Security and a Wall?

I hope everyone, even the Fake News Media, is having a great Christmas! Our Country is doing very well. We are securing our Borders, making great new Trade Deals, and bringing our Troops Back Home. We are finally putting America First. MERRY CHRISTMAS! #MAGA
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 25, 2018As the government shutdown fight loomed because of Trump's demands for a border wall, the president tweeted that he "won an election, said to be one of the greatest of all time," on an "America First" platform. "We fight for the borders of other countries, but we won't fight for the borders of our own!" he wrote.
I won an election, said to be one of the greatest of all time, based on getting out of endless & costly foreign wars & also based on Strong Borders which will keep our Country safe. We fight for the borders of other countries, but we won’t fight for the borders of our own!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 22, 2018On Christmas Eve, Trump complained on Twitter about not having any company. "I am all alone (poor me) in the White House waiting for the Democrats to come back and make a deal on desperately needed Border Security," he tweeted.
I am all alone (poor me) in the White House waiting for the Democrats to come back and make a deal on desperately needed Border Security. At some point the Democrats not wanting to make a deal will cost our Country more money than the Border Wall we are all talking about. Crazy!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 24, 2018Later on Christmas Eve, Trump tweeted about giving "a 115 mile long contract for another large section of the Wall in Texas." He tacked on: "Democrats must end Shutdown and finish funding. Billions of Dollars, & lives, will be saved!"
I am in the Oval Office & just gave out a 115 mile long contract for another large section of the Wall in Texas. We are already building and renovating many miles of Wall, some complete. Democrats must end Shutdown and finish funding. Billions of Dollars, & lives, will be saved!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 24, 2018Earlier in December, Trump took to Twitter after three people died and 11 were wounded following a terror attack at a Christmas market in France. "Another very bad terror attack in France," he tweeted. "We are going to strengthen our borders even more. Chuck and Nancy must give us the votes to get additional Border Security!"
Another very bad terror attack in France. We are going to strengthen our borders even more. Chuck and Nancy must give us the votes to get additional Border Security!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 2018On December 8, Trump criticized the "ridiculous and extremely expensive Paris Agreement" and said he was "way ahead of the curve" when he pulled out of the global climate change deal.
Very sad day & night in Paris. Maybe it’s time to end the ridiculous and extremely expensive Paris Agreement and return money back to the people in the form of lower taxes? The U.S. was way ahead of the curve on that and the only major country where emissions went down last year!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 8, 2018In a video posted to Twitter on December 21, the president said the US is plagued by drugs, gangs, human trafficking, and other issues he believes are being caused by illegal immigration. "The only thing that's going to stop that is great border security," he said.
OUR GREAT COUNTRY MUST HAVE BORDER SECURITY! pic.twitter.com/ZGcYygMf3a
