Donald Trump, as he is wont to do, quickly took to Twitter to slam Hillary Clinton minutes after her campaign released a video of President Obama’s endorsement:
Obama just endorsed Crooked Hillary. He wants four more years of Obama—but nobody else does!

But Clinton’s campaign was also quick in her response, sending a message that could be described as the digital equivalent of an eye-roll. The tweet quickly piled up more than 230,000 retweets.

Clinton’s campaign didn’t get the last word, though. Trump sent a Tweet later Thursday hitting Clinton over the size of her campaign staff and her e-mail scandal.
How long did it take your staff of 823 people to think that up--and where are your 33,000 emails that you deleted? https://t.co/gECLNtQizQ

Clearly, America is set for a contentious presidential election this year.
