President Trump went on Twitter on Tuesday to voice his displeasure with a decision by the city council in St. Louis Park, Minn., population 49,000, to discontinue reciting the Pledge of Allegiance at the outset of its meetings.
“Outrage is growing in the Great State of Minnesota where our Patriots are now having to fight for the right to say the Pledge of Allegiance,” Trump wrote to his nearly 62 million followers. “I will be fighting with you!”
His tweet came about 10 minutes after a segment on Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends” on the controversy in the left-leaning suburb of Minneapolis.
