WASHINGTON (AP) – President Donald Trump took another swing at Hillary Clinton in the latest sign that his campaign fury hasn’t faded, retweeting a mock video that shows him smacking a golf ball that – in the next frame – seemingly strikes her in the back before she stumbles and falls down while boarding a plane.

Trump retweeted the brief video on his official Twitter account early Sunday, which appears to be a doctored version of news footage from 2011 that shows the then-secretary of state falling after climbing the airplane stairs. The re-edited video appears to have superimposed images of a golf ball that is shown hitting Clinton.

The tweet says: “Donald Trump’s amazing golf swing #CrookedHillary.”

A Clinton spokesman declined comment. The White House issued no immediate comment, and Trump aides have said in the past that his tweets “speak for themselves.” The assessment from Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif.: “juvenile.”

Back in July, Trump vented his rage against the media by posting someone else’s doctored anti-CNN video that showed Trump pummeling a man in a business suit – the man’s face obscured by the CNN logo – outside a wrestling ring.
