2017 is Watch Tainted Love Onlinealmost done, and it's definitely safe to say that this year President Trump kept up one of his most infamous hallmarks: insulting people on Twitter.
Or, if you're a Trump supporter, he's "just keeping it real u liberal snowflake lol #MAGA."
SEE ALSO: The mystery of Trump's Twitter mentions and where he finds those awful retweetsBesides taking shots at the likes of Meryl Streep, LaVar Ball, and his biggest nemesis, the media, Trump branched out as the Commander-in-Chief and decided to start taking shots at, you know, actual government officials and organizations.
"But this is nothing new!" one might say.
Ah, yes. But, Trump previously spent time spitting venom on his social media platform of choice as either a private citizen or candidate for president. In 2017, he was actually the presidentand, yet, that didn't stop him from lobbing bombs at fellow elected officials and actual full agencies. Hell, he can't even get suspended from Twitter!
He's insulted many people on the air or in print, including the likes of Senator Joe Manchin who was attacked in Trump's winding and bizarre interview with the New York Times.
But being insulted on Twitter by Trump is... something special. So here is a list, with a few days still to go, of the government-related people and institutions the president has insulted, paired with a sampling of Trump's finest Twittering.
Sen. Chuck Schumer & Rep. Nancy Pelosi
This shouldn't be that big of a surprise as Schumer and Pelosi are the leading Democrats in Congress. But it gets pretty weird when you throw in that one time Trump suddenly made nice with them. Oh, and the "Chuck & Nancy" nickname, like Schumer and Pelosi are suddenly the "Sid & Nancy" of Capitol Hill.

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand
Arguably the absolute worst thing Trump said (or at least inferred) in 2017 was aimed at Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, one of the leading women in Washington who, in the midst of the rise of the "#MeToo" movement, call on further investigation into the accusations of sexual harassment and assault made against Trump before the 2016 election.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski
The Republican senator from Alaska was yet another foe to Trump in his efforts to pass his own health care bill.

Sen. John McCain
Remember when Trump insulted McCain's status as a P.O.W. survivor in 2015 during his presidential campaign? Yeah, Trump didn't get any better in 2017, especially when McCain famously thumbs-downed one of Trump's attempt to bring a new health care bill to the country.

Sen. Mitch McConnell
Sure, the pair are all cozy again over the tax reform deal, but McConnell faced Trump's ire after he failed to push through Trump's health care bill.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren
Yes, somehow his "Pocahontas" nickname controversy spilled across 2017, too, and just made things seem more terrible and never-ending.

Sen. Lindsey Graham
Trump and Graham have continued their "on again, off again" relationship from the 2016 campaign.

Sen. Al Franken
Many reacted with disgust when a photo of then-Senator Al Franken showing him groping a woman hit the internet alongside allegations of inappropriate behavior. But Trump, who has faced his own allegations, reacted with a sick sort of glee.

Sen. Richard Blumenthal
Trump has sparred with Blumenthal, a Democrat, throughout 2017, but making fun of Blumenthal's embellishment of military service in Vietnam seems ironic given Trump didn't serve thanks to some bone spurs.

Sen. Jeff Flake
Flake, a Republican Senator from Arizona, famously spoke out against Trump and donated to Democrat Doug Jones's campaign against Roy Moore in Alabama. He did this, though, after he announced his impending retirement from the senate.

Sen. Rand Paul
Paul has been a pretty consistent thorn in Trump's side since the campaign.

Sen. Bob Corker
Like Flake, Corker is a Republican senator who's announced he is not running for re-election and has taken time to criticize Trump. And just like Flake, Corker incurred Trump's wrath and got a nickname "Liddle' Bob Corker." It's worth noting, though, that none of this kept Corker from heaping praise on Trump when the GOP successfully passed their tax reform bill.

Rep. Frederica Wilson
Remember when Trump feuded with the widow of a soldier killed in Niger? Yeah, that happened this year. Rep. Wilson was with the family when Trump made a condolence call to Myeshia Johnson, wife of Sgt. La David Johnson, and claimed that Trump forgot Sgt. Johnson's name. It was a whole thing that was awful and made Trump look terrible. Well, even more terrible than everything else.

Rep. Adam Schiff
Rep. Schiff, a Democrat from California, has been perhaps the loudest opponent of Trump's to beat the drum on accusations of collusion between Russia and Trump's campaign team.

Pretty much just all of Congress
Despite having a majority in both houses, Trump really didn't get nearly as much done as he claims and he certainly did not shy away from letting the world know how displeased he was about it.

Republicans in general
Republicans had a not great year in 2017's off-year elections but before even that Trump was already throwing them under the bus.

The Department of Justice
It's a government institution that is supposed to be independent of Trump and his whims so of coursehe gets mad at it when things don't go his way.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions
For a time in the summer of 2017, it looked like Trump would push Attorney General Jeff Sessions — Trump's longest supporter from the Senate during the 2016 campaign — to quit with a bunch of insults and questioning of Sessions's authority. Sessions held firm, though, and survived the half-assed attempt by Trump to oust him.

The FBI
Not only did Trump take out certain FBI officials, but he also took aim at the entire FBI itself. He even managed to insult then-FBI director James Comey before he fired him. (And he also insulted Comey many times after).

The Postal Service
Proving that he's still got plenty of juice left in him to close out 2017, Trump went after the U.S. Post Office on Friday for some reason (probably as a way to get a barely-disguised shot at Amazon in). The mail deliverers of America are likely not amused.

San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz
As Trump's response to Hurricane Maria floundered, the people and leaders of Puerto Rico grew angry and lashed out, none more so than San Juan Mayor Carmen Cruz who did not hold back in her criticism of Trump. Trump, for his part, played the usually stoic leader who took the criticism in stridepart of a toddler throwing a tantrum.
