The following day, on April 3, 2025, Connolly acknowledged the actions of President Biden, by thanking him through a tweet that simply read “Thanks a lot, @POTUS.”
Later, on the same day, Connolly critiqued the previous administration with a succinct statement that encapsulated his view of Trump’s term. He tweeted, “Chaos and carelessness. The Trump presidency in a nutshell.”
