Council member is under fire after sending out multiple tweets attacking president donald trump.

The tweets were sent out by city council member nick deboer.

One of the tweets said that he hopes the president dies..

This following the president's diagnosis of covid-19.

He followed that tweet by saying "and i hope it's unpleasent.

And i hope a person with the absurd name hope is responsible."

Mayor john dennis was made aware of the tweets yesterday..

He says while councilman deboer has the right to free speech, like everyone in this country, he understands why people found what he said to be offensive.

When you have that level of disrespect for our commandor and chief it bleads down to those that have served our country i am a former police officer who served our community and it's offensive.

News18 reached out to councilman deboer for a comment but have not yet recieved a response.

The councilman has since deleted his twitter account and tweets can no longer be viewed.
