The article puts the Nordstrom attack in context with other things he is doing. It's ONE of the very corrupt things he is doing, there are many examples.
It needs to be rewritten, as the non-Twitter offenses are "below the fold" so to speak which makes it seem as if the author is most concerned about the Tweets.
Professor Mark Smith (not the author of the article) is entitled to his opinion that Trump using his platform as President to bully a private company is "corruption of the highest order," and I agree with him. I think people are mixing up some of Trump's other troubling behavior with corruption. it's not a contest to describe the worst behavior (in terms of impact) but rather to assign legal/ethical definitions to what he is doing.
