President Trump on Friday held up a sign from a person showing support for the president’s avid Twitter habits after arriving in Florida for the holiday weekend.

“Keep on tweeting!” read a sign that Trump held up after taking it from one of the supporters who greeted him in Palm Beach on Friday afternoon. Video captured by ABC News shows Trump holding the sign and displaying it to the crowd of onlookers.

Trump often uses his Twitter account to make policy announcements or feud with his political foes, a habit that has often sparked backlash from his critics.

The president prompted international backlash in November after he retweeted several videos from a far-right anti-Muslim group called Britain First.

The leader of the group, whom Trump retweeted, was arrested for hate crimes in the U.K. and at least one of the videos was revealed to be a hoax.

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders defended the retweets, saying “the threat is real” even if the videos weren’t.

The retweets prompted a condemnation from U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May, who issued a statement through a spokesman calling Trump’s actions “wrong.”

Trump has also exchanged barbs with members of his own party on Twitter, including vocal critics such as Sens. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) and Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.).
