The tweet was NOT fine, it's merely not the worst thing that Trump does on any given day; you're still contributing to normalizing his manner of self aggrandizing by making shit up

Like, he didn't give any SOURCES to back up the idea that blacks are better off now than they were under the last year of Obama's presidency, he's just saying it - and even if he did give sources, it's obvious what the real thrust of the message is ("I'm great and Obama sucks")

there is no positive message here, just some bullshit meant to puff himself up, and it's not normal or fine

Like look at what you're saying. Re-read it and see if it makes sense.
"He didn't give sources here!" is followed up with "it wouldn't matter anyway!"

A literal positive message is replaced with "there's no positive message" because he's a braggart.

This means that anything he says, as long as he brags, will never be good to you. Always bad. That even if he backs it up with proper sources it wouldn't matter because he brags. You're saying, in no uncertain terms, that as long as that character exists he will never be good and will only be bad, regardless of the content. At that point there's no argument to be had, just dogmatic world view.

So what if he brags a lot. Xp's approach was by far a better one - attacking the content instead of the character. The content is what matters. The character is such a losing argument and so common with Trump that it's the basis of what people call Trump derangement syndrome. Argue and beat his position properly because if you don't you're gonna get stuck in a loop for a lot more than just the next 4 years.
