Freedom of speech. I can refer to the US with a lower case if I want too.

Yeah, nothing wrong with having it, but telling others they're wrong not for capitalizing a general noun - especially when that's coming from the president, who should have bigger matters to worry about - is kinda stupid.

He didn't though. The tweet literally says "when talking about the USA, I will always capitalize Country". TC used a fake title as click bait.

"Country" is a common noun. You wouldn't capitalize "girl" or "person" either, even when they refer to a proper noun like "Susan" or "Mike"

Ah, if all he's saying is "that's what I'm gonna do", then there's no problem here.

Literally less than 24 hours prior to this he did, in fact, use the small c in country, a fact which should surprise absolutely no one:
