Delusional Trump Whines that Americans are ‘Angry at Republicans, But They’re Not Angry At Me’

Posted by on August 7, 2026 at 3:01 pm. 0 Comments :

It is becoming immensely more challenging every day for Donald Trump and his propaganda factory to make up new excuses for the rapidly escalating animosity that is felt by the American people for him and his MAGA cult. And with the midterm elections approaching, Trump’s political descent will leave him flapping pitifully in his Deflecting Pool for the next two years as the lamest of ducks.

King Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

Trump seems to have no awareness of the severity of his situation. He refuses to modify his behaviors or his campaign strategies that are alienating voters. To the contrary, he is tripling down on policies that ignore the real concerns of the American people, in favor of his reckless war mongering, his ego-fluffing projects, his illegal self-enrichment, and his oblivious lies about how universally beloved he is.

SEE THIS: TRUMP: ‘My REAL Polling Numbers Are the Best They Have Ever Been’ – OK Grandpa

Needless to say, the “REAL Polling Numbers” that Trump is referencing exist only in his cartoon brain. He somehow continues to believe that the world adores him and any bad feelings are attributable to someone or something else. That delusion was reiterated on Friday during an interview with Jake Sherman of Punchbowl News (video below), wherein Trump whined that…

“The question is – and they’re asking this question, and I’ve had some great polls recently, real polls, but they’re great polls – If I don’t run will those people go out and vote? And that’s the one thing I can’t tell. I’m gonna ask them to. But I’m just watching guys like you, and you’re very talented people. The question is will they vote? Cause a lot of them are very angry, at Republicans to be honest with you. They’re angry at Republicans, but they’re not angry at me.”

Let’s set aside Trump’s unconstitutional implication that he could run for president again. He can’t. And if he were to try he would be laughed out of the court and the country. The crux of his commentary is his preposterous belief that the American people are only angry with his MAGA Republicans, but certainly not him.

Of course, today’s Republican Party has devolved to such an extent that they are too cowardly and weak to have any opinions of their own. They are wholly controlled by Trump, and they unwaveringly support everything he does and says. So how could people be angry at Republicans without also being angry at the sole source of everything that they do and say?

What’s more, Trump’s total rejection of reality was also confirmed in new polling reported by CNN’s Chief Data Analyst, Harry Enten. He noted that a key group of Trump’s MAGA supporters are ditching the MAGA cult movement.

“The MAGA movement was built among the working class, non-college Americans…Back on October of 2024, on the plus side of the ledger, positive, plus six points…Look at this movement now. Minus 22 points. That is a shift of 28 points…They are shifting away and saying ‘We don’t like MAGA anymore.’ […]

“Maybe they’ve soured on MAGA but they haven’t soured on Trump? Aint the truth…In the 2024 election he won them by 13 points…But look at this now. Minus 19 points…This is a 32 point shift away from the president…’Adios, goodbye Mr. President, We don’t like you anymore.'”

Enten also pointed out that Democrats in Congress have gained significantly over Republicans with this group. So the American people are sick and tired of MAGA, of Republicans, and most of all, of Trump. And no matter how much he tries to pretend that he is the venerated messiah of MAGA-tism, he remains a pathetic loser desperately clinging to a psychotic illusion of idolatry.

Does JD Vance Want to Imprison Trump for ‘Enriching Himself Off of the American Taxpayer’?

Posted by on August 6, 2026 at 3:05 pm. 2 Comments :

When Donald Trump reoccupied the White House last year, he went to great pains to avoid what he considered mistakes during his first occupation. For the most part that meant surrounding himself with drooling sycophants that he could trust to be loyal to him only, rather than to the law or the Constitution or the American people.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump, JD Vance, Dr. Evil, Mini-Me

Trump did a pretty good job of that by appointing the most unqualified, incompetent clowns – many recruited directly from Fox News – to his Cabinet and other senior administration posts that he could rest assured would never do anything without his approval, and who would never contradict or challenge him. At least not intentionally. The result is a confederacy of devoted MAGA-tists who worship Dear Leader…

SEE THIS: Trump Gathers His Cabinet Members to Conduct Another Festival of Feckless Trump-Fluffing

While Trump’s flunkies perform down to their expectations most of the time, the instances of unintentional departures from the regime dogma are serious and increasingly frequent. They include U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro contradicting Trump’s lies about vandals doing damage to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, and Secretary of War Crimes Pete Hegseth leaking the depletion of U.S. munitions stockpiles.

However, the most serious propaganda breakdown may have just been perpetrated by Trump’s Vice-President, JD Vance. A few weeks ago Trump made Vance his “Fraud Czar,” presumably to crack down on anyone who tried to move in on mob boss Trump’s territory.

On Thursday, Vance sat down for a friendly interview with Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, during which he came out in favor of prosecuting and imprisoning people who commit fraud at the expense of American taxpayers. He said that…

“I don’t care where you’re from. I don’t care what your name is. If you’re committing fraud against the American people, all of us in public leadership should be trying to stop it and try to throw you in prison for enriching yourself off of the American taxpayer.”

Does that sound like anyone you know? For the record, Donald Trump has been found liable for fraud in civil court for ripping off students of his phony university. He has had his charity shut down for fraudulent misuse of funds. And he was convicted on 34 felony charges of fraud related to his business dealings and association with porn star, Stormy Daniels.

These and numerous other scams were all designed to illegally enriched himself. And now his Fraud Czar is declaring that such behavior will be punished with prosecution and imprisonment. We’ll see. But don’t hold your breath. To date the only actions taken by Trump with regard to fraudsters has been to pardon them and to relieve them of paying any restitution to their victims. The only “victim” that he believes deserves restitution is himself.

Trump Hates America: He is Now Calling Blue States and Cities a ‘Threat to the Country’

Posted by on August 5, 2026 at 4:25 pm. 1 Comments :

The animosity that Donald Trump has regularly shown toward anyone who disagrees with him has lately festered into a seething hatred and declared enmity. His innate bitterness and sociopathy has blossomed into unbridled, venomous hostility.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump

Throughout his time in public life Trump has displayed disturbing symptoms of antisocial psychoses such as malignant narcissism. He simply cannot tolerate anyone who fails to be sufficiently worshipful. Those personality disorders fuel his loathing of political opponents that goes way beyond the ordinary practice of politics. And they drive him to preposterous extremes.

SEE THIS: Putin Prodigy Trump Calls to Criminalize Democratic Socialism and Deport Its Leaders

Now Trump’s bizarre behaviors have escalated to their natural ends. He has surpassed the common bounds of campaign conflict to a new depth of depravity that amounts to a virtual declaration of war against his fellow Americans. In yet another Fox News interview, lashed out at his Democratic foes saying that…

“The thing they should look at is blue states and blue cities. Cities run by Democrats. Because that’s really the threat to the country. Because they’re a disaster.”

Here is Trump, the alleged president of the UNITED States, calling some of those states the real "threat to the country."The states Trump is talking about (California, New York, Illinois, etc.) are keeping the red states – and the whole country – afloat econimically.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-08-05T10:22:09.099Z

So Trump is no longer satisfied with merely insulting his political foes with infantile nicknames and lying about their records as he usually does. Nope. Now the alleged president of the “United” States of America is accusing many of those states of being a “threat to the country.”

Hopefully Trump won’t act out his deranged ideas by launching military attacks on those he considers to be threats, such as Venezuela and Iran. Although he actually has done that already by ordering his StormTrumpers into blue cities like Minneapolis, where they murdered American citizens.

Trump’s patriotism is severely handicapped by his hatred. It’s notable that the blue states Trump is talking about – California, New York, Illinois, etc. – are the ones that are keeping the red states – and the whole country – afloat economically. Nevertheless, he despises them and the Americans who reside there.

Trump made that abundantly clear on Tuesday in remarks to reporters in the Oval Office. He prefaced his latest hate-mongering harangue by lying that states and cities with Democratic leadership have “vicious, violent crime,” while those run by Republicans “have very little crime.” The opposite is true. Then he elaborated saying that…

“Look at the blue cities…What do they have in common? They’re all dirty. They’re filthy dirty. Their streets are dirty. Their streets smell. Their storefronts are broken. Their trees are all gross. Everything about the place is dirty…It’s really all of them.”

TRUMP: "You go into these cities that are blue… they’re filthy and disgusting."What an anti-American a-hole. Trump is trash-talking cities like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, etc. The biggest, most beautiful cities in America. The most visited vacation destinations.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-08-04T10:19:30.077Z

Remember, Trump is talking about some of the most beautiful cities in the country. They are the cities where the majority of the American people live. They are the cities that produce most of the nation’s wealth. They are the cities that are the most frequent destinations of both domestic and international visitors. And Trump is denigrating them in what appears to be an attempt to destroy them.

Perhaps Trump would like to banish the blue states from the union and be left with his red state dystopia. If he did he would learn the hard way that his red states need the blue states more than the blue states needs them. Which is why Trump doesn’t really want to get rid of the blue states. He just wants to rule over them like slave colonies to provide for his Red States of America.

Trump Goes Full Democratic Socialist Condemning Greedy Oil Companies for Gouging Consumers

Posted by on August 4, 2026 at 2:38 pm. 0 Comments :

As the midterm elections in November draw nearer, the desperation of Donald Trump and the Republican Party is spreading faster than an outbreak of measles at RFK Jr’s kiddie pool party. Every recent poll shows that Democrats are likely to come away with a majority in the House of Representatives, and have a good chance of doing the same in the Senate.

Donald Trump with Earth, Globe, warming, climate change

Ordinarily a party that is running as far behind as the GOP would reconsider their campaign strategy in order to appeal to a broader base of the electorate. But in this case the MAGA Republicans are so beholden to Trump and his unique brand of derangement that they are falling in line with his plan to alienate as many voters as possible by ignoring their needs and focusing on endless wars, vanity projects, and enriching himself. And Trump seems to think that his plan is working.

SEE THIS: Delusional Trump: ‘My REAL Polling Numbers Are the Best They Have Ever Been’ – OK Grandpa

However, in a peculiar departure from his routine, Trump appears to have adopted some of the platform of the Democratic Party, and more specifically, the policies of progressive Democratic Socialists. In response to a question about the record profits recently reported by Exxon and Chevron, Trump replied that…

“They’re making too much money, based on a shortage, They’re making too much money. I don’t like it. And I should be the last one to say it because I’m a big free enterprise guy, nobody bigger. And you’re gonna see oil, when we’re finished with Iran, you’re gonna see the prices drop through the floor.

“But they made too much money. Chevron, too much money. ExxonMobil, too much. When you look at one company, where they made 12 times what they made the year before, they ought to give some of that back to the public. And they better cut the retail price, the consumer price.”

Trump on oil companies gouging consumers:"They're making too much money…and they ought to give some of that back to the public…and they better cut the retail price."When Democrats say this Fox News and MAGA – and Trump – scream "COMMUNISTS!"

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-08-04T10:05:28.615Z

Trump is right. The oil companies are reporting record profits. And it isn’t just because the price of oil has gone up due to Trump’s illegal war against Iran. If prices were only rising due to supply issues, their profits would would remain stable. But they are raising their prices so much that they are generating higher profits, even while people are driving less because they can’t afford the gas. As reported by USA Today…

“ExxonMobil and Chevron last week reported massive second-quarter profits as a result of the war. ExxonMobil said it made $14.5 billion between April 1 through June, up from $7.1 billion in profits during the same time period in 2025. Chevron posted $12 billion in second-quarter profits, a 380% increase over the company’s $2.5 billion in earnings during the second quarter of 2025.”

Accusing corporations of gouging consumers, and calling on them to lower their prices to generate reasonable levels of profit, has long been the policy of Democrats. And whenever Democrats proposed it, Republicans – including Trump – would condemn them as socialists and/or communists. But now that Democratic Socialists are understandably appealing to an ever greater proportion of the electorate, Trump is trying to grab some of that glory for himself.

It’s not going to work. Trump and his MAGA-tist Party have been lambasting Democrats over this for far too long. They can’t just slither in and pretend that they have been for this all along. And by trying to fool the American people this way, he is just letting them know how stupid he thinks they are.

Although Trump himself has been leaning toward some of the worst aspects communism for months. He is the one who has been implementing communist-like control over the “means of production” by taking a role in corporate mergers, demanding multimillion dollar payments from corporations seeking government favors, and forcing corporations to sell parts of the businesses to the government. His mentor, Vladimir Putin, must be so proud.

Trump and company are still, however, opposed to all of the best parts of the Democratic Socialist agenda, which are broadly popular and in the mainstream of American politics. They including things like Social Security, interstate highways, public libraries, Obamacare, and more. And if you need further proof of the Trumpian hypocrisy, check out his comment today on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, wherein he is advocating on behalf of oil companies and the fossil fuel industry so that they can gouge even more profits from struggling Americans…

Trump posted an insane, 27 multi-threaded post on Truth Social of a 7 month old op-ed with the 20 "best" actions he took in 2025.They were all either lies or never actually happened. But this one was particularly ridiculous. He's bragging about things he did to destroy the environment.

Delusional Trump: ‘My REAL Polling Numbers Are the Best They Have Ever Been’ – OK Grandpa

Posted by on August 3, 2026 at 3:11 pm. 0 Comments :

Having a leader who is ignorant and negligent and obsessed with power and greed is bad enough.
But with Donald Trump the United States is also cursed with a White House occupier who lies pathologically and is oblivious to reality.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump Messiah

The moral depravity and mental impairments of Trump put America at risk. He is incapable of any behavior that recognizes the needs of others. To the contrary, his perception of himself is as an infallible figure of perfection that borders on the messianic. He has literally said so…

SEE THIS: Wannabe Messiah Trump Claims to Be Standing Up to the ‘Demonic Forces’ Destroying Our Country

Among the symptoms of Trump’s illness is his invention of events that clearly have never happened. They include his insistence that he is winning his reckless and illegal war against Iran; his repetition that he has produced an economic “golden age”; and his hallucinations of Marxists around every corner, including those who are vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflection Pool.

This weekend Trump was busying himself with the critical presidential duty of rage-posting on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. Among the dishonest proclamations and loony self-exalting memes, Trump dropped a comment that was an especially disturbing example of his cognitive collapse. He ranted in part that…

“My REAL Polling Numbers, not those made up by the Fake News Media, are the best they have ever been. […] Don’t believe the Radical Left’s Fake Poll numbers. They are Crooked and Corrupt, just like the Country Destroying Dumocrats are Crooked and Corrupt.”

Trump didn’t bother to provide a link to any of the “REAL Polling Numbers” that are allegedly “the best they have ever been.” But in his defense, that’s only because they don’t exist. A quick glance at the RealClear Politics listing of recent polls reveals the reality that Trump is so far removed from.

It’s notable that every single one of those polls found that a substantial majority of Americans (up to 66%) disapprove of Trump. The average of the polls have Trump more than 19 points underwater. And that’s even with the inclusion of several polls produced by blatantly right-wing operations. Apparently Trump is lumping Fox News, Rasmussen, etc., in with all of the “Radical Left, Crooked and Corrupt, Country Destroying, Fake News, Dumocrats.”

Trump demands that these polls are not to be believed. But he doesn’t offer up any others that he vouches for as believable. Although he does provide some pretty good reasons for his high disapproval in the list of things that that he claims to have accomplished. He cites as his “successes” his work on taxes, jobs, immigration, Iran, and “respect throughout the world.” None of which has been remotely successful. And the American people know that. In fact, Trump is polling negatively on every one of those individual issues.

This isn’t the first time that Trump has claimed to have his highest polling ever. Last month he said the same thing, boasting about having 65% approval. Once again, he didn’t link to any such poll. The poll that he did link to had him at 50%, and even that was by a notoriously biased conservative pollster.

MORE HERE: Delusional Donald: Does Trump Really Believe He’s Ultra Popular with Record High Approval Ratings?

You have to wonder who these comments are aimed at. Does anyone outside of his MAGA cult believe them? Although there is an interpretation of Trump’s comment that is actually accurate. He says that his polling numbers “are the best they have ever been.” So if by “best” he means highest, and by “numbers” he means disapproval, he’s right. These are currently the highest disapproval numbers he’s ever had. But get too attached. It’s very likely that new highs will be released next week.

Lara Trump Brags on Fox News that Donald Trump Got Gas Prices Down – By Screwing Up on COVID!

Posted by on August 2, 2026 at 3:03 pm. 0 Comments :

The mission of Fox News from its inception was to advance the the right-wing, conservative agenda, and to elect Republicans. Thirty years later their commitment to those goals has only grown stronger and they have worked fervently to redouble their efforts on behalf of the GOP’s current kingpin, Donald Trump.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump Fox News

One of the best indicators of how devoted Fox News is to an ideology is the presence of Trump’s Daughter-in-Lawlessness, Lara Trump, as a host of her own show on the network. For an alleged news enterprise that once brandished the slogan “fair and balanced,” it’s a steep fall from the already low bar they had set for themselves. They even sunk so low as to have Lara interview her Sugardaddy-in-Law on her show.

SEE THIS: Trump Humiliates Himself in a Hysterical Interview By His Daughter-in-Law Lara Trump on Fox News

On Saturday Lara took on the additional duty of guest-hosting Fox and Friends. During that episode she openly admitted that she and Fox News are not independent journalists, but instead are partisan representatives of the Republican Party. She said that…

“As Republicans, we need to do a better job of reminding the American people what this president and what this party has done for the economy. Don’t forget that under Joe Biden we saw an over 9% inflation, it’s at 3.5% right now. You look at the energy policy of this president. That has been monumental for bringing costs down. Obviously you see gas prices aren’t perfect right now, but don’t forget, $1.77 a gallon during Trump one. We know he knows how to get us there. We have the higher gas prices right now because of Iran.”

There you have it. Lara spoke “As Republicans, we need to do a better job…” Then she enumerated what she believed to be the failures of President Biden and the successes of the GOP under the guidance of Papa Trump. And true to form, she brazenly lied. For instance, while inflation did rise to 9.1% during Biden’s term, he brought it down to 3% by the time he handed off the office to Trump. Since then, Trump has presided over an increase in inflation to 3.5%.

However, perhaps the worst part of Lara’s commentary was her boasting about Trump’s alleged ability to bring gas prices down. She offered as proof the fact that during his first term gas prices declined to $1.77 per gallon. So according to Lara, “he knows how to get us there.”

Which is great to know. All he has to do now is horribly mismanage another pandemic like COVID and gas will once again be affordable. Because that was what happened during Trump’s first term that resulted in $1.77/gallon gas. And it only cost a few more than a million American lives.

In Trump’s second term he appears to be heading the opposite direction. Instead of killing a million Americans in order to bring gas prices down, he’s killing Iranians in order to get gas prices up. If there is some logic in that strategy, it is lost on American consumers, who are also being burdened with higher prices for everything else due to his idiotic and inflationary tariffs.

Lara went on in her commentary to further align herself and her Fox News colleagues with the Republican Party. She added that…

“I think we need to do a better job of messaging that. Because if you leave it up to the legacy media they’re gonna continue to hammer this president on Iran. A situation that, thank God, he’s tackling because no one else would. But I think that’s something we need to hear more from the RNC and the Republicans on.”

So Lara is shamelessly serving as the de facto communications boss of the Republican Party, and doling out advice that she thinks will help their faltering electoral prospects. And in her opinion, the Party’s problems have nothing to do with their unpopular policies that ignore the welfare of the American people. It’s just a messaging problem. Which she seems to think is the responsibility of the media that spends too much time reporting on trivialities like war.

You can’t entirely blame Lara for this. She’s a mouthpiece for the benefit of her family. But Fox News should be endlessly shamed for hiring her and allowing her to disgorge such self-serving propaganda across the network’s programming day. But then, why would they change now after doing that for thirty years?

Trump Runs His Bus Over Jeanine Pirro for Revealing His Lies About the Botched Reflecting Pool

Posted by on August 1, 2026 at 3:09 pm. 0 Comments :

The salacious saga of Donald Trump and the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool continues to sink ever deeper into fantastical tales of soap operatic twaddle. It’s origins as an ego-fluffing exercise by Trump have expanded into an epic misadventure in madness.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Jeanine Pirro Fox News

So far Trump has wasted more than $14 million dollars on this boondoggle. And who knows where that money went? Clearly it wasn’t into renovating the Reflecting Pool that remains a disastrous example of incompetence. But even worse, it has become a political tool for persecuting people who refuse to align with Trump’s twisted agenda. And his U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia – former Fox News host Jeanine Pirro – has become the human personification of that tool.

SEE THIS: Trump’s US Attorney in DC, Jeanine Pirro, Threatens Journalist for ‘Vandalizing’ Reflecting Pool

In June Pirro announced that she was filing charges against former American Olympian, David Hearn, for allegedly vandalizing the Reflecting Pool. She was adamant that she had an open and shut case saying that “The evidence shows, and we will prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Hearn willfully destroyed property at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.”

It didn’t quite work out that way. This week Pirro did an Olympic-grade flip-flop, filing a motion to dismiss the charges against Hearn. As reported by NBC News…

“The Trump administration has dropped its case against a former Olympic canoeist charged in connection with damage to the Reflecting Pool, acknowledging its allegations against David ‘Davey’ Hearn don’t hold water. […]

“Prosecutors said that after the indictment came down on July 2, the Interior Department provided additional documents to the U.S. attorney’s office ‘indicating that damage to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in June 2026 was the result of flawed installation by the contractor [and] that the damage was the result of a botched installation and not vandalism.'”

Okay. So then everything that Pirro said previously was untrue, and she lied to the Grand Jury that returned the indictment. What’s more, everything that Trump said about it was also untrue. Particularly his insistence that the damage – imaginary 350 foot gashes – was the work of vandals with knives who hate America. Pirro now says that that there is no evidence of any deliberate damage.

But here is where the plot thickens again. After Pirro dropped the charges, Trump posted his disapproval on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. He raged that…

“I disagree 100% with Jeanine Pirro, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, on the Reflecting Pool. I don’t know what she was thinking? To me, it was a pure case of VANDALISM, that included the grass, which had a big 86 47 emblazoned in giant letters on it, and other elements of the surrounding area. There may have been some contractor difficulty, but the major damage was caused by VANDALS!”

So Trump has thrown Pirro under his bus and backed up over her a couple of times. He is throwing his Interior Department under there as well since Pirro blamed them for her incompetence. Meanwhile, Trump is clinging to his prior lies despite having no evidence to support them. Notice also that he is not reaffirming his position because of any new information or proof, but because he says “To me” vandals damaged the Reflecting Pool. So it’s just a feeling that he has. Which for him is enough to prosecute innocent bystanders and rebuke your staff.

[UPDATE: Trump’s Interior Department Secretary, Doug Burgum, has issued a statement calling Pirro a liar and taking Trump’s side, like a good cult devotee. He says that “The evidence is clear, vandals have repeatedly caused damage to the Reflecting Pool.” But, like Trump, he produced no such evidence.

Trump’s post is like wading through a Deflecting Pool, wherein he attempts to shift the subject to a different incident involving the numbers “8647” on a grass field. Furthermore, in a subsequent post Trump tripled down on his allegations saying “Look for yourselves at the VANDALISM that took place at The Reflecting Pool. The material is being cut with a knife or a box cutter, for all to see!” To no one’s surprise, the video he posted didn’t show anyone cutting anything.

You have to wonder how Trump can keep Pirro on as U.S. Attorney in DC. He is undermining her credibility, which was already in short supply. She can hardly be relied upon as a prosecutor in any other cases that her office might file. She ought to be investigated for prosecutorial misconduct. In addition to that, Mr. Hearn is likely considering a lawsuit for malicious prosecution, defamation, and abuse of process.

It’s just like many other cases that Trump’s “Justice” Department pursued that they wound up dropping for lack of evidence or other malfeasance. For instance, the case against former FBI Director James for posting a photo of seashells spelling “8647.” Also, the cases against Senators Mark Kelly and Elissa Slotkin and four members of Congress for reminding military personnel of their duty to decline to follow illegal orders.

Trump has a spotty record of loyalty in cases such as these. At times he will cut someone loose who has embarrassed him or failed to achieve his nefarious goals. At other times he has stuck by a failing staffer who he regards as staunchly devoted to him. Time will tell where Pirro ends up, although neither is a place of honor.

BLAME AMERICA FIRST: Trump Takes Iran’s Side in an Allegation of a Cyberattack in Minnesota

Posted by on July 31, 2026 at 1:37 pm. 2 Comments :

Patriotism has long been a core principle of the Republican Party, at least during election campaigns when they try to portray themselves as unwaveringly devoted to America and its founding philosophies of democracy and liberty, and equality. Too bad that the GOP only wears that mantle of flag-waving allegiance as a campaign costume that they discard as soon as the campaign is over.

Trump baby with Iran map

No one in the Republican realm has been more dishonest with regard to loving their country than Donald Trump. He generously disgorges hollow praise in the form of mushy clichés and drenches his remarks about the nation with fawning flattery that has the stench of scammy evangelical sideshows. In reality, Trump displays a profound aversion for America, it’s laws, and its Constitution.

SEE THIS: Trump Himself Confirms that He is the Most Deviant Lawbreaker in Presidential History

As is often the case, Trump provides the best examples of his treasonous tendencies. On Friday he spoke to reporters during a White House Cabinet meeting. These meetings are never held to work on matters of critical importance to the nation. Instead, they are ceremonial kiss-up rituals where Trump has his flunkies take turns fluffing him. That is, when he isn’t doing it himself.

On this occasion Trump had something to get off his chest. He had heard about a cyberattack on water systems in Minnesota, a blue state whose governor, Tim Walz, Trump has a particular animosity toward. The New York Times reported the news on Thursday saying that…

“Investigators believe a cyberattack this week on dozens of municipal water systems in Minnesota was probably the work of Iranian hackers, according to U.S. and state officials and others familiar with the matter, a potential act of aggression that comes at a precarious moment in the U.S. war against Iran.”

Despite the preliminary assessment by Trump’s own FBI and cybersecurity agency surmising that the attack was by Iran, Trump had other ideas. He told reporters that…

“I just wanna mention that we heard in Minnesota there was a cyberattack and they blame it on Iran. I don’t think so. I blame it on Minnesota because they’re grossly incompetent. There was a cyberattack on 30 water plants. And I would blame it on Minnesota, and the corrupt government of Minnesota. They like to say ‘Oh, it was Iran.’ Iran should be so lucky. Iran’s got bigger problems than worrying about Minnesota.”

As he often does, Trump has chosen to blame America first. He is defending our enemy Iran against these accusations despite the fact that he is at war with them and bombing their civilian infrastructure, which gives them motives to disrupt infrastructure in the U.S. And he is making wholly unsupported accusations against fellow Americans who would only be harming themselves if Trump’s preposterous charges were true.

In Trump’s mind his political foes in Minnesota are more likely to be the culprits of this cyberattack than actual wartime enemies in Iran. That’s how twisted Trump’s thought processes are. And he assigns blame to what he calls the “corrupt government of Minnesota,” without any rational benefit a corrupt government would receive for attacking its own water plants.

What’s more, Trump is absolving Iran in part because messing around with Minnesota’s water plants would be too small an endeavor for Iran. So according to Trump, Iran has “bigger problems than worrying about Minnesota,” but Trump doesn’t? Really? What about the high cost of gas and groceries and housing and healthcare? What about his ICE thugs persecuting migrants and killing citizens? What about his collapsing approval ratings as the midterm election nears. What about Iran?

Trump is doing nothing to resolve any of those problems. But he is taking the heat off of Iran, while simultaneously taking time out to baselessly accuse Minnesota of attacking their own water plants.

Well, at least he’s only taking time away from building his vanity ballroom, and renovating the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and other DC beautification projects, and shouting insults at journalists. Because Trump has bigger problems than worrying about affordability or war. After all, his ego have been hurt.

Trump Plots to Evade Senate Vote for Todd Blanche So He Can Keep His Slush Fund and Immunity

Posted by on July 30, 2026 at 2:42 pm. 0 Comments :

Trump’s approval rating has been spiraling downward for months. This week three reputable national polls have documented this decline. According to these surveys Trump is now wallowing in the low thirties, a depth that is lower than at any time in either of his occupations of the White House.

Donald Trump fear

Among the consequences of Trump’s collapsing reputation is the softening of support from his Republican cohorts in Congress. He is finding it more difficult to get legislation passed as representatives and senators are realizing that they have less to fear from Trump than they do from voters. And Trump appears to be realizing it too.

SEE THIS: Trump FREAKS OUT Over a Democratic Proposal: ‘They Do This, and the Republican Party is DEAD!’

On Thursday Trump was busy doing what he regards as critical presidenty stuff: posting deranged rants on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. Included in his latest batch of bullshittery was a comment that, on the surface, was an affirmation of his support for his acting Attorney General, Todd Blanche. But on closer examination it was a confession of his commitment to corruption. Trump wrote that…

“Todd Blanche is a STAR, and everyone knows it! He has the potential to go down as one of the Greatest Attorney Generals of All Time. However, John Cornyn, of Texas, and Thom Tillis, of North Carolina, both of whom I refused to Endorse, and whose political careers have been ended by my action, are refusing to vote for this Great Nominee. […]

“I have no objection to temporarily withdrawing Todd’s name, if they do not do the right thing, and putting him back after Cornyn and Tillis are out of office.”

If Blanche is a “STAR,” he is a red dwarf that is smaller and dimmer than others. And everyone knows it. More to the point, Trump is very perturbed (his resting emotional state) that a couple of Republican senators are reluctant to rubber stamp his nominee to become Attorney General. It’s true that Trump contributed to their senate careers coming to end. However, it’s also true that Trump was ignorantly blind that losing their support would be a predictable result of sabotaging their reelection.

Trump’s solution to this problem is to threaten to leave Blanche on as “acting” Attorney General until Tillis and Cornyn are out of office. There is some legal ambiguity as to how long Blanche could serve in an acting capacity. However, informed legal analysis suggests that it could be indefinitely.

Nevertheless, there are some problems with Trump’s plot to circumvent the Constitution and keep his personal criminal defense lawyer the head of the “Justice” Department. First of all, both Tillis and Cornyn might very well be replaced by Democrats in the November midterm elections. In North Carolina, former Gov. Roy Cooper is currently way ahead of his GOP opponent for the Tillis seat. In Texas, James Talarico is making an impressively strong bid for Cornyn’s seat.

If the Democrats win those races, and a few more in other states, Trump won’t be able to confirm Blanche, or any other crackpot nominee that Trump puts forward for the remaining two years of his lame duck presidency. And make no mistake about it, Blanche is a bona fide crackpot.

FOR INSTANCE: HUH? Trump’s Acting Attorney General: There’s a Ton of Evidence that the 2020 Election Was Rigged

Trump’s ultimatum is profoundly un-American and blatantly corrupt. All he needs to do to get the votes of Tillis and Cornyn is to have Blanche put in writing a revocation of the “weaponization” slush fund that he (as president) negotiated in a settlement with himself (as head of the Treasury Department/IRS). That fund was implemented to reward the criminals that stormed Congress on January 6, 2021.

By refusing to revoke the settlement, Trump is admitting that he would prefer to withdraw Blanche’s nomination, and have him serve in the sketchy “acting” status indefinitely, rather than have Blanche put in writing the revocation of the Seditionist Reward Scheme that he claims to have abandoned. So apparently, Trump has never intended to abandon the fund, and Blanche knows it.

[UPDATE: The next day Trump told reporters that the fund was dead. But saying it’s dead doesn’t make it dead. He can revive it any time he wants. He won’t put it in writing. Why not? He is literally stalling his own AG confirmation over that. And he still insists that he wants to compensate the criminally seditious rioters.]

Furthermore, Trump is also clinging to the immunity from IRS audits that his self-negotiated settlement also stipulated. That’s an extension of Trump’s broader intentions to evade legal accountability for his criminal acts, which was a primary motivation for his running for reelection.

None of this should surprise anyone who has been paying attention to Trump’s time in office. He has repeatedly demonstrated his aversion to the law and the Constitution. He files lawsuits at every opportunity to violate settled law. He governs by executive orders, then ignores the court rulings that strike them down. And he issues flagrantly unlawful orders covering everything from tariffs, to government terminations, to his reckless fiasco in Iran.

So it’s no wonder that such a president insists on having a partisan Attorney General, who is loyal only to him rather than to the Constitution, to protect him from the consequences of his criminal acts. It’s a plan that has worked to some degree, so far. But after November, Trump may hit a few speed bumps on his road to tyranny.

Donald ‘QUIXOTE’ Trump: Any Time You See Windmills You See a Failing Country

Posted by on July 29, 2026 at 4:09 pm. 1 Comments :

The derangement of Donald Trump is often mocked and ridiculed. But it would be a dangerous mistake to fail to take seriously the harm that his mental impairment can produce.

Donald Trump Climate Change

That harm is evident in Trump’s waging of a reckless and illegal war against Iran, in his inflationary tariffs that burden millions of Americans with higher prices, in his Gestapo-style military invasions of American cities with immigration StormTrumpers, in his attacks on Democracy and the Constitution, particularly the free press, and so much more.

SEE THIS: Herr Trump Threatens to Muzzle the Free Press in His Unhinged Infomercial for Voter Suppression

On Wednesday Trump spoke to a gaggle of reporters in the Oval Office and, as he often does, he wandered off topic to ramble about unrelated pet peeves. On this occasion it was British Prime Minister Andy Burnham and Trump’s nightmare of those vicious and hostile windmills that he thinks are destroying nations. He said of Burnham that…

“He’s got an energy problem. He’s got windmills all over the place. And any time you see windmills you see a failing country. They’re made in China, not used by China.”

This rant is a regular part of Trump’s raving repertoire. It has been debunked too many times to count. But he is relentless and impossible to sway from the nonsense he spews about renewable energy sources. He literally believes that you TV will shut off if the wind stops blowing, and your car can’t be driven at night. And that’s just for starters.

FOR INSTANCE: Trump Declares that ‘The Days of Stupidity Are Over’ in a Stupid Anti Wind and Solar Energy Rant

For the record, here is a list of the “failing countries” that produce the most wind energy. Notice that number one is China, where Trump says they don’t use any wind energy at all. And number two is the United States, a country that, in many ways, he himself is leading into failure, but not because of wind power.

    Leading Wind Energy Producers:

  1. China: Generates over 1,135 TWh annually with a massive capacity above 640 GW.
  2. United States: Produces roughly 464 TWh with nearly 159 GW of capacity.
  3. Germany: Generates about 136 TWh, covering over 27% of its domestic electricity.
  4. Brazil: Produces close 118 TWh, accounting for about 15.6% of its generation.
  5. India: Generates around 104 TWh with a total capacity of 54.5 GW.
  6. United Kingdom: Produces roughly 86 TWh, supplying nearly 29% of British electricity.
  7. Spain: Generates about 59 TWh, representing 20.4% of total generation.
  8. Canada: Produces over 51 TWh with an installed capacity near 17.7 GW.
  9. France: Generates about 46 TWh with a capacity of 25.6 GW.
  10. Turkey: Produces roughly 39 TWh, making up 11.1% of its domestic electricity mix.

What’s more, within the U.S. the leader in wind energy is one of Trump’s favorite states, Texas, that was responsible for generating 28% of the nation’s total wind production in 2024.

Surely there people in Trump’s administration who know these facts. But they are either too devoted to disseminating his bullshittery, or too afraid to dispute him. It’s a sad state of state affairs. And it’s a pathetic way to run a country.

And yet here we are. Hopefully there will be some relief after the November midterm elections. Although even then the reality-based community must remain vigilant and engaged. It’s gonna be a bumpy ride until January.
