Trump Proudly Hypes a Poll that Shows His MAGA-tists are Mindless Members of a Totalitarian Cult

Every model of dystopian dictatorships includes the determination of the aspiring oppressor to exalt himself as something akin to a messianic idol with the accompanying traits of infallibility and a divine endorsement. Donald Trump is no exception to this rule for ruling over a willing population of sheepish peasants

Donald Trump Messiah

Throughout his reign of error, Trump has sought to portray himself as Heaven’s ambassador to Earth. He believes – or at least seeks to delude others into believing – that he is universally beloved and more popular than Taylor Swift, Bad Bunny, and Jesus, combined. Despite questioning his own likelihood of going to Heaven, Trump acts as if he’s destined for sainthood.

Trump’s latest attempt to glorify himself came in a comment posted to his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. He bragged about the results of a new poll that found his popularity soaring to stratospheric heights. However, Trump’s celebration demonstrated his faulty grasp of opinion surveys – and reality. Along with the poll data, Trump thrilled that the…

“Survey conducted Thursday by Harper Polling shows MAGA base opinion not shifting post-Pretti killing…Of 800 likely Trump GOP voters.”

Trump posted these results from a notoriously disreputable GOP pollster.They prove only that his MAGA-tists are fully indoctrinated members of a cult who embrace totalitarianism and brutality.

Trump posted these results from Harper Polling, a notoriously disreputable GOP pollster. The respondents to the survey were all Trump supporters. So the only thing that this poll proves is that Trump’s MAGA-tists are fully indoctrinated members of a cult who embrace totalitarianism and brutality. What other excuse could there be for embracing Trump and his fascist regime that has been murdering American citizens, deporting law abiding migrants, and viciously smearing and persecuting anyone who dares to protest his autocratic overreach?

For the record, according to a Pew Research Center survey of 8,512 U.S. adults (ten times more than the Harper poll), “Trump’s approval among Republicans is now 73%.” That’s quite a ways from the Harper finding of 92%. Overall, Trump’s approval is an abysmally low 37%. Only 42% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents said “they were confident that Trump acts ethically in office.”

Trump has been dismissive of most of the polling that has been conducted recently. He bitterly maligns it all as “fake News.” In another Truth Social comment Trump suggested that polling results that were negative for him were “a criminal offense,” raging that…

“Fake and Fraudulent Polling should be, virtually, a criminal offense. […] The Failing New York Times, ABC Fake News, NBC Fake News, CBS Fake News, Low Ratings CNN, or the now defunct MSDNC, Polls were all fraudulent, and bore nothing even close to the final results. Something has to be done about Fraudulent Polling. Even the Polls of FoxNews and The Wall Street Journal have been, over the years, terrible!”

Poor baby. It’s getting harder and harder to convince himself and his disciples that he is their blessed lord and savior. Trump maligns every legitimate poll as fake. He thinks that MS NOW (formally MSNBC) is defunct. And he can’t even trust his slobbering sycophants at Fox News and the Wall Street Journal. Consequently, he needs to have them all arrested, just like he did with Don Lemon.

This is not how a free democratic republic is run. It violates the protections granted in the First Amendment of the Constitution. And it emulates the tyrannical tactics of Trump’s heroes and mentors, Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jong Un. But he must not – and will not – be allowed to succeed in his efforts to make himself America’s Führer. He will end up in the dustbin of history, just like his predecessors.

Did a Fox News Host Steer Trump to Put Tom Homan in Charge of His ICE Thugs in Minneapolis?

The Calamity in Minneapolis orchestrated by Donald Trump and his Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) StormTrumpers has proven to be massive millstone around the neck of Trump and his regime’s top henchmen and women. On an issue that Trump had leaned on heavily throughout his political misadventures, he is now deeply underwater and struggling to find a way to stay afloat.

Donald Trump, Fox News, White House

Recent surveys show that Trump’s approval on immigration is floundering at record lows. According to the Reuters/Ipsos poll “Fifty-three percent of Americans polled disapprove of the president’s immigration policy, while 39% approve of the job Trump is doing on immigration.” And no amount of gaslighting or whitewashing has helped to reverse the descent.

SEE THIS: RUSH TO JUDGMENT: Fox News and Trump Blame the Victim for 2nd ICE Shooting Death in Minneapolis

Consequently, Trump has been tenderly trying to walk back the rancid rhetoric that he has been yammering from day one of the horrific events in Minnesota, when he and his cronies smeared Alex Pretti as a “would be assassin” and “domestic terrorist.” He knows that the American people are repulsed by the deaths of peaceful, law abiding citizens, and that his attempts to viciously malign them have failed. But rather than admit any wrongdoing, or holding anyone accountable, Trump is trying to massage his messaging campaign to take the heat off of him without making any actual improvements.

Clearly Trump has no idea what to do. That’s why he has been waffling between blanket defenses of the atrocities he has caused, and pitiful stabs at displaying sympathy. The only marginally substantive reform he has taken is to cast his chief ICE enforcer in Minneapolis, Greg Bovino, into the corn field. But even that idea was not Trump’s. As reported by Brian Stelter of CNN…

“Around 6:15 a.m. on Monday, ‘Fox & Friends’ co-host Brian Kilmeade pitched a solution to President Trump’s growing political problem in Minnesota. ‘What I would do is just bring Tom Homan in,’ he said.

“Kilmeade, a Trump booster who knows the president often watches the morning show, volunteered the idea again at 7:15 and once more at 8:10. Homan, the border czar and a former Fox commentator, would ‘settle things down’ and help Trump, Kilmeade said.

“Maybe Trump was watching, maybe he wasn’t — but either way, he said, ‘I am sending Tom Homan to Minnesota tonight,’ 20 minutes after Kilmeade suggested it a third time.'”

So it appears that Kilmeade put the bug in Trump’s ear about replacing Bovino with Homan, and he embraced it in the hopes that it might ease the pain of sinking farther into the abyss of public disgust. Never mind that Homan is just as unsavory as Bovino, and he still has a corruption scandal hanging over his head alleging that he took a $50,000 bribe in exchange for delivering government favors.

The public’s view of Trump’s immigration policies has now deteriorated to the point that other Republicans are starting to show some spine by criticizing him. Actually, they are just getting to the point where they are more afraid of voters than they are of Trump. The result is that some – but certainly not all – are speaking out more critically of him than ever before.

Even some conservative media are turning against Trump. For instance, the right-wing National Review editorialized that “[Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem] has repeatedly demonstrated that she is incapable of speaking honestly about events like the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti.” Which suggests that Trump’s critics on his own side won’t be satisfied until there are some terminations, indictments, or other form of accountability. And decent American citizens won’t be satisfied until Trump himself is held to account.

Trump Posts an Utterly INSANE, Lie-Riddled Rant to Justify His $400 Million Vanity Ballroom

Throughout the second occupation of the White House by Donald Trump, the American people have been bombarded by relentless displays of his ignorance, conceit, vulgarity, and political and personal atrocities. It has been a non-stop barrage of the worst imaginable descent into the abyss of an egomaniacal madman’s determination to reign as a dictator.

Donald Trump, Toilet, Bathrobe

Recent events in Minneapolis have exacerbated the sorry state of the union. The execution of Alex Pretti, an American citizen who was lawfully protesting the inhumane tactics of Trump’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) thugs, has captured the attention of the country, most of whom are appalled and disgusted and determined to see that Trump’s criminal cohorts are brought to justice.

SEE THIS: RUSH TO JUDGMENT: Fox News and Trump Blame the Victim for 2nd ICE Shooting Death in Minneapolis

In addition to Pretti’s murder, the second one by ICE agents in Minneapolis, the American people have had to endure a steady stream of Trumpian bullshittery such as his attack on Venezuela, his efforts to annex Greenland, his imposition of punitive tariffs on U.S. allies, skyrocketing prices on everything from groceries to housing to health insurance premiums, lawsuits and regulatory assaults on the free press, and too much more to enumerate.

While all of this is going on, Trump has seen fit to focus his congenitally shrunken attention span on one of the issues that he thinks matters most to the population at large: His $400 million dollar vanity ballroom that he’s building to replace the historic East Wing of the White House that he illegally demolished. And in support of that gilded hall of elitism, Trump posted an insufferably long-winded comment on his pitifully failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. It’s way to long to repost in its entirety, but can be seen in this Bluesky skeet for those with the stomach for it.

However, there are some choice excerpts that are worth revealing in order to preserve the sheer asininity of Trump’s thinking. He began by actually making an apt observation about his ballroom obsession, saying that he is pursuing it “on top of everything else that I am doing.” Which isn’t something a sane person would brag about. Then he continued…

“I’m building, on top of everything else that I am doing, one of the greatest and most beautiful Ballrooms anywhere in the World, with more than 300 Million Dollars of Great American Patriots’ money…This is a GIFT.”
Why Trump thinks that the White House needs the world’s greatest ballroom is pure lunacy. And it is not a “gift” just because it’s being paid for by his billionaire buddies. That would more accurately be called a bribe. Also, last October Trump claimed that he was also paying for the ballroom himself. But as usual, there is zero evidence of that.

Trump called it “a desperately needed space, sought for over 150 years…for big and important STATE EVENTS, Dinners, Meetings, Conferences.”
It can hardly be described as “desperately needed” if we survived without it for 250 years. And for all of that time we have never lacked any place to host state events.

Then Trump whines that “I got sued, this time by the Radical Left National (No!)Trust for Historic Preservation, a group that couldn’t care less about our Country!”
That’s right. Trump is being tormented by those well known radical subversives at the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

And Trump lies that “Congress never tried, or wanted, to stop the Ballroom Project!”
In reality, many Democratic members of Congress did try to stop Trump’s ballroom, But they have been in the minority and Republicans refused to go along. What’s more, the National Trust for Historic Preservation that is suing Trump is actually a congressionally chartered agency.

Trump falsely asserts that the “White House [is] a place that a President has never needed permission to change or enhance.”
That is diametrically opposite of the truth.

Trump makes the preposterous claim that “it is being done with the design, consent, and approval of the highest levels of the United States Military and Secret Service.”
So what? Those agencies have absolutely no authority over any of this.

The reason that Trump is lashing out about this now has to do with recent developments with the lawsuit that he mentioned. It is not going well for him in court. As reported by Newsweek

“U.S. District Judge Richard Leon, appointed by former Republican President George W. Bush, raised doubts during a hearing on whether President Donald Trump can proceed with tearing down the historic East Wing and replacing it with a massive new structure on federal land. The hearing stems from a lawsuit filed by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.”

Trump’s single-minded persistence on erecting this expensive and useless monument is more proof that his mental capacities are failing. And his online rant only makes that more obvious. It would be hilarious of this were the plot of a sitcom. But in the real world it’s pathetic, and potentially dangerous

Although there may be a hidden benefit. If we could keep Trump focused on nonsense like this, he might have less time to do so much of the damage that he has been doing to America and the world. So keep fighting those radicals at the Preservation Trust. And keep hosting award shows at the Kennedy Center. And while you’re at it, maybe spend a little time in Venezuela where you declared yourself acting president. Perhaps they could use a ballroom.

Trump FREAKS OUT Over ‘Environmental Insurrectionists’ and Needs Climate Change Explained to Him

The weather forecast is predicting that “A monster winter storm is sweeping across much of the U.S. through this weekend, dumping up to a foot of snow onto the New York City area and unleashing havoc across the country.” At least 13 states have already issued emergency declarations in anticipation of the coming deluge.

Donald Trump with Earth, Globe, warming, climate change

Millions of Americans will be impacted by this storm. There will undoubtedly be numerous fatalities and billions of dollars in damage. But Donald Trump is proving once again that he couldn’t care less about the hardships faced by the American people. He isn’t bothering to release warnings, or admonitions to seek safety, or announcements of what he is having the federal government do to prepare. Of course not. He’s too busy with posting exaltations of himself and childish insults aimed at his political foes. For instance…

SEE THIS: Trump Whines That He Has ‘Accomplished So Much’ That ‘We Shouldn’t Even Have An Election’

The nation might have been better prepared for the the coming storms had Trump not decimated the federal agencies that track them. And now, rather than attending to the needs of the nation, Trump took to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, to post a storm related message that only affirms how extraordinarily stupid he is, in addition to being insensitive. Trump raged about the…

“Record Cold Wave expected to hit 40 States. Rarely seen anything like it before. Could the Environmental Insurrectionists please explain — WHATEVER HAPPENED TO GLOBAL WARMING? ? ?”

Trump continues to proudly display what an infantile idiot he is.

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-01-23T19:16:11.874Z

REALLY? Let’s just set aside Trump’s ridiculous characterization of environmental scientists, activists, and concerned citizens, as “Environmental Insurrectionists,” suggesting that they have violent intentions to overthrow the government. He’s calling everyone that he disagrees with “insurrectionists” these days. He learned a new word, so he’s repeating it uncontrollably and without regard to coherent context.. Which is a symptom of cognitive impairment.

What’s worse is that Trump is proudly admitting that he has no idea what Climate Change is. So he’s asking, sarcastically, for those with knowledge to explain it to him. But this isn’t the first time he has exhibited this ignorance. Trump still doesn’t know the difference between climate and weather.

For Trump’s benefit, the simplest explanation of “WHATEVER HAPPENED TO GLOBAL WARMING” is that it remains a dire threat to the planet. It does not mean that everywhere, at all times, it is getting warmer. It means that the climate of the whole Earth is getting warmer on average. That can cause some places to actually get colder. Warming oceans can alter the jet stream and push cold weather fronts farther south than normal. Which is what is happening now.

Trump won’t bother to acknowledge these simple facts, even if he understood them. And he surely won’t look any deeper for more complex explanations. But his purposeful bone-headedness doesn’t invalidate reality. And virtually every credible expert agrees that Climate Change is occurring and rapidly progressing. 2025 was one of the hottest years on record.

Trump will never acknowledge the truth about Climate Change, that he calls a hoax perpetrated by China. What Trump will do is to continue lie about it and suppress clean energy resources (wind, solar, etc.) that can mitigate the problem. And he will also continue to post asinine comments that misinform his cult devotees and embrace blithering idiocy as a virtue.

By doing so Trump caters to the needs of the big polluting corporations who will show their gratitude with generous donations, aka bribes. Because that’s who he cares about. Not you. And not any of the people who will be hurt in the coming storm(s).

Sean Hannity Drools Over Insane Trump Proposal to Give Everyone in Greenland $100,000

The Sycophancy Meter for devotees of Donald Trump routinely registers at the highest levels that it is capable of reporting. His cult members are entirely devoid of any measure of shame or self respect when it comes to affirming their unflinching adoration of Dear Leader.

Donald Trump Sean Hannity

Consistent with most cults, Trump’s is characterized by his painfully obvious psychological and emotional abnormalities. He is paranoid, petulant, rage-filled, malignant narcissist, with a tenuous grasp on reality. It is a profile that he shares with the likes of Jim Jones. Although a notable difference between Jones and Trump is that Trump would have charged his flock for the Kool Aid. Like Jones, however, Trump demands an unwavering faith in his infallibility, and eternal loyalty.

SEE THIS: Trump Whines That He Has ‘Accomplished So Much’ That ‘We Shouldn’t Even Have An Election’

In a demonstration of his unreserved reverence for Trump, Sean Hannity of Fox News led a segment on his program with MAGA Sen. Eric Schmitt of Missouri. The two discussed Trump’s ludicrous intentions to annex Greenland against the will of it’s citizens, with force if necessary, and despite the opposition of America’s allies in the European Union and NATO. In his fawning display of idolization, Hannity gushed that…

“Donald Trump’s forever in a state of negotiation. Everything’s negotiable. A $100,000 offer for every person in Greenland – on average making 60 grand a year – Denmark’s not exactly been generous to them. They don’t have the ability to help them take their natural resources to the next level and enrich every person in Greenland. We do…Seems like a no-brainer to me.”

Indeed. It would require having no brains to give Trump’s proposal even the slightest bit of serious consideration. Hannity’s praise of Trump for his alleged negotiating prowess is just more of the mythology that he is a great dealmaker. Never minds his numerous bankruptcies and multiple civil and criminal judgments for fraud. And don’t bother looking up the real author of his book, “The Art of the Deal.”

Hannity’s contention that for Trump “Everything’s negotiable,” is hardly a compliment. It highlights Trump’s ethical vacancy wherein he would negotiate away his mother’s dentures for a McDonalds Happy Meal for himself, or an award trophy that he didn’t earn. And he would make (and has made) the same awful deals with American principles.

The specific deal that Hannity is referencing involves Trump’s proposal to pay every resident of Greenland $100,000 in exchange for surrendering their sovereignty. Which just proves that Trump can put a price tag on anything, including honor, virtue, and patriotism. And if he would do that to Greenlanders, he would it to Americans.

What’s more, Hannity is exhibiting his own lack of moral character by lauding Trump’s shallowness and greed as virtuous. Hannity is also flaunting his ignorance by asserting that Denmark has not been “generous” to the Greenlanders. Does Hannity think that Trump would allow them to continue to receive free healthcare, education, and extended parental leave and vacation? Would they give up all of those lifetime benefits for a one-time handout?

As for their ability to “take their natural resources to the next level and enrich every person in Greenland,” maybe they don’t crave such materialism the way Trump does. Maybe they prefer the quality of life they have that regularly ranks Denmark as one of the happiest countries on Earth.

Finally, What would America get for the billions it would cost to compensate Greenland? It would just be another expenditure by Trump that only benefits him and his wealthy comrades, but ignores how the American people are struggling. All in all, a truly horrible deal. Which is exactly the kind that Trump specializes in. And neither Greenlanders nor Americans should take him up on it.

Trump’s Asst Attorney General for Civil Rights Maligns Liberal Americans as ‘Godless People’

The public profile of Donald Trump has always been a mash-up of preposterously fabricated personal characteristics that never match-up with reality. Beginning, of course, with his efforts to portray himself as a successful businessman and deal maker. Which was a stretch for someone with numerous bankruptcies whose book on deal making was written by someone else.

Donald Trump Messiah

Trump has also tried to pass himself off as brave military advocate (who dodged the draft five times and called those who didn’t “suckers” and “losers.” And he fancies himself a peace proponent (who invades foreign countries and even American cities). And he regards his mental capacity as surpassing that of other mere mortals (because he “passed” simple cognitive tests meant to detect early onset Alzheimer’s). For these, and many other self-serving reasons, Trump insists that he deserves everyone’s gratitude.

SEE THIS: POOR BABY: Trump Whines that Polls Don’t Give Him Credit for ‘the Greatness of America’

And speaking of gratitude, we must not forget that Trump also considers himself to be America’s pastor. Despite rarely attending any church services, and frequently disparaging the faith of others, Trump wants to held in the highest esteem as a religious prophet. Never mind that he is a serial adulterer, patron of prostitutes, pathological liar, pal (at least) of pedophiles, and prolific user of profanities. He remains the messiah of the MAGA cult.

On Monday morning Trump’s Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights, Harmeet Dhillon, was “interviewed” by ultra-MAGA podcaster Benny Johnson. Johnson, by the way, is also a known asset of Russian propagandists. But that surely wouldn’t prevent any Trump cronies from embracing him. It probably helps.

During their discussion, Johnson and Dhillon talked about a recent incident where some protesters in Minneapolis interrupted the services of a right-wing pastor who also happened to be agent of the brutally inhumane Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE). He was known to use his position in the church to defend the savage and unlawful tactics of ICE. The protest was seen by the Trumpist pair as an intolerable violation of religious liberty. So they took the opportunity to lie about and insult the protesters in a manner wholly inappropriate for any public servant.

Johnson: It’s not an act of journalism if I kick in the door of a synagogue and go up to the rabbi and start live-streaming that as people scream at the Jewish people trying to pray. Not that’s not an act of journalism. That’s terrorism.
Dhillon: One of the issues here is the people on the left that we’re talking about, they’re not familiar with what goes on in a house of worship. A lot of them are godless people.”

Assistant DOJ Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon: "The people on the left we're talking about, they're not familiar with what goes on in a house of worship. A lot of them are godless people."

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-01-19T15:46:18.731Z

To begin with, nobody “kicked in the door” of any religious facility. And to characterize the actions of the protesters as terrorism is to call Jesus Christ a terrorist. Anyone who has actually read the bible knows the story of when Jesus entered a temple and, upon seeing the sacrilegious activities carried out inside, overturned the tables and condemned the hypocrites.

In response, Dhillon accused the protesters of not being “familiar with what goes on in a house of worship.” Of course, she has no way of knowing that. And she doesn’t seem to be bothered by Trump not being familiar with anything regarding Christianity, or his brazen disrespect for all of its principles. You know, welcoming strangers, feeding the poor, healing the sick, humility, loving one another, etc.

This entire discussion was just another example of the hypocrisy that is employed by the Trump cultists, and their compulsion to exploit faith as a political tool in order to keep their glassy-eyed disciples in line. They have managed to live out the old saying that “When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross” And they do it with an unfathomable degree of pride mixed with ignorance. Which isn’t surprising considering the model presented by their Dear Leader…

Trump Escalates His Threat to Take Greenland By Force in an Absolutely Insane Truth Social Rant

The legacy of Donald Trump is going to be jam-packed with the most profoundly preposterous actions and rhetoric of any president in the history of the United States – or any other nation for that matter. His wild outbursts attacking everything from previous presidents, to the free press, to windmills that kill birds and cause cancer, make life difficult for political comedians whose humor can’t compete with Trump’s insanity.

Donald Trump Pacifier Fox

However, Trump’s actions as president are far worse than his words. He has imposed inflationary tariffs on virtually every country on the planet, including our allies. He has terminated international aid that has resulted in hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths. He invaded Venezuela and abducted its president who he calls a drug trafficker, while granting pardons to certified, convicted drug kingpins. He has deployed soldiers into American cities to suppress constitutionally protected dissent. And for that abridged selection of Trump’s many malfeasances, he believes that he should be anointed president-for-life…

SEE THIS: Trump Whines That He Has ‘Accomplished So Much’ That ‘We Shouldn’t Even Have An Election’

If any further proof were needed that Trump is suffering from a severe case of mental impairment, Trump himself provided it on Saturday morning. He posted a tediously elongated tirade, intended to justify his deranged obsession with taking over Greenland, on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. It’s too long and filled with bullshit to repost. But what follows are a few annotated excerpts that provide a summary of just how far the cognitive rot has eaten into Trump’s mushy brain matter. He begins…

“We have subsidized Denmark, and all of the Countries of the European Union, and others, for many years by not charging them Tariffs.”
Not charging tariffs is not the same as subsidizing. To the contrary, charging tariffs is commonly regarded as a sanction. which is exactly how Trump is using them in this instance by his own admission.

“It is time for Denmark to give back — World Peace is at stake! China and Russia want Greenland.”
Denmark doesn’t owe the U.S. anything. And world peace is hardly at stake because Greenland is a territory of an American ally in NATO. Also, Russia and China have exhibit no interest in Greenland, and if they did they would face international resistance from the NATO alliance.

“They [Greenland] currently have two dogsleds as protection.”
Trump thinks this is funny. In reality Greenland has been successfully affiliated with Denmark for 300 years (longer than the U.S. has existed). And Denmark is well equipped with modern maritime and air power technologies, including a fleet of American F-35 fighter jets.

“Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland have journeyed to Greenland, for purposes unknown. This is a very dangerous situation. Therefore, it is imperative that, in order to protect Global Peace and Security, strong measures be taken.”
Trump is openly threatening an array of American allies. Which actually makes him the provocateur of a “dangerous situation.” Is he talking about the same “measures” he used against Venezuela?

“Starting on February 1st, 2026, all of the above mentioned Countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland), will be charged a 10% Tariff on any and all goods sent to the United States of America. On June 1st, 2026, the Tariff will be increased to 25%.”
So Trump is threatening to rescind his prior trade agreements that he made with these nations, and instead punish them for adhering to the long held NATO treaty obligations that the U.S. is also subject to. These tariffs will only make the cost of living hardships in the U.S. – which are due to Trump’s already atrocious economic policies – even worse.

“This Tariff will be due and payable until such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland.”
In Trump’s mob boss lingo, he thinks that he is extorting America’s allies to coerce them into complying with his utterly unreasonable demands. “Give me what I want,” Trump is yalping, “or pay up.” But he is actually just forcing American companies and consumers to pay more for everything imported from these countries.

True to form, Trump is demonstrating how pitifully ignorant he is of economics and international relations. But unfortunately, it is the citizens of the U.S., and these foreign targets of Trump’s egomaniacal wrath, who will suffer.

There is, however, some good news. The suffering that Trump is causing may not be long lasting. Everything he is doing lately is contributing to his being the most reviled president in decades. And as his approval ratings sink into the abyss, his comrades in Congress will begin to fear the voters more than they fear him. At that point – and we may be there now – Trump will be vulnerable to political defiance, sanctions, and even impeachment. Particularly if he takes hostile actions toward Greenland. Or Minneapolis, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Portland, etc.

Trump Whines That He Has ‘Accomplished So Much’ That ‘We Shouldn’t Even Have An Election’

The American experiment in democracy is facing some its most dire challenges during the second occupation of the White House by Donald Trump. He has never been an advocate of government “of, by, and for the people,” and he isn’t about to embrace those principles now.

King Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

Abraham Lincoln’s hopes expressed in the Gettysburg Address couldn’t be more urgently needed today as the nation is engaged in a virtual Civil War between Trump and, well, pretty much everybody else who isn’t an indoctrinated Trump cultist. And if he has his way, the freedom and liberty that have been cherished goals for patriotic Americans for 250 years will sadly “perish from the Earth.” The madness of Der Trump is literally threatening to rip apart the American Dream.

SEE THIS: Trump Says it’s ‘Treasonous’ to Report His Frail Health, in a Post that Reveals His Frail Mind

In an interview with Reuters on Wednesday, Trump articulated some of his most bizarre and frightening aspirations for the future of this country. In particular, he was asked about the dismal prospects for his MAGA Republican Party in the upcoming midterm elections later this year. As reported by Reuters

“The president expressed frustration that his Republican Party could lose control of the U.S. House of Representatives or the Senate in this year’s midterm elections…He boasted that he had accomplished so much that ‘when you think of it, we shouldn’t even have an election.'”

Trump is justified in being frustrated by the electoral outlook for the GOP. Most polls show that Democrats are strong favorites to return to the majority in the House, and are well positioned to retake the Senate as well. Trump knows that if that happens, he will be subject to more accountability for his criminal misconduct than he has been with his MAGA flunkies running Congress. Including being impeached for the third time.

So it isn’t especially surprising that an anti-democracy, wannabe dictator like Trump told Reuters that, in his opinion, “we shouldn’t even have an election.” Trump has been angling for an excuse to either cancel elections, or so badly suppress voting, that the elections hardly matter. Most recently Trump floated the idea of invoking the Insurrection Act, which could be used to prevent or delay the election. Exploiting the chaos he’s been deliberately causing in Minneapolis, Trump posted a lie-filled comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, saying that…

“If the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don’t obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the Patriots of I.C.E., who are only trying to do their job, I will institute the INSURRECTION ACT.”

Of course the politicians in Minnesota are not corrupt, they do obey the law, there are no professional agitators, and insurrectionists are not attacking ICE, who are provoking violence and assaulting innocent citizens.

Nevertheless, Trump’s Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, sought to sane-wash Trump’s threat to cancel elections at her press briefing. She was asked about why Trump keeps talking about canceling the election. She replied that “The president was simply joking.” Because the thought of ending democracy in America is just so damn funny.

Q: Why does Trump keep talking about canceling the election?LEAVITT: He's speaking facetiously

In the same interview with Reuters Trump…

  • Said “I don’t care,” when asked about Senate Republicans expressing disapproval of his investigation into Federal Reserve chair, Jerome Powell.
  • Also said “I don’t care,” when told about “concerns that White House interference in the Fed could harm the economy.”
  • Whined that “Americans’ worries about high prices” were only due to his not doing a good job of “promoting his achievements.”
  • Lied that “Putin is ready to strike a deal” for peace with Ukraine, but that “the hold-up” was Ukrainian President Zelenskyy,
  • And falsely claimed that “his efforts [in Minnesota] had taken ‘thousands of murderers out of our country.”

Presumably, those are some of the examples of Trump’s “achievements” that would justify his canceling the election. Add to them his bombing of boats in the Caribbean; his razing part of the White House to build an elite ballroom; his persecution of political foes by his weaponized “Justice” Department; his sabotaging the Affordable Care Act, causing premiums to skyrocket; his dismantling government agencies that benefit millions of middle and low income citizens; his reversing gains made in mitigating the harm of climate change; and too many other atrocities to list.

So, yeah… Trump definitely wants to cancel the election. Because he knows that he and the GOP will be massacred. And he aint joking.

Stephen Miller Tells Trump’s ICE Thugs that They Have Immunity to Do Whatever the F**k They Want

The authoritarian aspirations of Donald Trump continue to be put on display by him and his devoted cult disciples. And those aspirations encompass the most grotesque components of the tyranny that Trump craves.

Donald Trump Baby and Stephen Miller

From Trump’s first steps into the political realm he has openly sought to emulate dictators like Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un, and Xi Jinping, all of whom he regards as friends and lavishes with praise. Contrast that with how he treats fellow Americans, Democrats and Republicans, who fail to sufficiently worship him. They are maligned as “scumbags” and “traitors” and “the enemy within.” For example…

SEE THIS: Trump Accuses Democratic Members of Congress With ‘Seditious Behavior, Punishable by Death’

In the days following the gruesome murder of Renee Good by a hostile and unqualified agent of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE), the Trump regime has been feverishly trying to justify that atrocity by smearing the reputation of Good, and brazenly lying about what took place. They insist that Good had deliberately run over ICE agent Jonathan Ross, despite numerous videos that show she was actually turning away from Ross, and that her car never touched him.

That flagrantly false smear campaign is still in progress. And on Wednesday it was taken to a new extreme. In a Twitter/X post. The Homeland Security Department dropped a reminder from Trump’s neo-Nazi advisor, Stephen Miller, to all of the ICE thugs patrolling American streets. It said…

“REMINDER. ‘To all ICE officers: You have federal immunity in the conduct of your duties. Anybody who lays a hand on you or tries to stop you or tries to obstruct you is committing a felony. You have immunity to perform your duties, and no one—no city official, no state official, no illegal alien, no leftist agitator or domestic insurrectionist—can prevent you from fulfilling your legal obligations and duties. The Department of Justice has made clear that if officials cross that line into obstruction, into criminal conspiracy against the United States or against ICE officers, then they will face justice.’ @StephenM”

Every word of that, of course, is utterly false. There is no such “federal immunity” And anyone, ICE agent or otherwise, is subject to the laws of this nation, and the states in which they operate. Merely saying that they have immunity has no legal standing. If ICE agents violate the laws of any state, or any federal laws, or provisions of the Constitution, they are subject to arrest, indictment, and prosecution. They are also subject to civil lawsuits.

Just for good measure, this question was put to Grok, the Twitter/X AI bot. And it was in complete agreement with the analysis above…

To make matters worse, Trump’s immigration czar, Tom Homan, was asked about whether he was concerned that video of ICE thugs brutally assaulting people would cause “Americans who see this [to] say this looks like Putin’s Russia.” He replied that…

“That’s ridiculous. You know what? In Minneapolis… [Homan then veers off into an extended and unrelated rant about Biden releasing millions of illegal aliens, and some nonsense about sanctuary cities. And then…] It makes it dangerous for the officer. It makes it dangerous for the alien. And It certainly makes it dangerous for the community.”

Q: In Mpls, we're seeing images like a woman who was dragged out of her car by federal agents. There are Americans who see that & say this looks like Putin's Russia–HOMAN: That's ridiculous. If they'd let us in their damn jails & stop being a sanctuary city, we could arrest bad guys in safety

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-01-14T17:11:07.085Z

In other words, “Yeah, it does look like Putin’s Russia, but so what?” Homan never answered the question about what the American people should think of innocent folks, including U.S. citizens, being physically assaulted by ICE. But he did justify the brutality of the ICE thugs, even if they were behaving like barbarians of the Putin regime. They seem downright proud of it.

What all of this tells us is that Trump and his comrades are determined to trample on the rights of the American people. And any attempt to criticize or resist will be met with violent punishment by the StormTrumpers. This is Trump’s vision of a fascist Amerika. And he isn’t even bothering to disguise it anymore. Which makes it all the more imperative to resist and to prevent them from carrying out their assault on democracy and freedom. If we stay strong, we cannot lose. 8647!

THANKS DON: If Trump Gets His Way, Democrats Will Win a Big Majority in the Senate This Year

The upcoming midterm elections in November are going to present some compelling opportunities for Democrats. In 2025 they enjoyed some strong victories across the nation in races that were predicted to be close. And in many other races where they fell short, they narrowed the margin significantly.

Donald Trump, Republican, GOP

Now most polls are showing that the Democratic Party is favored to win a majority in the House of Representatives. That advantage is the result of a combination of factors. First, Democrats have been taking the lead on the issues that matter most to the American people. And secondly, Republicans are saddled with Donald Trump, a mentally impaired megalomaniac who is only interested in himself.

SEE THIS: Does Trump’s Latest Truth Social Post Constitutionally Disqualify Him From Serving as President?

While Democrats are working hard to lower the cost of housing, healthcare, groceries, and other expenses that folks encounter on a daily basis, Trump and his MAGA comrades are are squarely focused on building ballrooms, invading other countries (Venezuela, Greenland, Iran, Mexico, etc.), imposing inflationary tariffs, suppressing the Epstein files, and cutting government programs that help middle and lower income citizens, in order to enrich Trump and his wealthy benefactors.

That’s a political recipe for GOP disaster. But despite how bad that is as a strategy, Trump is going all in on it. On Tuesday morning Trump was asked about his vindictive and meritless persecution of Federal Reserve Board Chairman Jerome Powell. His response reveals just how devoted he is to – – – electing more Democrats?

Question: Sen. Thom Tillis says that the grand jury subpoena to the Federal Reserve chairman [Jerome Powell] was a little excessive. What do you think?
Trump: Well, that is why Thom is not going to be a Senator any longer, I guess. Right?. But I like Thom Tillis. He’s a nice guy. But he’s not gonna be a senator any longer because of views like that.

Q: “Sen. Thom Tillis says that the grand jury subpoena to the Federal Reserve chairman was a little excessive. What do you think?”Trump: “That is why Thom is not going to be a Senator any longer.”

The Bulwark (@thebulwark.com) 2026-01-13T19:08:30.357Z

Trump’s reaction to news that a Republicans senator considers the probe by Trump’s “Justice” Department to be only “a little excessive,” is to celebrate the end of that senator’s political career. Which Democrats will surely appreciate. Tillis represents the purple state of North Carolina that currently has a popular Democratic governor, Josh Stein. Tillis isn’t running for reelection this year, but former Democratic governor Roy Cooper is running for that seat, and holds a substantial lead over his likely GOP opponent.

Trump went on to demonstrate his ignorance of economics by stating that…

“We have a bad Fed chairman. He’s bad in a lot of different ways. But he’s bad because his interest rates are too high. And today we had a great inflation report. And today we had a really great growth report. So we have great growth and low inflation. And we’re doing very well.”

First of all, the Fed chair is just one vote on the Board, so he alone does not determine the interest rates. And true to form, Trump is lying about how great recent economic reports are. However, more to the point, Trump’s analysis that a strong economy warrants lowering of interests is the exact opposite of proper fiscal policy. Interest rates are generally only lowered to juice an economy that is troubled. Doing so with a strong economy is more likely to trigger inflation.

As for Trump’s political analysis, his embrace of losing this incumbent Republican senator is just the start of his strategic foolishness. He also came out against five other GOP senators who had the audacity to vote against his aspirations for unilateral tyranny over American war powers. He commented on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, that…

“Republicans should be ashamed of the Senators that just voted with Democrats in attempting to take away our Powers to fight and defend the United States of America. Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Rand Paul, Josh Hawley, and Todd Young should never be elected to office again.”

Trump’s opinion that these Republicans “should never be elected to office again” will be welcomed by Democrats, who only need to net four seats in order to become the majority. Flipping these five seats, along with Tillis, would do that with a two seat cushion. So once again, the more that Trump talks, the better things get for Democrats.

More Republicans are starting to defy Trump. Several recently did so to pass bills to extend the Obamacare subsidies, and to reign in his military aggressions. We are reaching a tipping point where the GOP are becoming more afraid of voters than they are of Trump. And the result of that will be that he lashes out more at members of his own party out of pure spite. And Democrats will be the beneficiaries.
