Trump is APPALLED that Fox News Reported on Tom Steyer, a Candidate for Governor of California

Posted by on April 15, 2026 at 2:13 pm. 0 Comments :

Poor crybaby Donald Trump is very upset by Fox News reporting on the governor’s race in California. Well, he’s only upset by part of it. Apparently Trump thinks that Fox News should only be covering Republican candidates for governor. And even then, only the MAGA candidate that he endorsed.

Donald Trump, Fox News, Fake

On Wednesday morning Trump was busy performing what he thinks are his presidential duties: Watching Fox News and posting asinine comments on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. Never mind that there is a war going on in Iran that has spread through the Middle East. Or that the U.S. economy is tanking. Or that his approval ratings are in the toilet as the midterm election is approaching.

SEE THIS: UH-OH! Fox News Poll Spells DOOM for Trump and His MAGA Republicans in Congress

Rather than addressing the critical issues that the American people are most interested in, Trump was raging over what he regards as an atrocity committed by his Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News. Trump pounded out a furious rant concerning something he just saw on Fox about the California governor’s race…

“Why is FoxNews showing SLEAZEBAG Tom Steyer, doing a big piece on him right now, and probably putting him ‘into play,’ instead of talking about Republican Candidates, and really good ones like Steve Hilton, and Republicans? How can a Republican expect to win that State, with their Mail In Voting and Rigged Elections, when you have FoxNews promoting the Democrats? Nobody cares about Tom Steyer, he is a LOSER, but Fox is making it possible for a guy like this to win. VOTE FOR STEVE HILTON, AND TURN CALIFORNIA AROUND! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

OMG! Fox News actually did a story that included a Democratic candidate for governor of California? How could they? After all, Tom Steyer, according to Trump, is just a “SLEAZEBAG” and a “LOSER” and “nobody cares” about him. Which are all facets of character that Trump knows well due to all them being core parts of his own character.

Trump’s assertion that nobody cares about Steyer flies in the face of reality as he is currently leading in the polls for all candidates – Democratic and Republican – running in the upcoming primary. And Trump’s claim that Fox News put Steyer “into Play.” ignores Steyer’s $120 million advertising campaign.

In Trump’s cartoon brain, Fox News is obligated to only do stories about Republicans, and only about Trump if they can swing it. So he whines that Fox should have been reporting on the GOP candidate, Steve Hilton, who happens to be a former Fox News contributor. What a coincidence.

Adding to the absurdity of Trump’s comment, Fox News had actually just done a story about Hilton less than a hour before Trump’s post. The Hilton segment was mostly vicious and false anti-Steyer ranting. The “big piece” about Steyer that rattled Trump wasn’t much more than a mention of his fundraising and his standing in the polls along with the other candidates. And it also contained some swipes at Steyer’s rational immigration proposals that Trump and the GOP regard as radical leftist policies.

Finally, Trump also had to throw in a dig at “Mail In Voting and Rigged Elections” as the reason he thinks that Republicans can’t win in California. Of course it couldn’t have anything to do with their radical right policies that Californians abhor, could it? Also, someone should remind Trump of Arnold Schwarzenegger, who managed to overcome the election rigging and win two terms as governor.

If Trump really thinks that Fox News viewers are going to be persuaded to vote for Steyer given the negative reports they put on the air, he is dumber than we thought. Likewise, putting more of Hilton on isn’t going to help him with the vast majority of California’s voters who don’t watch Fox News. But if whining on Truth Social makes Trump feel better and keeps him from doing greater harm with his wars, his economic fiascoes, and his relentless breaches of law and morality, then let him go ahead and do that. Like all babies, it’s best to keep his attention focused on trivial distractions.

AMERICA FIRST? Trump Promises To Use ‘The Economic Might of the US To Strengthen Hungary’s Economy’

Posted by on April 11, 2026 at 2:44 pm. 0 Comments :

The political centerpiece of Donald Trump’s occupation of the White House has been the cheesy sloganeering that he stole from 1920s American fascists: “Make America Great Again.” That message presupposes that America wasn’t great to begin with. And Trump expanded that pessimistic point of view by insisting that he would always put “America First.”

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

Donald Trump

Trump’s promises with regard to his commitment to American supremacy are like all of his other promises. They are flimsy and unreliable and subject to being abandoned whenever they don’t advance his personal interests. And through it all Trump manages to imagine himself as a beloved leader that can do no wrong.

SEE THIS: Trump Desperately Clings to Wildly Adoring Polls, Doesn’t Mention They Only Polled His Supporters

In the fourteen months since Trump returned to power he has plainly demonstrated his ignorance and incompetence. He has wrecked the economy with higher inflation due to his tariffs and idiotic trade policies. He has destroyed faith in the law with his invasions of U.S. cities by ICE thugs and persecution of political foes. And he has launched a reckless and illegal war against Iran.

So how does all of that translate into fulfilling Trump’s pledge of achieving American greatness? Obviously it does not. And Trump’s response to that record of abysmal failure is to spend millions of taxpayer dollars erecting tributes to himself, such as a vanity ballroom, an arch of triumph, and plastering his name and pumpkin-hued mug on everything from the Kennedy Center to U.S. currency.

Trump is engaging in a festival of ego-fluffing that is reminiscent of the totalitarian dictators that he idolizes and seeks to emulate. Among them are Russia’s Vladimir Putin, North Korea’s Kim Jong Un, and Hungary’s Viktor Orbán. The latter of which is lately on Trump’s mind due to the election on Sunday that he is predicted to lose.

Trump has given Orbán his “Complete and Total Endorsement.” He even sent his Vice-President, JD Vance, to Hungary last week to campaign for Orbán. And most recently Trump posted a supportive comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, to buttress Orbán’s losing effort, saying that “My Administration stands ready to use the full Economic Might of the United States to strengthen Hungary’s Economy.”

Good to know. With everything that is going wrong in the U.S., Trump is focusing squarely on the political travails of a Hungarian authoritarian. And he’s using the “the full Economic Might” of the U.S. to bribe Hungarian voters to reelect someone that they clearly don’t want. Perhaps the American people would prefer that Might to be used to shore up America’s healthcare system, or resolve the homeless crisis, or improve education, or even just pay down the debt that Trump has exploded. But Trump has other priorities that include propping up his heroes.

MORE HERE: Trump Slobbers Over Hungarian Dictator Viktor Orbán, Whose Unchecked Power He Envies and Craves

For some background on Orbán, historian Timothy Snyder wrote an essay that summarizes much of the current obsession that Trump has with Orbán. He notes that Orbán is a subversive member of the European Union who often works to advance the interests of Europe’s enemies. Snyder wrote in part that…

“Viktor Orbán, the prime minister of Hungary, is a central figure in the international far right, and indeed the man, more than any other, who created the networks that normalized what he himself calls ‘illiberalism.’ Should he lose, as all signs indicate he will, this would be blow to far more familiar figures such as JD Vance and Donald Trump, who are Orbán’s pupils.” […]

“Orbán has done more than anyone else to generate negative propaganda about the European Union, treating it as a hostile enemy. […] His government opened EU territory to Russian and Chinese intelligence operations.”

There may, however, be a silver lining to the campaigning by Trump and Vance for Orbán. As reported by Newsweek…

“The likelihood Viktor Orbán winning Hungary’s upcoming parliamentary election has dropped since U.S. Vice President JD Vance made a speech endorsing him, according to the latest betting odds.”

Betting platforms Kalshi and Polymarket both show Orbán’s chances of winning have declined significantly since Trump’s endorsement and Vance’s visit. So maybe we should encourage Trump and company to do more campaigning for world leaders, and even for candidates here at home. His name is like poison to many voters.

UPDATE: Orbán not only lost, he lost big, with the winning Tisza Party gaining a supermajority in the Hungarian Parliament.

Trump Desperately Clings to Wildly Adoring Polls, Doesn’t Mention They Only Polled His Supporters

The raging egomania of Donald Trump is often revealed in his pitifully deranged behavior. He has a habit of declaring that everything he does or says surpasses the meager activities of mere mortals “on a level that has never been seen before.” It’s remarkable how one person can be so extraordinarily superior to everyone else on the planet so consistently.

Donald Trump

Trump’s messianic view of himself comes across to most people as severely psychotic. But his glassy-eyed cult disciples embrace him as a manifestation of the divine. They are bound to accept his every pronouncement as gospel, and his every decree as holy. That’s the nature of a cult. And Trump is their Dear Leader who closely monitors their devotion to insure their unflinching loyalty.

SEE THIS: Trump PR Flack, Karoline Leavitt, Embraces Poll that Proves MAGA is a Cult that Worships Trump

To that end, Trump repeatedly misleads his cult followers by trying to convince them that he is universally adored. Nothing could be farther from the truth. His approval ratings are so deeply underwater that even Fox News can’t ignore it. So Trump resorts to collecting blatantly biased polls and presenting them as credible.

MORE HERE: UH-OH! Fox News Poll Spells DOOM for Trump and His MAGA Republicans in Congress

On Tuesday Trump posted three such polls on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. The polls were conducted by the notoriously partisan McLaughlin & Associates. The results of these surveys say that Trump’s use of tariffs are approved by 91% of the survey’s respondents. Also, Trump’s decision to use military force in Iran is approved by 89%. Also, Trump arresting Venezuelan Dictator Nicolas Maduro is approved by 92%. On every one of those issues credible polls show Trump with overwhelmingly negative numbers.

In none of Trump’s posts did he bother to mention that the polls he posted were all taken at the recent CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) conference. CPAC is a convention of far right Republicans that featured guest speakers like Steve Bannon, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, ICE Director Tom Homan, Matt Gaetz, FCC Chair Brendan Carr, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, Mike Lindell, and, well you get the idea. It’s a convention of Trump-fluffers, by Trump-fluffers, for Trump-fluffers.

Some other results of the CPAC poll include Trump’s overall approval at 96%. And 94% say that Trump is “the best President in my lifetime.” Most of the more credible pollsters have Trump’s approval in record low territory that dips below 40%.

Trump, however, wants his cult devotees to believe that they are part of a massive contingent of patriots who want to make American great again, when they are actually a pathetic klan of kooks and crybabies who just want to blame their problems on minorities, immigrants, and the liberals who actually do make America great. So to rope in his MAGA-tists, Trump openly lies about his support. And this instance with the CPAC polls isn’t the first time. Just 10 days ago…

This is a desperation play by Trump. He knows that he is widely despised and that his MAGA GOP comrades in Congress are about to lose their majority status to Democrats. That will put Trump in the uncomfortable position of being vulnerable to honest and competent oversight for a change. And honesty and competence are two things that Trump is totally unfamiliar with, and intensely afraid of. The White House is going to have to stock up on ketchup bottles and other throwing items between now and November.

Dementia J. Trump Calls the Supreme Court ‘STUPID’ as the Birthright Citizenship Case Begins

Posted by on March 30, 2026 at 2:16 pm. 0 Comments :

There are two wars currently raging for the United States. One is the “little excursion” that Donald Trump embarked upon against Iran on phony allegations of nuclear capabilities, and without getting authorization from Congress, as required by law. The other is Trump’s war against democracy here at home, where he is desperately trying to avoid an electoral blowout in the November midterms.

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

Donald Trump

Trump’s fear of Democrats assuming majorities in both the House of Representatives and the Senate is driving him to plot far more detailed strategies than anything he has done for the Iran conflict. Which isn’t a very high bar, because his plans for Iran are little more than bomb everything, declare victory, then bomb some more anyway. But his fellow Americans that he regards as the nation’s real enemies get much greater attention…

SEE THIS: Trump Unleashes a Manic Tirade Attacking Those He Says are America’s Greatest Enemy – Democrats?

Trump is justified to be worried about Democrats gaining control of Congress. The list of his impeachable acts is growing by the day. And that isn’t even counting his criminal acts that violate state and federal laws, as well as the Constitution. And the prospect of Democratic victories across the country is as near a certainty as election predictions can get.

So what is Trump doing to defend himself from this approaching political massacre? He is resorting to his typically anti-American tactics of trying to rig elections and suppress turnout. Because he knows that campaigning on his broadly unpopular policies and abysmal record would only result in failure. Consequently, he is embarking on a path to steal the midterms by making it harder, or impossible, to vote. To that end he posted a comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, advocating ways to undermine democracy.

As the Supreme Court prepares to hear arguments on Birthright Citizenship, Trump thinks calling them "STUPID" will secure their votes.He also criticizes selling American citizenship, which is a policy that he introduced with his $5 million Trump Gold Card.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-03-30T17:02:29.230Z

Trump’s comment outlines some of his favorite methods of interfering with elections. such as attacking the principle of “Birthright Citizenship” that is enshrined in the Constitution’s 14th Amendment. The amendment explicitly grants citizenship to “All persons born or naturalized in the United States.” Trump would love to invalidate all of those voters. And he is hoping that the conservative majority on the Supreme court will help him to achieve that goal. However, Trump’s strategy to get the Court to rule in his favor is, to say the least, unique. He wrote that…

“Birthright Citizenship is not about rich people from China, and the rest of the World, who want their children, and hundreds of thousands more, FOR PAY, to ridiculously become citizens of the United States of America. It is about the BABIES OF SLAVES! We are the only Country in the World that dignifies this subject with even discussion. Look at the dates of this long ago legislation – THE EXACT END OF THE CIVIL WAR! The World is getting rich selling citizenships to our Country, while at the same time laughing at how STUPID our U.S. Court System has become (TARIFFS!). ‘Dumb Judges and Justices will not a great Country make!'”

What a brilliant move by the alleged master deal maker. Insult all of the Justices – six of whom are conservative, including three that he appointed – as too dumb to make correct decisions. And he referenced the recent ruling that declared his inflationary tariffs unconstitutional. Does Trump think that insulting the Justices will secure their votes in his favor?

What’s more, Trump also blasted the notion of paying for citizenship. Which is peculiar because that’s actually a policy that he introduced with an executive order creating his “Trump Gold Card.” For a mere $5 million dollars, anyone can buy American citizenship, including drug traffickers, fraudulent business people, and foreign spies.

Insulting and threatening people as a means of getting them to support him is nothing new for Trump. He did the same thing recently while trying to get his so-called “Save America Act” (aka Voter Suppression Act) passed in Congress. He threatened his own Republicans saying that “I WILL NEVER (EVER!) ENDORSE ANYONE WHO VOTES AGAINST ‘SAVE AMERICA!!!” And he insulted members of both parties over the same issue.

That ought to do it. Who wouldn’t want to vote with Trump after that highly effective method of persuasion? Especially considering how popular he is with the American people right now.

UH-OH! Fox News Poll Spells DOOM for Trump and His MAGA Republicans in Congress

Posted by on March 27, 2026 at 1:55 pm. 0 Comments :

Less than a year and a half ago, Donald Trump managed to eke out a narrow victory and return to his occupation of the White House. And it didn’t take long for him to successfully sink the electoral prospects of his blindly obedient MAGA minions in what can now be called the Republican Cult.

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

Donald Trump, Fox News, White House

Trump’s agenda of imposing unlawful and inflationary tariffs that increased the cost of everything from groceries, to gasoline, to housing, to healthcare, and more, were just the beginning of his assault on the American people. He followed that up with deployments of his ICE StormTrumpers in U.S. cities. Then he decided to wage an unprovoked and illegal war against Iran. And all the while disgorging virulent hate speech intended to divide the American people.

SEE THIS: Trump Unleashes a Manic Tirade Attacking Those He Says are America’s Greatest Enemy – Democrats?

The first year of Trump’s second term could not have been more politically crippling if he had devised it deliberately to destroy the GOP. His approval ratings have broken through the basement floor and are heading toward the Earth’s burning core. And this isn’t the opinion of what he calls the “radical left lunatics” in the mainstream media. Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, just a released a poll that found him floundering.

Fox published their results in an article declaring that “Sour voters say Washington is out of touch.” That headline actually bails Trump out by suggesting that it it isn’t his fault that everything sucks. It’s those “sour” voters. But the rest of the article wasn’t as gentle.

The article began by noting that “Voters are not only dissatisfied with the direction of the country but also pessimistic about the economic outlook.” The poll found that “Nearly two-thirds, 64%, are dissatisfied [and] that’s the highest dissatisfaction rating of President Trump’s second term.” Then the article elaborated saying that…

“His worst numbers are on inflation, with a new low of 28% approving […] His 34% approval for the economy is another new low, down 6 points since January and 9 points from a year ago. Other ratings are also well underwater: healthcare (36% approve, 64% disapprove), Iran (36-64), taxes (36-64), foreign policy (38-62), and immigration (44-56).”

Trump is unlikely to be able to improve on any of that between now and the midterm elections in November. One important reason for that is that he isn’t even trying to. To the contrary, he is doubling down on his widely opposed domestic policies by insisting that everything is the best it’s ever been in the history of mankind. And he’s celebrating his war in Iran as a “little excursion” that he says he won in the first hour, three weeks ago. Which begs the question, why is he still fighting, and even escalating, with thousands of troops being deployed to the Middle East, and requests for $200 billion more in funding?

It’s tempting to muse that, with regard to Trump, “When you’ve lost Fox News…” But Trump has never been satisfied with the polling by Fox. He frequently goes on the network to whine about their polls that sometimes put him in a negative light. But Fox News remains his mass media mouthpiece. And polls like these will rarely turn up on the primetime shows that Trump watches. So most of his cult followers will never see these numbers. However, here’s an example that snuck through during a daytime program…

Fox News may be accepting the reality that Trump is a mentally impaired loser whose star is fading. More likely, they realize that their audience is already aware of how dismal their lives are without Fox or Trump trying to persuade them that they are prosperous and happy. In any event, expect Trump to chastise Fox for having the audacity to post these poll results. He will surely regard it as an act of betrayal, and he might even sic his FCC boss on them with impotent threats of revoking their licenses (that don’t exist).

Trump Says He’s Dealing with Terrorists in Iran, But Refuses to Deal with Democrats in America

Posted by on March 23, 2026 at 1:45 pm. 0 Comments :

The war against Iran that Donald Trump said he won three weeks ago is still raging on. The Strait of Hormuz remains shutdown. Both sides are continuing to launch bombing raids. Trump is still seeking $200 billion more in Pentagon funding. Gas and oil prices are still rising. 2,400 Marines were just to deployed to the Middle East. And all for a war for which Trump has already declared victory.

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

Donald Trump WTF

Trump’s justification for continuing to fight has run the gamut from his lust for a genocidal solution, to his sociopathic desire to just have fun slaughtering people. He couldn’t care less about the welfare of American troops or Iranian civilians. Or for that matter, Americans here at home…

SEE THIS: Trump Says He Knows Where Iranian Sleeper Cells Are in the U.S. But He Isn’t Going After Them?

Trump recently pledged that he would escalate his bombing of Iran if they didn’t open up the Strait of Hormuz within 24 hours. But he is already backing off of that pledge with an announcement that he is engaging with Iran to formulate a peace agreement. He posted the following comment on his dedicated, for-profit propaganda platform, Truth Social, Monday morning…

“I AM PLEASE TO REPORT THAT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND THE COUNTRY OF IRAN, HAVE HAD, OVER THE LAST TWO DAYS, VERY GOOD AND PRODUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS REGARDING A COMPLETE AND TOTAL RESOLUTION OF OUR HOSTILITIES IN THE MIDDLE EAST.”

Trump offered no evidence of any actual discussions, or with whom they would be held, since he previously claimed to have killed all of their leaders. And Iran is denying that any discussions have taken place. As reported by The Hill…

“A senior Iranian security official on Monday said Tehran is not in talks with President Trump adding that Trump ‘backed down’ from further attacks on energy infrastructure due to pressure from the markets and allies.”

It’s difficult to decide who trust in this situation. Iran is not a particularly reliable source of information. But Trump is arguably even worse. Trump’s claim that he is having “VERY GOOD AND PRODUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS” comes in stark contrast to his prior statements regarding negotiations with his fellow Americans in Congress. While he is bragging that he is dealing with the terrorist regime in Iran, he is simultaneously refusing to deal with Democrats here at home…

“I don’t think we should make any deal with the Crazy, Country Destroying, Radical Left Democrats unless, and until, they Vote with Republicans to pass ‘THE SAVE AMERICA ACT.’ It is far more important than anything else we are doing in the Senate.”

Trump isn’t making any secret of whose side he is on. And it clearly isn’t the side of America or its people. He actually trusts Iran as a negotiating partner more. And he is happy to deal with the leaders of the country he is at war with, but not the leaders of his domestic political opposition that he maligns as “Crazy, Country Destroying, Radical Left Democrats.”

What’s more, Trump’s problem with Democrats is that they won’t agree to his “Voter Suppression Act,” that he has prioritized above everything else, including the war in Iran and the skyrocketing cost of living in the U.S. He is terrified of the likelihood that American voters are going to strip his MAGA Republicans from their congressional majorities in November, and that Democrats will hold him accountable for his crimes.

To Trump that means that Democrats are the real enemy to America. No, really. He literally said so yesterday…

Trump just literally declared WAR on at least half of the American people.Does he plan to start bombing Democrats? He's already trying to obstruct them from voting. Because he is TERRIFIED and knows that Democrats will hold him accountable for his crimes when they assume power.

Trump PR Flack, Karoline Leavitt, Embraces Poll that Proves MAGA is a Cult that Worships Trump

Posted by on March 18, 2026 at 2:35 pm. 0 Comments :

With the 2026 midterm elections rapidly approaching, it is becoming more evident that Donald Trump and his MAGA Republican Party in Congress are likely to suffer a bitter defeat, losing majorities in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. Should that happen Trump would become the lamest of ducks to finish off his remaining two years in the White House.

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

Donald Trump and Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt

Consequently, Trump is pulling out all the stops to get Congress to pass his so-called “Save America Act” (aka “Save Trump Act,” aka “Voter Suppression Act”) He has been posting a flurry of desperate comments on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, in the hopes of staving off the inevitable political drubbing that many analysts are predicting.

SEE THIS: IN A PANIC Trump Threatens GOP to Pass His Anti-Voting Act, Because His ‘Reasons’ Are Pure BS

Among Trump’s online pleadings is one that declares that this bill is a priority that must be passed “at the expense of everything else.” So he is placing it above his war in Iran, the affordability crisis caused by his tariffs, his hunting of immigrants, his vanity ballroom, the Epstein files, and his persecution of the media that he recently accused of “treason.”

On Wednesday morning Trump’s Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, sought to promote how beloved her Dear Leader Trump is. So she posted a video clip of CNN’s Harry Enten reporting the results of a new poll. The subject of the survey was the approval of Trump by his MAGA followers. Which reached levels that North Korea’s Kim Jong Un could only dream of…

Enten: Sometimes you look at the polling data and there are numbers that jump off the screen at you. And this is one of those. Because just take a look here. MAGA GOP view of Trump, approve is 100%. If you are a member of MAGA in the GOP, you approve of Donald John Trump.”

That’s right! The hive-mind uniformity of the MAGA movement is at peak deification. Not that that is anything to worry about. Because according to a recent Economist/YouGov poll “only 27 percent of all voters described themselves as ‘MAGA supporters’ and a perhaps surprisingly low 54 percent of Trump voters so identified.” So MAGA is a small minority of the general public, and only barely half of the Republican base. Yeah, that’s too many. But it shouldn’t be enough to wield any power, assuming fair elections are held.

Nevertheless, these numbers thrilled Trump’s press liar, Leavitt. So she proudly posted them on her Twitter/X account to pass on what she thinks is great news. However, the only thing that these numbers prove is that MAGA is a more nefarious disseminator of BS propaganda than North Korea.

There is only one way numbers could be that ridiculously homogeneous. And it’s what many people have been saying about MAGA for years: IT’S A CULT! Polling of all voters reveals that Trump is at record lows. Undeterred by reality, the cult’s spokeswoman is actually celebrating the thoroughness of the brainwashing and the unquestioning fealty that membership in the MAGA cult requires.

UPDATE: Trump himself cited the CNN poll and likewise lied about it by pretending that it represented all voters, rather than just his MAGA cult.

IN A PANIC Trump Threatens GOP to Pass His Anti-Voting Act, Because His ‘Reasons’ Are Pure BS

Posted by on March 17, 2026 at 1:35 pm. 2 Comments :

For several weeks Donald Trump has been fixated on passing what he calls the “Save America Act.” He has elevated it to a position of top priority, declaring that it must be passed “at the expense of everything else.” He even declared that he will sign no other legislation until after this bill is passed by Congress and put on his desk for signature.

Donald Trump Circling the Drain

Trump’s obsession with his Voter Suppression Act is based entirely on his fear that Republicans are going to be brutally beaten in the upcoming midterm elections. He knows that such an electoral defeat would make him even more pathetically impotent than he is currently. And he views any challenge to what he sees as his divine right of MAGA-sty as intolerable and must be prohibited.

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

In the past week Trump has posted several comments on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, demanding that his Republican toadies in Congress obey his authority and pass the anti-voting bill. And not because he wants fair elections. To the contrary, he’s been openly pitching that the bill would result in Republicans never losing for the next 50 years.

On Tuesday morning he leveled his most hostile commands to date. In his familiar hyperbolic rage Trump called the bill “one of the most IMPORTANT & CONSEQUENTIAL pieces of legislation in the history of Congress, and America itself.” He lied that voting by mail is “rigged” and that “We are the only Country in the World that allows” mail-in voting. At least 30 other countries do. Then he elaborated saying that…

“Only sick, demented, or deranged people in the House or Senate could vote against THE SAVE AMERICA ACT. If they do, each one of these points, separately, will be used against the user in his/her political campaign for office – A guaranteed loss! […] I WILL NEVER (EVER!) ENDORSE ANYONE WHO VOTES AGAINST ‘SAVE AMERICA!!!'”

OMG! Not THAT! Trump is threatening to withhold his precious endorsement from any Republicans who defy his will. It’s notable that he needs to resort to threats, because his powers of persuasion suck. And he has no credible arguments to convince anyone that the bill has real merit.

However, given his current abysmal standings in the polls, his endorsement is what is more likely to result in “a guaranteed loss.” Not to mention the unpopularity of the bill itself. Which is why Republicans in the Senate are leaning against voting for the bill in the first place. For the record, this isn’t the first time Trump has bellowed out this sort of threat. Last week he unleashed this bit of fascist theory wherein he insists that “anybody who votes against The Save America Act should not be allowed to run for public office.”

There is virtually no chance of Trump’s Voter Suppression bill passing in the Senate. It would require 60 votes, and there are only 53 Republican senators. Democrats are united in opposition. So Trump is spinning his wheels with no possible hope for victory. Plus, he will end up having to revoke his endorsement for a few Republicans who vote against the bill. That is if he keeps his word, which is not something he is known for.

Trump Just Posted the Real Reason that He Started a War with Iran, and It’s Truly Insane

Posted by on February 28, 2026 at 2:03 pm. 1 Comments :

When Donald Trump was running to reoccupy the White House in 2024, he made his promise not to start any new wars a key component of his campaign. He folded it into his otherwise vacant sloganeering to put “America First.” Which, by the way, was a slogan that he stole from early 20th century American fascists.

Donald Trump

Undeterred by his own campaign pledge, Trump has now started a new war with Iran. He launched his war without seeking the consent of Congress, which he is required to do under Article I, Section 8, Clause 11 of the Constitution. You know, that legal thingy that Trump prefers to ignore. He also failed to provide any rational justification for the military action, other than a dubious claim of “imminent threat” for which he offered no factual basis. Not that he ever cared about facts for anything.

After already deploying airstrikes on Iranian targets, Trump posted a staged video on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, wherein he sought to explain why he broke the law and declared war on Iran. However, his explanation was a far cry from anything that could be described as coherent, or reasonable. Rather, it was an eight minute long rant about Iran being evil and his gloriousness in massacring a lot of innocent Iranians to achieve his tyrannical ends.

It wasn’t until many hours later that he provided what appears to be his real motivation for the warmongering. It came in another Truth Social posting that linked to an article in the far right Internet rag, “Just the News,” with the headline “Iran tried to interfere in 2020, 2024 elections to stop Trump, and now faces renewed war with United States.”

After bombing Iran without any justification or explanation to the American people – or the world – Trump posts this lie as his reason for doing it…

The actual article never presented a single fact that validated the headline. It was just a tediously long collection of innuendos and allegations by Trump flunkies. However, Trump posting this suggests that the actual reason that he went to war with Iran was because he is holding a grudge over what he believes was Iran’s attempts to harm his presidential prospects.

That would be in keeping with Trump’s still smoldering outrage over the 2020 election that he continues to lie was “rigged and stolen” from him by nefarious Democrats and their comrades in the fake news. Ever since he returned to power he has been persecuting those who he claims were responsible for his humiliating loss. Now he’s adding Iran to the cabal of conspirators who, in his pathological paranoia, he thinks were plotting against him. And of course, he has no evidence to support any of this nonsense.

Accusing Iran of interfering with the 2020 election (and 2024 too) is typical Trump. And it is no stretch to assume that he would take revenge on them if given the opportunity. At the same time, he has persistently excused Russia and his pal Vladimir Putin for actually interfering with those elections with documented proof of it.

Which just goes to show that Trump doesn’t need trivialities like proof, or rationality, or even sanity, to embrace the conspiracy theories that serve his interests. And if his interest is vengeance, then he will find a way to justify it to himself.

Although, there could be an entirely different reason for Trump starting this war with Iran. It could be another deflection on his part from his other scandals. For instance, his dreadful economy that is causing millions of Americans to suffer, and his unsavory relationship with child sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein. Is Trump just employing the old “wag the dog” tactic?

CORRECTION: Trump's Department of War spelled "Epstein" wrong.This is the real reason that Trump started a war with Iran. Also, he needed to justify renaming the Department of Defense.

SO MUCH WINNING? Trump’s State of the Union Ratings Ranks Near the Bottom for the Past 25 Years

Posted by on February 26, 2026 at 1:18 pm. 0 Comments :

On Tuesday Donald Trump delivered what many are saying was the most unhinged, hostile, and lie-riddled State of the Union address (SOTU) that he – or anyone – has ever given. It was, therefore, a typical display of his acutely warped persona that is permanently set to eleven on the scale of presidential derangement.

Donald Trump Walking the Plank

Trump may have regarded this exercise in self-aggrandizement, infantile insults, and flagrant dishonesty, to be his best opportunity to reverse the downward trending of his presidency. Most polls show him at record lows for approval, and he is surely being eaten up by the fact that he is even trailing his arch nemesis, Joe Biden.

Now another metric of success that Trump regards as the most important of all is flashing bright red signals of disaster. His television ratings for the speech have come in near the bottom for all SOTU speeches for the past 25 years. According to the Hollywood Reporter…

“Trump’s 107-minute speech (the longest on record) drew about 27.8 million viewers across the seven most watched broadcast and cable outlets: ABC, CBS, CNN, Fox News, the Fox broadcast network, MS Now and NBC. That’s down by about 12 percent from 31.45 million viewers for those same networks for Trump’s address to Congress last year. […] Fox News led the way with 9.1 million viewers.”

The only years where Trump was not dead last were one for Biden in 2021 during COVID, and another for Biden in 2023 when inflation hit its peak at about 8%. Note that inflation at that time was higher worldwide than in the U.S., and that Biden brought it down to about 3% before his term ended. Whereupon his last SOTU rebounded to be higher than Trump again. Here are the numbers…

  • 2026 (Trump): 27.8 million*
  • 2025 (Trump): 31.45 million#
  • 2024 (Biden): 32.2 million
  • 2023 (Biden): 27.3 million
  • 2022 (Biden): 38.2 million*
  • 2021 (Biden): 26.9 million#
  • 2020 (Trump): 37.2 million
  • 2019 (Trump): 46.8 million
  • 2018 (Trump): 45.6 million*
  • 2017 (Trump): 47.7 million#
  • 2016 (Obama): 31.3 million
  • 2015: (Obama): 31.7 million
  • 2014: (Obama): 33.3 million*
  • 2013: (Obama): 33.5 million
  • 2012: (Obama): 37.8 million
  • 2011: (Obama): 42.8 million
  • 2010: (Obama): 48. million*
  • 2009: (Obama): 52.4 million#
  • 2008: (Bush): 37.5 million
  • 2007: (Bush): 45.5 million
  • 2006: (Bush): 41.7 million*
  • 2005: (Bush): 38.4 million
  • 2004: (Bush): 43.4 million
  • 2003: (Bush): 62.1 million
  • # Joint Session of Congress
  • * Ratings for a speech preceding a midterm election like the current one.

Given Trump’s sub-par performance, both with ratings and the substance of his speech, it is highly unlikely that it will have any positive impact on the upcoming midterm elections. Although some negative impact could be felt. And the post-speech surveys bear that out…

If Trump thinks that his lie-riddled, hostile State of the Union speech is going to boost his approval ratings, he is gonna be sorely disappointed. Followed by a massive meltdown and more totalitarian raving.CNN poll: "This was actually his least well-received speech."

For those of you who missed, or more likely deliberately avoided, the speech, Jimmy Kimmel has helpfully provided a summary version of it that should be all anyone would need. His “State of the Union in 60 Seconds” includes Trump insisting that there has just been “too much winning.” Which is not validated by the polls or ratings. We also see him shouting at the Democrats in the chamber that “These people are crazy.” It’s rather bizarre to see Trump heckling Democrats from the podium, while he whines about being heckled from the audience.

In conclusion, it’s safe to say that Republicans are headed for a massive blowout in November. Although, don’t let that make you work less diligently to topple Trump and his MAGA Republicans. If Democrats and other patriots stay committed, the result will be, in technical terms, that “TRUMP IS TOAST!” And America – and the world – will be all the better for it.
