Trump Totally Humiliated Himself – And America – 3 Times (at Least) at the G7 Summit in France

The walking pile of puerile perversity that we know as Donald Trump has once again demonstrated how grossly distant he is from any semblance of civil conduct. Trump’s massive yet fragile ego drives everything he does or says. And it’s particularly disturbing when he does it on foreign soil.

Donald Trump

Just before gallivanting off Evian, France, Trump threw himself an 80th birthday bash at the White House with a show of sweaty, half-naked men wrestling in a giant cage. Just the sort of thing that exudes the dignity and honor of the presidential residence. And Trump made certain to offer his own personal expressions of honor…

SEE THIS: Trump Goes Off on a Racist Rant Shortly After His White-Trashing of the White House and America

The next day Trump boarded Air Force One to jet off to France for the annual G7 summit with the leaders of the world’s wealthiest, most highly industrialized democracies. And while there he comported himself in exactly the manner that you would expect of a vulgarian with no diplomatic sensibilities whatsoever. What follows are three notable examples of how Trump embarrasses America every time he opens his mouth. And representing our nation on the world stage doesn’t seem to temper his grotesquery.

TRUMP THREATENS TO NUKE SOME NUCLEAR ARMED NATIONS
“Whoever sells them [Iran] a nuclear weapon will get nuked themselves, if they sold a nuclear weapon, only a few that could do it, they would be nuked. They wouldn’t have that country long.”
REALLY? So Trump is threatening to nuke Russia, or China, or North Korea, or maybe France? Does he think that they wouldn’t defend themselves by nuking the U.S. right back? Does he think at all?

TRUMP THANKS XI JINPING AND VLADIMIR PUTIN FOR BEING NEUTRAL
“I want to thank China and President XI. I was with him, and he stayed neutral, totally neutral, and I appreciate it. And I would want to thank Vladimir Putin. He was very neutral. They could have made it much more difficult for us.”
For the record, Iran did receive military technology, drones, and missile components from China. And Russia shared intelligence that actually helped Iran to locate and kill U.S. forces. Both countries propped up the Iranian economy by purchasing discounted Iranian oil. So thanks, from your fanboy Trump.

TRUMP DISPARAGES AMERICAN DEMOCRACY
“Nobody plays rougher than the United States. Look, our elections are totally rigged. We have rigged elections.”
So Trump currently presides over an all-Republican government with GOP majorities in Congress and the Supreme Court, but still chastises the U.S. for having “rigged” elections? Maybe he’s right. If our elections were free and fair there would be more political diversity. The Electoral College and the Senate representation is anything but fair.

Also, Trump complains about his buddy, former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro, being convicted for plotting a military coup after the 2022 election. But Trump ignores his own persecution of Democrats like Gov. Gavin Newsom, Senators Mark Kelly, Elissa Slotkin, Adam Schiff, etc., New York Attorney General Letitia James, former FBI Director James Comey, and many more.

Also notable is a Trump post at 2:50am on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. He endorsed MAGA GOP Rep. Mike Collins for the Senate in Georgia, but had little to say about Collins. However, he calls his Democratic opponent, current Sen. Jon Osoff, “Os(jerk)off.” That’s Trump always staying classy and setting a standard for America’s kids.

This Trump comment illustrates just how unfit he is for any office.He thinks he's clever with his infantile nicknames, calling Sen. Jon Osoff "Os(jerk)off." What a great role model for America's children.However, Democrats will welcome him to Georgia to campaign for Collins. Come often, Donnie.

WOW! Secretary of War Crimes Pete Hegseth Admits Trump’s Iran Deal Gets Nothing that Obama Didn’t Get

The political and PR tug of war between Donald Trump and Iran is continuing to strain relations without making any observable progress. On Saturday Trump posted a comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, declaring that an alleged “peace” deal would be signed Sunday (today). [SEE UPDATE BELOW on report of an alleged deal being reached – but no signing today]

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

Barack Obama and Donald Trump

The full comment that Trump posted was flagrantly dishonest and downright bizarre at levels never seen before (as he might put it). He insulted President Obama, misrepresented the deals by both Obama and himself, invented imaginary scenarios of future relations with Iran, and even threatened nuclear war. No, really…

SEE THIS: Trump Posts an Absolutely BONKERS Comment on His Fake ‘Peace’ Deal with Iran

On Sunday morning Trump’s Secretary of War Crimes, Pete Hegseth, was interviewed on CBS News’ Face the Nation by Margaret Brennan. During their discussion Hegseth admitted something that totally contradicts what Trump has been lying about for years with regard to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) negotiated by the Obama administration to halt Iran’s nuclear aspirations.

Hegseth: Obama begged Iran for a deal. We bombed Iran, and then put in a blockade…The document says Iran will never have a nuclear weapon, won’t seek one, won’t buy one, won’t have one.
Brennan: JCPOA said that too.
Hegseth: But they didn’t have the threat of military force the way that we do…and that’s why they’re at the table. The huge difference is we did this from a position of strength. Trump led with military might.

Trump's Secretary of War Crimes, Pete Hegseth, admits Obama got Iran to agree to never have nuclear weapons (which Trump denies and lies about).Then Hegseth said the difference is Trump did it with military force (costing billions and killing thousands), while Obama did it through diplomacy.

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-06-14T16:16:30.812Z

So Hegseth is actually conceding that the Obama deal secured Iran’s commitment to cease all of their nuclear weapons programs. That’s something that Trump has repeatedly said wasn’t true. Never mind that the very first paragraph of the JCPOA says that “Iran reaffirms that under no circumstances will Iran ever seek, develop or acquire any nuclear weapons.”

What Hegseth describes as the difference between the confirmed Obama deal and Trump’s more ambiguous and non-binding “Memorandum of Understanding” (MOU) is that Trump’s deal was obtained by military force and hyperbolic threats that TACO Trump kept reneging on. By contrast, Obama’s deal was secured through diplomacy, carried out by experienced negotiators, and verified by the independent International Atomic Energy Agency. None of which Trump’s team accomplished.

Hegseth implies that Trump’s hawkish warmongering is superior to Obama’s statesmanship, despite the fact that Obama got tangible results without spending billions of dollars and slaughtering thousands of innocent people. However, there are still no results whatsoever from Trump’s dealings after four months of a war that Trump said wouldn’t take more than a few days.

Meanwhile, Trump’s Homeland Security secretary, Markwayne Mullin, was also on the Sunday morning media circuit, On Fox News he praised Trump because “On his birthday he’s still working.” Then he specifies what Trump is “working” on. Was it the Iran deal that was supposed to be signed imminently? Or lowering costs for gas, groceries, housing, or healthcare? Or anything else that the American people actually want or need?

Nope. It’s his tacky and corrupt UFC birthday bash on the White House lawn. Because Trump’s priorities are squarely focused on what is most important – To him, and him alone!

UPDATE: According to Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in a comment posted on Twitter/X, “The Peace Deal between the United States of America and Islamic Republic of Iran has been REACHED.” and that “The official signing ceremony will be on Friday, 19 June.” So there is no signing Sunday as Trump said, and a lot can change in a week. So nobody should be confident that this will pan out.

Also, while Trump posted a giddy, celebratory confirmation on Truth Social, there is no confirmation from Iran, and no details on the terms of the deal or whether it is a binding agreement or just an MOU. Also, nothing indicates that the deal contains anything that wasn’t already in the Obama deal. But reports say that Iran will get billions more from Trump, including $300 billion in recovery/reconstruction funds, and have less stringent restrictions and monitoring.

Trump Posts an Absolutely BONKERS Comment on His Fake ‘Peace’ Deal with Iran

America is now in the fourth month of the war with Iran that Donald Trump said would only last a few days. Instead what Trump has called a “little excursion” has cost billions of dollars, thousands of lives, and the reputation of the United States as a diplomatic superpower.

Trump baby with Iran map

Throughout the conflict Trump has made repeated promises that a deal to end the war was imminent. Those promises were quickly broken when Iran disputed that any agreement was made, followed by Trump issuing more threats that amounted to war crimes and blaming the breakdown on everything from Iran’s “dishonorable” leaders, to “radical lunatic” Democrats, to former Presidents Joe Biden and Barack Obama.

SEE THIS: BREAKING? The Iran War Will End in ‘Days’ According to Trump, Who Has Been Saying that for Months

On Saturday morning Trump took time off from planning his 80th birthday bash on the lawn of the White House with a bunch of sweaty, half naked UFC fighters, brutally beating each other, to post a comment that put his derangement on display on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, about yet another alleged “peace” deal with Iran. His comment was typically littered with lies, self-exaltations, and derogatory remarks about his political foes. What follows are a few choice excerpts with annotations. Trump began by saying that…

“Barack Hussein Obama’s Deal with Iran, the JCPOA, was an easy, beautiful, smooth road to a Nuclear Weapon.”
Actually, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) states explicitly in the first paragraph that “Iran reaffirms that under no circumstances will Iran ever seek, develop or acquire any nuclear weapons.” And that prohibition would be monitored and enforced by the independent International Atomic Energy Agency.

“My Agreement with Iran is the exact opposite.”
First of all, there is no agreement at this time. What Trump is talking about is just a “Memorandum of Understanding” that proposes a 60 day ceasefire to continue talks in the future. It is not in any way binding and has no independent verification. Nevertheless, Trump added the preposterous claim that “they [Iran] no longer want a Nuclear Weapon.” Yeah, right.

“The Deal is scheduled to get signed tomorrow.”
Of course it is. And since we have Trump’s word on this we can rest assured that it is likely not going to happen. But even if it does, it is still only a non-binding document of future intent. Still, Trump bragged that “after it is signed, the Hormuz Strait is OPEN TO ALL>” Well, it was open to all before he started this war. So he’s admitting that there has been nothing gained.

“Unlike Obama’s Hundreds of Billions of Dollars in payments to them…no money will exchange hands.”
Once again, Trump is lying about Obama’s plan making payments of “Hundreds of Billions of Dollars” to Iran. Iran got less than $2 billion. And that was just the unfreezing of Iran’s own money that was being held in foreign banks. More importantly, Trump is lying about his own plan that calls for unfreezing $24 billion in Iranian funds, as well as an additional “$300 billion in reconstruction money.”

“[W]e have the ultimate alternative, hopefully never to be used again!”
This is how Trump closed his comment. It sounds very much like a threat to use nuclear weapons against Iran. Which is a lousy way to advance his alleged signing of a peace deal.

Usually Trump says that whatever bullshit promise he is making will be fulfilled in two weeks. So it’s good news of sorts that we will only have to wait until tomorrow to see if he welches on this one. But even if there is a signing of some paper promise, Trump will still have 60 days to screw it up. Which is way more than he needs.

YEAH, SURE! Trump Tells Fox News He Spoke with Iranian Officials Who Love the Great Press They Get

The increasingly bad news for Donald Trump continues to spill out as his reckless and illegal war with Iran spirals out of control. In the past 24 hours Trump has whined that Iran isn’t capitulating quickly enough, but also that he has secured a complete peace agreement with Iran wherein the U.S. is getting everything it wants. They can’t both be true.

Donald Trump, Insane, Straight Jacket

Even worse, the dementia of Trump is springing up with ever more frequency with each passing day. In addition to his routine dissemination of flagrant falsehoods and infantile insults, Trump is also having imaginary conversations that he relays to his official Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News. And Fox dutifully reports whatever Trump says without question.

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

On Thursday morning Trump did another one of his pajama phone-in interviews with the “Curvy Couch” potatoes of Fox and Friends. during their discussion Trump revealed some juicy details of an alleged phone call he had with unnamed Iranian “officials.” Trump said that…

“Behind the scenes I will tell you – they won’t even dispute it, although they probably would because it makes sense – They’re very good at publicity, but they’re not good at fighting. They can’t believe the press they get. They can’t even believe it. And they told me. They said, ‘It’s amazing how well we’re doing in the papers.’ We’re not doing so well. They’re negotiating with us to make a deal.”

Trump: "Behind the scenes I must tell you Iran can't believe the press they get. They can't even believe it. And they told me. They said, 'It's amazing how well we're doing in the papers. We're not doing so well–' They're negotiating with us to make a deal."

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-06-11T13:03:32.090Z

Virtually every conversation that Trump claims to have had with Iran was promptly disputed shortly after Trump made the claim. This one is unlikely to be any different. Why would Iran ever consider bragging to Trump about getting good press coverage? Where exactly is that coverage? And notice that Trump says in the same breath that Iran would not dispute it, and also that they would. Which point is trying to make?

Furthermore, Trump praises Iran’s PR prowess, but disparages their fighting ability. Even though Iran has held off Trump’s assault for four months now, when he said that this war would be over in a matter of days. And while the war is broadly opposed by huge majorities of the American people – dragging down Trump’s approval ratings and the Republican Party’s electoral prospects – Trump can’t seem to figure out any way to get out of it.

Earlier Trump claimed to have “dropped $250 million of bombs” on Iran (a number that he plucked from his demented brain that is fixated on his U.S. birthday bash). So while the American people are struggling financially, Trump is wasting hundreds of millions of dollars for no benefit. he could have built another ballroom for that.

Trump also said that Iranians had called him in the White House Situation Room last night asking him to stop the bombing (that hadn’t started yet). However, cell phones are strictly prohibited in the Situation Room. So that was another imaginary conversation.

Closing up the interview, Fox News host Ainsley Earhardt told Trump not to worry because “Our viewers are watching Fox. So they see this coverage. They’re not reading the New York Times “ Which is an unusually honest appraisal of the Fox News audience that is deeply indoctrinated into the Trump cult and oblivious to any other source of information. Especially information that is truthful and aligned with reality. It was nice of Earhardt to admit that.

WHUT? MAGA Mike Johnson Says that No Proof of Election Rigging is Proof the Election Was Rigged

Donald Trump and his MAGA Republican flunkies are totally discombobulated by the fact that Democrats are leading in the elections in California. They simply cannot understand how Democratic candidates could be favored in the most Democratic state in America. Someone call the Waaahmbulance.

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

Donald Trump, Congress, Mike Johnson

The GOP and their Dear Leader think that if a Republican who is a former Fox News hack, and another who is a reality TV goofball, are not winning, there must be something terribly wrong. It’s become a mantra that the MAGA-tists chant every time an election doesn’t go their way. And they go back and forth between seething outrage and flaccid apathy.

SEE THIS: MAGA Mike Johnson Pitifully Tries to Cover For Trump Saying ‘I Don’t Care About the Midterms’

Leading the charge to declare all election outcomes phony if Republicans don’t win, is the GOP Speaker of the House of Representatives, MAGA Mike Johnson. And he is employing some novel arguments to make his case. In an exchange with CNN’s congressional correspondent, Manu Raju, Johnson shamelessly floated the theory that the absence of factual evidence of wrongdoing is proof that wrongdoing took place. When asked about the whether he though the California electins were rigged, Johnson whined that…

Johnson: I’m not saying it’s rigged. I’m saying it stinks to high heaven, and everybody knows that. Let’s remove the appearance of impropriety. What a concept. Let’s have votes on an election the day of the election. That’s what many states are able to do. I think California is playing around with us.
Raju: But what evidence is there to prove that the election was rigged?
Johnson: Some of these efforts are so diabolical and so far upstream, it is impossible to prove. But I think everybody knows instinctively something is wrong here, and that’s a concern. We need people to believe in the integrity of our election system.

Let’s unravel Johnson’s flaming bullshittery. To begin with he denies saying that the election is rigged, only that it stinks. What exactly is his point? Then he complains that the election results aren’t finalized on election day. Which is common in states that have mail-in voting, including Johnson’s state of Louisiana.

More to the point, Johnson’s contention that Democrats have engaged in something so “diabolical” that “it is impossible to prove” any wrongdoing. And he claims that the absence of such proof is therefore proof in itself of wrongdoing. He thinks that Democrats are so good at covering up their schemes that the schemes must have taken place. By that logic, Johnson is actually the Zodiac Killer. And the proof is that there isn’t any evidence of it. So he must have been really good at covering it up.

Johnson went on to claim that “everybody knows instinctively something is wrong.” And as an experienced lawmaker and leader of his party, Johnson knows that “instinct” is the criteria on which legal rulings are based. Who needs facts or evidence when you have strong feelings? Did the defendant murder his wife? I feel like he did, so send him to the gas chamber. Case closed.

That’s the level of intellectual scrutiny that Republicans give to election integrity. It’s a bar that was placed extraordinarily low by their Dear Leader Trump. And Johnson is very concerned about people believing in the integrity of our election system. Which is why he and Trump do nothing but trash the system every chance they get, without even a shred of evidence. That will instill the confidence he claims to crave, right? Right? RIGHT?

Clearly the Trump regime couldn’t care less about election integrity. To the contrary they are focused solely on creating skepticism and division. They know they can’t win elections on the merits of their policies and competence. So their only remaining option is make as many people as possible doubt that the elections are legitimate.

Hence their fixation on declaring that is everything rigged, despite never providing any proof. And now that absence of proof, in their minds, is its own proof that it’s all rigged. What a brilliantly asinine strategy to undermine democracy.

REALLY? Trump’s Source for ‘Tremendous Evidence’ of Election Fraud is MyPillow Kook Mike Lindell?

Americans have lately been troubled by the frequent cognitive glitches of the current occupant of the White House, Donald Trump. But never let it be said that Trump is incapable of focusing on a subject that he deems important when he wants to. Sometimes for weeks, months, years, longer than anyone else would consider reasonable or sane. Trump’s capacity to concentrate intensely on nonsense that advances his delusions is unparalleled in modern times.

Donald Trump, Mike Lindell, MyPillow

On Sunday Trump was interviewed by Kristen Welker on Meet the Press. He was profoundly unhinged throughout the interview. But he was particularly consumed by his years-long obsession with imaginary election fraud in 2020, and with equally ridiculous claims regarding California’s recent primary. Welker repeatedly challenged Trump, saying that he had never presented any supporting evidence of his wild allegations. Which caused Trump to wig out and shuffle off in huff.

SEE THIS: Big Baby Trump Flees Like a Frightened Fowl From Scary Meet the Press Host Kristen Welker

Then, on Sunday night, Trump dropped a post on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, attempting to shore up his baseless claims that “there is tremendous evidence” of election fraud. But his “evidence” was a re-post by Patrick Colbeck, CEO of Lindell Management, a company created by MyPillow conspiracy crackpot, Mike Lindell, to spread election fraud lies.

Colbeck linked to “evidence” compiled by Lindell’s widely debunked “Election Crime Bureau” website. He claimed that “We have over 800 findings in support of President Trump of which over 550 are ESTABLISHED FACT.” None of which were actually factual, and certainly not established. His “findings” were just rumors and fabrications that were proven false every time they were reviewed by independent analysts or contested in court.

In fact, Lindell was actually found liable for defamation in a lawsuit brought by the election technology company, Smartmatic. He was also found liable for defamation in a separate lawsuit brought by an employee of Dominion Voting Systems. And if that weren’t enough, he was investigated by the FBI for sending misleading emails that sought to acquire sensitive, private data from election officials.

Lindell’s operation tried unsuccessfully to push his fraud conspiracy theories for years with a circus-like “Cyber Symposium” and bold declarations that he had incontrovertible proof of fraud, none of which ever panned out. What’s more, there were more than 60 civil cases that alleged election fraud in the years following Trump’s humiliating loss in 2020. Not a single one of them found any shred of fraud.

However, none of that has deterred Trump from continuing to push his “Big Lie” that the election was “rigged and stolen” from him. And he’s still clinging to the preposterous fables crafted by Lindell. Trump’s stubbornness even resulted in his posting a shocking confession about the state of elections in America today. He proudly declares that…

“I believe we have the Most Dishonest Elections of any Country, anywhere in the World!”

USA. USA. USA. WE’RE NUMBER ONE! Even more dishonest than Russia, or Hungary, or North Korea. They’re all losers compared to what Trump has done to America.

This is quite a confession from the current president of the United States who won two elections.It sounds like he's bragging, and signaling his intentions for future elections.TRUMP: "I'm the Most Dishonest by far, and better at being Dishonest at levels never seen before."

Big Baby Trump Flees Like a Frightened Fowl From Scary Meet the Press Host Kristen Welker

Donald Trump has worked hard for years to craft an image of himself as a pillar of strength and a manly man. Of course, only desperately insecure man-babies feel compelled to do that. And Trump fits that profile perfectly.

Trump Fear

For as long as he has been in the public eye, Trump has played the victim and reacted with abject cowardice to any perceived threat. What’s truly amazing is that anyone views him as anything other than the whiny toddler that he personifies.

SEE THIS: Victim-in-Chief: Trump is the most Cowardly, Whining, Crybaby to Ever Be President

On Sunday morning Trump proved once again that he doesn’t have the courage to stand up to even the most mild dissent. He was interviewed by Kristen Welker on Meet the Press (video below), and he spent the whole time complaining, interrupting, insulting, and of course, lying. The interview was a monumental waste of time for anyone seeking something newsworthy. But for those who just wanted some more proof of how utterly unfit Trump is for any office of leadership, it was a bonanza of examples of his mental impairment and emotional instability.

Leading off, Welker brought up Trump’s “weaponization” slush fund to reward violent January 6th StormTrumpers. There was such broad agreement that the fund was illegal and immoral that Trump’s acting Attorney Genuflect, Todd Blanche, had already told Congress that he wouldn’t be implementing it. However, his reputation is so tainted that nobody believes him. So Welker asked Trump…

“Are you backing off the fund completely as your acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has said, or are you looking for another avenue to revive the fund?”

Trump dodged the question to “explain” the purpose of the slush fund, which no one asked him. He said that it was compensation for people who had been “hurt so badly by the radical left lunatics that worked for the Biden administration.” He eventually got around to an answer saying “Personally, I think the weaponization fund is a great idea…you have to get it approved.” Then he rambled some more, asserting that he wouldn’t rule out giving taxpayer money to convicted rioters who assaulted police officers. Just what taxpayers want.

Then Trump assumed the role of the rioters’ defense lawyer, arguing that they had been framed by “dirty cops” and FBI agents. When Welker replied that there is no evidence of that, Trump told her to “look at the tapes,” Which everyone has done many times and found nothing that exonerated the rioters. Welker noted that many of the rioters had pleaded guilty. So Trump claimed that they were bullied into doing so. Again, it was a claim with no evidence. So next Trump began insulting Welker personally. He said that…

“People like you, the fake dirty press – people like stupid Biden, he’s not smart enough to know what’s going on – they destroyed people. They sent people to jail who did nothing wrong.”

Welker again noted that there was no evidence of that. To which Trump delusionally replied “There’s a lot of evidence. Listen to me. There’s tremendous evidence. There’s nothing but evidence.” Welker then noted that “It’s not been presented in a court of a law.” In fact, every case associated with January 6th rioters produced nothing but confirmation of their guilt. Not a single one was acquitted or any conviction overturned on appeal. Pitifully lost, Trump then jumped to a completely different subject, saying that…

“The election was rigged. It was a dirty election. And it’s happening again right now in California…They’re cheating on the election.”

Again Welker asks him if he has any evidence of that. His reply is that “All you have to do is look.” At what? Trump’s answer, of course, isn’t evidence. He continued with a childish retort saying that “You’re crooked, and Meet the Press is crooked, and so is ABC, and CBS, and CNN.” And just to make sure that she understood, he added that “You’re either crooked, or you’re stupid.”

Trump then cut off the interview saying “Sorry. Let’s call it quits because I’ve had enough. Thank you, darling. Have a good time.” That was Trump’s way of fleeing danger, because he saw that Welker wasn’t going to allow him to get away with his standard bullshittery. And he threw in a bit of misogynistic hate-speech for fun.

Anyone watching this with an open mind can see that Trump is scared and desperate to find a way out of this torment. But the only thing he can think of is to scamper off to the safety that his staff of devoted cult disciples provides.

The entire morning achieved nothing for Trump. But it did give his critics more proof of his acutely damaged psyche. The best that Trump can take away from this is that at least he didn’t fall asleep during the interview.

HUH? Trump Now Says His Weaponization Fund Was to Compensate People Who Were Abused – By the Media?

It’s getting more difficult every day to keep track of the myriad explanations and excuses that Donald Trump dispenses to the press for whatever calamity happens to be gnawing at his rapidly decomposing brain matter. The problem with trying to comprehend Trump’s explosive diarhetoric is that he continuously alters it fit into his always evolving fantastical version of reality.

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

Donald Trump, CNN

For instance: Tariffs don’t impact American consumers. No, I’m removing some tariffs to help American consumers. And: My vanity ballroom won’t cost taxpayers a penny. No, the ballroom is going to cost a billion dollars for national security. And: I had nothing to do with canceling Stephen Colbert. No, I’ve taken out many bad political pundits including Stephen Colbert. And: We’re at war with Iran. No, the war is over. No, it wasn’t a war to begin with, it was an excursion. And now Trump is doing the same with his “weaponization” slush fund…

SEE THIS: DEMOCRATS: Claim Your Share From Trump’s $1.776 Billion ‘Anti-Weaponization’ Slush Fund

During a press avail at the White House on Thursday, Trump engaged in a brief exchange with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins. She asked him about his now abandoned slush fund, and he replied in the typically rude and flagrantly dishonest manner that has become his hallmark.

Collins: Just to clarify on what you were asked earlier, is the $1.8 billion DOJ fund dead or is it on hold?
Trump: It’s — I’d have to ask the lawyers, I don’t know. I know one thing: The weaponization fund, as far as I’m concerned was a beautiful thing. It was something I was — I didn’t make it, but I was — I heard that I thought that was the greatest thing because people like you…have abused our people so badly – Be quiet — have abused our people so badly and you should be ashamed of yourself. […] CNN does such false reporting, but now they have new ownership, so maybe it’ll straighten it out. I doubt it, but it’s hard to straighten garbage out. But CNN has abused and others have abused so badly.

WTF IS TRUMP TALKING ABOUT?He is not only being grossly disrespectful to Kaitlan Collins of CNN, he is saying that his illegal $1.8 billion "weaponization" fund was to compensate people who were abused by the media. That's a new one from the Demented One.

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-06-04T10:32:28.687Z

There is a lot to unravel in that stream of incoherence. First of all, Trump’s claim of ignorance – while on the surface is believable considering his cognitive dysfunction – in this case is ridiculous. He knows exactly what happened with the fund because he was responsible for it. And the lawyers to whom he refers are his lawyers.

More to the point, Trump is not only being grossly disrespectful (as usual) to Collins by dismissively ordering her to “be quiet,”, he is also saying that his illegal slush fund was intended to compensate the January 6th insurrectionists who he now says were abused by the media, rather than law enforcement and the prosecutors who held them accountable for their seditious crimes, many of whom pleaded guilty.

Trump’s original claim that his StormTrumpers were badly treated by law enforcement was preposterous on its face. Which is why he has dropped it under pressure from his own MAGA Republicans in Congress and the MAGA media. But this new assertion is even more bizarre. There is no legal justification for his attempting to use taxpayers dollars to compensate his criminal cult devotees for anything that was said about them by the media.

If Trump’s rioters really thought that they were abused by the media, they could seek compensation by filing defamation lawsuits on their own. But they would have to prove that the media lied with malice. And since there is zero chance that they could do that, they would promptly get laughed out of court.

Getting laughed out of court just happens to be the proper response to any litigation that Trump dredges up. Unfortunately, there are still a few of his flunkies in robes who willingly do his bidding. But that state of affairs won’t last forever. And before long the time come will come when he and his goon squad will be brought to justice.

MAGA Mike Johnson Pitifully Tries to Cover For Trump Saying ‘I Don’t Care About the Midterms’

The upcoming midterm elections portend to be a disaster of epic proportions for Donald Trump and his Republican Party. Trump’s approval ratings are at record lows, and generic political party polling shows Democrats with significant advantages over the MAGA-ified GOP.

Donald Trump and Mike Johnson

Making matters worse, Trump is proving to be his own worst enemy with every utterance emanating from his pathologically lying lips. Even under the best, most favorably rigged circumstances, Trump manages to dig himself ever deeper into a hole that he has no chance of climbing out of.

So what does his chief representative in Congress do to rescue him from a dire electoral fate? Well, during a Wednesday morning press briefing, Republican House Speaker, MAGA Mike Johnson, tried to sane-wash some of Trump’s demented babbling. Last week Trump was asked about how his fiasco in Iran might impact the midterms. Trump replied that

“[Iran] thought they were gonna out wait me. ‘We’ll out wait him. He’s got the midterms.’ I don’t care about the midterms.”

Trump: "I don't care about the midterms"

That’s a pretty clear statement that Trump isn’t bothered by the broad public disapproval of his handling of the Iran quagmire. True to form, he’s going to do whatever he wants without regard to what the American people want, or what’s best for the nation. When this came up at Johnson’s press briefing, it elicited the following exchange…

Question: Trump says he doesn’t care about the midterms. Do you think he’s focused enough on domestic policy?
Johnson: What he said there has been taken out of context and it’s so unfair. This president is more laser focused and more dialed in on domestic issues here in the homeland than any president in memory. He spends more time working on domestic issues in one day than Joe Biden did in four. That’s an objective fact.

REALLY? After Trump said that he doesn’t care about the midterms, Johnson makes excuses saying that Trump was “taken out of context,” and that he “spends more time on domestic issues.” On on the former, it’s hard to imagine a positive context for saying he doesn’t care. But on the latter, to be fair, he’s kind of right, depending on how you define domestic issues…

Suffice to say that Johnson didn’t help Trump with that nonsense reply. Trump’s domestic agenda has been nothing short of abysmal. The only thing that’s worse is his foreign agenda. But that didn’t stop Johnson and his House GOP lieutenants from making clowns of themselves. Notice the posters that he set up for the briefing. One of them asserts that while “Republicans are CUTTING YOUR TAXES, DEMOCRATS WERE TRANS-ING THE MICE (with $8.2 Billion of Your Tax Dollars).”

First of all, the “trans-ing the mice” reference is just as untrue as when Trump said it in a speech before Congress last year. He totally misunderstood a report on “transgenic” research on mice, which are genetic experiments done to study human illnesses, and have nothing to do with gender transitioning. And secondly, the only tax cutting that Trump has done was for corporations and the wealthy.

Johnson could have spared himself the trouble of covering for Trump’s asinine comments about not caring. Most Americans already know that he doesn’t care about them. He even said so on another occasion just last month when he defended his war against Iran and the economic harm it was doing here at home, saying that “I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation. I don’t think about anybody.” Yeah…We know.

WHAT 1ST AMENDMENT? Snowflake Trump Takes Credit For Canceling “DUMB” (With a B) Stephen Colbert

The tender sensitivities of Donald Trump, and his massive yet fragile ego, continue to shine through the facade of bombast and bullying that he likes to put forward. His macho image of himself – setting aside his affinity for The Village People and muscular MMA fighters – is as fake as his layers of orange pancake makeup and B-52 hairstyles.

Donald Trump, Constitution

Trump’s hyper-mushiness is often expressed by his lashing out at journalists and other media figures. It can be seen whenever he is asked a question he can’t answer and resorts to insulting the reporter as a means of dodging the question. And it’s particularly true with regard to comedians who wound his smug pride with ample servings of satire and well-deserved mockery.

SEE THIS: Trump Brags About Getting Fascist Control of the Media in Bonkers Truth Social Post

On Sunday night Trump unloaded yet another lambasting of his perceived enemies, both political and humorous. In a comment posted to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, Trump lauded himself for allegedly ending the careers of several of his archfoes, including Stephen Colbert. Trump bragged that…

“In the last two weeks I’ve taken out many bad Political ‘Leaders’ and Pundits including Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Lightweight ‘Congressman’ Thomas Massie of Kentucky, Brad Raffensperger of Georgia, REALLY DUMB Stephen Colbert of CBS, and others.”

Whad'ya know? Trump is admitting he had a role in Stephen Colbert being canceled, something he previously denied, and CBS said was just a financial decision.Plus he says he's also going after the other late night hosts. And finally, he says this is how he is "working so hard for our country" ???

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-06-02T07:40:34.959Z

That’s right. Trump is taking credit for the cancellation of “DUMB” (with a “B”) Stephen Colbert. Which is peculiar because he has previously denied having much, if anything, to do with it. In a post on Truth Social in July of last year Trump claimed that Colbert was fired due to “lack of talent” and CBS’s unverified assertion that the number one rated show lost $50 million dollars a year…

“Everybody is saying that I was solely responsible for the firing of Stephen Colbert from CBS, Late Night. That is not true! The reason he was fired was a pure lack of TALENT, and the fact that this deficiency was costing CBS $50 Million Dollars a year in losses.”

Trump’s tirade also included a tribute to himself saying that “It is my Honor to be working so hard for our Country!” Exactly! Because, as everyone knows, canceling Colbert is the best way to lower costs for gas, and groceries, and housing, and healthcare.

And that’s on top of the many economic benefits that come from building vanity ballrooms, staging UFC fights at the White House, paying $1.8 billion to reward violent seditionists, minting $250.00 bills with Trump’s face on them, and, of course. starting wars against Middle East countries without any reason or exit strategy.

The worst part of this assumption of credit by Trump is that he is affirming his intention to do away with the free speech rights and press freedoms embedded in the First Amendment to the Constitution. He actually believes that he has the power to dictate what can or cannot be aired on television. And sadly, too many of the billionaires who own the media are all too willing to capitulate to him for fear and/or greed.

However, that weakness will only work for so long. And the time is coming when they will learn the hard way that capitulation not only feeds Trump’s hunger for power, it alienates audiences who will revolt against the traitorous complicity in the corporate media’s embrace of MAGA-style fascism.
