As the prospects for Donald Trump facing political and legal consequences for his criminal acts continue to heat up, his behavior is becoming ever more volatile and deranged. This past week he saw his former White House trade official, and staunch ally on the “Big Lie” election front, Peter Navarro, in handcuffs and leg irons as he got arrested for contempt of Congress.

Next week the House Committee investigating the January 6th insurrection is holding public hearings that promise to reveal new evidence against Trump and his coup-plotting cronies. So Trump is already ramping up the rabid rhetoric against the truth that he knows is about to come out.

In his determination to pre-but the documents and testimony that the Committee will release, Trump is unleashing a steady stream of vitriol and lies. He’s got his work cut out for him considering that recent polls show that 67% of the public – including 41% of Republicans – say that he “bears some or a lot of responsibility for the violence and destruction committed” during the riots on January 6, 2021.
Making matters worse for Trump, he is now facing additional criticism from fellow Republicans. Former GOP House Speaker Paul Ryan appeared at an event supporting the reelection or Rep. Tom Rice (R-SC). During his remarks Ryan had some thoughts that you know would inflame the fragile ego of Trump. Referring to Rice’s vote in favor of impeaching Trump, Ryan said that…
“There were a lot of people who wanted to vote like Tom but who just didn’t have the guts to do it. There are a lot of people who say they’re going to vote their conscience, they’re going to vote for the Constitution, they’re going to vote for their convictions, but when it gets hard to do that, they don’t do it.”
Rice is currently leading his Trump-endorsed Republican primary opponent, Russell Fry, by double digits. So Trump’s ego is not the only thing at risk in this race. The value of his endorsement is also on line. Particularly after his candidates for governor and secretary of state in Georgia both lost by huge margins. Consequently, Trump barked out this rant on his failing social media site:
“Did anyone notice that Fox News went lame (bad!) when weak RINO Paul Ryan, who is despised in the Great State of Wisconsin for being ‘a pathetic loser,’ went on the Fox Board. They won’t even talk about an obviously Rigged 2020 Presidential Election, not even a mention. That’s why our Country is going to HELL – Elections have consequences. Get Ryan off your Board and report the News as it should be reported…And stop taking negative ads from the perverts, and others!!!”
Trump is the last person who should be calling other people “despised” and “pathetic losers.” He lost the popular vote twice by millions, and he never cracked 50% in approval polling throughout his occupation of the White House, or since.
Furthermore, Trump has been bashing Fox News for a lot longer than Ryan has been a board member. Any time that Fox reported something that was less than worshipful about him, he went off. In any case, no board member has authority over Fox’s programming or editorial content. And Trump certainly has no authority to demand who is, or is not, on the board.
As for Trump’s chronic fixation about the 2020 election, he simply can’t make any public comment without whining about it (he is, after all, in his own words, “the most fabulous whiner“), And it’s cute that he thinks that “our Country is going to HELL” because Fox allegedly won’t report on it. However, the truth is that Fox has not shied away from the issue. The entirety of the Fox roster have been staunchly supportive of the flagrantly fictional assertions of fraud. What Trump is likely referring to is Fox’s reluctance to promote the new crocumentary, “2,000 Mules,” that is filled with ludicrous assumptions and blatant lies. Nevertheless, Fox has indeed mentioned it, and Carlson interviewed the principle filmmakers.

If Fox has not participated in the sort of rank promotion for a lie-riddled movie that Trump would like, it might be because the network is already being sued for billions of dollars over their election fraud lies. (See the Dominion lawsuit, and the Smartmatic lawsuit).
Finally, Trump’s admonition that “Elections have consequences” is rather bizarre considering that he has refused to honor the 2020 election in which Joe Biden received seven million votes than he did, and a landslide Electoral College victory. It was an election that even Republican election officials said was the most secure in history. And Trump’s opposition to “negative ads from perverts” sounds like his promise not to produce any ads in the future. Not that he can be expected to ever keep a promise.

Man, this was one helluva good article. The monster, (TUMP) seems to be unraveling at a more rapid pace. It tickles me pink, I want to see this corrupt, evil, sex offender, racist, psychopath fall, and FALL hard, He fully gets what he deserves if and when he goes down. All of his corrupt life he thinks there is no one on this Earth that is better than him. I don’t feel sorry for this monster at all…no empathy, no nothing. All of his sorry life he has bullied, intimidated, threatened, and blackmailed people that didn’t agree with him. He also thinks he is God’s gift to women and has taken advantage of countless women, even rape. TUMP and Adolf Hitler rank at the very top as the most hated men in history, with others like Stalin, Mussolini, Bin Laden, Hussein, and others ranking just below them. I am sick and tired of him spewing lies and his projection BS too. When he feels threatened, the lies and projection from him go into overdrive and the lies get more and more outrageous. That’s the way his demented mind works. I just hope to see him in an orange prison jumpsuit soon, that will be a day for a huge celebration for me and my family.
John, I believe Putin should be added to the top of your list. For butchering Ukrainians (I need not to go much further than that) And, don’t forget Trump colluded with Putin for the 2016 and 2020 elections. Biden won in 2020 because so many people were sick of Trump and his antics. Let’s hope history repeats itself. However, I read how Republicans are being trained to alter poll results. This acronym, RINO, Republicans In Name Only? Trump has brought a new meaning to it. Republicans who don’t worship me enough. I hear this term over and over during the Trump era. Oh, and that equally disgusting MAGA acronym, Make America Great Again. On the ridiculous red hat. I hate that Trump finds it necessary to stand among American flags while giving his speeches. America was great before Trump. During the Obama years. With Trump, we’re in danger of losing our Democracy.
Judy, i think you may well be right, Putin is likely the one that caused this TUMP thing to explode into the disaster it is now. I feel as though i am fighting a losing battle as my immediate family seems to be the only family within my immediate area that is Democratic, My grown daughter, her 2 teenage sons, and my eldest son live with me and are all Dems. But all of my other relatives are TUMP azz kissers including my youngest son. We used to be a close knit family all around, but now we rarely even speak because of their sick obsession with psychopath TUMP and Rethugs. The MAGA thing is big with my ex-wife’s brother and sister, her brother proudly wears the stupid and ugly MAGA caps. I am not counting on it, but is hope with all of my heart that TUMP and his partners in crime will finally be held accountable for the JAN 6 coop attempt. Finally, speaking of the Obama years, those were the best years of my adult life, Bar none. I wish things could be like those years again so much. Donald J TUMP caused so much havoc while he was Dictator of the USA. He will keep wreaking havoc until he is extinguished. I hope that is very soon.
