The daily outpouring of unrestrained outrage by Donald Trump has become a spectacle that exceeds the pretensions of the most hyper-sensationalized soap opera. He somehow always manages to top his prior bombastic blathering with ever more rancor and hostility. It’s core symptom of his sociopathic, malignant narcissism.

In recent weeks Trump has been bellowing about the FBI having searched his Mar-a-Lago bunker in order to retrieve thousands of documents that he unlawfully took from the White House, many of which were classified at the highest levels. And his petulant tantrums produced a preposterous array of excuses for his criminal conduct.

But nothing seems to trigger Trump’s tempter more than his being compared to former President Barack Obama. Trump’s seething jealously of Obama was a prime motivating factor for his entry into politics, and it remains at the top of his list of personal grievances. Consequently, Trump is not going to happy to hear that Obama just won an Emmy for work on the Netflix documentary series, “Our Great National Parks.”
“The five-part show, which features national parks from around the globe, is produced by Barack and Michelle Obama’s production company, “Higher Ground.”
“He was the biggest name in a category full of famous nominees for the award handed out at Saturday night’s Creative Arts Emmys, including Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, David Attenborough and Lupita Nyong’o.”
This is an especially touchy subject for Trump who long craved an Emmy for himself. But he was never even nominated throughout fourteen seasons of his cheesy reality game show, The Apprentice. Still, it was far from the only aching neglect that has vexed Trump’s humungous, but fragile, ego.
Trump is surely distraught over the fact that Obama was elected twice by majorities of voters, while Trump lost the popular vote twice as well as the presidency in his second attempt. Although Trump did outscore Obama two to zero in impeachments.
As a result of what Trump regards as spurious snubs, he acted out in the most infantile manner. He refused to present the official White House portraits of Michelle and Barack Obama, as new presidents have done for decades for their predecessors. President Biden is going to correct that petty disrespect by Trump this week.
Meanwhile, Trump paid $650,000 to the Smithsonian Institution to fund portraits of himself and Melania for the National Portrait Gallery. That was money that he raised through his deceitfully named “Save America” PAC. Those are funds that he had promised to spend on electing MAGA Republicans, advancing the “Big Lie” that he won the 2020 election, and fight his legal battles.

Trump has also employed Obama “whataboutism” as one of his excuses for having stolen national security materials and storing them at his Palm Beach resort/home. in post on his floundering Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, Trump wondered…
“What happened to the 30 million pages of documents taken from the White House to Chicago by Barack Hussein Obama? He refused to give them back! What is going on? This act was strongly at odds with NARA. Will they be breaking into Obama’s “mansion” in Martha’s Vineyard?”
The truth, as noted in the Washington Post, is that “the Obama team was transferring the records to Chicago through the National Archives,” [and that} “there isn’t the faintest hint of legal violations.” In other words, the documents were always managed by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), which controlled the facility in Chicago, and none of them were classified, which was affirmed by NARA.

Trump’s Obama envy was still evident as recently as last night at his cult rally in Pennsylvania, where he whined that…
“I think we got like 10 million more votes than Obama got. Obama.. so popular. They say he’s so handsome. He’s such a great speaker. What does he say? He says nothing

Trump is so proud of getting more votes than Obama. Too bad it was four years later (Obama was happily retired), and he was running against Joe Biden, who got seven million more votes than Trump. What’s more, Trump simply can’t contain his jealousy of Obama’s looks and oratory. It really is pathetic that Trump feels the need to constantly compare himself to someone so obviously superior in every way. He just keeps setting himself up to be seen as the loser that he has always been.

I had been hoping former prez Obama would get the much-deserved Emmy. trumpty could enviously eat his heart out, but his MAGA-hate did that years ago.
Flumpty accuses Obama of saying nothing? FFS – the word salad he vomits out on Untruth AntiSocial is incoherent! And didn’t Flump say the nominations/judging board of the Emmys was ‘corrupt’ because his rubbish show never got an Emmy?
Last thing I head was he’s got to explain why those documents rambled out of the WH and into a public place – he’s now claiming anything that left the WH and went to Mar-A-Lago was automatically declassified by a ‘standing order’. WTF!???
I would say, let it torment this crybaby, turd slinging baboon. I hope the Obama’s keep doing great things for us and maybe his torment will cause the end of this dangerous animal. For the life of me, i don’t understand why this lower form of primate keeps getting so much publicity. Put him a zoo and let the visitors throw peanuts at him. He will reward the visitors with a hate filled speech about the fact that Barack Obama is 1,000 times better than he ever was. Donald TUMP is a pathetic, pitiful, lying, racist, corrupt lower life form.
John, I agree fully with your last-sentence list of Trumpler’s attributes, but one word stands out, a word not mentioned in the article about his Obama-envy: racist. Donald’s as racist as can be, so imagine his gut-wrenching anguish over President Obama’s looks, brains, class, decency and skills magnified a thousand-fold by Barack being a man of color.
Yes, and the fact that Trump is a white supremacist helps to explain his connection to Tucker Carlson. What explains Trump’s connection to Putin? Must admit I don’t know exactly, but I do know it’s there. Could do some research, but Trump makes me sick to my stomach.
In simplistic terms, Trump’s connection to Putin is the puny little bully idolising the bigger tougher bully … or the smaller weaker sleazebag fawning over the larger stronger sleazebag. Oh yeah, and don’t forget the money trail …..
I can’t even stand to look at a picture of him. Have you seen that picture of him without his gallon of make up on? That picture would most likely gag a maggot. And he says Pres Biden is too old to hold office. TUMP looks like a 110 year old baboon in it. It is indeed tough to look at that picture. Biden’s speech about the TUMP and MAGAt blowhards was excellent. The MAGAts and TUMP are screaming bloody murder.. Who cares? let those babies scream….
I am an old white male and am certainly in the minority of people of my age and race that is dedicated Democrat and a former Steelworkers union officer of my local union and most of the white people of my age group are Rethuglican and TUMP voters. Being a lifelong labor union member, our union were pro democrat and would not DARE vote Retuglican. I would hope we could get more people of color in the Senate and the house of representatives. I am disappointed there are so few people of color in our Congress. When i was in high school i took U S Government classes and i became a Democrat when i was 16 years of age. Learning all about how Rethuglicans were all about rich dotards and big corporations were all they cared about.. i also learned about the extremist Rethugs were actually described as ”Reactionaries” and was the worst part of political chart. TUMP and his cult really are extreme ”Reactionaries” and the worst of the worst in the political world.
Trump is such a putz. I didn’t hear a lot of enthusiasm in that crowd. Can you imagine listening to that for TWO HOURS????????
I couldn’t even have listened to 2 minutes of that vile creature spewing excrement out of his facial anal orifice. Two hours of it would have been my final two hours alive. I couldn’t take it.
