Stephen Colbert Triggers Another Totally Tacky Trump Tantrum on Truthless Anti-Social

With a mere six weeks until Election Day, Vice-President Kamala Harris is crisscrossing the country and engaging voters on critical subjects, such as the economy, immigration, and healthcare. Meanwhile, Donald Trump is laser focused on the issues that he believes matter most to the American people, such as who is eating the cats, creepy protectorship of depressed women, and the “stolen” election of 2020.

In this political environment it is often healthy to take a breather for some comic relief. Which is made all the more possible by the vast amounts of material provided by Trump and his MAGA clown show. Unfortunately for Trump, he doesn’t have the ability to process humor the way other human beings do. In fact, he finds it offensive.

So it will surprise no one to learn that Trump spent a sleepless Tuesday night composing a screed lambasting Stephen Colbert who appeared on PBS NewsHour to promote his new cookbook with his wife, Evie, Does This Taste Funny? During the nine minute interview, Colbert mentioned Trump once in passing when the interviewer specifically asked him about Trump…

Amna Nawaz: Do you have red lines, like people you won’t talk to. Like, would you have former President Trump on the show?
Colbert: I have had him before, and he was kind of boring. So, no. […] I don’t like to have people on the show who I don’t think are going to be honest agents of their own ideas.

That was it. But that was enough to set Trump off on an extended rant that he posted on his floundering Truth Social scam. It consisted entirely of his predictable and tiresome insults and pitifully ignorant observations. He raged that…

“I briefly watched an interview of Stephen Colbert on highly government subsidized PBS, and found it fascinating for only one reason — Why would they be wasting time and the public’s money on this complete and total loser? He is not funny, which he gets paid far too much to be, he is not wise, he is VERY BORING.”

In that opening, Trump touched on several subjects that he ought to be an expert on: what is a “waste of money,” things that are “not funny,” and how to be “VERY BORING.” But, as usual, he has no self awareness whatsoever as he projects his own personality defects onto Colbert. Then he continued saying that…

“And his show is dying from a complete lack of viewers —Gutfeld, on cable, is killing him! CBS should terminate his contract and pick almost anyone, right off the street, who would do better, and for FAR LESS MONEY.”

Actually, Colbert’s show can hardly be described as “dying.” In fact, it is the top rated late night talk show. And it is not being killed by Greg Gutfeld, whose show is not a late night program, except on the east coast. Everywhere else in the country he is on in prime time. If Trump knew anything about how ratings work, he would know that you can’t compare programs in different time periods. HUT levels (Homes Using Television) are much higher prime time. But Trump still wasn’t through…

“Or I could recommend someone, much more talented, and smarter, who would do it for FREE! The good news for Stephen is that the two DOPES on NBC & ABC are not much better than him!”

Yeah, right. Trump surely knows people who would host a network television program for free. And it would be someone with the talent and skill to do it successfully. Does anyone believe that? He couldn’t even do it himself. His “Apprentice” languished near the bottom of the ratings in its final years.

As for Colbert’s competition (who are all close friends), Trump’s reviews are less than worthless. It’s a good thing he didn’t see Jimmy Kimmel’s monologue Tuesday night. It featured a blistering smackdown of Trump’s still smoldering anger over a joke Kimmel told at the Oscars six months ago.

So Kimmel invited his wife, Molly, to respond. She had some advice for Trump, suggesting that he, “Shut up and go away. Go to Mar-a-Lago. Spend all day cheating at golf and masturbating to Newsmax. And let a competent woman take over.” That would surely crack him up. Literally! If he isn’t already cracked beyond repair.

Crybaby Trump Tells Fox News that They Should Only Put on Sycophantic Trump-Fluffers

The symptoms of malignant narcissism include an obsessive, insatiable craving for constant approval and unflinching adoration. It’s one of the most obvious symptomatic affirmations that Donald Trump is suffering from a severe case of that sociopathic personality defect. He simply cannot tolerate any diversion from total adulation.

Donald Trump Fox News

Consequently, it’s somewhat astonishing that Trump is so frequently upset with Fox News, the network that has made it their mission to advance the interests of Trump and his MAGA GOP movement. They have been so pernicious in their pursuit of pro-Trump propaganda that it cost them 3/4 of a billion dollars to back up his flagrant lies and political scams. Which they are still doing…

SEE THIS: Fox News is Still Pushing the Lie that the 2020 Election Was Stolen that Cost Them $787 Million

On Tuesday morning Trump headlined another one of his traveling salvation shows to shore up the devotion of his cult disciples. And in the process he delivered a punch to Fox News for failing in their duty to be 100% faithful to Dear Leader. Trump whined…

“You ever notice on Fox…They put me on, I do a great job. And then they follow me with a horrible commercial. I say what the hell is the good of me doing it if you’re…Roger Ailes never allowed bad commercials. What’s the purpose of me doing a nice show and then they put nine horrible commercials on, which are all lies.

“But when they put somebody on that’s good and then they always feel like they have to put somebody on who’s bad. So the net result is neutral. And you say ‘What are you doing it for? You can’t do that.’ Fox should put just the good people on. The people that want to make America great again. They shouldn’t put the guys that are professional scammers on.”

So Trump believes that a for-profit cable television network should refuse paid advertising if it isn’t unconditionally complementary to Trump. They should reject all ads by his political opponents. And if they don’t, there is no purpose in him gracing the network with his presence. Would he also support MSNBC refusing his ads?

But Trump goes even farther than that. He also believes that Fox News must not invite guest commentators, or interview politicians, who do not represent his point of view. They “should put just the good people on.” By which he means those who are unwaveringly loyal to him. He is arguing that Fox should maintain a radically partisan editorial policy. Which, despite Trump’s complaints, they pretty much already do.

It is interesting that Trump name-checks former Fox News CEO, Roger Ailes, as an exemplar of the reverential toadies that meet with his approval. Ailes was fired by Fox News for repeated sexual harassment. So Trump likely feels a sense of camaraderie with Ailes in that respect, along with his extreme far-right views.

However, Trump made an inadvertent slip with his demand that “They shouldn’t put the guys that are professional scammers on.” If Fox News complied with that, then Trump himself would be barred from appearances on the network. His entire public persona is a scam. He practices it with both his political ploys and his financial frauds.

Trump’s banishment from the airwaves, and politics, would be the single most effective anti-scam initiative in modern history at – in Trump lingo – a level that was never seen before. But not to worry, MAGA-nauts. Fox News will never willingly abandon their fuehrer. They have too much invested already.

Fox News Lies that Biden Wasn’t at a Cabinet Meeting, Even as Their Own Video Shows Him There

First Lady Jill Biden’s presence at a Cabinet meeting last week has triggered the hypersensitive conspiracy crackpots at Fox News. This is another example of how desperate they are for anything derogatory with which to smear President Biden and Vice-President Kamala Harris.

Click here to Tweet this article

Fox News, Joe Biden, Jill Biden, Friends

Since the Trump-fluffing propagandists at Fox News can’t find anything of substance to use against Harris, they are increasingly resorting to ridiculous trivialities and outright lies to malign the Democratic ticket. And often their pathetic criticisms are both trivial and false. For example…

SEE THIS: Fox News is Desperately Struggling to Find Dirt on Kamala Harris – Here is What They Found

On Monday morning the “Curvy Couch” potatoes of Fox and Friends launched another of their patented disinformation campaigns that are specifically designed to appeal the gullible rubes that comprise the vast majority of their audience. The segment addressed reports that Jill Biden had attended a White House Cabinet meeting.

Unveiling what the hosts – Steve Doocy, Ainsley Earhardt, and Lawrence Jones – apparently believe is a bombshell revelation about President Biden and his administration, they engaged in the following exchange…

Doocy: Regarding Jill Biden, maybe she’s saying that because she’s running the country.
Earhardt: Yeah. She was at the cabinet meeting on Friday. She was at the head of the table. Here’s a picture of her. And I was watching Fox and Friends Weekend and I turn on the TV and I see her at the end of the table and I’m, like, where is he [President Biden]? Why isn’t he at this meeting?
Jones: Miranda Devine [of Rupert Murdoch’s New York Post] writes ‘Who exactly is running the country.’ Certainly it appears to be Jill Biden and not Joe Biden.”

So Fox “News” is reporting that Biden did not attend his Cabinet meeting. And they forcefully demanded to know where he was and why he wasn’t there. But if they had bothered to watch the video that was playing while they were talking, they would have seen Biden right there at the table. Apparently that was too much to ask of these alleged journalists.

What’s more, Fox reported that the First Lady was seated at the head of the table, which they claimed was evidence that she was running, not merely the meeting, but the whole country. However, Biden’s usual place at such meetings is in the middle of the table, where he sat on this occasion as well. But Fox News was too busy digging for nonexistent dirt to pay any attention to measly things like facts. Even if they are only related to the national security implications of – seating arrangements?

What Fox neglected to report entirely was why the First Lady was there in the first place. It was because the President invited her “to give an update on the White House initiative to fundamentally change how we approach and fund women’s health services.” According to the White House transcript of the event…

“We’re grateful that Jill is here today. And here, across previous administrations, first ladies have attended these meetings and on — for specific reasons. It’s the first time Jill has joined us. And it goes to show how important the issue is, what she’s about to speak to, to both of us.”

Naturally, Fox News doesn’t want to inform their viewers that Biden and Harris are delivering tangible benefits for women. Particularly when MAGA Republicans and Donald Trump have such animosity toward them and openly hold them in contempt.

While the GOP is working to deprive women of critical healthcare, Democrats are making progress expanding those services. And the only thing that Fox News can do in response is to air asinine stories about seating arrangements and the President missing a meeting that he was actually at. And this is what they call “news.”

Wannabe Dictator Trump Threatens to Revoke ABC News Broadcast License in Fox News Interview

The fallout from the ABC News debate with Vice-President Kamala Harris and convicted felon Donald Trump continues to produce lesions in the body politic. Mostly in the form of whining by Trump, despite the fact that he insists that he won, which is contrary to post-debate polling.

Donald Trump Tyrant Dictator

In the two short weeks following the debate, the positive impact for Harris is inarguable. Her fundraising, which was already remarkable by recent standards, continues to set records. And polls have shown her surging into leads nationally and in the critical swing states, a development that has Trump sinking into severe psychosis…

SEE THIS: Trump is Suffering From a Severe Case of Self-Deception on a Level Never Seen Before

For someone who wants the world to believe that he emerged from the face-off as the undisputed victor, Trump sure complains a lot. He has spent the past couple of weeks attacking the debate moderators as biased, and making ludicrous accusations that Harris was given the questions (and answers) beforehand and that she wore a communications device disguised as an earring. None of which contained even a speck of truth.

Building on those lies, Trump gave an interview to MAGA friendly Fox News flunky, Brian Kilmeade, wherein he elaborated on his psychobabble. But his remarks transcended his familiar mutterings of bias, devolving into open authoritarian threats…

Kilmeade: A Democratic pollster is calling for an investigation of ABC and the moderators. He wants communications pulled to see if they were talking to each other because of the fact-check on you and not on them, and the questions and topics. Do you join in those questions?
Trump: Sure, I do. I think they should be investigated. And you know, they have to get a license from the federal government.

First of all, the alleged Democratic pollster Kilmeade mentioned was the notoriously right-wing former Democrat, Mark Penn. And neither he, nor Trump, nor Fox News have any justification for, or authority to demand internal communications from ABC News.

More ominous, however, is Trump’s response wherein he makes an overt threat to revoke the broadcast license of ABC News. That’s the sort of totalitarian abuse of power that is practiced by Trump’s idols, Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jong Un. And it’s how Trump promises govern if he were to return to power. It’s also consistent with his longstanding hatred of the free press that he refers to in Stalinist terms as “the enemy of the people.”

Trump, and Fox News, assert that ABC demonstrated bias by daring to fact-check Trump during the debate, but not Harris. However, it isn’t her fault that Trump lied more than 30 times, while she stuck to truth. And if demonstrating bias was the crime that Trump and Fox is so concerned about, they might want to take a look in the mirror. Fox “News” has been nothing but a bald-faced, and shamelessly dishonest, right-wing propaganda outfit from its inception.

What’s more, Trump grossly exaggerated (as usual) the incidence of fact-checks, saying that he was checked “nine or 11 different times about things that I was right on virtually every case.” And while they could have legitimately fact-checked him 30 times, it was actually only four, for which he was clearly wrong. The moderators politely corrected Trump on the following subjects…

  • Abortion: “There is no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it’s born.”
  • Migrant Pet Cuisine: “[There were] no credible reports of pets or specific claims of pets being harmed, injured or abused by individuals in the immigrant community.”
  • Crime: “As you know, the FBI says that overall violent crime is actually coming down in this country.”
  • The 2020 Election: “60 cases in front of many judges, many of them Republican, looked at it and said there was no widespread fraud.”

That was every fact-check of Trump that occurred during the debate. And everyone one of them was appropriate and fair and handled with dignity and an intent to inform voters. And despite his lie-riddled, angry, and often incoherent performance, Trump still says that…

“I thought it was a great debate for me. I thought it was one of my best debates that I’ve ever had. And some people disagree, but I thought it was the strongest debate I ever had.”

Well, if that was “the strongest debate [he] ever had,” then why is he so afraid to take the stage with Harris one more time before Election Day? Does he really want that embarrassing display to be the last thing that millions of Americans see before they vote? Or is he just too scared that he will get pummeled again if he agrees to another match?

Harris’ challenge to Trump to have another debate is brilliant. It’s a lose-lose scenario for Trump. If he agrees, he is likely to get another beatdown. If he declines, he’s affirming his fear. So the question for Trump is whether he is more worried about being seen as a loser or a chicken. Although it may be too late for him on both counts.

Trump Rants Hysterically that Women are ‘Poor’ and ‘Depressed’ But that He Will Fix Everything

From the beginning of his misadventures in politics, Donald Trump has exalted himself as the panacea to all of life’s ills. He has insisted that only he could resolve the nation’s problems. He contends that all manner of misfortune – from inflation to the war in Ukraine – would never have happened were he in charge.

Donald Trump, Woman, Fear

Trump’s magical mystery revisionist history is evidence of the severity of the decay that has spread in his sickly cerebral cavity. Not only is he clueless about problem solving, he is often the cause of the problem itself. And in the end he manages to humiliate himself with astonishingly deranged commentaries.

SEE THIS: TRUMP IS TOAST: The Washington Post’s Laundry List of Trump’s Increasingly Bizarre Claims

On Saturday morning Trump provided some outstanding examples of his demented world view. On his floundering social media scam, Truth Social, Trump posted a couple of manic messages that ought to scare the bejeebus out of anyone with a remnant of rationality.

Trump began his tantrum describing the horrendous state of women in America, saying in part (and in all-caps) that…

“WOMEN ARE POORER THAN THEY WERE FOUR YEARS AGO, ARE LESS HEALTHY THAN THEY WERE FOUR YEARS AGO, ARE LESS SAFE ON THE STREETS THAN THEY WERE FOUR YEARS AGO, ARE MORE DEPRESSED AND UNHAPPY THAN THEY WERE FOUR YEARS AGO, AND ARE LESS OPTIMISTIC AND CONFIDENT IN THE FUTURE THAN THEY WERE FOUR YEARS AGO! I WILL FIX ALL OF THAT, AND FAST, AND AT LONG LAST THIS NATIONAL NIGHTMARE WILL BE OVER. WOMEN WILL BE HAPPY, HEALTHY, CONFIDENT AND FREE! YOU WILL NO LONGER BE THINKING ABOUT ABORTION.”

Who better than Trump to assess this “NIGHTMARE” that women are enduring? Are there no better authorities on the status of women than someone who was found liable for sexual harassment and been adjudicated a rapist? Not to mention the dozens of other accusations of sexual assault that have been levied against him.

And yet, Trump sees himself as the savior of women who can make them all “HAPPY, HEALTHY, CONFIDENT AND FREE!” If only they would shut their yaps and do what he tells them to do. Gawd forbid any of them ever challenge or disagree with him. They, of course, would be put in their place as “low IQ,” “birdbrains,” and/or “crazy.”

Trump’s second morning harangue was aimed the media that he refers to in Stalinist terms as “the enemy of the people.” He started out lambasting a familiar foe, Bill Maher, who he calls “a befuddled mess.” Then he turns to Maher’s guests, “‘dumb as a rock bimbo’ Stephanie Ruhle” and “Trump hating loser, Bret Stephens.”

Naturally, Trump’s insult of Ruhle is a misogynistic screed that further demonstrates his hatred of women. And his attack on conservative pundit Stephens includes a swipe at the New Times that he thinks he is driving crazy. He also repeats his false claim that the Times is “FAILING,” suggesting that they “put it to sleep.” For the record, the Times is doing a heck of a lot better than Trump’s own Truth Social…

This is the what Trump felt compelled to address with just over six weeks until Election Day. Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are crisscrossing the country, holding rallies in swing states and interacting with voters. Trump, meanwhile, is phoning in to MAGA friendly TV shows and podcasts, and visiting places (e.g. New York) where he can’t hope to get any votes worth mentioning.

Nevertheless, Trump still has time to post ditzy diatribes on Truth Social where no one will see them but his cult followers, and critics who find him pathetic and ripe for ridicule. It’s a brilliant campaign strategy that befits a “stable genius.”

UPDATE: Desi Lydic of The Daily Show has something to say about Trump’s promise to be the protector of women…

WTF? Fox News and GOP Clown Comer Launch a Gross Attack on Tim Walz and His ‘Scary Family’

As Election Day approaches, the desperation of Donald Trump has become ever more apparent. His criticisms of Vice-President Kamala Harris continue to devolve into increasingly impotent insults that reflect more negatively on him than on her. He is resorting to bizarre conspiracy theories about the size of Harris’ rally crowds, and even more bizarre allegations that she is spying on him.

Fox News, Kamala Harris, Tim Walz

Trump isn’t alone in this descent into the pitiful. His Ministry of Propaganda, aka Fox News, has been equally inept in their efforts to inflict damage on Harris. Despite their best efforts, all they can come up with is nonsense that has no bearing whatsoever on the campaign or the lives of the American people. For example…

SEE THIS: Fox News is Desperately Struggling to Find Dirt on Kamala Harris – Here is What They Found

On Friday morning Fox took another stab at maligning the Democratic presidential ticket. This time they aimed their animus at Harris’ running mate, Gov. Tim Walz. And what they found was a real bombshell that could explode with the force of a falling eyelash.

In a segment with Fox News Senior Trump-Fluffer, Maria Bartiromo, the Republican chair of the House Oversight Committee, James Comer, revealed the damning discovery that Gov. Walz has what Comer calls “a scary family”

“Yeah, that’s a scary family there. It looks like the type of family that’s been indoctrinated. They believe that there’s a better way to do business. Some of the things the Walz’s have said about China, their affection for China, that’s very concerning to me. Because we don’t want to set our business model like China. I mean, China’s already got too big of a foothold here in the United States.”

OH MY! Have you seen Gov. Walz’s family? They are like creatures straight out of “Night of the Living Kindly Neighbors” They’re the type of people you would expect to terrorize children with treats and tenderness and trips to the pony rides. It’s too awful to contemplate!

You really have to wonder what family Comer was thinking of. Certainly Walz’s immediate family in his Minnesota home are close and loving and have none of the “scary” attributes that Comer is asserting. Or maybe Comer was referring to Walz’s distant, pro-Trump relatives in Nebraska. They do look a little like some frightening cult members.

Comer’s complaints about Walz having some sort of nefarious connection to China are laughable. Yes, he did teach English there for a year, shortly after he graduated college. And that experience with Chinese children may have left him with some affectionate memories. But that is hardly evidence of “indoctrination” or a plot to “set our business model like China.”

Undeterred by common sense, or reality, Comer is known for his wild goose chases. He presided over ludicrous congressional probes of President Biden and his son Hunter. [Apparently Comer has a thing about going after people’s family members.] After months of pointless hearings, and millions of wasted taxpayer dollars, he never produced a shred of evidence of any wrongdoing. He was such a huge failure that a Newsmax host said he “looked like a joke,” and even Fox News chastised him…

SEE ALSO: Fox News is Steaming Mad at GOP Chairman Comer for Being an Incompetent Biden Persecutor

What makes this all the more preposterous is that it is Donald Trump who has bent the knee to China. He brags about his close relationship with Chinese President Xi Jinping. He has numerous business dealings in China. And so do his kids, Ivanka, Eric, and Don Jr.

If anyone’s family should be subject to investigation, it’s Trump’s. But don’t hold your breath waiting for Comer to initiate one. That would require honesty, integrity, patriotism. Those are qualities that are anathema to Comer and the MAGA GOP.

Trump FREAKS OUT Over Report that He Was Hacked By Iran, So He Accuses Kamala Harris of Spying

Donald Trump has never been a particularly stable individual. He is widely known for his highfalutin histrionics and maniacal meltdowns. But ever since Kamala Harris was elevated to nominee of the Democratic Party for President, Trump has taken a treacherous turn for the worse.

Donald Trump Pacifier Fox

Trump has always had a flare for melodrama. He ramps everything up to hyperbolic extremes in order to create an artificial buzz. But now his campaign is running solely on the fumes of his seething desperation. He is stuck in a downward spiral that threatens to drown him in ever deeper depths of delusion.

SEE THIS: TRUMP IS TOAST: The Washington Post’s Laundry List of Trump’s Increasingly Bizarre Claims

On Thursday morning Trump was grasping plaintively to a story about efforts by Iran to peddle stolen campaign materials. And naturally, Trump thoroughly mangled the facts so as to be unrecognizable to anyone with a toehold on reality. He posted to his floundering social media scam, Truth Social, two comments that were more than slightly unhinged…

1st: “WOW, JUST OUT! THE FBI CAUGHT IRAN SPYING ON MY CAMPAIGN, AND GIVING ALL OF THE INFORMATION TO THE KAMALA HARRIS CAMPAIGN. THEREFORE SHE AND HER CAMPAIGN WERE ILLEGALLY SPYING ON ME. TO BE KNOWN AS THE IRAN, IRAN, IRAN CASE! WILL KAMALA RESIGN IN DISGRACE FROM POLITICS? WILL THE COMMUNIST LEFT PICK A NEW CANDIDATE TO REPLACE HER?”

2nd: “WHEN DOES KAMALA AND HER CAMPAIGN GO BEFORE A GRAND JURY ON IRAN, IRAN, IRAN? MY CAMPAIGN WHEN THROUGH HELL ON THE RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA HOAX. THE BIG DIFFERENCE IS THAT THE IRAN/KAMALA CAMPAIGN CORRUPTION CASE IS REAL!”

Let’s examine this berserk outburst in some more detail, shall we? To begin with, the FBI did not catch “IRAN SPYING ON MY CAMPAIGN, AND GIVING ALL OF THE INFORMATION TO THE KAMALA HARRIS CAMPAIGN.” In fact, they only found that someone associated with Iran had improperly acquired materials from Trump’s campaign and attempted – unsuccessfully – to pass it on to President Biden’s campaign. It all occurred before Harris had become the nominee.

Harris, therefore, was not spying on Trump, and neither was Biden. That, however doesn’t stop a pathological liar like Trump from making reckless accusations of illegalities that exist only in his disease-rotted brain. So there is no reason for Harris to resign. Although Trump ought to consider it after making such flagrantly dishonest remarks and distorting the very serious matter of foreign governments trying to subvert American democracy.

Trump went on to ask “WHEN DOES KAMALA AND HER CAMPAIGN GO BEFORE A GRAND JURY ON IRAN, IRAN, IRAN?” All three of them? You have to wonder what causes Trump to have those weird, repetitious glitches. But more to the point, there are no grounds for a Grand Jury probe of Harris for one simple reason. Because, outside of his frenzied psychobabble, there is no evidence of any wrongdoing whatsoever.

Finally, Trump tries to tie his bogus contortion of this Iran story to the fully documented and treasonous acts involving his unsavory connections to Russia. And along with his blatant dishonesty, he is profoundly hypocritical with regard to making use of dirt compiled by hostile foreign countries. In 2019, George Stephanopoulos asked Trump whether he would use such materials or turn them over to the FBI. He replied that…

“I think maybe you do both. I think you might want to listen. There’s nothing wrong with listening. […] It’s not an [election] interference. They have information, I think I’d take it.”

Not only would Trump take such unscrupulously obtained info, he actually asked Vladimir Putin to hack Hillary Clinton’s email. This morning Trump also dispatched his campaign Senior Advisor, Tim Murtaugh, to Fox News to further spread his lies about the Iran hack. Murtaugh told Fox that…

“Of course the Iranians prefer Kamala Harris. Of course, because they have a pliant, sympathetic figure in her. The questions here today are: What exactly did the Harris campaign do with this stolen information that they were sent? What did they do with it? Did they try to shop it to the media. Did they use it in any way? This is absolutely election interference”

What exactly the campaign did with the information was to turn it over to the FBI. They didn’t use any of it. There isn’t even any evidence that they looked at it before reporting it. And this was even validated by – FOX NEWS! According to Fox…

“The Harris campaign addressed the revelation by federal agencies that individuals tied to the Biden campaign were targeted by Iranian actors with emails containing stolen Trump campaign materials [saying that] ‘We have cooperated with the appropriate law enforcement authorities since we were made aware that individuals associated with the then-Biden campaign were among the intended victims of this foreign influence operation.’ [and that] ‘We’re not aware of any material being sent directly to the campaign; a few individuals were targeted on their personal emails with what looked like a spam or phishing attempt.'”

[Fox also reported that] “In a joint statement released Wednesday, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), the FBI, and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) [said that] ‘There is currently no information indicating those recipients replied.’ [and that] A Harris campaign official told Fox News Digital that ‘the material was not used.'”

So Trump and his campaign knew precisely what the Harris campaign did before Trump and his flunky made public statements falsely accusing Harris of improprieties. Which means that they were all lying in order to smear Harris. That, of course, is nothing new for Trump and his cohorts. In fact, it is their standard mode of operation. But it is getting more transparent and tiresome and desperate as Election Day draws nearer. Expect that trend to continue right up until November 5th, and even beyond.

Trump is Suffering From a Severe Case of Self-Deception on a Level Never Seen Before

With less than two months until Election Day, predictions about the outcome of the presidential race are still fairly fluid. Pundits are mostly aligned in forecasting the results as a close call. Although part of their reticence to make more bold predictions may be in part due to having been wrong so often in the recent past.

Donald Trump

However, it is undeniable that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz have a decidedly strong advantage with regard to momentum. In the seven weeks since Harris became the Democratic nominee, she has raised unprecedented sums of donations and rocketed to leading positions in most polls. Trump, meanwhile, has descended to ever deeper depths of delusion triggered by fear and despair.

SEE THIS: Trump’s New Campaign Slogan Inspired By His Angry Debate Act: ‘There’s Nothing to Smile About’

As usual, the best place to find out how Trump is really feeling at any given point in time is his flailing social media scam, Truth Social. And today is no exception. In another all-caps tantrum, Trump bellowed that he has a…

“BIG LEAD IN THE JUST RELEASED RASMUSSEN POLL, ONE OF THE FEW THAT GOT IT RIGHT!”

There’s a surprising amount of misinformation to unpack in that brief outburst. Let’s start with the fact that Trump’s alleged “BIG LEAD” in the Rasmussen poll is a soaring 2%, well within the margin of error. Secondly, as Trump noted, it’s a Rasmussen poll, which is a notoriously right-wing leaning operation, and has had a pro-MAGA bias from the start.

However, to his credit, Trump is correct in observing that Rasmussen’s results are “ONE OF THE FEW” that show him ahead of Harris. Almost every other credible pollster has Harris in the lead. Take a look at the RealClear Politics poll of polls…

Trump’s celebration of having a single, right-wing pollster release a survey that shows him with a small lead is evidence of his psychological misfiring, wherein he can only process positive news about himself. Which in this case is quite a feat considering that even Rasmussen’s results reveal a steep downward spiral. Have a look at the Rasmussen polls since President Biden passed the torch to Harris…

So even though Rasmussen continues to prop Trump up, it is now just by two points rather than by seven. He has stayed at about 49% the whole time, while Harris jumped from 43% to 47%. And at the risk of being repetitive, these are Rasmussen’s numbers. Trump can’t do any better than this, even with the most Trump-fluffing pollster in the business.

For good measure, Trump posted another comment that exhibits his willful delusion about himself and how voters perceive him. He bragged that

“Finally everyone is agreeing that I won the Debate with Kamala. It was like a delayed reaction but, as one Political Pundit said, ‘Trump is still the G.O.A.T.'”

Once again, Trump is imagining that “everyone” agrees that he won the debate with Harris that he definitely lost. Polls taken after the debate confirm that Harris beat him. As do the trends evident in the general election polling. His reference to a “delayed reaction” is just another invention of his bruised psyche.

The question is whether Trump actually believes his absurd analyses of the state of the race, or if he is just trying to lead his cult followers down a primrose path. Not that it makes any difference in the long run. If it’s the former, he’s patently insane. If it’s the latter, he’s a bald-faced liar. And given those two choice the most likely answer is…It’s both. Trump is a patently insane bald-faced liar.

Tough Guy JD Vance Dares Nut Jobs to Come to His Rally and Try to Assassinate Him

The 2024 presidential campaign has suddenly taken on a new topic of discussion. It has consumed the commentaries of the candidates, as well as much of the media coverage. But what’s peculiar about it is that it isn’t really anything new. In fact, it is something that has been present for months, even years.

Donald Trump, JD Vance, Dr. Evil, Mini-Me

This emerging topic has to do with the profusion of hostile and inflammatory rhetoric that has the potential to incite violence. And now everyone seems to be talking about it. Never mind that Donald Trump has been disgorging incendiary rants since the inception of his political career. It is only now becoming newsworthy, in part due to the recent incidents involving Trump and a couple of crazed, gun-toting individuals. Incidents that Trump immediately exploited with hostile and inflammatory rhetoric:

SEE THIS: Trump Blames the Alleged Assassination Attempt at His Golf Course on Kamala Harris and Joe Biden

On Tuesday morning, Trump’s running mate, JD Vance, joined in the exploitation at a campaign event in Michigan. During his speech he predictably sought to blame Kamala Harris and other Democrats for ramping up the rhetoric that he claimed would result in violence. It was a purely political accusation that had no foundation in reality. But it was only the beginning for Vance. Escalating his own bombastic blather, Vance said that…

“With close to 500 patriots in the state of Michigan in this building right now and outside, I’d like to see an assassin try to come in this room. They’ve come in the wrong place, if you try to walk into this place right now.

Seriously? Vance is issuing a straightforward invitation to some other crazed individuals who would take his words as a challenge. They might believe that answering that call could make them famous. And while Vance might think that he’s taking a macho stance against political hitmen, he’s actually just fomenting potential tragedies that would get innocent people killed.

Contrary to Vance’s phony bravado, it would not be impossible for a gunman to gain entry to one his campaign events. And if he came armed with an assault weapon, he could do an enormous amount of harm to innumerable people before any of the “patriots” in the room could stop him. So Vance is putting the lives of many others at risk in order to make himself look like a tough guy.

Vance’s provocation is just another type of inflammatory rhetoric. But it would have the same dire consequences. Trump and his confederates couldn’t care less about the welfare of others. And their complaints about hostile dialog is hypocritical in the extreme.

No one has spewed more incendiary – and utterly dishonest – words than Trump himself. From his calling Harris a “Marxist, communist, fascist,” to asserting that the Democrats want to “destroy the country,” and that if they are elected “there will be no country,” to charges that the left favors “murdering babies after they are born,” to claiming that Democrats want “open borders” to allow “criminals and mental patients to pour in,” so they can wreak havoc and vote for more Democrats.

Trump’s ravings are nothing short of insanity. Meanwhile, the things that he complains that Democrats are saying about him are not remotely comparable. For instance, saying that Trump is a threat to democracy is not inflammatory rhetoric. It’s the truth! and Trump’s own words and actions confirm it.

Trump has yet to accept the results of the 2020 election that he lost. He incited a deadly insurrection and assault on the Capital in order to undermine democracy and maintain power. He proposed having the military shoot protesters. He aligns himself with foreign enemies like Vladimir Putin, and advances their anti-American agenda. He literally called for terminating the Constitution…

Trump and Vance, and the Republican Party at large, all want to silence Democrats and others who disagree with them. They demand that only Democrats tone down their rhetoric, but that Trump et al should remain free to rant hysterically at will. Needless to say, that isn’t gonna fly with either Democrats or the majority of the American people. And provocations like the one that Vance just made will only serve to drive the MAGA party farther into the fringes. Hopefully, however, it won’t produce any more harm in the interim.

Trump Blames the Alleged Assassination Attempt at His Golf Course on Kamala Harris and Joe Biden

For the second time in as many months a cretinous jerk with an assault rifle has apparently plotted to assassinate former president and convicted felon, Donald Trump. And just as they did in the prior episode, MAGA Republicans are furiously trying to lay the blame on Democrats in general, and on Kamala Harris and President Biden in particular.

Donald Trump Angry

Never mind that the shooter in July was a registered Republican, and that the the latest suspect reportedly voted for Trump in 2016. The MAGA Klan has been attributing blame for these loathsome acts on Democrats without a shred of evidence to support their claims.

Not one to shy away from a blazing conspiracy melodrama, Donald Trump gave an interview to his pals at Fox News Digital wherein he fanned the flames of these current events in a manner that can only be interpreted as an effort to cause the most damage possible by spreading the rhetorical fire. Asserting his clairvoyant powers, he channeled the thoughts of the would-be shooter, Ryan Wesley Routh, saying that…

“He believed the rhetoric of Biden and Harris, and he acted on it. Their rhetoric is causing me to be shot at, when I am the one who is going to save the country, and they are the ones that are destroying the country – both from the inside and out.”

Not only does Trump profess to know what Routh was thinking, but he actually engages in the sort of incendiary rhetoric that he is pretending to be against by charging that Biden and Harris are “destroying the country.” And he was only just getting started…

“These are people that want to destroy our country. It is called the enemy from within. They are the real threat. […] They do it with a combination of rhetoric and lawsuits they wrap me up in.”

Trump can hardly complain about the language used to describe him, which is mostly accurate citations of his own words. But he is also trying to associate the legal cases against him with motivations to do him in. In his mind, any legitimate indictment and prosecution of him for the crimes that he has actually committed is tantamount to an assassination threat. In fact, just campaigning against him is a mortal sin. Then he continued with a threat of his own, saying that…

“They use highly inflammatory language. I can use it too – far better than they can – but I don’t.”

Yeah, right! Trump doesn’t use inflammatory language at all. Unless you count what he said in this very interview about Biden and Harris “destroying the country” and being “the enemy from within.” And he has used similar and worse language for years at his cult rallies and on other interviews in the MAGA media. Don’t forget the incitation of his StormTrumpers to attack Congress and stage a deadly coup attempt on January 6, 2021.

Trump repeated himself in a post on his failing social media scam, Truth Social, Monday morning wherein he raged about “the rigged and highly partisan ABC Debate,” and “all of the ridiculous lawsuits,” that have “taken politics in our Country to a whole new level of Hatred, Abuse, and Distrust.” And that “Because of this Communist Left Rhetoric, the bullets are flying, and it will only get worse!” You gotta watch out for those flying communist bullets.

The rest of the post was dedicated to Trump’s routine, racist immigrant bashing about “millions of people, from places unknown” and “TERRORISTS, CRIMINALS, AND MENTALLY INSANE” “INVADE[RS]” who he says “ARE STEALING OUR JOBS AND OUR WEALTH.” It seems that to Trump the answer to every question, no matter the subject, is “invading immigrant criminals.”

To top it off, Trump demonstrated his devotion to grifting off of anything that he thinks he can exploit for financial gain. He posted the following comment on Truth Social the morning after his golf cart-astrophe. The annotations reveal his true motivations in trying times like these…
