Trump Blasts the Former Presidents Who ‘Strangled’ Middle East Peace – Which Includes Himself

There are good reasons to be grateful today for the freedom of the 20 remaining living hostages taken by Hamas two years ago. The October 7 slaughter that Hamas conducted at a music festival in Israel was unthinkably repugnant. And the hostage taking was cruel and unforgivable.

Donald Trump

While it may be a joyous day for the freed hostages and their families, we cannot forget the horror of the past that resulted in the deaths of so many innocent people. And that includes the tens of thousands of Palestinians is Gaza who were not combatants and had no part in the atrocities of Hamas.

On this day we are thankful that some of the victims have been returned. But we must also remain committed to preventing any such event from occurring in the future. And with regard to that, we must recognize that Donald Trump is not helping matters. He is not a hero or a peace activist. To the contrary, he has exacerbated the problem with his vile rhetoric and his exploitation of events to glorify himself.

SEE THIS: By Trump’s Deranged Logic the U.S. Should Takeover Israel and Relocate All of its Residents

For instance, in the address he gave before the Israeli Knesset, Trump frequently wandered off into shameless praising of himself for making America “the hottest country anywhere in the world.” Which has nothing to do with the situation in the Middle East. But even worse, he sought to heap all the credit on the “peace” deal onto himself, saying that…

“What we’re doing now, it could’ve happened a long time ago, but it was strangled and set back almost irretrievably by the administrations of Barack Obama and then Joe Biden. There was a hatred toward Israel.”

Trump: "What we're doing now, it could've happened a long time ago, but it was strangled and set back almost irretrievably by the administrations of Barack Obama and then Joe Biden. There was a hatred toward Israel."

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-10-13T12:11:09.315Z

REALLY? In Trump’s revisionist history, only former presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden were responsible for failing to achieve peace in the Middle East. However, he left out another president who served in between those two. His name was Donald Trump. So why didn’t Trump get a peace deal four years ago if it was so easy? Was it because he has a “hatred toward Israel”?

It should also be noted that the deal Trump claims credit for now was fundamentally the same as one that Biden had proposed in May of 2024. It contained the same three phases, hostage releases, and plans for governing of Gaza. Israeli president Benjamin Netanyahu nixed that deal under pressure from his far-right legislators. He may also have had an incentive to prevent Biden from getting any credit, in order to help Trump win the 2024 election, and then agree to essentially the same plan, but attaching Trump’s name to it.

So while we rejoice in the good news about the freed Israelis who have suffered for so long, let’s also keep in mind that the sort of ignorance, dishonesty, hostility, and incompetence, that is part and parcel of the character of Trump, has caused more suffering than it has resolved. And if we are to progress as a nation, and a leader in the world community, we must not allow villains like Trump to come to power just so they can abuse it.

Trump Derangement Surfaces in Two Truth Social Posts that Are Utterly Insane (More than Usual)

Anyone who has been paying attention is well aware of the cognitive dysfunction of Donald Trump. His incoherent responses to simple questions, and the rambling oratories such as those he delivered at the United Nations and the Navy anniversary event, would be enough to commit an ordinary person to an institution.

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

Donald Trump, Padded Cell

Trump manages to turn every public comment or address into a pleading for adoration, a blathering expression of victimhood, or a vicious attack on his many perceived enemies. He spent the week prior to the announcement of the Nobel Peace Prize lobbying for himself to receive the honor. Never mind that the reasons against it are too numerous to list in full.

SEE THIS: Fox News Lunacy: There’s ‘Universal Agreement’ on this Show for Trump to Get a Nobel Peace Prize

On Sunday morning Trump took to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, to provide additional proof (as if it were necessary) of his rapidly declining mental acuity. They were the sort of outbursts that one might expect to come from a man on a street corner shouting at cars about the end of the world. Trump began with a pre-dawn diatribe lashing out at…well, as it turns out, himself:

“THE BIDEN FBI PLACED 274 AGENTS INTO THE CROWD ON JANUARY 6. If this is so, which it is, a lot of very good people will be owed big apologies. What a SCAM – DO SOMETHING!!! President DJT”

The first problem with that rant is that on January 6, 2021, Trump was still president. Joe Biden was not inaugurated until January 20. So it was Trump’s FBI, including the Bureau’s director, Christopher Wray, whom he appointed three and half years prior, that would have placed any agents in the crowd of insurrectionists.

What’s more, the story that Trump is telling has already been debunked by his own current FBI director, Kash Patel. Trump raised this issue last month after reading a story about it in the ultra-rightist rag, “The Blaze.” He alleged that the FBI agents were “acting as Agitators and Insurrectionists.” But that was after Patel had told Fox News that “While the agents were on hand, they were sent in after the riot had begun to try to control the unruly crowd.”

MORE HERE: Trump’s Lies About FBI Provocateurs on January 6th are Debunked by His Own FBI Chief Kash Patel

If it isn’t bad enough that Trump has apparently forgotten when he was president, his other comment on Sunday morning exposed another fallacious framing of reality. He raged that

“The Ukraine Impeachment (of me!) Scam was a far bigger Illegal Hoax than Watergate. I sincerely hope the necessary authorities, including CONGRESS, are looking into this! Adam ‘Schiffty’ Schiff was sooo dishonest and corrupt. So many laws, and protocols, were violated, and just plain broken!!! President DJT”

REALLY? Trump is now asserting that Watergate – the well documented scandal that led to the resignation of Richard Nixon, and the conviction of 48 of his White House staffers, including his Chief of Staff and Attorney General – was an “illegal Hoax.” That’s a new angle for Trump. Although he might want to reconsider associating his own impeachable offenses with Watergate. Because if Watergate was not a hoax, which it wasn’t, then neither is Trump’s impeachment.

Trump went on to make another wholly unfounded accusation against Sen. Adam Schiff. As in the past, Trump neglects to offer any evidence of the dishonesty or corruption that he alleges. However, Sen. Schiff was one of three persons on Trump’s enemies list that he recently ordered his Attorney Genuflect, Pam Bondi, to prosecute. And two of them, New York Attorney General Letitia James and former FBI director James Comey, have been indicted. So is Sen. Schiff next?

At any other time in America’s history, the behavior that Trump exhibits would result in impeachment or invocation of the Constitution’s 25th Amendment to remove him from office. He would already have been committed to an institution. The only question would be whether that would be a penal or mental institution. Perhaps the prison’s mental ward would be the best option.

HUH? Trump Promises to Work with ‘Radical Left Democrats’ on ‘the Things They Want to Destroy’

The Trump Shutdown is now ten days old, and there is no hint of any resolution on the horizon. What there is are incessant lies by Donald Trump and his MAGA cronies who are trying to blame the shutdown on Democrats who have no control over any branch of the government.

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

Donald Trump WTF

The only reason that the shutdown continues is that Republicans have steadfastly refused to engage in any negotiations with Democrats. That’s because 1) Republicans are terrified of the prospect of having to vote on releasing the Trump-riddled Epstein files, and 2) the GOP is dead set against allowing any compromise that would prevent healthcare costs from skyrocketing as a result of their brutal funding cuts and hatred of migrants, and the thought that they might receive life-saving care in an emergency.

SEE THIS: Trump Unites America – In Opposition to His Shutdown and His Skyrocketing Healthcare Costs

That’s why after a week and a half Trump is posting bizarre rants on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, seeking to shift blame for the shutdown on Democrats. Like his arguments on almost any subject, they are entirely devoid of logic, which he replaces with anger and insults. On Saturday morning he raged that…

“Chuck Schumer recently said, ‘Every day gets better’ during their Radical Left Shutdown. I DISAGREE! If nothing is done, because of ‘Leader’ Chuck Schumer and the Democrats, our Brave Troops will miss the paychecks they are rightfully due on October 15th. […] The Radical Left Democrats should OPEN THE GOVERNMENT, and then we can work together to address Healthcare, and many other things that they want to destroy.”

Of course, Trump is being deliberately dishonest with his reference to Schumer saying “Every day gets better.” Schumer was explicitly referring to the fact that the public is increasingly siding with Democrats against Trump and the GOP. The people recognize that it is the responsibility of the majority party in Congress to shape a compromise on a budget bill that will pass. Democrats have no power to do that.

Trump puts a spotlight on the Republicans’ refusal to negotiate by adding that he is only willing to “work together” with the “Radical Left Democrats” on “things that they want to destroy.” WTF does that even mean? Is Trump saying that he is amenable to destroying things in concert with Democrats? Why would he do that? Democrats, of course, don’t want to do that.

This is entirely a Trump thing, It’s obvious that he is just spewing noxious nonsense as a way of avoiding doing the work that the people expect from a president and their representatives in Congress. And contrary to Trump’s limp demand, Democrats cannot “OPEN THE GOVERNMENT.” Especially when the Republican leaders in Congress refuse to even come to work.

Trump also said that he’s directing his Secretary of “War,” Pete Hegseth, to “use all available funds to get our Troops PAID.” But he doesn’t say from where he would get these funds during a government shutdown. He also accuses Democrats of holding the nation hostage, which is, of course, what Trump and the GOP are doing. But at least he admits that the shutdown is “dangerous.” Previously he has been celebrating it as an opportunity to fire government workers. But only the Democratic ones.

It’s telling that the guy who pretends to have written a book on “The Art of the Deal,” is so pathetically incapable of making any deals. If Trump thinks that insulting Democrats as “radical,” and offering to work with them to “destroy” things is going to lead to them making a deal, he is even more deranged that we thought. And that’s really saying something.

Republican Leaders Call Millions of Americans Who Support the ‘No Kings’ Protests ‘Terrorists’

On October 18 there will another protest against the reign of America’s aspiring authoritarian dictator, Donald Trump. He has the distinction of being the least popular U.S. president in modern times. Which makes it much easier to organize these protests. The last one drew more than five million people nationwide.

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

King Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

In addition to being profoundly unpopular, historians have ranked Trump dead last on their Presidential Greatness Project. And no wonder. He is a convicted felon, an adjudicated rapist, a serial adulterer, an unrepentant con man, and a pathological liar. It remains a mystery how such a walking embodiment of embarrassment could have ever been elected president – twice.

MORE HERE: OK, So Trump is a Felon, Liar, Racist, Adulterer, and Grifter. He’s Also Just So Damn Embarrassing

As the upcoming date for the next “No Kings” rally approaches, Trump and his MAGA minions in Congress have the government shutdown. It’s a deliberate effort to deny the American people affordable healthcare, and to avoid a vote on releasing the Epstein files that undoubtedly contain numerous references to Trump. If they didn’t, he would have released them months ago.

So in order to deflect from all the bad news being generated by Trump and Republicans in Congress, the GOP leadership is lashing out the American people. During press avails Friday morning they uniformly attacked citizens seeking to exercise their constitutional rights by viciously maligning them as terrorists before the protests have even begun. That’s how House Majority Whip Tom Emmer framed the upcoming protests…

“This is about one thing and one thing alone. To score political points with the terrorist wing of their party, which is set to hold a hate America rally in DC next week.”

Emmer: "This is about one thing and one thing alone — to score political points with the terrorist wing of their party, which is set to hold a hate America rally in DC next week."

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-10-10T14:25:31.189Z

Of course. Any expression of dissent from Dear Leader Trump is de facto terrorism. And the people who love their country enough to hit the streets to defend it are called haters. But Emmer was not alone. GOP House Speaker, Mike Johnson, said pretty much the same thing to the assembled media…

“This hate America rally that they have coming up for October 18? The Antifa crowd, the pro-Hamas crowd, and the Marxists, they’re all gonna gather on the Mall. We’ve got some House Democrats are selling T-shirts for the event. It is an outrageous gathering for outrageous purposes.”

Mike Johnson: "This hate America rally that they have coming up for October 18? The antifa crowd, the pro-Hamas crowd, and the Marxists, they're all gonna gather on the Mall. It is an outrageous gathering for outrageous purposes … all this has gotta come to an end."

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-10-10T16:25:53.228Z

OH NOES! Not t-shirts! What’s next? Red caps, autographed bibles and $1,000 watches? Johnson’s insults to the millions of people who support the “No Kings” protests are beyond despicable. They are vile and anti-American and designed to incite attacks on the protesters. He knows very well that there are no pro-Hamas or Marxist members of the Democratic Party or the liberal movement. And he knows that there is no Antifa organization. But that there are fascists leading his conservative MAGA crusade.

Johnson went on to accuse Democrats of being “afraid of that crowd.” Never mind that many Democrats will be marching right along side them. And Johnson concluded by demanding that “All of this has gotta come to an end.” Is he demanding that the Constitution be suspended so that Trump can prohibit any protests against him?

On the Senate side, Sen. Roger Marshall joined in the assault on free speech and assembly. He ranted that…

“October 18 is when the protest gets here. This will be a Soros paid-for protest for his professional protesters. The agitators show up. We’ll have to get the National Guard out. Hopefully it will be peaceful. I doubt it…This is all a political show. It’s all a political scam.”

Sen. Roger Marshall: "October 18 is when the protest gets here. This will be a Soros paid-for protest for his professional protesters. The agitators show up. We'll have to get the National Guard out. Hopefully it will be peaceful. I doubt it."

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-10-10T14:41:54.779Z

The Trumpian right continues to allege that protesters are paid by George Soros. But they have never offered any proof of it. And Marshall is threatening the protesters with the deployment of the National Guard. That’s the Trump regime’s way of trying to incite violence, or at least the perception of it for the media. His “hope” that the protests will be peaceful is a lie.

It’s funny that these MAGA-tists are suddenly so concerned about the potential for violence at a demonstration when they are still defending the deadly insurrection that Trump incited on January 6, 2021.

The previous “No Kings” events have all been totally peaceful. And they are pledging the same for the one next weekend. If there is any violence you can bet that it will be incited by Trump’s provocateurs. Just like what he has tried to do in all the cities to which he has sent troops to quell violence that doesn’t exist. He is hankering for a reason to declare martial law. But the people are not going to give it to him. Sadly, that doesn’t mean he won’t do it anyway.

Fox News Lunacy: There’s ‘Universal Agreement’ on this Show for Trump to Get a Nobel Peace Prize

For as long as Donald Trump has been a political figure, he has conducted a shameless campaign for himself to be honored with a Nobel Peace Prize. He may be the first person to ever advocate on his own behalf for the award, and certainly the first American president to do so.

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

Donald Trump

The obsession that Trump has for getting the prize is firmly rooted in the malignant narcissism that feeds so much of his noticeably diseased personality disorders. It’s what drives his relentless fixation on crowd size, television ratings, and public opinion polling. He must always be the center of attention and be seen as the unchallenged victor of any contest, including elections that he clearly lost. So you know this is gonna burst a vein…

SEE THIS: Jimmy Kimmel Crushes Trump in Poll Despite Having No Talent or Ratings (According to Trump)

The Trump campaign for the peace prize has been faithfully carried out by his Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News. And on Thursday Fox Business host, Stuart Varney, revealed just how devoted the network is to Trump’s honorarium ambitions. During an interview with Sen. Joni Ernst (IA-MAGA), Varney prefaced a question with a disclosure of the network’s position of the subject…

Varney: There’s virtually universal agreement on this program that the president should get the Nobel Peace Prize. After all, if Obama can get one for doing very little, surely President Trump can get one for bringing peace.
Ernst: Exactly. President Trump is the president of peace.

VARNEY: There's virtually universal agreement on this program that the president should get the Nobel Peace Prize. After all, if Obama can get one for doing very little, surely President Trump can get one for bringing peace.JONI ERNST: Exactly. President Trump is the president of peace.

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-10-09T15:24:56.350Z

Exactly! And what president has ever accumulated a record that was more deserving than Trump? After all, he has forcefully threatened virtually every American ally with both military and economic punishment if they failed to obey his demands. And he has racked up a resume that includes – but is not limited to – the following uber-peaceful accomplishments…

  • He abandoned Ukraine to his pal Vladimir Putin in Russia.
  • He blows up boats in the Caribbean that may be innocent fishermen.
  • He has been convicted of 34 felonies.
  • He is an adjudicated rapist.
  • He has proposed invading and annexing other sovereign nations (Greenland, Panama, Canada).
  • He is deploying military troops to American cities that he calls “war zones,” and threatens to arrest their elected representatives.
  • He led a deadly insurrection on January 6, 2021, in an effort to undermine democracy.

Has there ever been a more deserving candidate for a Nobel Peace Prize? Even the issue that Varney and others in the MAGA media are currently discussing is a dubious justification for Trump to be honored. They are saying that his efforts to secure a peace deal between Israel and Hamas should merit his getting the award.

However, Trump’s peace plan for Gaza is far from complete. What’s more, it is fundamentally the same as one proposed by President Biden in May of 2024. That one was resisted by Israeli president Benjamin Netanyahu, who was under pressure from his far-right legislators to reject it. He also may have had an incentive to prevent Biden from achieving peace, in order to boost Trump’s electoral prospects and then agree to the same plan during Trump’s term. Which appears to be what has happened.

It is also difficult to ignore the fact that Trump has been an avid supporter of Netanyahu, and backed him to do whatever he wanted to do in Gaza. Which has led to the deaths of more than 68,000 Palestinians to date. That is hardly cause to grant an award for peace.

The support by Fox News for Trump to get the peace prize is purely political and nonsensical. On a previous program they said Trump was worthy simply because he berated Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an Oval Office meeting. The behavior of Trump and vice-president Vance was atrocious. But Fox and Friends co-host, Rachel Campos-Duffy, who happens to be married to Trump’s Transportation Secretary, Sean Duffy, gushed that “If he doesn’t get the Nobel Peace Prize after this, that thing means nothing.” And as usual, the opposite of that is the truth. If Trump does get the prize, it means less than nothing.

UPDATE I: On this day Trump advanced his Nobel campaign by posting four “news” articles, advocating for him to get the Peace Prize, from Fox News, Washington Post, Breitbart, and Newsmax, whose laughably kiss-ass headline was “Trump Shouldn’t Just Win the Nobel Prize, It Should Be Renamed After Him.”

UPDATE II: IS TRUMP GONNA CRY?
Nobel Peace Prize awarded to Venezuela’s María Corina Machado.

This part of the Prize Committee’s statement seems important: “When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognize courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist.”

Trump Threatens to Jail Chicago Governor and Mayor in Another Step Toward Fascist Dictatorship

The path to the totalitarian dystopia that Donald Trump craves is lined with threats, insults and meritless indictments of his plethora of perceived enemies. This alleged “strongman” does nothing but whine about his victimhood, while seeking to intimidate and/or imprison anyone who dares to offer even a mild criticism.

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

Donald Trump, Twitter

In the nine months since his reoccupation of the White House, Trump has sicced his regime attack puppets on the Democratically elected representatives of the people throughout the nation, including New York Attorney General Letitia James, California Senator Adam Schiff, Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett, etc. As well as patriots such as Federal Reserve Board member Lisa Cook, philanthropist George Soros, comedian Jimmy Kimmel, and former FBI Director James Comey. Are those the acts of a strong man?

SEE THIS: WOW! Even Fox News Media and Legal Analysts Bash Trump’s Bogus James Comey Indictments

On Wednesday morning Trump lashed out again at a pair of elected representatives who failed to show him the worshipful adoration to which he feels entitled. Governor JB Pritzker of Illinois and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson are among those who have steadfastly resisted Trump’s efforts to invade American cities with military troops in order to suppress dissent and free speech. Trump posted a noxious comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, decreeing that the…

“Chicago Mayor should be in jail for failing to protect Ice Officers! Governor Pritzker also!”

As usual, Trump’s outrage is rooted in fantastical fallacies emanating from his acutely dysfunctional brain. Neither Pritzker nor Johnson have violated any laws, and Trump doesn’t even bother to cite any violations. He complains about them “failing to protect Ice Officers,” which is not against the law. Nor is it the duty of state or local law enforcement.

What’s more, ICE officers are themselves supposed to be law enforcement agents. Are they incapable of protecting themselves? That’s like demanding a police escort for police officers. Although, considering the quality of recruiting in Trump’s ICE regiments, perhaps they do need protection.

Gov. Pritzker was asked about Trump’s threat by NBC correspondent Jacob Soboroff. He replied…

“Let’s start with the idea that this is a convicted felon. I mean, think about that. This is a convicted felon who is threatening to jail me. I gotta say that this guy is unhinged. He’s insecure. He’s a wannabe dictator. And there’s one thing I really want to say to Donald Trump: If you come for my people, you come through me. So come and get me.”

Pritzker: “This is a convicted felon…who is threatening to jail me. This guy is unhinged. He's insecure. He's a wannabe dictator. And there's one thing I really want to say to Donald Trump: If you come for my people, you come through me. So come and get me.”

The Bulwark (@thebulwark.com) 2025-10-08T17:48:47.449Z

Mayor Johnson also commented on the threat during an interview on CNN saying that…

“This president is unstable, unhinged, a double-minded individual that quite frankly is a threat to our democracy. It’s certainly not the first time that Donald Trump has called for the arresting of a Black man unjustly. I’m not going anywhere. I’m going to stay firm as the mayor of this amazing city, which was voted nine years in a row the ‘Best Big City in America.’ And we’re going to defend all of Chicago.”

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson: "This president is unstable, unhinged, a double-minded individual that quite frankly is a threat to our democracy. It's certainly not the first time that Donald Trump has called for the arresting of a Black man unjustly."

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-10-08T15:53:36.466Z

It is notable that both the Mayor and the Governor chose to describe Trump as “unhinged” and mentioned his looming threat to democracy. Those are both symptomatic of personality disorders that plague Trump. He is hopelessly removed from reality, And he has a determination to reign as dictator.

Trump is following the model of his idols Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jong Un. And if we the people of America don’t stand against him we will lose the freedom that was bestowed upon us by our founders. This is not a drill!

LOLOL: Jimmy Kimmel Crushes Trump in Poll Despite Having No Talent or Ratings (According to Trump)

Nothing is more devastating to Donald Trump than any affront to his massive yet fragile ego. He is perpetually obsessed with numbers related to his public profile: crowd size, ratings and polls. And he refers to them incessantly, generally citing only those that are flagrantly biased in his favor, misrepresenting their findings, or simply making them up.

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

Donald Trump, Stock Market

Lately Trump has taken a special interest in late night comedy shows on TV. Particularly Jimmy Kimmel Live, whose program Trump managed to get suspended for a few days because Kimmel dared to tell jokes that revealed the truth about Trump. When Kimmel was brought back on Trump suffered a severe emotional breakdown, manifesting in a barrage of typically Trumpian insults and threats…

SEE THIS: Toddler Trump Throws Tantrum, Threatens to Sue ABC for Restoring Jimmy Kimmel and Free Speech

Ever since his return to the air, Kimmel has demonstrated that he has not been intimidated by the Trump regime and has no intention of softening his comedic approach to the Crybaby-in-Chief. On Monday night Kimmel’s monologue (video below) featured a poll wherein Trump was soundly beaten by Kimmel in approval ratings. This is just the sort of news that leads to a Trump meltdown. Kimmel began by saying that…

“According to YouGov, which is a serious polling site, I am more popular than the president of the United States. Remember the guy who keeps saying I have no ratings? Well, that makes two of us.

“They polled more than a 1,000 people and I lead Trump by 16 points. I’m at plus 3, he’s at minus 13. It’s nice, but considering the fact that I’m not a convicted felon, a friend of Jeffrey Epstein, and I’ve never paid off a porn star, or sent a team of masked goons into a park to pull an old lady away from her grandchildren, I feel like my rating should be higher maybe than this. At this point finding a toenail in your salad has a 7 point lead over Donald Trump.”

JIMMY KIMMEL BEATS TRUMP!"According to YouGov, which is a serious polling site, I am more popular than the president of the United States. Remember the guy who keeps saying I have no ratings? Well, that makes two of us."

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-10-07T16:51:14.695Z

OUCH! Kimmel makes a good point about his ratings being the low side despite the fact that he isn’t a repulsive slimeball with a criminal record. Kimmel still surpasses Trump handily even after all of Trump’s slanderous outrage and relentless and defamatory efforts to muddy up Kimmel’s reputation. And yet, Kimmel continues to take the high road and express a little sympathy for poor baby Trump…

“I hope he doesn’t see this. You know I don’t like to upset him. But I think he might be upset because the White House put out a statement this afternoon – this is a real statement.

‘Over 77 million Americans showed up on election day to cast their ballots for president Donald J. Trump, who is delivering on his overwhelming mandate to put America first. Jimmy Kimmel prays every night to garner a fraction of that support to keep his show on air after ratings dropped 64% last week. Sad!’

“You know what else is sad? That the president of the United States has a lower approval rating than Diddy and diarrhea. That’s what’s sad. If he’s looking to improve his approval ratings, I have an idea. Release the Epstein files.”

Trump is unlikely to take Kimmel’s advice. But that’s only because he knows that his name is plastered all over the pages of the Epstein files. Which is also why Trump is constantly trying to change the subject to distract the American people. He’s sending military troops to invade several peaceful American cities. He’s blowing up possibly innocent fisherman in the Caribbean. And he orchestrated a government shutdown that will cause real harm for millions of Americans.

But at least they won’t be talking about the Epstein files. Oh, wait. They still are.

DELUSIONAL: Trump Thinks He Won a Lawsuit Against the Associated Press that He Actually Lost

Concern abut the noticeably deteriorating mental acuity of Donald Trump has been an active topic of discussion for months (years?). And since his reoccupation of the White House this year, it has only accelerated. This is a problem that puts the nation – and, in fact, the whole world – at risk.

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

Donald Trump, Insane, Straight Jacket

The past few weeks have seen Trump delivering speeches that have raised questions about his ability to perform the duties of the presidency. At the United Nations he rambled aimlessly about subjects that have nothing to do with the state of the world’s affairs or the foreign policy of the United States. At a celebration of the Navy’s anniversary he wandered off into some of his purely political fixations. And throughout all of it Trump lied and whined petulantly about his imagined victimhood.

SEE THIS: Trump Whines that ‘All They Do Is Hit Trump’ and Decrees That ‘They’re Not Allowed To Do That’

The troubling spectacle of watching a president devolve cognitively has renewed talk of his removal from office via the 25th Amendment of the Constitution. His flagrant lying, seething hostility, and thuggish threats are all symptomatic of mental illness. And much of what Trump says is just plain delusional. For example, one of the bizarre statements he made at the Navy event was entirely removed from reality.

“We got sued by the Associated Press, and they lost. In fact the judge was so good, he’s calling it the Gulf of America. He’s got all of the approvals. You have to do that too. To the very liberal Associated Press. They got thrown out of court. In fact they’re almost not allowed to cover me anymore because of that.”

Trump: "We got sued by the Associated Press, and they lost. In fact, the judge was so good he said, 'He's calling it the Gulf of America. He's got all the approvals' … they got thrown out of court. In fact, they're almost not allowed to cover me anymore because of that. It was a big hit."

All of that is simply untrue. Although it is consistent with Trump’s animosity toward the free press that he has repeatedly maligned as “the enemy of the people.” He began attacking the AP after they refused to comply with his preposterous attempt to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. In a fit of fury he banished them from the White House and other presidential press access. The AP filed a lawsuit to restore their rights. And contrary to Trump’s assertion, they did not lose. As reported by – appropriately – the AP

“[A] federal appeals panel handed The Associated Press an incremental loss on Friday in its continuing battle with the Trump administration over access by its journalists to cover presidential events. By a 2-1 margin, judges on the three-judge U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington granted Trump a stay in enforcement of a lower-court ruling that the administration had improperly punished the AP for the content of its speech.”

To be clear, the AP actually won their lawsuit against Trump in a lower court that ruled that he could not block them from access to Trump in places like the Oval Office or Air Force One. A three judge panel of the appeals court only granted Trump a stay on that ruling pending his appeal. The ruling was not overturned. The AP did not get thrown out of court. And Trump’s claim that “they’re almost not allowed to cover me anymore,” is just plain nuts.

The AP isn’t the only media outlet that Trump has sought to ban. He also evicted the Wall Street Journal from certain press events after they published a birthday note that Trump wrote to his pedo-pal, Jeffrey Epstein.

What’s more, Trump has filed numerous lawsuits against the press, including ABC News, CBS News, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and CNN, for what amounts to hurting his feelings. But what else would you expect from an aspiring authoritarian who began his second term by declaring himself the king of the White House press corps?

Trump’s FBI Boss, Kash Patel, Attacks the ‘Circus Animals’ at MSNBC for Reporting Accurately

The regime of Donald Trump has been feverishly pursuing a campaign of retribution against any and all opponents of his anti-American, authoritarian aspirations. Even mild critics of Trump are targeted for termination or other punishment for daring to show fealty to the law and the Constitution.

This week a victim Trump’s wrath was fired for refusing to stage a perp walk for former FBI Director, James Comey, when he was indicted on trumped up charges of lying to Congress. Such fabricated optics are explicitly illegal under federal law because their only purpose is to tarnish defendants and undermine their presumption of innocence that is protected by the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. Not that Trump & Co. care about the proper application of the law.

SEE THIS: WOW! Even Fox News Media and Legal Analysts Bash Trump’s Bogus James Comey Indictments

Reports of the FBI official’s firing were published by several news outlets, including Reuters, CBS News, and MSNBC. However the MSNBC report drew the attention of Trump’s FBI director, Kash Patel, who posted a comment on Twitter/X lashing out at the network in a manner that most resembles an infantile Internet troll. Which is precisely what Patel was prior to being recruited by Trump to run the FBI.

Trump's un-American and unqualified FBI director, Kash Patel, posts a chilling attack on a news network that he and Trump despise because it dares to report honestly about them.

Patel’s insulting characterization of MSNBC journalists as “ass clowns” and slobbering “circus animals” is profoundly inappropriate for any government official, much less for one of the nation’s top figures in law enforcement. They are childish and dehumanizing remarks that demean the office and inflame division and hostility toward the agency.

Furthermore, Patel calling MSNBC a “factory of disinformation” is both utterly unfounded and even ironic, considering Trump’s reliance on networks of proven liars like Fox News and Newsmax, who paid multi-million settlements for blatantly lying.

Patel’s complaint about MSNBC is that the network reported that he had fired an agent who refused to participate in an unlawful and brazenly political charade to humiliate Comey. Patel claimed that MSNBC “has no facts” to support their reporting. However, in his very next sentence he actually admits the MSNBC was right, saying that “In this @fbi, follow the chain of command or get relieved.” So he is confirming the story that an agent was “relieved” because he refused to follow what was an illegal order.

What’s more, Patel is lying about felons Roger Stone, Peter Navarro, and Steve Bannon, being perp walked. That never happened. While there may have been some media present for their arrests, it was incidental. It was not staged, encouraged, or intentional, on the part of the arresting agents or FBI leadership.

The fact that Patel would post a comment that is so repulsively inappropriate is just further proof of how ridiculously unfit he is for the office that Trump appointed him to. He has fired many other agents and officials in his short time as FBI director, including one recently for merely having a pride flag in his office – ten years ago. And more former agents are suing the Bureau for terminating them out of retribution for having done their jobs investigating and/or prosecuting convicted felon Trump.

This is further evidence of the model of fascist government that Trump is following. He is weaponizing the Justice Department against his perceived enemies. But worse, he is making all Americans less safe by eliminating so many highly experienced, senior officials who devoted their careers to public service and law enforcement. All to satisfy the ego and power obsession of wannabe dictator Donals Trump.

SRSLY? Kari Lake Says Trump Has ‘the Greatest Sense of Humor of Any Modern Day President…Ever’

Perhaps the most important function of a totalitarian regime is its propaganda aimed at casting the leader as a giant among men with superior intellect, infallible instincts, and unshakeable courage. Which explains why Donald Trump’s propagandists work so hard to make people believe that he is a near deity whose power cannot be challenged.

Donald Trump, Mocking Disability

The tricky part is that they also need Trump to come off as an everyman to whom all of his subjects can relate. And with that in mind his PR team needs to convince the masses that he has a genial personality, some measure of empathy, and a sense of humor. But given Trump’s well known personality disorders, that’s a task with an extraordinarily high degree of difficulty.

SEE THIS: Trump’s 97% Solution is Further Evidence of His Declining Mental Acuity and Pathological Lying

Now That Trump has orchestrated a shutdown of the U.S. government, the blame game has begun in earnest to politically tarnish whichever party is determined to be responsible for it. That shouldn’t be hard considering that Republicans are in control of both houses of Congress and the presidency, and that they have openly celebrated the shutdown as a long hoped for opportunity to cause great damage to the governmental institutions they despise.

Republicans have no rational argument for continuing the shutdown. And they are taking most of the heat from the public for having caused it. Consequently, they have resorted to a campaign of ridiculing Democrats as a substitute for engaging in a cogent debate.

The campaign of mockery includes a noxious and racist fake video, posted by Trump, of House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries in a sombrero, and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer spouting obscenities. And that was supposed to be funny. However, when the public reaction to it was overwhelming disgust, Republicans complained that Democrats just don’t have any sense of humor.

Among those making that charge was Trump’s head of the U.S. Agency for Global Media, Kari Lake. She appeared on the right-wing network, Newsmax, with Chris Salcedo to elaborate…

Salcedo: The left is in full collapse. They can’t argue issues anymore. So they argue, “Stop making fun of my stupid policies.” Unreal, isn’t it?
Lake: And they don’t have a sense of humor. That’s funny, no matter how you slice it it’s funny. The memes that have come out of that, and seeing the sombrero everywhere, it just made me laugh.

And if we can’t laugh, my goodness, how do we get through difficult times like we’re seeing right now? I think it’s hilarious. Good for president Trump for having the greatest sense of humor of any modern day president we’ve ever seen, and keeping us in stitches over everything that he’s been putting out on social media.

WHUT? Lake thinks that Trump has “the greatest sense of humor of any modern day president we’ve ever seen”? Now THAT is really funny. Trump couldn’t even show up once to the annual White House Correspondents Dinners, where comedians – and the president – get to crack jokes about politics, and sometimes themselves. His idea of a joke is to ridicule the poor, minorities, the disabled, women, and always those on his personal enemies list. He’s just plain cruel.

Lake also thinks that Democrats need to get a sense of humor. Really? Trump and his MAGA minions got Stephen Colbert canceled (but not until next May). They got Jimmy Kimmel thrown off the air (for a few days). Trump celebrated those victories for censorship by declaring that Jimmy Fallon and Seth Myers would be next.

Republicans all cheered this muzzling of comedians that was orchestrated by Trump and his fascist regime. And yet, the MAGA GOP is incensed that Democrats don’t find Trump’s flagrant racism funny.

However, there are some significant differences between Trump’s pathetic, allegedly humorous put downs of Jeffries and Schumer, and the Democrats’ response to it. First of all, no Democrat has censored Trump or any other Republican for their lame attempts at comedy. And secondly, the Democrats’ humor is based on the politics and policies of Trump and the GOP, while Trump’s humor is just infantile invectives and bigotry aimed at society’s most vulnerable.

The fact that Lake and other Trumpists actually think that they can sell the preposterous notion that Trump is America’s funniest president is downright hilarious. But there is nothing funny about how Trump & Company malign Democrats and disadvantaged Americans. And laugh so heartily while doing it.
