Trump Gets Slammed With a Lawsuit to Halt His Sleazy Truth Social Insider Trading Scam

Posted by on August 12, 2026 at 4:14 pm. 0 Comments :

The continuing saga of Donald Trump and his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, has just posted a new chapter of corruption and criminality. The website that Trump launched after he was banned from Twitter for inciting violence has been a financial fiasco from its inception.

Donald Trump, Twitter

On Wednesday morning it was reported that a federal lawsuit has been filed against Trump to halt a creative new method of fleecing his flock and extorting funds from conflicted enterprises seeking favors from his administration. The sleazy product offering from Truth Social was a thinly veiled attempt at illegally selling access to insider information.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Scheme to Monetize Insider Trading on Truth Social is Getting Ripped By Republicans

The concept of making people pay for access to official government information that belongs to the public is profoundly corrupt. It gives the wealthy buyers market-moving data before the general public gets it. That’s the definition of insider trading. As reported by the Associated Press…

“The suit comes after his media company, Trump Media & Technology, rolled out a new subscription service earlier this month charging Wall Street firms as much as $100,000 a month to get his posts faster so they can trade off them.

“‘A president selling priority access to news he himself generates for the benefit of a private company he controls is so blatantly corrupt and unconstitutional that it would have been hard to even fathom just a few years ago,” said Seth Stern, chief of advocacy at Freedom of the Press Foundation, a plaintiff in the case along with news outlet The Intercept.'”

A comment by Truth Social tried to dismiss the complaint by claiming that selling such access is common in the media business. That’s true. However, other media companies are selling access to the work product of their own journalists. Trump is selling access to what he is doing himself. And it’s not just him. Other senior government officials are also part of the product, including Vice-President JD Vance, FBI Director Kash Patel, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy.

What Trump is doing is analogous to a quarterback selling his game plans to gamblers so that they can place bets on the game. Except with Trump it’s not a game. It includes national security information. Wall Street brokers are more than willing to shell out for advance notice of Trump’s actions in the Strait of Hormuz. And what would stop a clandestine Iranian operative from buying the same access?

This “service” from Truth Social seems glaringly unlawful on its face. So what would cause them to offer it? It might have something to with the fact that the company is a business basket case. It’s stock is trading in single digits, a 90% collapse from it’s high mark. It is bleeding cash and users.

The company’s most recent quarterly report shows a loss of $238 million on paltry revenue of less than $2 million. What’s more, their users have declined a devastating 36% year over year. And this is the year that Trump returned to office and claims to be enjoying his best approval ratings ever.

The lawsuit challenging Trump’s new scam is well founded, and could result in the offering being prohibited. But there would still be plenty of legally suspect activity going on with Trump’s enterprise. In fact, that’s been an ongoing feature of Trump’s business practices. What follows are some examples…

YOU’RE FIRED: Trump Media’s CEO, Devin Nunes, Gets Booted From the Failing Truth Social Company
Devin Nunes, who had no relevant business experience whatsoever, proceeded to run the sham operation into the ground. He packaged it with a variety of unrelated undertakings, such as cryptocurrency, mutual funds, gambling, and even an attempt at AI that seemed to go rogue.

Trump’s Cratering Truth Social Stock Reflects the Catastrophe of Everything That Trump Does
Trump Media and Technology Group Corp. plans to issue a new cryptocurrency, which will be distributed among its shareholders. […] The coins won’t represent ownership of DJT shares, and may not be transferable or exchanged for cash.

Trump’s Scammy Media Stock, and Truth Social Parent, Completes a Classic Pump and Dump
The merger of the Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) with TAE Technologies, a nuclear fusion startup. TAE’s energy products are at present speculative and they have no facilities generating any power resources. Nevertheless, the news caused TMTG’s stock to surge 33%, but two weeks later reversed course back to around $12.80. So anyone who jumped in on the news is already suffering a 25% loss.

Truth Social Disease: Ads on Trump’s Twitter Ripoff are Mostly Scams and Trump-Fluffing Merch
Advertisers are afraid of their ads being juxtaposed with hate speech and other noxious content. Consequently, the only advertisers who are willing to shell out are sketchy scammers, conspiracy theorists, and junk peddlers.

Trump Mulls Declaring a National Emergency to Rig Elections, Says ‘Stranger Things Have Happened’

Posted by on August 11, 2026 at 3:17 pm. 0 Comments :

The desperation of Donald Trump and his Republican confederates continues to multiply like measles in MAGAville. With the midterm elections drawing nearer, Trump and the cult that worships him recognize the abysmal prospects of their electoral future.

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

Donald Trump, Constitution

Through it all, Trump manages to maintain an impressive degree of delusion. Despite every poll showing his approval ratings at record lows, he insists that he is enjoying historic levels of popularity. Every day he posts multiple comments on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, saying that he’s never been more beloved.

SEE THIS: Delusional Trump: ‘My REAL Polling Numbers Are the Best They Have Ever Been’ – OK Grandpa

Trump’s departure from reality is more than just an old man dwelling in a senile stupor. He still occupies the White House, with all of the powers that go along with it. And his exercise of those powers has never been marked by intelligence, reason, or respect for the law, even when his mental faculties were marginally functional.

On Tuesday morning Trump did another phone-in interview with a shamelessly sycophantic Trump-fluffer and conspiracy crackpot, Wayne Allen Root, who hosts a program on a MAGA media website. Root raised the topic of the imminent elections and sought Trump’s opinion on a dangerously unlawful and anti-American proposal.

Root: Let me put an idea in your head OK. Because it’s so hard to get the Senate to do anything now, they’re at recess, they don’t get anything done. If they never get the Save America Act done, you have the right to declare a national security emergency for elections. And the Supreme Court ruled in 1983, under Reagan…that if you declare a national security emergency as the president of the United States, they can’t challenge it. It can only be overturned by a two-thirds vote of both houses of Congress. So if you do this in the next month, we will get photo ID, proof of citizenship and a limit to mail-in ballots.
Trump: Let me just say stranger things have happened. I’ll leave it at that.

Root’s advocacy for Trump declaring a “national security emergency for elections” is preposterous. No such authority exists. Particularly by way of Root’s absolutely asinine suggestion that the declaration would be justified if the Senate failed to pass Trump’s “Save America Act” (aka Voter Suppression Act). The inability of a partisan Congress to pass a bill favored by an aspiring totalitarian president is not a national emergency.

To the contrary, the Constitution gives the states sole authority over administering elections. And the “National Emergencies Act” does not supersede the Constitution or suspend of any of its provisions during a declared emergency. So even if an emergency were declared, it wouldn’t give Trump the right to impose voting regulations (i.e. photo ID, proof of citizenship, limit mail-in ballots) on the states. More detail here.

Furthermore, Congress does have the power to terminate a national emergency by passing a joint resolution to do so. Although that resolution would require the president’s signature. If the president vetoes the resolution, Congress can override it with a two-thirds supermajority in both houses. That’s a high bar, but not impossible when considering the stakes. After all, Trump has majorities in both houses of Congress now, but still can’t get his Voter Suppression law passed.

Failing that, the emergency declaration can also be terminated by state governments, businesses, or affected individuals who can sue in federal court if they believe the declaration exceeds statutory or constitutional limits. And contrary to Root’s claim, the Supreme Court can strike down actions tied to an alleged emergency if the president oversteps their authority.

While the prospects of a national emergency declaration by Trump to take over elections should not be dismissed, neither should they feed irrational anxieties and fear. There are still guardrails available in the legislative and judicial branches of government that would defeat Trump’s tyrannical aspirations.

It is worrisome enough that Trump even entertains this idea with flippant comments that “stranger things have happened.” And because Trump and his MAGA-tist cult are open to such breaches of the Constitution, the rest of us must remain vigilant and committed to preserving American democracy and the principles that sustain it.

Trump Makes Truly Bizarre and Ignorant Pleas for Iran to Pay Reparations for the War He Started

Posted by on August 10, 2026 at 3:08 pm. 0 Comments :

When Trump launched his reckless and illegal war against Iran in February, he made repeated assurances that it wouldn’t last more than a few days. That was quickly amended to 4-6 weeks. And that was amended to say that he had already won the war, despite the fact that he is still fighting it going into the sixth month.

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

Trump baby with Iran map

It’s not unusual for Trump to make grossly hyperbolic assertions that are unrelated to reality. He brags about the currently floundering economy being the best it has ever been. He claims to have eliminated illegal immigration. He thinks he is achieving the highest poll numbers of his term in office. And he relentlessly insists that Iran has been defeated and is begging for peace.

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

The latest ludicrous claim by Trump about Iran came in a comment that he posted Monday morning to his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. It was a tediously long tirade that included his flagrant falsehood that…

“Representatives of the Islamic Republic of Iran are asking for compensation for the damage done to them during the last five month Military Conflict…even though it was never mentioned in any of our negotiations or meetings!”

Let’s set aside Trump’s cartoon characterization of the war, that has seen at least 12 American fatalities and hundreds of injuries, as a merely “Military Conflict.” His claim that Iran had never mentioned compensation before as a condition for peace or a ceasefire is just another example of Trump’s ignorance about what is actually happening. To the contrary, Iran has been seeking reparations from the very start of the war. The evidence below was from a report published on March 12, 2026, less than two weeks after Trump launched his attack.

Iran’s demand for compensation was reiterated in June. As reported by The Guardian…

“According to the interim deal signed in June, a schedule to end sanctions and a plan for compensation would be part of the final deal, and negotiations would address frozen assets.”

So does Trump really not know that reparations were discussed in prior negotiations? Or is he lying to pretend that they weren’t? Either way, it would be a disqualifying state of affairs for a commander-in-chief to be either that ignorant or that dishonest.

Trump went on to make some bizarre claims that Iran should pay reparations to the U.S. for things that happened many years ago and had nothing to do with this war. Most preposterous was his call for Iran to pay compensation to the families of the Iranian protesters who were killed by the Iranian regime. So Trump is now acting as an agent for civilians in Iran? What’s more, these are not just suggestions made out of concern for the victims. Trump added that…

“I have instructed my representatives to put this firmly into any, and all, future negotiations.”

Clearly Trump has no intention of making a deal. Not with these insane demands. But there is a strong possibility that he will agree to terms that are favorable to Iran, because he needs to get out of this quagmire, and preferably before the midterm elections. So Trump might just declare victory and retreat. Iran is well aware of this, and of Trump’s weaknesses, and they are prepared to wait him out.

Unfortunately, the losers in all of this will be the exploited American soldiers who are being used as pawns, with no rational objective or benefit, and the American people who are paying for Trump’s foolishness with both dollars and the lives of their families and neighbors. And Trump couldn’t care less about any of it. Which is why he can so easily lie and remain so staggeringly ignorant.

HALLELUJAH! The Affordability Crisis is Over According to Fox News – After Talking to Some CEOs

Posted by on August 9, 2026 at 3:00 pm. 1 Comments :

The American economy is presently in what is called a “K-shaped economy,” wherein the rich are getting richer and the middle-class and poor are struggling to keep their heads above water. It’s a rather common situation during Republican administrations that favor the wealthy and corporations.

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

Fox News, Maria Bartiromo

Under Donald Trump this economic disparity has gotten worse. But the only thing that you will ever hear from him and his MAGA cult cohorts is that things are fantastic because the stock market is rising. Never mind that most Americans have no market holdings to benefit from any of that. The delusions that plague Trump prevent him from seeing the economic realities. Or even the realities of his abysmal approval ratings…

SEE THIS: Delusional Trump: ‘My REAL Polling Numbers Are the Best They Have Ever Been’ – OK Grandpa

On Sunday morning Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda (aka Fox News) went to work to shore up Trump’s standing on the economy that he has wrecked. The “Curvy Couch” potatoes of Fox and Friends welcomed their network colleague – and Fox’s Senior Trump-Fluffer – Maria Bartiromo to the program to fire up the gaslighting. Bartiromo engaged in the following exchange with the weekend co-hosts…

Griff Jenkins: So Maria, let me pick up on this past jobs report quickly and get your assessment on the fact that, you know, Trump is constantly talking about record markets you mentioned there, rising wages, and what we also see, fewer layoffs. But this week already we’re gonna be hearing Democrats about how horrible the economy is.
Bartiromo: That’s just propaganda. I mean, look, things are going well. And I think we all feel it. Look at where we are right now. You’ve got job creation. You’ve got economic growth. You’ve got $18 trillion of new investments. The president’s main priority has been to put America first […] But when you actually look at what’s going on, things feel pretty good. I’ve spoken with a number of CEOs who tell me that business is up, strongly. And it has to do partly with the “Big Beautiful Bill.”
Rachel Campos-Duffy: I hear you, and that’s all great news, and that’s what Americans need to hear. But what do you think is leading to the disconnect in maybe some voters and Americans not feeling that way? So why is that do you think?
Bartiromo: I think it’s messaging. I really do. I mean the Republicans need to do a better job of telling their story and communicating what the “Big Beautiful Bill” has done for earnings.

And there you have it! Let’s set aside for the time being that they were all lying that the recent jobs report was positive (there was a decline of 23,000 jobs), about rising wages (they are trailing inflation), and about fewer layoffs (which have exceeded 300,000 year to date). So no one should be surprised if Democrats speak to those facts.

Bartiromo’s response, however, was among the most reality-averse imaginable. She is pitching a preposterously rosy economy that includes such fallacies as Trump’s made up “$18 trillion of new investments,” and his “main priority…to put America first.” Which is only true if you believe that fighting a war in Iran, imposing inflationary tariffs throughout the world, and building vanity projects around D.C. are putting America first.

The most ridiculous part of Bartiromo’s commentary was her conclusion that “things feel pretty good” because she’s “spoken with a number of CEOs.” And who would know better than a bunch of rich corporate executives how it feels to be struggling to pay for groceries, gas, housing, healthcare, etc.?

What’s more, if the ungrateful American people who are complaining about such financial burdens were only subjected to better messaging – i.e. propaganda/gaslighting – they wouldn’t feel burdened at all. So maybe it’s time for Trump to have Congress pass another bill that they call the “Everything is Beautiful So STFU Bill.”

That should solve all of the problems that Trump and his MAGA Republican confederates are whining about. It will juice his approval ratings, and stop the electoral Blue Wave that’s coming in November. And it will accomplish all of that without having to actually do anything that actually helps anybody. So it fits the GOP playbook perfectly.

Remember When Trump Swore He’d Sign No Bills Until After His ‘Save America Act’ – Guess What?

Posted by on August 8, 2026 at 3:30 pm. 0 Comments :

If there is one thing that Donald Trump can be relied upon for, it’s being completely unreliable. His word is his bond to renege on whatever he said and do something else entirely that he thinks is in his best interest at the time. That’s true whether he’s talking to voters, reporters, Republicans, or even wartime adversaries in Iran.

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

Donald Trump

Trump’s erratic tendencies make it impossible to predict what he will be fixating on at any given time. One moment he will be laser-focused on obliterating Iran, and the next he will be bragging about his ballroom/military center. Lately he has been obsessed with passing his “Save America Act” (aka Voter Suppression Act). Although he can’t manage to get it passed through persuasion, so he resorts to threats and insults. He recently raged that “Only sick, demented, or deranged people in the House or Senate could vote against THE SAVE AMERICA ACT.”

SEE THIS: IN A PANIC Trump Threatens GOP to Pass His Anti-Voting Act, Because His ‘Reasons’ Are Pure BS

Today marks the five month anniversary of Trump promising that he wouldn’t sign any bill that comes to his desk from Congress unless they have sent him the Voter Suppression bill first. On March 8, Trump swore that “It supersedes everything else. MUST GO TO THE FRONT OF THE LINE. I, as President, will not sign other Bills until this is passed.”

You’ll never guess what happened since then. To no one’s surprise, Trump has signed at least 25 bills into law without having signed the Voter Suppression law first. It is driving the 80 year old toddler nuts that he hasn’t been able to get his way, despite putting tremendous pressure on his fellow Republicans, especially Senate GOP leader, John Thune. But he just doesn’t have the votes, even among Republicans.

Trump has been pushing Thune to terminate the Senate filibuster in order to get his anti-voting bill passed. But he doesn’t have the GOP votes for that either. That hasn’t stopped him from shelling out some preposterous warnings about what will happen if Republicans don’t ditch the filibuster. First of all, Trump insists that Democrats will do it first thing if/when they regain a majority in the Senate. After which…

“The Dumocrats will [by making D.C. and Puerto Rico states] gain 4 Senators, 8 Congressmen, many Electoral and Popular Votes, a stacked Supreme Court with 23 Justices, and I will be, sadly, despite the great job we are doing, the last Republican President!”

REALLY? Trump has previously said that his Voter Suppression bill would “result in Republicans never losing for the next 50 years.” Which is not exactly an argument for free and fair elections. But now Trump is actually working to motivate Democratic voters? Good to know!

OH NOES!!!? More Democrats in Congress?? Fair elections?? A balanced Supreme Court?? And no more crooked Republican presidents?Trump is so SCARED of Dr. Abdul El-Sayed that he has issued a "warning" that most Americans will cheer and work hard to achieve. LFG!

Delusional Trump Whines that Americans are ‘Angry at Republicans, But They’re Not Angry At Me’

Posted by on August 7, 2026 at 3:01 pm. 4 Comments :

It is becoming immensely more challenging every day for Donald Trump and his propaganda factory to make up new excuses for the rapidly escalating animosity that is felt by the American people for him and his MAGA cult. And with the midterm elections approaching, Trump’s political descent will leave him flapping pitifully in his Deflecting Pool for the next two years as the lamest of ducks.

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

King Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

Trump seems to have no awareness of the severity of his situation. He refuses to modify his behaviors or his campaign strategies that are alienating voters. To the contrary, he is tripling down on policies that ignore the real concerns of the American people, in favor of his reckless war mongering, his ego-fluffing projects, his illegal self-enrichment, and his oblivious lies about how universally beloved he is.

SEE THIS: TRUMP: ‘My REAL Polling Numbers Are the Best They Have Ever Been’ – OK Grandpa

Needless to say, the “REAL Polling Numbers” that Trump is referencing exist only in his cartoon brain. He somehow continues to believe that the world adores him and any bad feelings are attributable to someone or something else. That delusion was reiterated on Friday during an interview with Jake Sherman of Punchbowl News (video below), wherein Trump whined that…

“The question is – and they’re asking this question, and I’ve had some great polls recently, real polls, but they’re great polls – If I don’t run will those people go out and vote? And that’s the one thing I can’t tell. I’m gonna ask them to. But I’m just watching guys like you, and you’re very talented people. The question is will they vote? Cause a lot of them are very angry, at Republicans to be honest with you. They’re angry at Republicans, but they’re not angry at me.”

Let’s set aside Trump’s unconstitutional implication that he could run for president again. He can’t. And if he were to try he would be laughed out of the court and the country. The crux of his commentary is his preposterous belief that the American people are only angry with his MAGA Republicans, but certainly not him.

Of course, today’s Republican Party has devolved to such an extent that they are too cowardly and weak to have any opinions of their own. They are wholly controlled by Trump, and they unwaveringly support everything he does and says. So how could people be angry at Republicans without also being angry at the sole source of everything that they do and say?

What’s more, Trump’s total rejection of reality was also confirmed in new polling reported by CNN’s Chief Data Analyst, Harry Enten. He noted that a key group of Trump’s MAGA supporters are ditching the MAGA cult movement.

“The MAGA movement was built among the working class, non-college Americans…Back on October of 2024, on the plus side of the ledger, positive, plus six points…Look at this movement now. Minus 22 points. That is a shift of 28 points…They are shifting away and saying ‘We don’t like MAGA anymore.’ […]

“Maybe they’ve soured on MAGA but they haven’t soured on Trump? Aint the truth…In the 2024 election he won them by 13 points…But look at this now. Minus 19 points…This is a 32 point shift away from the president…’Adios, goodbye Mr. President, We don’t like you anymore.'”

Enten also pointed out that Democrats in Congress have gained significantly over Republicans with this group. So the American people are sick and tired of MAGA, of Republicans, and most of all, of Trump. And no matter how much he tries to pretend that he is the venerated messiah of MAGA-tism, he remains a pathetic loser desperately clinging to a psychotic illusion of idolatry.

Does JD Vance Want to Imprison Trump for ‘Enriching Himself Off of the American Taxpayer’?

Posted by on August 6, 2026 at 3:05 pm. 2 Comments :

When Donald Trump reoccupied the White House last year, he went to great pains to avoid what he considered mistakes during his first occupation. For the most part that meant surrounding himself with drooling sycophants that he could trust to be loyal to him only, rather than to the law or the Constitution or the American people.

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

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

Trump did a pretty good job of that by appointing the most unqualified, incompetent clowns – many recruited directly from Fox News – to his Cabinet and other senior administration posts that he could rest assured would never do anything without his approval, and who would never contradict or challenge him. At least not intentionally. The result is a confederacy of devoted MAGA-tists who worship Dear Leader…

SEE THIS: Trump Gathers His Cabinet Members to Conduct Another Festival of Feckless Trump-Fluffing

While Trump’s flunkies perform down to their expectations most of the time, the instances of unintentional departures from the regime dogma are serious and increasingly frequent. They include U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro contradicting Trump’s lies about vandals doing damage to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, and Secretary of War Crimes Pete Hegseth leaking the depletion of U.S. munitions stockpiles.

However, the most serious propaganda breakdown may have just been perpetrated by Trump’s Vice-President, JD Vance. A few weeks ago Trump made Vance his “Fraud Czar,” presumably to crack down on anyone who tried to move in on mob boss Trump’s territory.

On Thursday, Vance sat down for a friendly interview with Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, during which he came out in favor of prosecuting and imprisoning people who commit fraud at the expense of American taxpayers. He said that…

“I don’t care where you’re from. I don’t care what your name is. If you’re committing fraud against the American people, all of us in public leadership should be trying to stop it and try to throw you in prison for enriching yourself off of the American taxpayer.”

Does that sound like anyone you know? For the record, Donald Trump has been found liable for fraud in civil court for ripping off students of his phony university. He has had his charity shut down for fraudulent misuse of funds. And he was convicted on 34 felony charges of fraud related to his business dealings and association with porn star, Stormy Daniels.

These and numerous other scams were all designed to illegally enriched himself. And now his Fraud Czar is declaring that such behavior will be punished with prosecution and imprisonment. We’ll see. But don’t hold your breath. To date the only actions taken by Trump with regard to fraudsters has been to pardon them and to relieve them of paying any restitution to their victims. The only “victim” that he believes deserves restitution is himself.

Trump Hates America: He is Now Calling Blue States and Cities a ‘Threat to the Country’

Posted by on August 5, 2026 at 4:25 pm. 1 Comments :

The animosity that Donald Trump has regularly shown toward anyone who disagrees with him has lately festered into a seething hatred and declared enmity. His innate bitterness and sociopathy has blossomed into unbridled, venomous hostility.

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

Donald Trump

Throughout his time in public life Trump has displayed disturbing symptoms of antisocial psychoses such as malignant narcissism. He simply cannot tolerate anyone who fails to be sufficiently worshipful. Those personality disorders fuel his loathing of political opponents that goes way beyond the ordinary practice of politics. And they drive him to preposterous extremes.

SEE THIS: Putin Prodigy Trump Calls to Criminalize Democratic Socialism and Deport Its Leaders

Now Trump’s bizarre behaviors have escalated to their natural ends. He has surpassed the common bounds of campaign conflict to a new depth of depravity that amounts to a virtual declaration of war against his fellow Americans. In yet another Fox News interview, lashed out at his Democratic foes saying that…

“The thing they should look at is blue states and blue cities. Cities run by Democrats. Because that’s really the threat to the country. Because they’re a disaster.”

Here is Trump, the alleged president of the UNITED States, calling some of those states the real "threat to the country."The states Trump is talking about (California, New York, Illinois, etc.) are keeping the red states – and the whole country – afloat econimically.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-08-05T10:22:09.099Z

So Trump is no longer satisfied with merely insulting his political foes with infantile nicknames and lying about their records as he usually does. Nope. Now the alleged president of the “United” States of America is accusing many of those states of being a “threat to the country.”

Hopefully Trump won’t act out his deranged ideas by launching military attacks on those he considers to be threats, such as Venezuela and Iran. Although he actually has done that already by ordering his StormTrumpers into blue cities like Minneapolis, where they murdered American citizens.

Trump’s patriotism is severely handicapped by his hatred. It’s notable that the blue states Trump is talking about – California, New York, Illinois, etc. – are the ones that are keeping the red states – and the whole country – afloat economically. Nevertheless, he despises them and the Americans who reside there.

Trump made that abundantly clear on Tuesday in remarks to reporters in the Oval Office. He prefaced his latest hate-mongering harangue by lying that states and cities with Democratic leadership have “vicious, violent crime,” while those run by Republicans “have very little crime.” The opposite is true. Then he elaborated saying that…

“Look at the blue cities…What do they have in common? They’re all dirty. They’re filthy dirty. Their streets are dirty. Their streets smell. Their storefronts are broken. Their trees are all gross. Everything about the place is dirty…It’s really all of them.”

TRUMP: "You go into these cities that are blue… they’re filthy and disgusting."What an anti-American a-hole. Trump is trash-talking cities like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, etc. The biggest, most beautiful cities in America. The most visited vacation destinations.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-08-04T10:19:30.077Z

Remember, Trump is talking about some of the most beautiful cities in the country. They are the cities where the majority of the American people live. They are the cities that produce most of the nation’s wealth. They are the cities that are the most frequent destinations of both domestic and international visitors. And Trump is denigrating them in what appears to be an attempt to destroy them.

Perhaps Trump would like to banish the blue states from the union and be left with his red state dystopia. If he did he would learn the hard way that his red states need the blue states more than the blue states needs them. Which is why Trump doesn’t really want to get rid of the blue states. He just wants to rule over them like slave colonies to provide for his Red States of America.

Ordinarily a party that is running as far behind as the GOP would reconsider their campaign strategy in order to appeal to a broader base of the electorate. But in this case the MAGA Republicans are so beholden to Trump and his unique brand of derangement that they are falling in line with his plan to alienate as many voters as possible by ignoring their needs and focusing on endless wars, vanity projects, and enriching himself. And Trump seems to think that his plan is working.

However, in a peculiar departure from his routine, Trump appears to have adopted some of the platform of the Democratic Party, and more specifically, the policies of progressive Democratic Socialists. In response to a question about the record profits recently reported by Exxon and Chevron, Trump replied that…

“They’re making too much money, based on a shortage, They’re making too much money. I don’t like it. And I should be the last one to say it because I’m a big free enterprise guy, nobody bigger. And you’re gonna see oil, when we’re finished with Iran, you’re gonna see the prices drop through the floor.

“But they made too much money. Chevron, too much money. ExxonMobil, too much. When you look at one company, where they made 12 times what they made the year before, they ought to give some of that back to the public. And they better cut the retail price, the consumer price.”

Trump on oil companies gouging consumers:"They're making too much money…and they ought to give some of that back to the public…and they better cut the retail price."When Democrats say this Fox News and MAGA – and Trump – scream "COMMUNISTS!"

Trump is right. The oil companies are reporting record profits. And it isn’t just because the price of oil has gone up due to Trump’s illegal war against Iran. If prices were only rising due to supply issues, their profits would would remain stable. But they are raising their prices so much that they are generating higher profits, even while people are driving less because they can’t afford the gas. As reported by USA Today…

“ExxonMobil and Chevron last week reported massive second-quarter profits as a result of the war. ExxonMobil said it made $14.5 billion between April 1 through June, up from $7.1 billion in profits during the same time period in 2025. Chevron posted $12 billion in second-quarter profits, a 380% increase over the company’s $2.5 billion in earnings during the second quarter of 2025.”

Accusing corporations of gouging consumers, and calling on them to lower their prices to generate reasonable levels of profit, has long been the policy of Democrats. And whenever Democrats proposed it, Republicans – including Trump – would condemn them as socialists and/or communists. But now that Democratic Socialists are understandably appealing to an ever greater proportion of the electorate, Trump is trying to grab some of that glory for himself.

It’s not going to work. Trump and his MAGA-tist Party have been lambasting Democrats over this for far too long. They can’t just slither in and pretend that they have been for this all along. And by trying to fool the American people this way, he is just letting them know how stupid he thinks they are.

Although Trump himself has been leaning toward some of the worst aspects communism for months. He is the one who has been implementing communist-like control over the “means of production” by taking a role in corporate mergers, demanding multimillion dollar payments from corporations seeking government favors, and forcing corporations to sell parts of the businesses to the government. His mentor, Vladimir Putin, must be so proud.

Trump and company are still, however, opposed to all of the best parts of the Democratic Socialist agenda, which are broadly popular and in the mainstream of American politics. They including things like Social Security, interstate highways, public libraries, Obamacare, and more. And if you need further proof of the Trumpian hypocrisy, check out his comment today on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, wherein he is advocating on behalf of oil companies and the fossil fuel industry so that they can gouge even more profits from struggling Americans…

Trump posted an insane, 27 multi-threaded post on Truth Social of a 7 month old op-ed with the 20 "best" actions he took in 2025.They were all either lies or never actually happened. But this one was particularly ridiculous. He's bragging about things he did to destroy the environment.

Delusional Trump: ‘My REAL Polling Numbers Are the Best They Have Ever Been’ – OK Grandpa

Posted by on August 3, 2026 at 3:11 pm. 0 Comments :

Having a leader who is ignorant and negligent and obsessed with power and greed is bad enough.
But with Donald Trump the United States is also cursed with a White House occupier who lies pathologically and is oblivious to reality.

Donald Trump Messiah

The moral depravity and mental impairments of Trump put America at risk. He is incapable of any behavior that recognizes the needs of others. To the contrary, his perception of himself is as an infallible figure of perfection that borders on the messianic. He has literally said so…

SEE THIS: Wannabe Messiah Trump Claims to Be Standing Up to the ‘Demonic Forces’ Destroying Our Country

Among the symptoms of Trump’s illness is his invention of events that clearly have never happened. They include his insistence that he is winning his reckless and illegal war against Iran; his repetition that he has produced an economic “golden age”; and his hallucinations of Marxists around every corner, including those who are vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflection Pool.

This weekend Trump was busying himself with the critical presidential duty of rage-posting on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. Among the dishonest proclamations and loony self-exalting memes, Trump dropped a comment that was an especially disturbing example of his cognitive collapse. He ranted in part that…

“My REAL Polling Numbers, not those made up by the Fake News Media, are the best they have ever been. […] Don’t believe the Radical Left’s Fake Poll numbers. They are Crooked and Corrupt, just like the Country Destroying Dumocrats are Crooked and Corrupt.”

Trump didn’t bother to provide a link to any of the “REAL Polling Numbers” that are allegedly “the best they have ever been.” But in his defense, that’s only because they don’t exist. A quick glance at the RealClear Politics listing of recent polls reveals the reality that Trump is so far removed from.

It’s notable that every single one of those polls found that a substantial majority of Americans (up to 66%) disapprove of Trump. The average of the polls have Trump more than 19 points underwater. And that’s even with the inclusion of several polls produced by blatantly right-wing operations. Apparently Trump is lumping Fox News, Rasmussen, etc., in with all of the “Radical Left, Crooked and Corrupt, Country Destroying, Fake News, Dumocrats.”

Trump demands that these polls are not to be believed. But he doesn’t offer up any others that he vouches for as believable. Although he does provide some pretty good reasons for his high disapproval in the list of things that that he claims to have accomplished. He cites as his “successes” his work on taxes, jobs, immigration, Iran, and “respect throughout the world.” None of which has been remotely successful. And the American people know that. In fact, Trump is polling negatively on every one of those individual issues.

This isn’t the first time that Trump has claimed to have his highest polling ever. Last month he said the same thing, boasting about having 65% approval. Once again, he didn’t link to any such poll. The poll that he did link to had him at 50%, and even that was by a notoriously biased conservative pollster.

You have to wonder who these comments are aimed at. Does anyone outside of his MAGA cult believe them? Although there is an interpretation of Trump’s comment that is actually accurate. He says that his polling numbers “are the best they have ever been.” So if by “best” he means highest, and by “numbers” he means disapproval, he’s right. These are currently the highest disapproval numbers he’s ever had. But get too attached. It’s very likely that new highs will be released next week.
