Hannity’s Infantile Anti-Biden Tweet Draws a Scorching Backlash Against Trump

Posted by on May 25, 2021 at 1:08 pm. 1 Comments :

No one has ever accused Sean Hannity of being an intellectual giant. And for good reason. He is notoriously uninformed and illogical. His greatest asset as a television pundit is his ability to lie without shame and an inexhaustible supply of arrogance.

Donald Trump Sean Hannity

On Monday evening Hannity thought he was struck with a brilliant inspiration for a tweet to attack President Biden. It elaborated on a theme that Hannity has been trying to popularize for months, with no success whatsoever. Despite his repeated failures, Hannity’s contention that Biden is mentally deficient is contradicted every time Biden speaks publicly. And the American people (according to a Fox News poll!) have already concluded that it’s Donald Trump who is too mentally unsound to serve.

Undaunted, Hannity tweeted this pathetic bit of childishness…

Seriously? This is the level of political discourse provided by the host of a program that Fox News presents with pride every night in primetime? And ironically this comes from someone who has his own peculiar bedtime rituals. Hannity was known to have nighty-night calls with Trump every night after his show.

In all fairness, it isn’t actually any worse than the rest of Fox’s lineup (i.e. Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham, and the “Curvy Couch” potatoes of Fox and Friends). But the one redeeming factor is that this sort of idiocy is so easy to rebut. And Twitter was ready and willing to take on that duty:

Fox News Freaks Out Over New Legos that ‘Could Have Been Designed By David Duke’

Posted by on May 24, 2021 at 5:05 pm. 1 Comments :

Here we go again. Fox News is so desperate for tales of atrocities caused by the “soshalest libruls” that they have to invent them themselves. And to keep their dimwitted viewers hooked on the narcotic of irrational, self-serving hatred, they need to make each successive “scandal” more preposterous than those that came before.

Fox News, Legos

As a follow up to ludicrous stories about the “canceling” of Dr. Seuss and Mr. Potato Head, and the allegations that Vice-President Kamala Harris was peddling her books to migrant children, and President Biden’s sham marriage was exposed when he gave the First Lady a dandelion, we now have the horror of racist Legos. Fox’s Will Cain broke the story Friday with this chilling report that featured a chyron reading “The Left’s Push for Racial Division” …

“Look at Lego. This is Lego’s newest line of diversity toys. This separation, the color coding, living up to every stereotype from hair style to skin color. It looks like it could have been designed by David Duke. This is the opposite of Martin Luther King’s dream for America.

OMG! Legos have burrowed so deeply into American culture from their Scandinavian haven of liberalism that they are now able to launch their long-planned plot to destroy America from within. And they are attacking us at our weakest link – our children – attempting to turn them into Klan Kids with their new set of toys bearing the deceptive theme of “Everyone Is Awesome.”

There’s just one problem with Cain’s breakthrough reporting. It’s total bullpucky! The new Legos set was actually designed to celebrate the diversity of the LGBTQ community. As reported by real journalists at the Guardian…

“The colours of the stripes were chosen to reflect the original rainbow flag, along with pale blue, white and pink representing the trans community, and black and brown to acknowledge the diversity of skin tones and backgrounds within the LGBTQIA+ community.”

Other than that, Fox News was right on the mark, and well on their way to saving the world from … well, whatever nightmare is currently drilling holes into their diseased brains. And you know for sure that if Fox News has gotten so worked up about these wayward Legos, they’re gonna have uncontrollable fits when they hear about what Kellogg’s Cereal is up to…

Jen Psaki to Fox News: ‘I Think You’re Misunderstanding How This Process Actually Works’

Posted by on May 24, 2021 at 12:14 pm. NO Comments :

Monday morning much of the press was reporting that the number of new cases of the coronavirus in the United States has dropped to levels not seen since the summer of 2020. Hospitalizations and deaths have similarly declined. And the Biden administration’s management of vaccination efforts has led to 50% of adults in half the country being fully vaccinated.

Fox News, Peter Doocy

However, as most of the media continues to report the positive aspects of the COVID pandemic trends, there is some downside focus in certain areas. Not surprisingly, the half of the country that has not reached that 50% milestone are mostly Southern and/or Republican states. And the press that is downplaying this news, or not reporting it at all, is, of course, Fox News. At Fox they have more pressing matters to attend to. Like the fake international incident caused by Vice-President Kamala Harris.

It is the objective of Fox News to either ignore any of the success of the Biden administration or to invent failures. For instance, recent Fox News fakeries included a “scandal” over Biden wearing a face mask, and Sean Hannity posting a flagrantly deceptive video of Biden.

So while there is much to be grateful for as the nation gets closer to whatever it was we thought was normal before the pandemic, Fox News strives to increase the national anxiety level. That was evident in the daily White House press briefing on Monday as Fox’s Peter Doocy engaged in this exchange with press secretary Jen Psaki about the speculation over where the coronavirus originated (a “scandal” that Fox News is foremost in hyping):

Doocy: With 589,920 dead Americans, at what point does President Biden say, “We don’t want to wait for the WHO (World Health Organization). We don’t know what they’re doing. This needs to be an American led effort to get to the bottom of what happened.”
Psaki: Well, first of all, we need access to the underlying data and information in order to have that investigation.
Doocy: But he talks all the time about how he’s known President Xi for a long time. So why can’t he just call?
Psaki: I think you’re misunderstanding how this process actually works. An international investigation led by the World Health Organization is something that we’ve actually been pressing for for several months, in coordination with a range of partners around the world. We need that data. We need that information from the Chinese government. What we can’t do, and I would caution anyone doing, is leaping ahead of an actual international process. We don’t have enough data and information to jump to a conclusion at this point in time.

It’s nice to see that after a year of downplaying COVID-19 as a flu or a hoax, Fox News seems to be concerned about its victims. Needless to say though, Doocy did not grasp Psaki’s response, or didn’t want to. So he rephrased his question and asked it again. Psaki patiently tried to educate Doocy that the U.S. can’t unilaterally investigate something that happened in another country.

It’s sad that Doocy needs to be told that Biden can’t just ring up Xi on the phone and ask him “Wassup with that virus thing?” He also can’t send in CIA operatives to interrogate Chinese officials, or Navy Seals to steal file cabinets with secreted data. This has to be handled with diplomacy by a neutral agency that has authority granted by the international community.

The purpose of Doocy’s apparent inability to comprehend this is simply to leave an impression that Biden is isn’t doing all that he can do to get to truth about the virus’ origins. His assignment wasn’t to elicit information, but to pose questions that act as statements and to malign the President in the process.

However, Psaki correctly points out that Doocy just doesn’t understand how international investigations work. And she drives home the point that the administration’s goal with regard to the virus’ origins is “the desire to know how this started, where it started, and to prevent it from ever happening again.” So all Doocy accomplished was to make himself look like a dope with a partisan agenda. Which he has proven repeatedly is not much a of a stretch for him.

Fox News Embroils Kamala Harris in an Insane (and Fake) International Incident

Posted by on May 23, 2021 at 4:01 pm. 4 Comments :

Fox News is scraping the bottom of the barrel in search of anything they can spin into a scandal. They’ve been doing that for the past four months since Joe Biden was inaugurated as President. Their desperation led to cringeworthy “news” alerts involving Dr. Seuss, Mr. Potato Head, and the horror of a Kamala Harris children’s book.

Fox News, Kamala Harris

Speaking of Kamala Harris, Fox News has been obsessed with the fact that she hasn’t been holding frequent press conferences, something that vice-presidents rarely do. Fox reports every single day on how how many days since her last press conference, but still hasn’t managed to spark any interest in that.

Consequently, Fox is now upping the ante with a story that is burning with international intrigue. It all began Friday when Harris welcomed the President of South Korea, Moon Jae-in, to the White House. This is the headline that Fox News composed to report this meeting: “Kamala Harris wipes hand after greeting South Korean leader.”

As you can see, Fox News, demonstrating their commitment to reputable journalism, was intensely focused on the substance of this summit and how it affects the American people. They even included a video of the Harris “gaffe” that they plucked from Twitter.

The article states that “Harris was caught on camera Friday immediately wiping her right hand on her jacket after shaking hands with South Korean President Moon Jae-in at the White House.” They assert that this is an unforgivably rude insult to President Moon. Never mind that Moon didn’t appear to even notice it. That may be because all Harris really did was briefly touch her jacket. But even if she had executed the alleged “wipe,” SO F**KING WHAT?

People are allowed to engage in whatever harmless personal hygiene activities they want. Especially during a deadly global pandemic. What if Moon’s hand was sweaty? Would Fox prefer it if Harris walked around with a wet hand for the rest the day? What do you think Donald Trump would have done? He probably would have ordered some KFC because, you know, it’s finger lickin’ good.

This isn’t the first time that Fox News has tried to manufacture a scandal about Harris. They previously accused her of disrespecting the Marines stationed at the airport when she boarded Air Force Two by not returning a salute. However, the Vice-President is not in the chain of military command and has no obligation to do so.

This is just another in a series of pathetic attempts to malign Harris, and by extension, President Biden and Democrats in general. And it’s further proof that Fox is not – and never has been – news.

UPDATE: This is now a two day story as Fox News’ Outnumbered devoted a segment to it on Monday.

GOP Rep Calls It By Its Name on Fox News: ‘A Trump-Inspired Insurrection on the Capitol’

Posted by on May 23, 2021 at 10:53 am. 1 Comments :

On this Sunday morning truth got a twofer. It’s rare that honesty ever creeps into a story on Fox News. and it’s even more rare when the truth-teller is a Republican member of Congress. However, that political oddity occurred when the subject of the January 6th MAGA riots in Washington, D.C. came up during this week’s Fox News Sunday.

Donald Trump Insurrection

Chris Wallace interviewed Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger, who has been a frequent critic of his party confederates for sucking up to Donald Trump and promulgating the “Big Lie” that the 2020 presidential election was “stolen” from him. Kinzinger unleashed a flurry of honesty that is not often seen in Republicans, and almost never on Fox News (video below):

“The American people deserve the truth, and my party to this point has said things like it was hugs and kisses. It was Antifa and BLM. It was anything but what it was, which was a Trump-inspired insurrection on the Capitol. And I think now what’s gonna happen if this thing fails is that Nancy Pelosi will run a Select Committee and this could go all the way until 2024.”

That commentary is poles apart from anything that most of the GOP StormTrumpers are saying. McCarthy himself has tread on the surreal by insisting that “I don’t think anybody is questioning the legitimacy of the presidential election.” Somebody should introduce McCarthy to the former reality TV game show host who is pathologically obsessed with it.

During the segment the subject of the Democratic initiative to impanel an independent, bipartisan committee came up. The purpose of the committee would be to investigate the circumstances that led to the January 6th riots. Wallace asked Kinzinger whether the objections to the committee by House minority leader, Kevin McCarthy, were a conflict of interest since he was likely to be called as a witness. Kinzinger replied…

“I wouldn’t say it’s a conflict of interest because Kevin is the leader. There is probably a lot of people that are gonna be subject to be called in front of any investigation on this. Even criminal investigations.

But I do think Kevin has failed to tell the truth to the Republicans and to the American people. […] The 74 million voters who voted for Donald Trump, a number of them believe that the election was stolen, believe it because their leaders have not told them otherwise. The people they trust have either been silent or not told them the truth.”

Kinzinger added that McCarthy’s positions have been strikingly hypocritical. He pointed out that McCarthy originally criticized Trump for failing to call off his insurrectionists. On the House floor McCarthy said that “The president bears responsibility for Wednesday’s attack on Congress by mob rioters. He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding.” But instead, Trump told the rioters that he loved them. And shortly thereafter McCarthy made the pilgrimage to Mar-a-Lago to kiss Dear Leader’s… let’s just say ring.

Now McCarthy refuses to even answer questions about whether his caucus members were in communication with the rioters during the assault. That’s how most of the GOP has fallen in line behind Trump. Which makes Kinzinger’s contrary position all the more courageous.

R.I.P. Irony: Fox News Shill Kayleigh McEnany Slams ‘Cuomo Nepotism Network'(CNN)

Posted by on May 21, 2021 at 4:53 pm. NO Comments :

Before she had even stopped working for Donald Trump, press secretary Kayleigh McEnany had already been hired by Fox News. It was an easy transition since she would be doing essentially the same job: Lying about Trump and other right-wing politicians and policies.

Kayleigh McEnany, Donald Trump

Today McEnany is a co-host of Fox’s Outnumbered where four partisan, conservative women agree fervently with a conservative male guest. On Friday’s episode they did a segment on CNN anchor, Chris Cuomo, who was reported to have given advice to his brother, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. With all of the nonsense that Fox News has tried desperately to whip up into scandals, this one actually has some basis to it. While it is understandable that brothers would talk to each other, Chris should not have directly worked with Andrew and his statehouse staff.

That said, McEnany’s outrage over the issue was another nail in the coffin of irony. Her comments demonstrated that she is utterly lacking in both self-awareness and language skills. She said that…

“I agree with [Kyle Smith] at the New York Post, who said CNN now stands for the ‘Cuomo Nepotism Network.’ It is laughable that he did not either get fired or, in the very least, disciplined because there’s a lot more to this [Washington] Post story about him advising his brother on the sexual assault allegations.”

Let’s start with the fact that McEnany doesn’t know what the word “nepotism” means. It is the practice of favoring family members in employment. Chris and Andrew Cuomo are, of course, related, but they do not work for or with each other. So there is no nepotism whatsoever by CNN.

You might think McEnany would know this having worked for Trump, who gave his daughter, Ivanka, and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, cushy White House jobs. To this day no one knows what the heck they did. Trump also hired the sons of his personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, and his Attorney General, Bill Barr. All of those hires are classical examples of nepotism. Meanwhile, her new boss, Fox News, gave the coveted position of White House correspondent to Peter Doocy, son of Fox and Friends co-host, Steve Doocy.

In addition to McEnany’s stunted vocabulary, she is also complaining about a news anchor inappropriately counseling a powerful politician. But she must know that her colleagues at her new employer, Fox News, regularly advised Trump. Sean Hannity was said to talk with Trump on the phone every night before bedtime. Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham, Lou Dobbs, Maria Bartiromo, and Jeanine Pirro, were also frequent advisors to Trump, and some even attended his traveling cult rallies.

The bottom line is that McEnany got everything wrong. She was wrong about accusing CNN of nepotism. And she was wrong not to notice that her old boss was guilty of it. And she was wrong to pretend that Fox News anchors weren’t far more involved with Trump on a political basis than Chris Cuomo ever was with Andrew. And she has no problem with lying about anything and everything. Which all goes to prove that Fox News knew what they were doing when they hired her. She is the perfect manifestation of everything that is wrong with Fox News.

Fox News Ignores Biden’s Infrastructure Plans to Obsess Over His Wearing a Face Mask

Posted by on May 18, 2021 at 1:35 pm. 5 Comments :

President Biden has really been causing trouble for Fox News. For the past four months he has demonstrated a high level of competency and compassion as a leader. That is driving the folks at Fox nuts. And Biden, the swine, is probably doing it on purpose. Likewise he is striving to be “boring” as another means of tormenting the Foxies. Worst of all, Biden is achieving verifiable progress on the nation’s most critical issues such as the economy and the COVID pandemic. His success is evident in his high approval polling and the popularity of the Democratic agenda.

Joe Biden, Donald Trump Baby, Fake News

Consequently, fox News has had to struggle to come up with derogatory story lines on the President. You might think that they would be pretty good at this considering how much “news” they make up themselves. But their record is pretty sad. It consists mainly of trivialities like blaming Biden for sauce shortages at Chick-fil-A, and his fiendish plot to “take down America.” That’s when they aren’t dispensing flagrant racism or hyping abstract and artificial notions like “cancel culture” and “wokeness” that nobody really understands.

On Tuesday morning Fox News assigned their intrepid White House correspondent, Peter Doocy, to tag along with the President to a Ford plant in Dearborn, Michigan. While there, Fox News chose not to broadcast any of Biden’s speech (full video below) that covered salient portions of his infrastructure agenda, as well as plans to address the climate crisis and job creation. Instead, Doocy delivered this breaking news exclusive report:

“The President is saying a lot by showing us what he’s wearing. We have some new video. You can see at an electric vehicle plant in Dearborn, Michigan, he has got a face mask covering his mouth and nose. Which conflicts with the CDC guidance that you don’t have to do that, or socially distance indoors or outdoors as long as you are vaccinated. Which the President has been since before taking the oath of office.”

Doocy is also “saying a lot by showing us” what he regards as newsworthy reporting. Never mind that Doocy didn’t bother to ascertain whether or not there was a company policy at the plant that required masks. That appears likely since everyone else in the video was wearing them. Doocy also didn’t address whether the other people in the video had been vaccinated. And Doocy misrepresented the CDC guidance which actually says that masks should be worn indoors with people who aren’t vaccinated.

This is what happens when a propaganda network is incapable of concocting “scandals” to denigrate their ideological foes. It’s a pathetic spectacle of futility that will fall flat for everyone except for their loyal and gullible regular viewers. But to what end? Fox already has them convinced that Biden is a radical socialist dictator. Does is it really make any difference if they also think he’s one of them mask wearing libruls?

Tomi Lahren of Fox News Tingles with Orgasmic Delight at Trump’s Stench of Fear

Posted by on May 16, 2021 at 3:14 pm. 1 Comments :

Donald Trump spent four years embarrassing America and degrading democracy. And he has nothing to show for it but two impeachments, the lowest approval ratings of all time, and a pile of pending indictments, both civil and criminal. But you know you’ve arrived at rock bottom when your most zealous defenders can only cite your worst personal traits as evidence of your success.

Tomi Lahren, Trump Baby

On “Judge” Jeanine Pirro’s Fox News Holler-rama Saturday night, she hosted a couple of shameless Trump-fluffers for an extended veneration of Dear Leader. The theme of the night was, according to a ranting Leo Terrell, that “Democrats and the media are afraid of Donald Trump.” When called upon for her testimony, Tomi Lahren (aka Nazi Barbie) unleashed a bizarre variant of praise for The Donald. Lahren gushed that…

“If I were Donald Trump and I was listening to the mainstream media, I would take that as a clear signal and cue. They are terrified of you Mr. Trump. It’s time for you to run again in 2024 because you’ve got the media on their heels. And there is no better way to know that, and to know that clearly than to know how terrified they are of you. They wanted Liz Cheney. They wanted Mitt Romney. Because they are terrified of “America First,” because that’s a winning message and a winning man.”

(Longer clip here)

Since when is the ability to incite fear a positive trait for a leader in a democracy? Lahren is actually excited by how scary Trump supposedly is to the majority of the American people who voted against him twice. She must really have gotten off when Trump’s insurrectionist brigades stormed the Capitol and threatened to hang Mike Pence and murder members of Congress.

Fear is the drug that stimulates the right-wing Id. And Trump is the perfect trigger for a flock of frightened followers who can’t distinguish fact from fiction. His every public utterance is filled with hostility. He’s either insulting his innumerable enemies, lying about his imagined achievements, or whining about his perceived victimhood. And it’s all aimed at stirring the innate fears of people who can’t accept responsibility for their own failings, so they need to project them onto others who look different.

However, the assertion that Democrats and the media are afraid of Trump is a feeble fabrication cooked up by desperate losers to make themselves feel as if they have some hidden superpower. No one is afraid of Trump, the person. He was confronted and defeated by the voters last November. And the media has been making progress calling Trump’s lies out for what they are. It is not an expression of fear for the press to report honestly on Trump’s obsessive aversion to the truth. To the contrary, speaking truth to power requires strength. It’s Trump’s embrace of flagrant falsehoods that speaks to his weakness.

There is, however, a justifiable fear of the consequences of reckless, demagogic rhetoric, lapped up by glassy-eyed cultists. That’s what led to the January 6th insurrection. Aberrations like Charles Manson and Jim Jones were not themselves frightening. But their gullible and pliant disciples were capable of horrific acts in the service of their master. And that’s always been the threat that Trump posed. He was never particularly frightening, but his followers are scary as hell. And some of them are regularly on Fox News.

Crime of the Century? Rage-a-Holic Trump Lashes Out at GOP, Fox News, and Newsmax

Posted by on May 15, 2021 at 5:36 pm. 5 Comments :

It’s been six months since the 2020 presidential election was won decisively by Joe Biden. It’s been four months since Biden was inaugurated. And yet, the “Big Lie” that the election was “stolen” and/or “rigged” by a cabal of thousands of conspirators continues to eat away at Donald Trump. It is, according to Trump “The Crime of the Century!”

Donald Trump Angry

Never mind that this cabal would have to include participants from both the Democratic and Republican parties, both of whom control the fifty states that have certified the voting results. And multiple nations would also have to be among the anti-Trump colluders, including Venezuela, Ukraine, and Germany. Sixty judges, many of whom were appointed by Trump, and the Supreme Court as well, are, in Trump’s diseased mind, all out to deny him a second term as president.

And on it goes. On Saturday morning Trump posted a series of comments on his laughably lame new blog (which was down for most of the morning). These bug-eyed outbursts speak for themselves as to the mental deterioration of the Former Guy. It went something like this…

“As our Country is being destroyed, both inside and out, the Presidential Election of 2020 will go down as THE CRIME OF THE CENTURY!”

This is a “crime” that has no evidence whatsoever to prove that it was committed. Dozens of courts dismissed it as unsupported, frivolous, and totally lacking legal foundation.

“The 2020 Presidential Election was, by far, the greatest Election Fraud in the history of our Country. The good news is, the American people get it and the truth is rapidly coming out! Had Mike Pence had the courage to send the Electoral College vote back to states for recertification, and had Mitch McConnell fought for us instead of being the weak and pathetic leader he is, we would right now have a Republican President who would be VETOING the horrific Socialistic Bills that are rapidly going through Congress.”

Trump is actually correct that “the American people get it.” By significant majorities (62%), voters believe that the election was free and fair. Although gullible Republicans continue to buy the Big Lie myth. Despite that, Trump is still mad at Mike Pence and Mitch McConnell for not finding a way to violate the law and declare Trump president-for-life.

“Fox News is afraid to cover it—there is rarely a mention. Likewise, Newsmax has been virtually silent on this subject because they are intimidated by threats of lawsuits. One America News (OAN), one of the fastest growing networks on television, and the “hottest”, is doing a magnificent job of exposing the massive fraud that took place. The story is only getting bigger and at some point it will be impossible for the weak and/or corrupt media not to cover. Thank you to OAN and other brave American Patriots. It is all happening quickly!”

In addition to the weaklings that Trump has branded as traitors, he is also perturbed at his Ministry of Propaganda (aka Fox News) and the even more sycophantic Newsmax. But there is good reason to be concerned about lawsuits considering that Dominion Voting Systems and Smartmatic have both filed defamation suits against Fox News and Newsmax. However, OAN is hardly a fast growing network. It has so few viewers that it isn’t even tracked in the Nielsen ratings.

Trump’s persistence in continuing his futile war on democracy is only making him and the GOP look ever more delusional. Which wasn’t that difficult to begin with. The House Republican minority leader, Kevin McCarthy, told Sean Hannity this week that “I don’t think anybody is questioning the legitimacy of the presidential election.” Someone should introduce McCarthy to Trump. Their shared inability to comprehend reality might make them perfect match.

SRSLY? House GOP Leader Heaps Praise on Trump for Sleeping Less than Biden

Posted by on May 15, 2021 at 1:00 pm. 2 Comments :

The political debate in America has significantly devolved since Donald Trump rose to (and fell from) power. Trump’s idea of a substantive argument is to either fling infantile insults at his opponents, or to exalt himself for things he’s never done. And Fox News hasn’t helped with their manic promotion of trivial issues like the “cancelling” of Mr. Potato Head, or President Biden being responsible for a sauce shortage at Chick-fil-A.

Trump in Bed, Eating, Sad

On Friday evening’s episode of Sean Hannity’s Fox News program, the House Republican minority leader, Kevin McCarthy, was interviewed along with the GOP Whip, Steve Scalise, and the newly installed GOP conference chair, Elise Stefanik. That trio at the top of the Republican food chain have the distinction of all having voted to overturn the election on behalf of their messiah Trump.

During the interview, Hannity sought to elicit some commentary from his guests that would cast Biden as unfit to serve. That led to this exchange with McCarthy:

Hannity: What observations did you see as it relates to the President? Did he seem engaged? Did he have a high level of energy? You’ve been around Donald Trump, you’ve been around Joe Biden. What’s the difference between the two men?
McCarthy: This is the first time I saw Joe Biden as President since he’d been – I saw him at inaugural and State of the Union night. He was with it, and he was engaging, and he was giving me numbers, and he was talking. But at no time, having known Joe Biden for quite some time, does he have the energy of Donald Trump. We both know it. Donald Trump didn’t need to sleep five hours a night.

Hannity must have been bitterly disappointed that McCarthy acknowledged Biden’s engagement and grasp of detail. Hannity has been trying in vain to portray Biden as “weak, frail, and struggling cognitively.” But McCarthy’s response failed on multiple levels.

First of all, the assertion that Trump was bursting with energy is contradicted by four years of unprecedented presidential sloth. Trump didn’t begin his work day until 11:00am. He refused to sit through daily briefings. He insisted on what his staff called “executive time,” that consisted primarily of tweeting and watching Fox News. And he has spent a record amount of time on the golf course (usually at his own properties) that accounts for upwards of 20% of his time in office. And who can count the wasted hours Trump spent performing his psycho-comedy routine for the cultish followers at his campaign rallies?

What’s more, McCarthy’s admiration of Trump’s “wokeness” is a peculiar argument. Lack of sleep is not an indicator of strength. It’s an illness with severe consequences. Sleep deprivation diminishes mental acuity, produces hallucinations, and causes anxiety and psychoses. There’s a reason that it’s often used as a form of torture. So no one should be impressed that Trump doesn’t get sufficient sleep. And if Trump is suffering from insomnia, it would be interesting to know what’s causing it. Some common causes are anxiety, stress, depression, and medications such as Adderall.

America can rest comfortably knowing the President is getting sufficient sleep to competently do his job. But we still have to worry about the fact that the hopelessly lost Republican Party is controlled by “Sleepy Don” and the “Big Lie” spreaders at the top of the GOP pile. Then again, that may be the best thing that can happen for Democrats.
