Republican James Comer Gives Fox News a Damn Good Reason to Vote Democratic and Flip the House

Posted by on July 6, 2026 at 4:52 pm. 0 Comments :

The upcoming midterm elections in November are going to have a profound impact on the remaining two years of Donald Trump’s occupation of the White House. It is likely that Democrats will regain the majority in the House of Representatives, and have a good chance of doing the same in the Senate.

Fox News Sad

The prospects of Trump transforming from a Screech Owl to a Lame Duck next year are greater with each passing day. He is doing virtually nothing to advance the campaigns of Republicans. He even said to reporters that “I Don’t Care About the Midterms.” Instead, he is focusing almost exclusively on vanity projects like the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and his golden ballroom. He hardly even mentions anymore the war against Iran that he’s losing. The closest he comes to articulating a campaign theme is to regurgitate the “red scare” paranoia of the 1950s.

SEE THIS: Trump Reveals His Midterm Election Theme: ‘If The Communists Get In You’ll Never Fish Again’

In support of his Dear Leader, Republican Oversight Committee chair, James Comer, made another of his nearly daily appearances on Fox News. But during the course of what he thought was a segment that would juice Trump’s standing with the public, Comer offered what is more likely a motivating message for Democrats.

“This is just a perfect example of the Democrats. And I think that all they’re gonna do if they flip the House and become the majority of the House is investigate and harass Donald Trump.”

Republican James Comer is making a great case for voting for Democrats and flipping the House. He says that they will investigate and harass Trump.GOOD! There will finally be some law and order, rather than the sycophantic cowardice and puppetry of the GOP Congress.

OH NO! NOT THAT! Comer is threatening that if Democrats are elected they will do exactly what Democrats, most independents, and even some Republicans, want them to do. This is the sort of message that will drive voters who are tired of – and disgusted by – Trump to the polls in record numbers. Surveys show that the American people are through tolerating Trump’s corruption and lies.

Voters see Trump enriching himself by billions of dollars, mostly via scams, while they are struggling to pay for gas, groceries, housing, and healthcare. And they see him wasting scarce taxpayer revenue on trivialities like alleged DC beautification, or worse, atrocities like ICE thugs persecuting innocent immigrants and even some citizens.

The onscreen message on Fox News during Comer’s segment said that a “Dem Report Claims Trump Corrupted America 250.” Which is some more inadvertently accurate messaging from the folks at Fox News. There is indeed a well researched report that reveals how Trump has hijacked the “America 250” project to divert funds to his own “Freedom 250” scam.

The spectacle of watching Comer accidentally help Democratic campaigns is not a one-time mistake by Trump regime confederates. Trump’s former press Secretary, Kellyanne Conway, has done it as well…

Trump himself has unintentionally characterized himself as a recidivist criminal, and unwittingly reminded people of his frequent illegal activities…

Trump Reveals His Midterm Election Theme: ‘If The Communists Get In You’ll Never Fish Again’

Posted by on July 2, 2026 at 4:04 pm. 1 Comments :

The prospects for Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections continue to improve as their candidates outperform Republicans, even in red state primaries. It’s clear that the American people are sick and tired of Donald Trump’s failures, lies, vanities, and senile outbursts.

Donald Trump Tyrant Dictator

Meanwhile, Republicans are facing the almost certain loss of the majority in the House of Representatives, and a likely similar loss in the Senate. The GOP response to these dire predictions has been to double and triple down on extremist hyperbole that diverges entirely from anything that matters to voters, and from reality itself.

SEE THIS: BE AFRAID! Trump’s Propaganda Secretary Warns Fox News About Imaginary Marxist Democrats

The whole of Trump’s MAGA Party is following his lead in trying to malign Democrats as communists. Never mind that they have no rational basis for that charge. It is just more of their explosive diarhetorica that they are dispensing out of pure desperation.

Naturally, Trump is taking the lead in this reprise of the “red scare” attacks that failed so miserably in the 1950s. To that end Trump posted a hysterical comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, that illustrates his devotion to dredging up tactics that didn’t work 75 years ago. His comment began by announcing that…

“Today I am declaring a National Scallops Day to celebrate an action taken by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) that will open up the Northern Edge of Georges Bank to Scallops Fishing, fulfilling the dream to our Great Fishermen who were so badly treated by the Obama and Biden Administrations, and by the Country of Canada.”

FINALLY! Someone is doing something about the horror that Democrats imposed by depriving citizens of their god-given supply of marine mollusks, and “fulfilling the dream” of American fishermen. Trump bragged that, in order to do this, he “terminated” the environmental monument status of sensitive waters on both U.S. coasts, saying that…

“I have opened up the Oceans, Rivers, Lakes, and Seas to our Fishermen, and freed them from ridiculous Environmental restrictions that allowed other countries to take advantage of the United States’ Waters under Barack Hussein Obuma, Sleepy Joe Biden, and the Dumocrats.”

Following that display of childish name-calling, Trump revealed in all caps what may become his rallying cry for the remainder of the midterm election campaign season…

“GO OUT AND VOTE REPUBLICAN IN THE MIDTERMS, BECAUSE IF THE COMMUNISTS GET IN, YOU’LL NEVER FISH AGAIN!”

HOLY SHIH TZU! Trump is accusing Democrats of plotting to prohibit all fishing forever. And to his cabal of MAGA disciples, that is a totally reasonable accusation of something they are eagerly ready to believe that Democrats will actually do.

Yet Somehow the MAGA-tists haven’t realized that it is their Dear Leader who is the aspiring communist. He is the one who is 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, forcing corporations to sell parts of the businesses to the government, and defunding public media such as PBS, NPR, and Radio Free America. He has even sued media conglomerates for billions of dollars, forcing them to either pay up or suffer his retribution.

Communist leaders like Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un are drooling with admiration and envy. But while Democrats and most other patriotic Americans are appalled, from a strictly political perspective they are pretty excited. Because the more that Trump and his GOP confederates focus on this sort of red baiting idiocy, the better chances Democrats will have of victories in November. So go for it, Donald. We’ll see you at your next impeachment hearing.

RATPUBLICAN TRUMP Posts Two Polls on Truth Social Asking Truly DUMB (With a B) Questions

Posted by on June 20, 2026 at 1:11 pm. 1 Comments :

Something for which Donald Trump can always be counted on is his commitment to always focusing squarely on the issues that matter most to – himself, and only himself.

Donald Trump, Twitter

On Saturday morning Trump was busy doing the critical presidential work of posting idiotic comments on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. They included insulting and lying about Italy’s Prime Minister, making preposterous excuses for having ruined the Reflecting Pool in D.C., and bragging about having lost the reckless and illegal war he started against Iran.

SEE THIS: Trump Posts an Absolutely BONKERS Comment on His Fake ‘Peace’ Deal with Iran

In addition to those time-wasting exercises in pettiness and ego-stroking, Trump posted a couple of polls for his cult followers to play with. Neither addressed anything that the American people regard as essential to their well being. But both were repetitions of trivialities that Trump has been obsessed with. For instance…

Trump posted one poll that asked his flock which childish nickname they preferred for the Democratic Party: “Dumocrats” or “Dumbocrats”? This has been a pressing issue with Trump for quite a while. He appears to favor “Dumocrats” because you just swap the “E” for a “U.” He is particularly concerned about the inbred ignorance of his supporters, about whom he says “Many people don’t know, or assume, that DUMB ends in ‘b.'” By “many people” you can rest assured that he means himself.

Trump posted a second poll asking whether he should add the letter “N” to the beginning of the ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agency that has been harassing both immigrants and American citizens. Trump whined that “ICE has been abused by the Fake News Media at levels never seen before…Much of this hostility is caused by the Dumocrats and the Fake News.” Trump thinks that if the initials spell “NICE” that…

“…it will totally discombobulate Crooked, Dishonest, and Unpatriotic Reporters and Journalists…They won’t be able to handle it, they will go totally crazy!”

Trump is convinced that it would put an end to any criticisms. Because that worked so well when Trump tried to rename the Gulf of Mexico, the Department of Defense, and the Kennedy Center. Notice how all criticisms ceased? Neither do I.

Trump could spend his time much more productively if he posted polls on issues that really matter to the American people. How about polls asking…

  • Was the war in Iran a good idea, and has it been successful?
  • Are you satisfied with the Trump administration’s handling of the economy?
  • Do you support deporting immigrants working in agriculture, hospitality, medical care, and construction?
  • Should the United States help Ukraine against Russia’s imperialism?
  • Is universal healthcare a human right?
  • Should billionaire’s pay their fair share in taxes?
  • Do you want Trump and his “Justice” Department to stop blocking the release of the Epstein files?

These are all issues where the majority are opposed to the positions of Trump and his MAGA Republican Party. Or should I say “RATpublican” Party? After all, you just swap the “E” for “AT” And you have a much better description. Maybe I should post a poll about that.

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY? Trump Insults Half the Country (Dumocrats?), Including Millions of Veterans

Posted by on May 25, 2026 at 4:46 pm. 0 Comments :

It’s Memorial Day, and on this somber day of remembrance, America’s fallen are honored for their sacrifice. It’s a day when the nation comes together to pay tribute to those made the ultimate sacrifice to preserve the liberties we were inherited from our founders.

Donald Trump, Police

Unfortunately, not everyone participates in this appreciation for those who defend American principles. And leading the list of naysayers is the current occupant of the White House, Donald Trump. At least he took some time off from golfing, watching Fox News, and pitching his vanity ballroom, to make an appearance at Arlington National Cemetery for a ceremonial wreath-laying. Which is quite a concession considering how averse he is to not being the center of attention.

SEE THIS: Trump is APPALLED that Nobody is Talking About a CNN Poll With 100% Approval – That Doesn’t Exist

Prior to the ceremony at Arlington, Trump posted one of his typically infantile comments on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, that exemplifies his true feelings about this holiday. Since he is incapable of behaving as anything other than bitterly divisive, Trump raged that…

“Happy Memorial Day to all, including the Dumocrats, who disrespect our Military and all of the tremendous success that it has had over the last year. God Bless those that have made the ultimate sacrifice. I love you all! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY?Rather than uniting the nation, Trump's typically infantile message – "including the Dumocrats" – insults half the country – including millions of active duty military and veterans – while focusing on himself.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-05-25T16:08:43.791Z

First of all, it is improper to wish people a “happy” Memorial Day. It is not an occasion for joy, but for solemn reflection and remembrance. More to the point, it is wholly inappropriate to exploit the holiday to divide Americans politically. Trump’s childish insult may be typical of Trump, but it is out of place and profoundly callous on a day intended to thank the fallen for their service.

What’s more, Trump’s accusation that Democrats “disrespect our military” is hypocritical in the extreme. After all, he is the one who has called fallen soldiers “suckers” and “losers.” He is the one who disparaged American prisoners of war simply because they were captured (see John McCain). He is the one who prohibited soldiers with disabling injuries from parades because he didn’t like the way they looked. And he is the five-time draft dodger who allegedly suffered from bone spurs.

Trump has shown more disrespect to America’s bona fide heroes by firing generals and other leaders when they had the audacity to express loyalty to the Constitution, rather than to him. Additionally, Trump is making a disgusting attempt to exalt himself by referring only to alleged military successes “had over the last year,” which is the year of his presidency.

Finally, Trump displayed the depth of his interest in paying tribute to the fallen during a ceremony wherein his Secretary of War Crimes, Pete Hegseth, was speaking. Apparently it was too much for Trump to be bothered just to stay awake…

How DUMB is Trump? He Just Admitted His Followers Want to ‘WHACK’ Hecklers at His Cult Rallies

Posted by on May 23, 2026 at 4:13 pm. 0 Comments :

The mind-numbing idiocy of Donald Trump never ceases to astonish the long-suffering American people who can’t believe how deeply his ignorance descends into an abyss of abject blather. Even after bragging that he has “aced” multiple psyche tests (that measure cognitive decline, not IQ), Trump still exhibits troubling signs of mental impairment.

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

Donald Trump, Mocking Disability

Mental health professionals have weighed in on Trump’s evolving dementia in thoroughly researched and documented studies, such as the book “The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 37 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President.” Making matters worse is that Trump insists on displaying his emotional deficiencies in the most public ways possible.

SEE THIS: Trump Unloads Dozens of Insane Posts, Including Calling for the Arrest of Obama for Treason

Continuing that trend, Trump spoke at a political rally Friday in support of a MAGA Republican congressional candidate in New York. And he was in top form for spreading his foolishness far and wide. Among the critical issues that face the nation – war in Iran, inflation, healthcare, etc. – what Trump chose to focus on was his extraordinary ability to craft insulting nicknames for his political enemies. Attacking the Democratic Leader in the House of Representatives, Hakeem Jeffries, Trump babbled that…

“He’s a dumb guy. I said, ‘Wait a minute. He’s a dumocrat.’ That’s how I got the name. You take the E out. You don’t use the B. A lot of people don’t know dumb has a B in it actually. You don’t need it…They are dumocrats. You know why? Because their policies are dumb.”

WOW! What an incredibly brilliant play on words – for a seven year old. And whenever Trump refers to what “a lot of people don’t know,” he really just means himself and the MAGA-tists who worship him. Even seven year olds know that “dumb” has a B in it.

A little later in the same speech, Trump was heckled by someone in the audience. His comebacks in these situations are never particularly effective. But this time he ventured farther out on the limb of incoherence than usual. He whined about the risks of exercising freedom speech at a Trump cult rally…

“I tell people ‘Please don’t do it, it’s dangerous.’ To do it in this crowd is not a good thing…I like things that aren’t dangerous. I don’t like to see people get whacked. I don’t like it. So don’t do it.”

Trump just warned people not to heckle him at his rallies or his supporters will kill them.Let that sink in. He didn't tell his supporters not to kill people. He told his critics to shut up.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-05-23T09:52:10.055Z

Let that sink in. Trump is admitting that his followers are prone to violence, and that they might actually kill you if you express an opinion different than their Dear Leader.

This is the rhetoric that Trump is embracing while he and his MAGA-tists complain about the hostile tone in politics that they pretend to believe must stop. But unlike the phrase “8647” (which means simply to remove or prohibit someone from a particular place), to “whack” can literally mean to murder, in the Mafioso lingo that Trump likes. And notice that Trump doesn’t tell his followers not to kill people who criticize him. Instead, he tells his critics to shut up or risk getting whacked.

Clearly, Trump cannot handle criticism. His massive ego is far too fragile to tolerate it. Even in his telling of this tale about hecklers, Trump said that in the past “Guys would start screaming ‘We hate you, sir.'” Really? They called him “sir” while expressing their hatred? With absurdities like that, there is really only one way to describe Trump’s behavior. And that is to say that it’s dumb, with B. Coming from the leader of the Dumpublican Party.

Trump Unleashes a Manic Tirade Attacking Those He Says are America’s Greatest Enemy – Democrats?

Posted by on March 25, 2026 at 1:57 pm. 1 Comments :

Throughout the past 250 years, America’s presidents have made at least cursory efforts to show that they represent everyone in this great and diverse country. It is their constitutional duty to conduct the nation’s business on behalf of every citizen. The president is not elected to be the leader of one political party.

Donald Trump, Newspapers, Baby, Hate

Unfortunately, among the traditions that Donald Trump has abandoned is the one that promotes the unity of service that has always been the province of the occupant of the White House. Service, however, is a principle that is foreign to Trump, a malignant narcissist with authoritarian aspirations. Consequently, in order to elevate himself above the majority of the American people, he fiercely denigrates those who he considers to be his political foes.

SEE THIS: Trump Says He’s Dealing with Terrorists in Iran, But Refuses to Deal with Democrats in America

With a war raging against Iran, and military assaults on peaceful protesters at home by ICE thugs, and the domestic economy burdening Americans with skyrocketing costs for everything from groceries, to gasoline, to housing to healthcare, Trump carved out some of his precious “executive time” – ordinarily reserved for golfing, designing ballrooms, and watching Fox News – to post a flurry of comments on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social.

This particular batch of social bitchcraft was focused on those that he regards as “the greatest enemy America has.” And he isn’t talking about his current adversaries in Iran, or America’s longtime nemeses Russia and China. Or even our European allies that Trump has downgraded to virulently hostile. Nope. It’s America’s own Democratic Party and the millions of people who are members of it. What follows are a few of Trump’s hateful harangues with relevant annotations.

“Blame the Democrats for the Airport’s mess. They want our Country to do badly. They want our Country to fail. They broke the already signed Bill.”
For the record, it is Trump and the Republicans who have repeatedly refused to fund TSA and other Homeland Security agencies by voting against legislation offered by Democrats. And the “already signed bill” to which he is referring is his so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” that isn’t broken at all. It’s just bad policy because the GOP can’t govern competently.

“The Democrats don’t want to make any deal unless Amnesty and Citizenship is given to millions of Criminals who have entered our Country illegally, many of whom have been convicted of serious crimes.”
Actually, it is Trump who has literally refused to deal with Democrats, saying that “I don’t think we should make any deal with the Crazy, Country Destroying, Radical Left Democrats.” And he is making up the preposterous charge that Democrats want amnesty and citizenship for “million of Criminals. Meanwhile, it is Trump himself who has been “convicted of serious crimes” (34 felonies).

“The Radical Left, Country Hating Democrats are trying to create inner chaos to take away from the great military achievement we are having in Iran. They hate seeing us WIN so completely and decisively, but the American public sees what is going on.”
Trump doesn’t need any help from Democrats to “create inner chaos.” That’s his specialty. However, he’s right that “the American public sees what is going on.” Recent polls show that big majorities of the public disapprove of Trump’s war in Iran.

Trump’s vicious animosity toward fellow Americans who happen to disagree with him is an abhorrent diversion from how decent presidents throughout history have behaved. His hatred is directed squarely at patriotic citizens who have the right to their own opinions. And in this case those opinions are shared by most other American citizens. No president who has this much loathing for the people he is supposed to be serving should be tolerated. In the meantime, least we can say that the feeling is mutual…

Trump Says He’s Dealing with Terrorists in Iran, But Refuses to Deal with Democrats in America

Posted by on March 23, 2026 at 1:45 pm. 0 Comments :

The war against Iran that Donald Trump said he won three weeks ago is still raging on. The Strait of Hormuz remains shutdown. Both sides are continuing to launch bombing raids. Trump is still seeking $200 billion more in Pentagon funding. Gas and oil prices are still rising. 2,400 Marines were just to deployed to the Middle East. And all for a war for which Trump has already declared victory.

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

Donald Trump WTF

Trump’s justification for continuing to fight has run the gamut from his lust for a genocidal solution, to his sociopathic desire to just have fun slaughtering people. He couldn’t care less about the welfare of American troops or Iranian civilians. Or for that matter, Americans here at home…

SEE THIS: Trump Says He Knows Where Iranian Sleeper Cells Are in the U.S. But He Isn’t Going After Them?

Trump recently pledged that he would escalate his bombing of Iran if they didn’t open up the Strait of Hormuz within 24 hours. But he is already backing off of that pledge with an announcement that he is engaging with Iran to formulate a peace agreement. He posted the following comment on his dedicated, for-profit propaganda platform, Truth Social, Monday morning…

“I AM PLEASE TO REPORT THAT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND THE COUNTRY OF IRAN, HAVE HAD, OVER THE LAST TWO DAYS, VERY GOOD AND PRODUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS REGARDING A COMPLETE AND TOTAL RESOLUTION OF OUR HOSTILITIES IN THE MIDDLE EAST.”

Trump offered no evidence of any actual discussions, or with whom they would be held, since he previously claimed to have killed all of their leaders. And Iran is denying that any discussions have taken place. As reported by The Hill…

“A senior Iranian security official on Monday said Tehran is not in talks with President Trump adding that Trump ‘backed down’ from further attacks on energy infrastructure due to pressure from the markets and allies.”

It’s difficult to decide who trust in this situation. Iran is not a particularly reliable source of information. But Trump is arguably even worse. Trump’s claim that he is having “VERY GOOD AND PRODUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS” comes in stark contrast to his prior statements regarding negotiations with his fellow Americans in Congress. While he is bragging that he is dealing with the terrorist regime in Iran, he is simultaneously refusing to deal with Democrats here at home…

“I don’t think we should make any deal with the Crazy, Country Destroying, Radical Left Democrats unless, and until, they Vote with Republicans to pass ‘THE SAVE AMERICA ACT.’ It is far more important than anything else we are doing in the Senate.”

Trump isn’t making any secret of whose side he is on. And it clearly isn’t the side of America or its people. He actually trusts Iran as a negotiating partner more. And he is happy to deal with the leaders of the country he is at war with, but not the leaders of his domestic political opposition that he maligns as “Crazy, Country Destroying, Radical Left Democrats.”

What’s more, Trump’s problem with Democrats is that they won’t agree to his “Voter Suppression Act,” that he has prioritized above everything else, including the war in Iran and the skyrocketing cost of living in the U.S. He is terrified of the likelihood that American voters are going to strip his MAGA Republicans from their congressional majorities in November, and that Democrats will hold him accountable for his crimes.

To Trump that means that Democrats are the real enemy to America. No, really. He literally said so yesterday…

Trump just literally declared WAR on at least half of the American people.Does he plan to start bombing Democrats? He's already trying to obstruct them from voting. Because he is TERRIFIED and knows that Democrats will hold him accountable for his crimes when they assume power.

SRSLY? Trump Threatens Democrats With ICE Thugs in Airports to Coerce Passage of DHS Funding

Posted by on March 21, 2026 at 12:11 pm. 0 Comments :

For the third time since Donald Trump returned to his vengeance and ego driven occupation of the White House, the nation is mired in a government shutdown orchestrated by Trump and his MAGA Republicans in Congress. And it only took a little over one year to match or exceed the record for duration of a shutdown – twice.

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

Donald Trump Angry

No rational observers are falling for the GOP spin that Democrats are responsible for the shutdown. Republicans control both houses of Congress and the White House. If they were interested – or competent – they could have easily negotiated agreements that avoided the shutdowns, but they preferred to hold the American people hostage, forcing them to suffer skyrocketing health insurance costs, and tolerating violent tactics by Trump’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement thugs (ICE). They never really wanted to avoid the shutdowns…

SEE THIS: King Trump Craves a ‘Forever’ Shutdown, Whining that ‘You Can’t Make a Deal With These Lunatics’

The burning issue that Trump and the GOP are fixated on this time around is the passage of funding for ICE in a Homeland Security appropriations bill. Trump and his MAGA toadies refuse to consider common sense proposals to reign in the brutality of his untrained and unqualified ICE agents. They would rather cripple government services that Americans rely on, and force federal employees to miss work or go without pay. And on Saturday morning Trump weighed in with a crackpot comment posted on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, saying that…

“If the Radical Left Democrats don’t immediately sign an agreement to let our Country, in particular, our Airports, be FREE and SAFE again, I will move our brilliant and patriotic ICE Agents to the Airports where they will do Security like no one has ever seen before.”

REALLY? Trump is effectively admitting that the tactics employed by his ICE StormTrumpers are so hostile and dangerous that they are useful as threats to coerce Democrats to obey his authority. But it’s not an especially wise position to take for an agency that already has broad disapproval ratings. Does he think that the American people want to be screened for travel by the same masked thugs who murdered Renee Good and Alex Pretti?

What’s more, Trump is regurgitating the right-wing talking points that accuse Democrats of being responsible for the disruptions at airports due to the Republican shutdown. In reality, it is Democrats who have offered proposals to fund the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), as well as FEMA, the Coast Guard, and other Homeland Security functions. But Republicans have voted against those proposals – five times so far.

Trump’s comment also suggested that ICE agents at the airport would be able to make the “immediate arrest of all Illegal Immigrants” Does he think that immigrants are coming in illegally by plane, where there are already checkpoints screening foreign passengers? And in a ridiculous and racist aside he specifies that there will be a “heavy emphasis on those from Somalia.”

Trump’s brazen bullying and threats are unlikely to achieve his goal of convincing Democrats to pass the DHS funding bill without reforms. The “art-of-the-dealer” is proving how pitiful his negotiating skills actually are. He can’t even get all of his Republicans in the Senate to sign on. But this new threat sinks to ever lower depths of depravity. If anything, it will result in an even worse defeat in Congress.

Trump Hypes a New York Post Smear of a Democrat for Doing What Many More Republicans Are Doing

Posted by on February 5, 2026 at 2:44 pm. 0 Comments :

The desperation of Donald Trump to manufacture a recovery of his rapidly declining approval is evident in his increasingly ludicrous public remarks and unhinged social media posts. His deranged behavior and brazen dishonesty have always been an integral part of his warped character. But as he sinks ever lower his outbursts are becoming ever more bizarre.

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

Donald Trump, Twitter

Trump’s polling seems to hit a new low every day. According to the latest Quinnipiac poll, his current approval rating is a dismal 37%. That’s consistent with other polls, most of which show him struggling to reach 40%. Consequently, Trump and his regime mouthpieces are going to extreme lengths to spin reality into something that doesn’t hurt his tender fee fees.

SEE THIS: Trump Proudly Hypes a Poll that Shows His MAGA-tists are Mindless Members of a Totalitarian Cult

On Wednesday night, Trump himself sought to salve his wounded ego by posting a link on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, to an article in Rupert Murdoch’s New York Post that smeared a Democratic congressman for trading stocks. The article is a month old, but that doesn’t matter when you’re trying to whip up some positive propaganda from thin air. The headline blared that “Long Island Rep. Tom Suozzi beats Pelosi’s stock portfolio performance with 35% return.” It began…

“Long Island Rep. Tom Suozzi led all Democrats with the best stock portfolio performance of 2025, beating even the She-Wolf of Wall Street, Nancy Pelosi, data obtained by The Post shows.” […] “Most of it came from his outsized position in tech giant NVIDIA — up 40% for the year.

The article noted that Suozzi “supports bipartisan legislation…to ban members of Congress from trading individual stocks.” That’s legislation that many Republicans still are not getting behind. And Trump refuses to support it unless it exempts the executive branch – meaning him. All of the pending legislation is currently stalled in committee or awaiting floor votes that are not scheduled.

Near the bottom of the article, the Post finally noted that a Republican, Tim Moore, made even more money trading stocks (52%) than Suozzi, who ranks down at number five. What’s more, a chart included in the article shows that eight of the top ten congressional stock traders are Republicans. Which is not ever mentioned in the text of the article.

Nancy Pelosi’s 18% isn’t even among the top ten, despite having made it into the headline. Although notable Republicans like Ted Cruz (50%), and Lisa Murkowski (35%), and Marjorie Taylor Greene (33%), and Mitch McConnell (29%) are in the top ten. [Note: The Post doesn’t know what Murkowski looks like. They put a photo of Susan Collins on the Murkowski bar of the chart]

For some reason the Post decided to make this article all about the Democratic representative, and only added the Republicans as an afterthought. Even though the Republicans are far worse offenders as revealed on the Post’s own chart. And Trump latches onto it as a handy piece of anti-Democrat propaganda. Even if it’s a month later when he’s scrounging around for ways to smear his political foes and deflect from his own much more serious misconduct and outright crimes. Epstein files, anyone?

Trump Whines That He Has ‘Accomplished So Much’ That ‘We Shouldn’t Even Have An Election’

The American experiment in democracy is facing some its most dire challenges during the second occupation of the White House by Donald Trump. He has never been an advocate of government “of, by, and for the people,” and he isn’t about to embrace those principles now.

Abraham Lincoln’s hopes expressed in the Gettysburg Address couldn’t be more urgently needed today as the nation is engaged in a virtual Civil War between Trump and, well, pretty much everybody else who isn’t an indoctrinated Trump cultist. And if he has his way, the freedom and liberty that have been cherished goals for patriotic Americans for 250 years will sadly “perish from the Earth.” The madness of Der Trump is literally threatening to rip apart the American Dream.

In an interview with Reuters on Wednesday, Trump articulated some of his most bizarre and frightening aspirations for the future of this country. In particular, he was asked about the dismal prospects for his MAGA Republican Party in the upcoming midterm elections later this year. As reported by Reuters…

“The president expressed frustration that his Republican Party could lose control of the U.S. House of Representatives or the Senate in this year’s midterm elections…He boasted that he had accomplished so much that ‘when you think of it, we shouldn’t even have an election.'”

Trump is justified in being frustrated by the electoral outlook for the GOP. Most polls show that Democrats are strong favorites to return to the majority in the House, and are well positioned to retake the Senate as well. Trump knows that if that happens, he will be subject to more accountability for his criminal misconduct than he has been with his MAGA flunkies running Congress. Including being impeached for the third time.

So it isn’t especially surprising that an anti-democracy, wannabe dictator like Trump told Reuters that, in his opinion, “we shouldn’t even have an election.” Trump has been angling for an excuse to either cancel elections, or so badly suppress voting, that the elections hardly matter. Most recently Trump floated the idea of invoking the Insurrection Act, which could be used to prevent or delay the election. Exploiting the chaos he’s been deliberately causing in Minneapolis, Trump posted a lie-filled comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, saying that…

“If the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don’t obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the Patriots of I.C.E., who are only trying to do their job, I will institute the INSURRECTION ACT.”

Of course the politicians in Minnesota are not corrupt, they do obey the law, there are no professional agitators, and insurrectionists are not attacking ICE, who are provoking violence and assaulting innocent citizens.

Nevertheless, Trump’s Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, sought to sane-wash Trump’s threat to cancel elections at her press briefing. She was asked about why Trump keeps talking about canceling the election. She replied that “The president was simply joking.” Because the thought of ending democracy in America is just so damn funny.

Q: Why does Trump keep talking about canceling the election?LEAVITT: He's speaking facetiously

In the same interview with Reuters Trump…

  • Said “I don’t care,” when asked about Senate Republicans expressing disapproval of his investigation into Federal Reserve chair, Jerome Powell.
  • Also said “I don’t care,” when told about “concerns that White House interference in the Fed could harm the economy.”
  • Whined that “Americans’ worries about high prices” were only due to his not doing a good job of “promoting his achievements.”
  • Lied that “Putin is ready to strike a deal” for peace with Ukraine, but that “the hold-up” was Ukrainian President Zelenskyy,
  • And falsely claimed that “his efforts [in Minnesota] had taken ‘thousands of murderers out of our country.”

Presumably, those are some of the examples of Trump’s “achievements” that would justify his canceling the election. Add to them his bombing of boats in the Caribbean; his razing part of the White House to build an elite ballroom; his persecution of political foes by his weaponized “Justice” Department; his sabotaging the Affordable Care Act, causing premiums to skyrocket; his dismantling government agencies that benefit millions of middle and low income citizens; his reversing gains made in mitigating the harm of climate change; and too many other atrocities to list.

So, yeah… Trump definitely wants to cancel the election. Because he knows that he and the GOP will be massacred. And he aint joking.
