Trump RAGES Over Supreme Court Not Bending to His Tyrannical Determination to Rig the Election

There is nothing that irks Donald Trump more than not being able to get his way on whatever matter he happens to be throwing a tantrum about. He is like a spoiled toddler who screeches at the top of lungs if mommy won’t buy him a G.I. Joe doll.

Donald Trump, Constitution

This behavioral defect of Trump’s is what causes him to lash out if he can’t have his name on a memorial for a slain president (see the Kennedy Center). It’s what drives him batty if his own Republican comrades in Congress fail to deliver his legislative obsessions.

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

Now Trump is whining petulantly about a ruling by the Supreme Court that prohibits him from imposing his wholly unconstitutional restrictions on voting by mail. He has been fighting this battle for months, and losing at every turn. But this latest ruling is the final word, at least for anything that might occur before the November election.

Consequently, Trump has disgorged a tediously long and incoherent tirade on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. It consists mostly of Trump maligning the Justices and the Court as “a laughing stock all over the World,” whose “horrible decisions…will be costing the U.S.A., for many years to come,” and are causing “irreparable and unrecoverable harm!” And it just gets worse from there…

The bullshittery contained in Trump’s bitchologue is too voluminous to comment on everything. So what follows are a few choice annotated excerpts.

“Republicans just got another bad decision from the United States Supreme Court…to our totally CORRUPT and out of control Mail-In voting “disaster.”
Here Trump is regurgitating his long held lies that there is something “CORRUPT” about our voting systems. Never mind that he has never been able to document any of it, and every credible study refutes his claims. His Attorney Genuflect, Todd Blanche inadvertently proved the falsity of Trump’s allegations in a press conference this morning, bragging about finding 11 allegedly illegal votes in the 2022 and 2024 elections. However, the total votes cast in 2022 and 2024 were 267 million. So his 11 cases is just 0.000004%.

“It is a big loss for Republicans, and America itself, and makes cheating by the Radical Left Dumocrats, on Mail-In Ballots, a much easier thing to do.”
By asserting that this ruling is a “big loss for Republicans,” Trump is conceding that his intention was to produce a partisan benefit for his MAGA GOP, rather than a fair outcome consistent with the Constitution. And once again, he baselessly claims that mail-in voting is a way for Democrats to cheat.

“Justices are petrified of these crazed and depraved Democrats. [And] This Supreme Court is bullied and cajoled by the Radical Left.”
This is a twofer for Trump. He gets to insult the Justices as “petrified” cowards, and the Democrats as “crazed and depraved.” Neither of which does Trump have any proof of to back himself up. And if anyone is bullying the Court, it’s Trump. Where is there even a hint of “cajoling” by Democrats?

“These are not the people I interviewed to serve on the United States Supreme Court, they are merely a shell of their original selves. [who have] rendered some of the most destructive, hurtful, and damaging decisions in our Country’s history.”
With this Trump is bashing his own appointees to the Court. Which is an insult to those Justices, but also to himself for being a terrible recruiter. Even worse, he believes that his appointees are beholden to him, rather than to the Constitution. And if he thinks that this decision is among the “most destructive, hurtful, and damaging decisions in our Country’s history,” he doesn’t know much about history. Which, of course, goes without saying for Trump.

Also embedded in this harangue was Trump’s seething anger at other recent rulings concerning tariffs and birthright citizenship. And while these are all very different cases, to Trump it’s all the same problem: The Court didn’t agree with him. And therefore they are cowards and traitors and unfit to serve. But given The insanity in Trump’s comment, and his ignorant, ego-driven responses to the Court’s decisions, it’s Trump who is clearly unfit to serve.

His MAGA-Sty Trump is ‘Wielding Power to Stifle Speech’ – According to a New York Times Exposé

The 2026 midterm elections are now less than two months away. And every day as it approaches Donald Trump and his MAGA Republican Party are descending ever deeper into the Mariana Trench of disapproval. Trump’s polling is already worse than at any time during either of his occupations of the White House.

King Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

Under ordinary circumstance, a politician with such abysmal ratings prior to an election would seek to broaden his support and adopt positions that had greater appeal to voters. But there is nothing ordinary about Trump. And Trump doesn’t even seem to believe that he is doing poorly.

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

Instead of searching for ways to attract voters, Trump is searching for ways to silence his critics. Suppression of dissent has been a core feature of Trump’s (p)residency. Throughout his time in office he has shown a seething hatred for the free press and the Constitution that protects it. He files lawsuits against media companies, bans reporters from public events, and lobs personal at insults journalists, especially women.

The New York has been one of Trump’s perennial targets. Veteran Times correspondent Maggie Haberman has been viciously attacked by Trump, who refers to her in his typically infantile manner as “Maggot Hagerman.” And now the Times has published an analysis of Trump’s dysfunctional relationship with the media that he calls, in Stalinist terms, “the enemy of the people.”

The article’s headline is How Trump Is Wielding Power to Stifle Speech.” And Haberman is a co-author (along with Jim Rutenberg) so expect a Trump feakout. It begins by describing Trump’s anti-media agenda as “a sweeping campaign to control speech in America.” Then elaborates saying that…

“Regulatory agencies are using their powers to pressure media organizations over their content. The administration has stripped funding from public television and radio. Angry over stories he does not like, President Trump has sued major news organizations and the White House has taken control of the previously independent press pool that tracks the president, deciding which outlets can participate.” […]

“Driven by personal pique, fury over leaks and a determination to shape the political narrative to his advantage, Mr. Trump is deploying the might of the federal government and filing personal lawsuits — targeting not just journalists and liberal critics, but also comedians and talk show hosts, and the corporate entities behind them.”

Indeed, Trump has already filed numerous meritless lawsuits intended to censor and/or intimidate the press. In addition to the Times, his targets have included the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, ABC News, CBS News, CNN, and even the Pulitzer Prize board, who dared to give awards to media that wrote honest stories about Trump’s failures and crimes.

Furthermore, the article’s claim that Trump has “taken control of the previously independent press pool” was affirmed by Trump’s own press secretary in an unprecedented move to improperly dominate the communications that come from the White House to the people.

The Times’ article went to reveal that, according to the international media watchdog, Reporters Without Borders, “The United States now ranks at its lowest since the organization started the index in 2002 — 64th.” An executive director of the organization says that “There’s not a week that goes by where they’re not taking a new step to curtail press freedom in the country.”

It’s safe to assume that, as Trump continues to flounder, this will only get worse. His animosity toward the media, and his festering narcissism, virtually guarantee that he will exhibit ever more severe symptoms of his media-averse depravity. It would helpful if the media would stand up for itself more often and more vigorously.

Trump Lies (Surprise) About the “Success” of His Midterm Trump-a-Paloozer That Was a Total Flop

Republicans are going into the 2026 midterm elections with a decidedly heavy burden to bear. That burden goes by the name of Donald Trump. And it is dragging down Republican candidates across the country, including in ordinarily conservative strongholds like Kansas, North Carolina, and Texas.

Donald Trump TV Set

At this point in Trump’s reoccupation of the White House he is suffering the lowest approval ratings of either of his deplorable terms in office. And to make matters worse, he is completely oblivious to his paltry popularity because he is also suffering from a case of Trump Derangement Syndrome whose symptoms include severe cognitive impairment.

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

This week Trump featured himself in a political extravaganza in Dallas, Texas, that his operatives dubbed a Trump-a-Palooza. He delivered the keynote speeches on both nights of the pseudo-convention that was really nothing more than another Trump cult rally. And when he wrapped his first harangue on Wednesday Trump was quick declare it a success in a giddy comment that he posted on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. He bragged that…

“The Republican Midterm Convention last night, in Dallas, was a major, sold out hit, far bigger, better, and more important than anyone thought possible. It was really something, streaming all over the place, and really big numbers, despite going up against the NFL. The overall numbers beat the NFL. The Arena, which was really nice, beat its own attendance records. The place was packed! There were thousands of people outside who couldn’t get in. Screens were provided. I guess people LOVE TRUMP POLITICS! I’ll be there again tonight to close out the show. Exciting ‘Stuff!’ MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”

There is just one problem with Trump’s glowing appraisal of TrumpFest. It is a pile of unmitigated bull manure. Not only was it not sold out, but the GOP couldn’t even give away enough free tickets to fill the arena. And regarding the “really big numbers” that “beat the NFL,” he couldn’t possibly know that since those ratings haven’t been released. Although it’s safe to assume that his affair didn’t get anywhere near the 20-30 million viewers that the NFL season opener usually gets. Particularly when the numbers we do have are so pitifully low. As reported by Deadline

“The first night of Donald Trump‘s midterm convention failed to generate a ratings bounce for Fox News, with the audiences comparable or even slightly below regular primetime programming. […] During Donald Trump’s speech from 9 p.m. ET to 11 p.m. ET, Fox News averaged 2.5 million viewers. A year ago, during the month of September, Hannity drew an average of 2.89 million in the 9 p.m. ET hour and Gutfeld! garnered an average of 2.94 million at 10 p.m. ET.”

So Fox’s Big Trump Show resulted in lower ratings for the network with Trump than they got without him. It is also telling that when Trump isn’t fluffing himself, he sometimes allows small bits of truth to escape his sneering grimace. For example, during an interview with Laura Ingraham of Fox News, Trump actually capitulated to the reality that he and the GOP are going to lose in November, saying that “I’ll end up being a blocker. I’ll block all their bad stuff for two years.”

Trump is admitting that for his final two years as the lamest of ducks he will just be serving as an annoyance by obstructing the will of the people after they have elected Democratic majorities. It is literally the least he can do. Especially if his cult disciples fail to restore his MAGA team in Congress and break their solemn pledge to his MAGA-sty to turn out voters, even if they aren’t registered or otherwise legally allowed to vote…

HOW CONVENIENT! Trump Says the Iran War and High Gas Prices Will End – Right After the Elections?

The catastrophes that have defined the reoccupation of the White House by Donald Trump are numerous and persistent. They include the ongoing war in Iran that is in its seventh month, despite Trump promising it would only last a few days or weeks; the inflationary affects of his idiotic tariffs; the loss of the respect of our international allies; the wasteful costs of his vanity projects; and the hostilities toward the free press and the Constitution.

Donald Trump

The cumulative impact of all of this has been to drive Trump’s approval ratings into record low territory. And with him in that decline are his Republican confederates. Their electoral condition is so dire that they are holding an unprecedented midterm convention in Dallas, Texas. But even that is shaping up to be another Trump-built massive failure…

SEE THIS: Fox News Shamelessly Shills for the Trump-a-Palooza While Republicans Avoid it Like the Plague

On his way to Dallas, Trump stopped for another one his “chopper talks” where provides incoherent non-responses to questions, while insulting reporters. On this occasion Trump was asked a couple of questions that have been weighing on the minds of America’s voters. Let’s begin with an inquiry about his reckless and illegal war against Iran. Trump was asked when he thought it would end. He replied that…

“I think the war’s going to end immediately after the election because they can’t hold out any longer. They’re desperate to try and affect the election so that we can get a nice, weak group of people in there and leave them alone, and let them have their nuclear weapon.”

That was quickly followed up with a question about when he thought the high prices for gasoline would subside. He said it would be…

“Shortly, right after the election – because they’d like to have it that way – but right after the election oil prices are going to be tumbling downward. They’re gonna be tumbling down, and I think for gasoline we’re gonna get them below $2.00 a gallon think it’s going to take a little bit longer than the midterms.”

The common thread that ran through both of those answers is that these problems – both of which Trump created in the first place – would be over after the midterm elections in November. However, there are a couple of problems with those answers.

First of all the midterm elections are still two months away. That means that the war that was supposed to be over in March is going to continue at least until November. And the same goes for the elevated gas prices that are crushing the budgets of American consumers, that Trump also said wouldn’t last very long. And if they did it was okay because he didn’t mind paying more to defeat Iran, which wasn’t a problem until he ripped up the prior agreement with them.

Secondly, by declaring that these problems would be over after the election Trump is trying to convince voters that they shouldn’t be bothered with the burdens that he is imposing on them. Because at some time in the future they will magically disappear just because he says so. Therefore, he wants them to vote for his GOP comrades despite the facts that the economy sucks, and the war rages on, and everything else that Trump has wrecked is still screwed up. Just STFU and vote for MAGA and your dreams will come true. But not until after the election!?!

It’s ironic that Trump is accusing Iran of being “desperate to try and affect the election.” Which is exactly what Trump is trying to do with these comments. What’s more, Trump is also desperately trying to affect the elections with his efforts to obstruct voting, and gerrymandering of districts, and interjecting the federal government into elections that are the jurisdiction of the states according to the Constitution.

Clearly the desperate party here is Trump. And his whining and tantrums just make that all the more obvious. Trump wants people to have blind faith that he will resolve all of their problems by waving his magic wand. But that pitch isn’t even fooling all of his MAGA-tist disciples anymore. Now, with Trump’s declaration that our problems won’t be fixed until after the elections, November – more than ever – can’t come soon enough.

Ken Paxton’s BS AI Campaign Ad Features a Fake James Talarico Misquoting Himself

With the advent of Artificial Intelligence, a wealth of information has become instantly available and exploitable to advance research and expand knowledge. But at the same time much of what people relate to as reality is vulnerable to distortion and outright, deliberate deception.

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

Republican Elephant Lies

If this technology is to be adopted in a useful, non-harmful way, there needs to be thoughtful consideration given to imposing regulatory guardrails to prevent misuse and abuse. Without that we will see nefarious scam artists taking advantage of it to enrich themselves and victimize others. And political partisans will purposely contrive their use of AI to align with their biases.

FOR INSTANCE: Trump’s Truth Social AI ChatBot Relies Almost Entirely on Fox News and Other Trump-Fluffing Media

If you’ve been wondering when we would see the worst of what AI is capable of, that time has come. The Republican Senate candidate in Texas, Ken Paxton, has released a campaign ad that features an AI representation of his Democratic opponent, James Talarico. The ad is entirely generated with AI and shows Talarico supposedly speaking in his own voice, and saying things that would disturb many Texan voters. Talarico is shown reading from a King James Talarico bible and “saying” that…

“In the beginning God was non-binary, and he wasn’t a Christian. And God said let there be six genders, and there were. Then God so loved the world, he gave us his only son, who is a radical feminist and never asked people to worship him. Look, I always think of myself as a Christian who hates Christianity. America is not a Christian nation.”

For the record, Talarico did say some of that, but in a much broader context that refutes the implications that Paxton is making. For example, regarding a non-binary God, Talarico, who is studying to be a Presbyterian minister, was citing his faith’s doctrine that God is neither male nor female, but transcends being merely human. And what he hates about Christianity are professed Christians who are hypocrites who betray the religion. You know…like Paxton.

Paxton’s ad was an entirely dishonest piece of political bullshittery. And true to his inbred hypocrisy, Paxton presented the ad by accusing Talarico of “weaponizing faith to sell a radical agenda.” Which is exactly what Paxton’s ad does. And the only indication that the version of Talarico in the ad was fake was a bit of tiny print near the end that said “Certain video content depicted in this advertising was generated by artificial intelligence.”

That almost impossible to notice disclaimer appeared for all of four seconds. Also, it wasn’t “certain video content” that was AI generated. It was all of it.

The good news is that Paxton has purchased airtime to run this ad on the radical, far-right “news” channel, Newsmax, during the Trump-a-Palooza event that Republicans are staging in Dallas, Texas. That midterm GOP convention is unlikely to be seen by many television viewers, because hardly any networks are bothering to air it. And since Newsmax, Fox News, and OAN viewers are already fully indoctrinated MAGA cult disciples, the whole campaign is waste of time and money.

Fox News Shamelessly Shills for the Trump-a-Palooza While Republicans Avoid it Like the Plague

When a political party finds itself in an unrecoverable downward spiral they often resort to extraordinary measures to attempt to avoid disaster. And with the midterm elections rapidly approaching, that’s where the Republican Party finds itself as it flounders near the bottom of the Mariana Trench of approval ratings.

Donald Trump Circling the Drain

To be fair, the abysmal prospects of the GOP (Greedy One Percent) aren’t attributable solely to their own broadly unpopular policies. They are being driven down by the even greater unpopularity of their Dear Leader, Donald Trump, who they they blindly cling to like good, obedient cult disciples. For Trump’s part, he seems to be too cognitively impaired to recognize his sorry state.

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

Given their dire electoral diagnosis, Republicans have scheduled a first-of-its-kind mid-term political convention to juice their standings with voters who are frustrated by the incompetence of the Trump regime. They are tired of paying more for gas, groceries, healthcare, housing, etc. They are sick of persistent wars that serve no national security purpose. They are appalled by trivial projects (ballrooms, arches, reflecting pools, etc.) aimed at satiating the ego of Trump.

How this convention – better known as Trump-a-Palooza – will help the GOP’s approval is a mystery. It’s being held in Texas, a state where Republicans shouldn’t need any help. And unlike ordinary conventions, there is no official business to conduct. No candidates will be nominated. No platforms will be drafted. In fact, it’s just another project to fluff Trump’s massive yet fragile ego.

The foregoing notwithstanding, Fox News is assuming their customary role as Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda. In a segment devoted to the TrumpFest, Cheryl Casone interviewed Joe Gruters, the chairman of the Republican National Committee…

Casone: The RNC just confirmed to Fox that more than 2,000 tickets have been distributed ahead of the convention. So tell us more about this convention and also the cash advantage for you and the RNC. The big question is ‘Where are you gonna deploy the money?’
Gruters: Well, listen, I think that people are giving us money because they believe in the agenda that we’re selling to the American people. and I think they believe in what the president is doing.

Notice that Casone asked Gruters two questions: Tell us more about this convention, and where are you gonna deploy the money. He didn’t answer either one.

It doesn’t seem like they have much to brag about. To begin with, Casone says that “2,000 tickets have been distributed.” Not sold. Which is significant because the tickets when purchased by GOP candidates, officials, and corporate sponsors, are reported to cost between $25,000 and $100,000. And much of that money goes straight into Trump’s SuperPAC. What’s more, the venue for the event is the American Airlines Center in Dallas, that has a capacity of 20,000. So with just five days left, they have only “distributed” 10% of the tickets.

More importantly, the expectations for attendance are, to say the least, disappointing. As reported by The New Republic, “Republicans Are Fleeing Trump’s Weird Midterms Convention.”

“A Politico survey of more than 70 Republican candidates and party members found that most were not planning to attend the two-day function that begins September 9.” […]

“[Many] were planning to dodge the event, which has been dubbed ‘Trump-a-palooza,’ in order to avoid being held accountable for the president’s inflammatory rhetoric.”

Avoiding Trump’s “inflammatory rhetoric” is only part of the story. Republican candidates nationwide are telling Trump to stay away because they don’t want his stench of failure rubbing off on them. More specifically, they don’t want to be associated with his fiasco in Iran, or his inflationary tariffs, or his support for AI data centers, or his embrace of America’s adversaries in Russia, China, and North Korea.

So dozens of Republicans aren’t gong to his convention that takes place two months before the election. It’s also one day before the anniversary of 9/11, that every living former president is memorializing in New York. Trump, however, is not attending because, like every other politician, he wasn’t permitted to speak.

Moreover, since pocketbook issues generally dominate political campaigns, Trump’s GOP comrades don’t want to be associated with his rampant corruption and the financial misconduct that is filling his bank accounts. The American people are through tolerating Trump enriching himself while they suffer, and then trying to tell them that everything is going great.

UPDATE: As predicted, the Trump LoserFest is a pitiful dud…

CORRUPT AF: Trump Dishes Out FEMA Aid as Political Payola to Help GOP Candidates in Red States

Throughout the history of the United States its greatest leaders have endeavored to act on behalf of all of the people of the country, without regard to their politics. They have sought fairness and unity and the benefit of the common good. And while there have been exceptions to this, there is no one who comes close to the gross partisanship of Donald Trump.

Trump Baby on Cash Pile

From his first days in office Trump has been brazenly dedicated to advancing only the interests of his own Republican (aka MAGA) Party. Even then, it was only when those interests were aligned with his egocentric ambitions to increase his personal wealth and power. And he had a particularly difficult time distinguishing between his interests and those of his comrades or the country.

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

On Tuesday Trump was busying himself with doling out federal funds to improperly buy the loyalty of his fellow Republicans. In a series of comments posted to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, Trump announced his bestowing of more than $100 million in taxpayer money, in the form of FEMA grants, to the red states that have been supportive of him. And he wasn’t the least bit shy about his blatant politicization of federal disaster relief funds. Here is what he said about each of these dirty disbursements…

  • Kentucky: I just informed Andy Barr, who is running to be the next Senator from the incredible Commonwealth of Kentucky, that I am approving 9.1 Million Dollars…Vote for Andy Barr.
  • Kansas: I just informed Senator Roger Marshall, who has my Complete and Total Endorsement, that I am granting 13.2 Million Dollars.
  • Iowa: I just spoke to the future Senator (Hopefully!) from the Great State of Iowa, Ashley Hinson, and told her that I am approving 5 Million Dollars…I love Iowa, and won it BIG.
  • Texas: I just informed Governor Greg Abbott, of the GREAT State of Texas (who has my Complete and Total Endorsement for Re-Election!), that I am sending 50.5 Million Dollars. I will be back soon to support Governor Abbott, Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, Ken Paxton for U.S. Senate.
  • South Dakota: I just spoke with Governor Larry Rhoden, of the Great State of South Dakota, and informed him that I am approving 3.4 Million Dollars.
  • North Dakota: I just spoke with Governor Kelly Armstrong, of the beautiful State of North Dakota, and told him I am approving 3.4 Million Dollars…I won BIG all three times.
  • Missouri: I just informed Governor Mike Kehoe that I am approving 19.9 Million Dollars for the Great State of Missouri.

Notice that Trump explicitly presented several of his gifts/bribes to the Republican candidates in those red states, not the governors who receive and distribute such funds. Even for Kentucky and Kansas, he didn’t even mention their governors, who happen to be Democrats.

Trump’s reference to the politics of his identified recipients, and his bragging about past election results, makes it unmistakable that these FEMA grants were not meant to benefit disaster victims. They are in-kind donations to GOP political campaigns in the nine weeks remaining before the midterm elections.

In July, Trump blocked aid to blue states – New Jersey, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New York – after FEMA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration determined that they met the requirements for receiving aid. Even worse, a study by E&E News by Politico found that Trump “has approved just 23 percent of blue state requests for disaster aid, compared to 89 percent for red states.” Sen. Gary Peters (D-MI) put that study to good use in a Senate hearing where he confronted Homeland Security Secretary, Markwayne Mullin…

PETERS: Yes or no, do you think it's right for a president to approve disaster aid based on whether a state voted for him instead of the amount of damage in the state? This chart behind me is pretty dramaticMARKWAYNE MULLIN: That's not my experience of the president P: This chart speaks volumes

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-06-02T20:00:31.487Z

This is all further evidence that Trump hates America. He is only for himself. If he sees no personal advantage to any policy that crosses his desk, it goes in the trash. But he will spend unlimited amounts of the money of the American people – including that intended for disaster victims – on himself and dole it out to anyone who fluffs his insatiable ego.

Wannabe Fascist Dictator Trump is Reporting Meet the Press Host to His FCC – For ‘Punishment’?

The most media averse president in the history of the United States, Donald Trump, is once again demonstrating his inbred hostility to the free press and the Constitution that explicitly protects it in the very First Amendment.

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

Donald Trump

What America’s founders saw as an indispensable facet of freedom and democracy, Trump sees as “the enemy of the people,” a phrase that he borrowed from Joseph Stalin. He insults journalists personally in the most vile and infantile manner, and disparages the entire industry as “fake News.” It’s another symptom of the severe delusional impairment that permeates everything he does or says.

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

On Sunday morning Trump was busy doing what he regards as his presidential duties: posting deranged rants on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. And true to form, many of those rants concerned the media that he despises. Consequently, he led off with a short harangue whining that

“THE FAKE POLLS USED BY OUR CROOKED MEDIA ARE OUT OF CONTROL, AND SOMETHING MUST BE DONE ABOUT IT. FCC TO THE RESCUE!”

That’s right. Trump is outraged by all the polls that show him floundering in the depths of the Mariana Trench of Disapproval. To be sure, he has sunk to record lows in virtually every poll, and continues to trend downward. So now he insists that “SOMETHING MUST BE DONE,” and that it’s up to his FCC (Fascist Communications Commission) to do it. You might ask, “To do what?” Well, he got to that in a subsequent comment that is too long and tedious to repost. So here are a couple of relevant excerpts…

“Kristen Welker, the Unpopular ‘Hostess’ of the once great Meet the Press, now considered Meet the Fake Press, just stated that Donald Trump has ‘mixed results’ on his Endorsements […] Because of this purposeful inaccuracy, she will be reported to the FCC for rebuke or punishment. Unfortunately, she is not the only one. The Radical Left News is going out of their way to harass, demean, and libel anything ‘TRUMP.’ […] The Press is a Disgrace to our Nation, and I hope that Chairman Brendan Carr, and the fine people of his Commission, will take this Threat to our Country very seriously.”

And there you have it. Hall monitor Trump says that Welker “will be reported to the FCC for rebuke or punishment.” Then what? Will she have to stay after school? Will she get 20 whacks? Or will she be deported to a gulag in El Salvador?

Welker’s alleged offense was that she accurately reported that many of Trump’s recent endorsed candidates have met with defeat. In fact, that was what comprised most of Trump’s endless comment that was primarily him bragging about his “99% SUCCESS Rate on Endorsements.” What he fails to mention is that the vast majority of them were for Republican candidates in Republican primaries, many of whom had no viable opponent.

Trump also doesn’t distinguish between endorsements from months or years ago, and the more recent endorsements that have fared poorly, consistent with his devastating descent in the polls. Maybe someone should him about his “success” with Pillow Man Mike Lindell in Minnesota. Even Darline Graham Nordone, his endorsee in South Carolina, barely held onto a lead to replace her late brother Lindsey in the Senate.

Whether Welker was accurate or not is beside the point. Trump and his FCC don’t have any legal authority to dispense “rebuke or punishment” to the press for what they consider to be inaccuracies. There is, however, a civil process for recovering damages in the event of defamation. Fox News found out about that when they were forced to pay a $787 million settlement to Dominion Software for lying about the 2020 presidential election being “rigged and stolen” from Trump.

Trump, on the other hand, has zero evidence of any defamatory dishonesty on the part of Welker or NBC. This is just another attempt on his part to bully the media into submission for not gushing adoringly over him every minute of every day. And Trump may be especially angry with Welker. He walked out of a recent interview with her because he couldn’t handle her entirely reasonable questions.

Finally, Trump’s “hope that [FCC] Chairman Brendan Carr…take this Threat to our Country very seriously,” is his clumsily covert way of issuing orders to the flunkies on his team to bring their fascist hammer down on the free press. It’s a tactic that he has learned from his idols Vladimir Putin of Russia, and Kim Jong Un of North Korea.

Trump Blasts the Republican Party, Whining ‘They Don’t Fully Grasp How Badly They Are F*ing Up’

The Ego That Ate D.C., Donald Trump, is on the hunt again for prey that it can devour to sustain its Reign of Terror. It has an insatiable appetite that threatens to drive its potential victims into extinction. Which, in the big picture, would be a desirable outcome.

Donald Trump, Republican, GOP

Trump is suffering the lowest approval ratings of either of his occupations of the White House. Consequently, he is determined to shift any blame for that away from himself and onto the unfortunate MAGA parasites who depend on him for their political survival.

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

On Wednesday morning Trump took his presidential post on his pitiful Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, to deflect his failures onto the Republican Party that he supposedly leads. He reposted a comment that complained that “I don’t think the GOP fully grasp how badly they are f*cking up right now.” There’s actually some truth to that, although not in the way it was meant. The post continued with a list of examples of what Trump believes are missteps by GOP that are responsible for his abysmal polling. They include…

  • No true accountability.
  • No meaningful decrease in the deficit.
  • Lots of very long vacations and no work.
  • No bills being passed that REDUCE the government involvement in their lives.
  • Where are all the DOGE cuts that were promised?
  • Where is the SAVE ACT?

It’s true that Republicans have failed to fulfill the disingenuous promises that Trump made during his campaign. But the fault is as much with Trump as it is with the Republicans in Congress.

More importantly, the post left out the two issues that the majority of voters – including the MAGA-tists – are most upset about: Trump’s reckless and illegal war against Iran, and the war and tariff driven inflation that is burdening Americans with higher costs for groceries, gas, healthcare, housing, and more.

The comment that Trump reposted does express the dissatisfaction that Trump’s MAGA cult are feeling. But it mistakenly assumes that the GOP, and by extension Trump, doesn’t “fully grasp how badly they are f*cking up.” Of course they do. And Trump grasps it too. Which is why he’s shoveling the blame onto his party mates to absolve himself.

The real problem is that none of them have the slightest idea how to fix any of it. So the blame will be flying around in every direction between now and the November election. They have already tried blaming Presidents Biden and Obama, but that hasn’t stuck given that they have been out of office for years.

So it’s good to see that Trump is now conceding – at least for the time being – that it is his own party that is F*ing up. And some members of the GOP are reciprocating by refusing to campaign with Trump in the lead up to the midterm elections, because they know that any association with him would hurt their electoral prospects.

In November we will likely see Democrats win majorities in the House of Representatives, and possibly in the Senate as well. And in January the change in Congress will make Trump the lamest of ducks, and the subject of long-delayed oversight hearings and accountability. So if you think he’s whining now, you aint seen nothin’ yet.

Trump Begs His MAGA Cult to ‘Pretend That I’m on the Ballot’ – And Democrats Concur

It’s always obvious when Donald Trump is having a panic attack about matters that are beyond the control of his narcissistic malignancy. He typically lashes out frantically at his perceived political enemies, hurls infantile insults at the free press that he abhors, and beseeches his MAGA cult disciples to worship him harder.

Donald Trump, Mocking Disability

With the rapidly approaching midterm election bearing down on Trump and his MAGA confederates, he recognizes, but will never admit, that the prospects for a Republican victory are dim. Consequently, he is trying on new campaign themes almost every day. They range from rehashing the “red scare” of the 1950s, wherein he accuses all Democrats of being communists, to outright lying about how successfully he has restored the economy that he wrecked with tariffs and war and general ignorance.

On Friday Trump attended a rally in South Carolina in support of GOP Senate candidate Darline Graham, who he has endorsed. As usual, he spent most of his 90 minute harangue exalting himself. But in a surprising departure from his common conceit and ego-fluffing, Trump put his electoral anxiety on display. For instance, he implored his MAGA-tists to demonstrate their adoration by showing up to vote in November. Openly begging, Trump explained that…

“The problem that we have is, they say that Trump does great when he’s on the ballot, but when he’s not on the ballot, his people don’t come and they don’t vote for senators, congressmen and other Republicans. So what I really want you to do is pretend, please, that I’m on the ballot.”

This request was likely fueled by the fact that, in recent Republican primaries, six of Trump’s endorsed candidates lost. Even Graham, the candidate he was there to promote, failed to get enough votes to avoid a runoff. Therefore, he is resorting to pleading for his peons to “pretend” that he’s on the ballot. Which is an admission that the Republicans he is pushing are too lame to get votes on their own.

Of course, it’s Trump’s widespread unpopularity that is likely the main reason for the GOP’s recent defeats. So if Republican candidates choose to tie themselves closer to Trump, it will probably do them more harm than good. Democrats, meanwhile, will eagerly welcome Republicans embracing their lame duck leader, who will lead them to more failures. And that’s not the only reason Democrats are supporting Trump’s recent remarks. He also told the rally crowd that…

“If we lose you’re going to lose your border, you’re going to lose your tax cuts, you’re going to lose everything that we’ve done, we’ve gotten the biggest tax cuts in history…I’m going to be impeached. They’re going to impeach me. They have no idea why.”

Let’s set aside Trump’s claims about what would be lost, because they are all lies. On the other hand, his “warning” that he would be impeached will resonate as an incentive to most Democrats, Independents, and even some disaffected Republicans. And if Trump needs some reminders of why so many Americans want him impeached, he can just rerefer to his illegal war against Iran, his illegal tariffs, his illegal acceptance of gifts (including a $400 million dollar jet), his illegal vandalizing of property in D.C., and his illegal enrichment of himself. And that’s the abridged list.

What’s more, the prospect of Trump’s impeachment will drive higher voter turnout by Americans who want to hasten the end of his reoccupation of the White House. And that’s an outcome that nobody will need to pretend to enjoy.
