Crybaby Trump Whines that ‘NBC Should Fire’ Seth Meyers, and Worse, His Flunky FCC Chief Agrees

Posted by Mark NC on November 16, 2025 at 11:59 am. 1 Comments :

Throughout his occupation of the White House, Donald Trump has impressively proven his steadfast dependability on staying focused on issues that have little to no relevance to the American people. He’s a walking exhibition of the single-minded persistence of a mule suffering from OCD.

Among the issues that have dominated Trump’s cartoon brain are his lies about his electoral loss in 2020, his obsession with persecuting his political foes, his inbred hatred of immigrants, his suppression of the free press, his shuttering agencies that provide benefits to the needy, and his determination to enrich himself and cling to power.

Another one of Trump’s fanatical fetishes is his aversion to being mocked by comedians. His tender feelings are so sensitive that he becomes apoplectic whenever he is the butt of even a mild joke. And that sensitivity was on display in a comment that he posted to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, on Saturday night. Reacting to a segment from Friday’s episode of “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” Trump seethed that…

“NBC’s Seth Meyers is suffering from an incurable case of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). He was viewed last night in an uncontrollable rage, likely due to the fact that his ‘show’ is a Ratings DISASTER. Aside from everything else, Meyers has no talent, and NBC should fire him, IMMEDIATELY!”

Widdle Donnie Trump is a fragile flower who can't take a joke. Because he IS a joke.So he whines that "NBC should fire" Seth Meyers. And his FCC flunky, Brenden Carr, obediently parrots his censorious demand.

There’s a steaming pile of derp to unpack in that outburst. Let’s start with the fact that Meyers’ show is not “a Ratings DISASTER.” NBC reported its season-to-date average for Meyers at about 1.031 million viewers. Which is pretty good for a post-midnight program. And NBC recently renewed his contract, which drew a threat from Trump. What’s more, at no point was Meyers “in an uncontrollable rage.” Rather, he was calmly delivering his material as usual. See for yourself…

However, perhaps the most troubling thing about Trump’s latest humorsexual harassment is that it was quickly taken up by his chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, Brendan Carr, who retweeted Trump’s harangue. Carr is notorious for adopting Trump’s hatred for the media, and particularly comedians. He reveled in the brief suspension of Jimmy Kimmel. And he implied on Fox News that he and Trump played a role in the cancelation of Stephen Colbert’s show.

Trump’s hatred and fear of Meyers, Colbert, and Kimmel is shared by his BFF in Moscow, Vladimir Putin, whose government has banned all three of them from Russia. And if Trump has his way, they will suffer the same fate in the U.S.

Which is where Carr comes in. He has the power to threaten the local affiliates of the network with revocation of their broadcast licenses and disapproval of business ventures. Currently NBC’s parent company, Comcast, is exploring a bid to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery. For which they would need the approval of the Trump administration.

Trump isn’t bothering to hide his authoritarian aspirations. He is chomping at the bit to deep six anyone who dares to criticize him, whether they be members of Congress, journalists, or comedians. And his contempt for Meyers has deep roots. Meyers’ delivered a withering monologue at the White House Correspondents Dinner in 2011. And it is a certainty that Trump has not forgotten it…

Seth Meyers Triggers Crybaby Trump to Whine that Being Anti-Trump is ‘Probably Illegal’

Posted by Mark NC on November 2, 2025 at 10:50 am. 3 Comments :

For anyone who is still not fully convinced that Donald Trump has authoritarian aspirations, he helpfully continues to provide more proof every day. In both his words and actions Trump demonstrates that he has an insatiable compulsion to reign as an unchallengeable dictator who demands unflinching loyalty to him alone.

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

The range of Trump’s atrocities in the past nine months of his second occupation of the White House is impressively tyrannical. He could not be more clear about his nefarious intentions. And his Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt was kind enough to remind us all of the sort of monstrous things that Trump is doing while the American people suffer.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, is HORRIFIED…By a White House Toilet?

The latest example of Trump’s blatant fomenting of fascism comes in another one of his comments posted to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. In a typically rancid outburst, Trump lashed out at late night talk show host, Seth Meyers, for hilariously mocking Trump’s ignorance and obsession with petty grievances that he pitifully fails to understand. Trump raged that…

“Seth Meyers of NBC may be the least talented person to ‘perform’ live in the history of television. In fact, he may be the WORST to perform, live or otherwise. I watched his show the other night for the first time in years. In it he talked endlessly about electric catapults on aircraft carriers which I complain about as not being as good as much less expensive steam catapults. On and on he went, a truly deranged lunatic. Why does NBC waste its time and money on a guy like this??? – NO TALENT, NO RATINGS, 100% ANTI TRUMP, WHICH IS PROBABLY ILLEGAL!!!”

Trump’s animus toward Meyers has been a decades long affair. It likely began when Meyers was the featured comedian at the White House Correspondents Dinner in 2011, where he performed a killer routine that took some jolting jabs at Trump, who obviously didn’t think it was funny. So it hardly matters that today Trump thinks Meyers is untalented. He’s been saying that for years. And he’s still saying it as recently as this past August…

MORE HERE: Snowflake Trump Blasts Seth Meyers and Threatens Comcast Because Jokes Hurt His Tender Fee Fees

What matters is that Trump closed his rant by whining that Meyers was “ANTI TRUMP, WHICH IS PROBABLY ILLEGAL!!!” That’s right. The American PINO (President in Name Only) has declared that it’s illegal to be anti-Trump. And all because Meyers revealed that Trump is an idiot who knows nothing about whatever subject he is stuck on. On this occasion it was the differences between steam powered or electro-magnetic catapults on aircraft carriers (Video below).

TRUMP: “They’re spending billions of dollars to build stupid electric. And the problem, when it breaks, you have to send up to MIT, get the most brilliant people in the world, fly them out, it’s ridiculous. The steam they said they could fix with a hammer and a blowtorch and it works just as well if not better. And I love the sight of that beautiful steam pouring off that deck – with the electric, you don’t have that.” […]
MEYERS: “[Trump] spends more time thinking about catapults than Wile E Coyote. Next, they’re gonna start complaining how our troops don’t tie themselves to rockets anymore, [Imitating Trump] ‘We used to strap our soldiers to the rockets and they loved it, but then everything got woke and they said ‘You can’t tie a person to a rocket. But we miss those days and we’re bringing them back.'”

Then Meyers delivers his new segment “Seth Translates Trump To English,” in which he gives an explanation of the difference between the catapults that is far more detailed than anything Trump could do. Meyers also provides another example of Trump saying that any criticism of him is treason.

It Trump really wants to make any criticism of him a breach of the law – or even worse, treason – he’s going to have to build a lot more prisons. Or at least make more deals for millions of cells is foreign gulags. Needless to say, he won’t get away with it. But he can still do some short term damage. And he must not be allowed any leeway for any of it.

It will take a broad coalition of patriots – Democrats, Independents, and Republicans – as well as the courts and the Congress to smack down Trump’s anti-American crusade. We are all necessary in this valiant fight to 8647. Be strong, and be ready. And recognize that Trump and his MAGA clown brigades are far weaker than he wants you to believe.

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

Posted by Mark NC on October 7, 2025 at 12:17 pm. 2 Comments :

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Posted by Mark NC on October 4, 2025 at 12:09 pm. 0 Comments :

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Democratic meltdown over the sombreros shows how Democrats lack a sense of humor.

My goodness, if we can’t laugh, how do we get through difficult times?

Credit to President Trump & his social media team for having the greatest sense of humor in presidential history.

The… pic.twitter.com/izAQAfdaiD

— Kari Lake (@KariLake) October 3, 2025

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

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

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

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

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

Fox News is Hot on the Trail of the Presidential Health Story – Bill Clinton’s, Not Trump

Posted by Mark NC on August 30, 2025 at 1:16 pm. 0 Comments :

The assortments of “firsts” achieved by Donald Trump is extraordinarily long, and littered mainly by affairs most often associated with shame and disgrace. For instance, he is the first president to be impeached twice; the first to have been convicted of felonies; the first to have been adjudicated as a rapist; the first to engage in the flagrant profiteering of the presidency. And that’s an abridged list.

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

Another milestone achieved by Trump is that he is currently first among the most elderly American presidents. Now at 79, Trump is showing his age. He noticeably hobbles to and from his planes and limousines. And recent photos have shown him with severe bruises on his hands and badly swollen ankles. Both of which can be symptoms of more serious ailments. Yet he refuses to release detailed medical reports from his annual physicals. Although, he does frequently boast about his alleged mental acuity in a manner that is more revealing of cognitive dysfunction than clarity.

SEE THIS: YIKES! Trump Admits His Dreams of Dictatorship, While Bragging About ‘Acing’ a Dementia Test

Naturally, Fox News is vigorously pursuing the timely and relevant story of the health of an American president. Just like they did when Joe Biden had the job. Except for one little thing. The president whose health they are probing is Bill Clinton, who left office 27 years ago. According to Fox News…

“Former President Bill Clinton is facing questions about his health after he was spotted in the Hamptons with what appeared to be a portable defibrillator. Photographs show someone accompanying the 79-year-old Democrat and his wife, Hillary, carrying what appeared to be a medical device.”

Fox News notes that “In 2004, he underwent quadruple bypass surgery. [And that] Years later, in 2010, he had another heart surgery in which he received coronary stents.” And demonstrating their journalistic bona fides, Fox News Digital “contacted Katz’s Delicatessen to verify Clinton’s order.” Watch out Woodward and Bernstein!

While Fox News was nailing down this epic scoop, the phrase “#TrumpIsDead” was a trending topic on Twitter/X for several hours. Obviously that isn’t true, but the reactions have been entertaining. The left is fake-celebrating, with clear knowledge that it’s a joke. MAGA, on the other hand, is furiously debunking it as if it were a serious news story.

Meanwhile, Trump isn’t helping matters by declaring his hopes of going to Heaven. “I want to try to get to Heaven if possible,” Trump grumbled. “I’m hearing I’m not doing well. I am really at the bottom of the totem pole.” Why is he suddenly fretting about his fate in the afterlife? Does he know something?

Trump makes the ascension to Heaven sound like it’s a prize to be won on a reality TV game show, like the one that he used to host. What’s more, he wasn’t seen in public for five days, until Sunday when the White House allowed him to be photographed on his way to his golf resort in Virginia. And even in that staged photo-op he didn’t look particularly well, and wasn’t seen golfing.

And yet, 79 year old Bill Clinton, with a history of heart problems, is seen with an aide carrying a medical device, and the MAGA media goes apeshit? They never bother to explore the very real health concerns of their Dear Leader, that actually ought to trouble them. But if Clinton or Biden get a pimple it dominates the news cycle for three weeks.

If Trump were to actually shuffle off this mortal coil, Fox News would likely report it as bad cold. And Trump’s cult followers would insist that he was still alive and partying with JFK Jr. Or worse, they would accuse some innocent Democrat of assassinating him. They are, if nothing else, imaginative.

Big Baby Trump Celebrates CBS Firing Stephen Colbert and Hopes that Jimmy Kimmel Will Be Next

Posted by Mark NC on July 18, 2025 at 1:15 pm. 3 Comments :

The innately infantile tendencies of Donald Trump are on display again as he reacts to the announcement by Paramount/CBS that this season will be the last for its hit program, “Late Night with Stephen Colbert,” after ten successful and hilarious years. Colbert himself revealed the bad news to his audience on Thursday night, that the show will go dark when this season ends in May of 2026.

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

The timing for this announcement could not be more suspicious. Paramount is in the midst of a proposed multibillion dollar merger with Skydance Media, a firm owned by Trump’s billionaire pals David and Larry Ellison. Paramount recently settled an utterly meritless lawsuit with Trump, paying $16 million to grease the wheels for Trump’s administration to approve the merger.

SEE THIS: Paramount Caves to Trump’s Extortion, Disgraces CBS, Pays a $16M Bribe to Settle a Bogus Lawsuit

Meanwhile, Colbert’s monologue on Monday night addressed the merger and the corrupt settlement. And he was not shy about criticizing what he called a “big fat bribe.”

This Stephen Colbert monologue from Monday night, followed by a bit about the MAGA contingent calling for Trump to release the Epstein files, is the reason why Paramount fired Colbert and canceled his show. That, and the Midterm elections are coming up, and he would continue to go after Trump.

— Amee Vanderpool (@girlsreallyrule.bsky.social) 2025-07-18T00:37:15.836Z

No one should be surprised that Trump lashed out maniacally upon hearing about Colbert’s cancelation. Trump posted a typically noxious comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, to gloat over what is sad news – not just for Colbert and his staff – but for millions of Americans who find joy and solace in Colbert’s humor and insights.

“I absolutely love that Colbert’ got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings. I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert! Greg Gutfeld is better than all of them combined, including the Moron on NBC who ruined the once great Tonight Show.”

There’s a lot of bullpucky stuffed into that blast of explosive dia-rhetoric. Beginning with Trump’s orgasmic pleasure from the hardship of others. More to the point, Trump is hardly a credible source for measuring the talent of any entertainer. His own talent is mainly limited to whining, exalting himself, insulting people, and shamelessly lying.

Trump shows off that, despite 14 seasons on TV, he has a profound ignorance of television ratings. He doesn’t know that Colbert is the highest rated late night talk show, and that its popularity is still growing. It was the only late night show to draw more total viewers in the second quarter of 2025 than it had in the first.

Trump goes on to praise Fox News hate-comic, Greg Gutfeld, whose idea of comedy is mocking the homeless and openly referring to himself a Nazi, as in “What up, my Nazi.” And it makes no sense to compare Colbert to Gutfeld because Gutfeld is not a late night program. It airs at 11:00 PM only on the east coast. Everywhere else in the country he is on in prime time. If Trump knew anything about how ratings work, he would know that you can’t compare programs in different time periods. HUT levels (Homes Using Television) are much higher prime time. Even so, Colbert gets a higher viewing share than Gutfeld.

Trump’s obsession with celebrities is evident in his frequent attacks on those who don’t worship him. In addition to his hatred for Colbert and Kimmel, Trump has recently gone after Rosie O’Donnell, whose citizenship he threatened to revoke and said is “a threat to humanity.” And he maligned Bruce Springsteen as a “dried up old prune.” And he famously posted that “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT.”

So Trump is clearly in touch with the American people, right? I mean, who doesn’t hate Taylor Swift and Bruce Springsteen? And Trump is currently languishing at record lows in every poll. So it’s all working for him, isn’t it?

And then there's this…"Newsweek's tracker, which shows Trump's net approval rating at an all-time low of -11 points, with 43 percent approving and 54 percent disapproving."www.newsweek.com/donald-trump…

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-07-18T16:51:28.378Z

As for Colbert, he will land on his feet. He has ten months to prepare for the next chapter in his career. He is a valuable brand that could succeed at levels transcending what he achieved at CBS. Many other former mainstream media folk are doing so. In fact, Colbert might have been goading CBS into firing him so that he could prosper more with his own media venture. But Trump will always wallow in mud and, with any luck, will end up in his Alligator Alcatraz.

The Daily Show Hysterically Skewers Trump and Republicans for Blatantly Lying About Tariffs

Posted by Mark NC on April 4, 2025 at 1:36 pm. 1 Comments :

Two days after “Liberation Day” (as Donald Trump likes to call the day he imposed his disastrous tariffs on the world), the stock market is once again in a tailspin, erasing much of the gains from the past few months and depleting the savings of millions of investors and especially retirees. It’s the worst decline since March of 2020, during COVID. And it’s a wholly self-inflicted economic apocalypse that Trump somehow regards as proof that everything is – in his own words – “going well.”

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

Sure it is. It’s going to be just fine if you happen to have a few billion dollars and can spend your days playing golf and sailing on your superyacht. The rest of us need to just STFU and put our blind faith behind Dear Leader Trump who, despite having bankrupted four casinos, and presided over the last stock market crash, and has embraced the world’s wealthiest robber barons (Musk, Zuckerberg, Bezos, Putin, etc.), is hailed by the MAGA cult as an infallible messiah.

SEE THIS: TRUST IN TRUMP? That’s the Only Solution Offered By the Trump Cult to Counter His Disastrous Tariffs

As is often the case, the truth about many of America’s most prominent catastrophes has been summed up in the insightful political satire of The Daily Show. Host Michael Kosta did a better analysis of Trump’s tariff fiasco than much of the mainstream media. He began by putting the blame for the nation’s ills where it belongs… On all of us.

“Whether you like it or not, Republicans don’t want to hear your bitching, because we all knew this was coming.”

[Plays clip of MAGA media hacks saying that everyone knew prices would go up]

“That’s right voters. You can bellyache all you want, but we all knew what we were voting for. Trump was very honest during the campaign that tariffs would drive prices higher, right? Right? RIGHT?”

[Plays clip of Trump promising that tariffs would not drive prices higher]

“Okay, technically he said prices wouldn’t go up, but in his defense, he was lying. And you should have known that, so that’s on you.”

Michael Kosta of the Daily Show on #TrumpTariffs:

"OK, technically he said prices wouldn't go up. But in his defense, he was lying. And you should have have known that, so that's on you." https://t.co/J3UpMvbbix

— News Corpse (@NewsCorpse) April 4, 2025

See? It’s the fault of voters for not knowing that everything Trump says is a lie. And sadly, in this regard, Kosta is actually making a good point. The people who voted for Trump had mountains of evidence, compiled over dozens of years, that he couldn’t be trusted to tell the truth about anything. And yet, they voted for him hoping that this time he would come through and fulfill the promises that he made, despite having no idea how to do so, or any record of having done it in the past.

The question going forward is whether those voters will believe anything that Trump is saying now. He continues to defend his horrendously harmful policies, even insisting in an all-caps post on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, that “MY POLICIES WILL NEVER CHANGE.”

That declaration is wrong on so many levels. First of all, he has already said that he would change his tariff policies for any country that agrees to make concessions. Secondly, never changing the policies, if he held to that, would mean permanent tariffs and permanent higher costs for American consumers. Third, this comment was meant to assuage the concerns of potential investors, who already don’t trust him and regard him as unreliable and unstable. For good reason.

So Trump’s declaration that his policies will never change is not only another lie, it would be devastating if it happened to be a rare instance of him telling the truth. Which, to be fair, he has done on occasion. For instance, on Friday morning he posted a comment on Truth Social that was surprisingly honest, saying that “Trump is Purposely Crashing The Market.” Of course he is. Because…because…be…oh f*ck it!

Trump actually posted this on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, that "Trump is Purposely Crashing The Market."There…Feel better now?

The Daily Show Welcomes the Astronauts Back to an Earth They Won’t Recognize Or Want to Live On

Posted by Mark NC on March 20, 2025 at 1:17 pm. 1 Comments :

It has been only 59 days since Donald Trump was inaugurated. And in the short passage of time he has managed to do more harm to American democracy than any prior occupant of the White House. His implementation of policies in conjunction with Elon Musk’s Department of Government Elimination (DOGE) are ripping apart the foundations of the American way of life.

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

If someone were to have been in a coma for the past three months, they would be awakening to a country that would seem foreign, oppressive, and steeped in the dystopia of totalitarian regimes. They would find it hard to believe that they weren’t still in a nightmarish comatose state. They would be seeing an autocratic leader imposing his will on the nation, disregarding its Constitution, and ignoring its laws.

SEE THIS: Trump is on a Crusade to Intimidate and Impeach Judges Who Dare to Rule Against Dear Leader

It’s not really funny. However, The Daily Show couldn’t resist bringing to life a scenario wherein someone who was temporarily removed from this world would be reintroduced to it in all its gory. So Desi Lydic anchored a video wherein she welcomed the astronauts who enjoyed an extended stay on the International Space Station back to what they thought was their home planet. She began with a hearty “Hello astronauts, and welcome back to Earth.” Then she went on (video below)…

“As you are flown back to the U.S., this video will re-acclimate your mind on what you missed while you were in space. First, the Gulf of Mexico you landed in is now the Gulf of America. But don’t worry, the name change is symbolic. We’re not going to war with Mexico. We’re going to war with Canada and Greenland, maybe Panama, also Mexico.”

Imagine their surprise to learn that Trump assumed the authority to rename international bodies of water to whatever he thought would tickle his cult followers. And worse, he embarked on a series of threats aimed at American allies, demanding that they bow to his will and agree to become colonies of the imperial empire he hopes to create. Then Lydic elaborated…

“Speaking of wars, when you left it was Russia that invaded Ukraine. Now it’s the other way around. Don’t worry about it. For now, just focus on resting. And after you enter U.S. territory, your space capsule will face crippling steel tariffs and you will be deported to an El Salvadorian prison just until we’re sure that you’re not Venezuelan gang members.

“And after your release in 2026, you will be honored at the White House, which is now run by Fox News anchors. Also, the anti-vaccine guy (RFK Jr) is now in charge of vaccines. The anti-FBI guy (Kash Patel) is now in charge of the FBI. And the lady in charge of the WWE (Linda McMahon) is now running the Education Department.”

That’s right! Whatever you thought you knew before you left, is no longer true. Russia is the American Fuhrer’s best buddy. Europe will be hammered with punitive tariffs. And Fox News now has a stranglehold on government operations with at least nineteen from their ranks working for Trump in the White House.

Lydic then points out that Trump is welcoming back all of the astronauts except for Suni Williams, because “when you left, you were a female astronaut. Now you’re a DEI astronaut, and also you’re fired.” And her job prospects are going to be hindered by an economy that is careening into recession. “The stock market is down, Lydic notes, “and eggs are $400.00. But those are both good things, and also Joe Biden’s fault.” Then Lydic closes saying that…

“At this point you’re probably wondering ‘When can NASA send me back up into space?’ Well, it probably can’t. NASA just got DOGE’d. Which is a real sentence now. So from all of us here in America, welcome to Hell – Earth. Welcome back to Earth.”

Lydic’s humorous take on current events is a welcome respite from the horror show being played out by Trump and company. And while the decidedly pessimistic outlook that anchors her comedy is, sadly, rooted in reality, there is a plus side. The American people are beginning to awaken themselves.

CNN’s Harry Enten unveiled the recent polling on Trump and his policies. And the numbers are likely to trigger another Trump tantrum. They show that Trump in his current term is only the second president since 1937 to have a net negative approval two months into a term. The other president to achieve that dishonor? That was also Trump in his first term. So at least he is consistent in his ignorance, incompetence, and deliberate malfeasance.

Enjoy Lydic’s welcoming to the astronauts. But don’t miss Jordan Klepper’s ruminations on Elon Musk.

Charlamagne Tha God to Democrats: If You Tell Us Someone is Hitler, At Least Act Like He’s Hitler

Posted by Mark NC on January 24, 2025 at 1:10 pm. NO Comments :

The presidential election of 2024 was an extraordinarily momentous and peculiar affair in the history of the United States. It pitted the first Black Vice-President, Kamala Harris, against the first convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and openly authoritarian aspirant, Donald Trump.

Trump’s craving for unchallenged dictatorial powers has been evident in his extremist rhetoric that embraces the sort of strongman reign enjoyed by his heroes, Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jong Un. He shamelessly advocates for reforms that give him sway over the other co-equal branches of government. He threatens to silence the free press. He ignores the Constitution and its limits on executive power. And he isn’t shy about declaring his supremacy over the whole of government, as he did explicitly in his inauguration address.

Throughout much of the 2024 campaign, Democrats staunchly stood up for democracy and the principles that have defined American freedom for more than two centuries. They emphatically warned of the dangers posed by Trump’s pursuit of a neo-fascist agenda inspired by another one his idols, Adolf Hitler, whose book of speeches Trump kept at his bedside, according to his ex-wife.

The Trump v Hitler comparisons practically wrote themselves. And Trump did little to discourage them. In fact, he seemed to regard them as compliments. Both Harris and President Biden spoke movingly about Trump’s threat to democracy and affinity for fascism. However, after the election, all of that seemed to evaporate. Biden and Harris attended Trump’s inauguration and greeted Trump to the White House. These absurd pleasantries were notice by Charlamagne tha God in a segment on Thursday’s episode of “The Daily Show” (video below)…

“What about the Democratic politicians who spent four years calling Trump the new Adolf Hitler, and then started doing stuff like this. I’m sorry. If you tell us someone is Hitler, you have to at least act like he’s Hitler. […] In fact, here’s the energy I wanted to see more of on Monday:

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: All these journalists are, like, Congresswoman, are you going to the inauguration? Let me make myself clear. I don’t celebrate rapists. So no, I’m not going to the inauguration.

“See? That’s right. That right there, that’s backbone. That’s principle. Man, I’m gonna miss AOC when she’s deported to Nicaragua.

“Listen man…Donald Trump won this election by a little over two million votes and Democrats are acting like he’s unstoppable. Do you remember how Republicans acted when Biden won by seven million votes? […] They tried to impeach Biden from day one for the crime of getting elected. I like that energy though. They weren’t worried about alienating Democrats. They said f**k Democrats. They riled up their base and it worked. Today Democrats are patting themselves on the back for allowing a peaceful transfer of power. And I have no problem with conceding the election. But don’t concede the Constitution.

“Democrats, I am begging you. For once, treat Republicans the way they treat you. And treat Trump as if you believed that everything you’ve said about him is true.”

‘Nuff said! Democrats, we’re all begging you. Trump is an imminent threat to democracy. He’s a foaming-at-the-mouth fascist. and we all need to treat him like one.

Snowflake Trump Blasts Seth Meyers and Threatens Comcast Because Jokes Hurt His Tender Fee Fees

Posted by Mark NC on January 14, 2025 at 1:29 pm. 3 Comments :

With just six days until Donald Trump is inaugurated as the 47th president of the United States – although only the first who is a convicted felon and adjudicated rapist – you might think that he has a lot of important things on his mind. Well, you might think that if you had never heard of Trump or witnessed the clown show buffoonery that is emblematic of his public persona.

The past week has featured some historically profound events in the lead up to Trump’s reoccupation of the White House. They include his aggression toward American allies (Greenland, Canada, Mexico) that he is threatening to invade and/or annex, the preparations for the confirmation hearings of his extraordinarily unqualified Cabinet nominees, and the legal quagmires surrounding his treasonous behavior surrounding the last presidential inauguration in 2021.

Despite these pressing issues, what is apparently keeping Trump up at night are the jokes told by late night comedy hosts, such as Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, and Seth Meyers. This has always been a major complaint of Trump’s for as long as he has been a public figure. And his hostility toward the comics is expressed in his typically infantile manner, hurling insults and baseless accusations.

Late Monday night – or actually very early Tuesday morning – Trump was awake and posting diatribes aimed at Seth Meyers for some unspecified mockery that clearly gnawed at Trump’s massive yet fragile ego. At 1:24 AM, Trump posted on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, how outraged he was at being the butt of Meyers’ jokes…

“How bad is Seth Meyers on NBC, a ‘network’ run by a truly bad group of people – Remember, they also run MSDNC. I got stuck watching Marble Mouth Meyers the other night, the first time in months, and every time I watch this moron I feel an obligation to say how dumb and untalented he is, merely a slot filler for the Scum that runs Comcast. These guys should be paying a lot of money for the right to give these ‘in kind’ contributions to the Radical Left Democrat Party. These are not shows or entertainment, they are simply political hits, 100% of the time, to me and the Republican Party. Comcast should pay a BIG price for this!”

Notice that Trump never reveals specifically what he is upset about. But his anger encompasses the corporate parent of NBC, Comcast, that is owned and run by notoriously conservative media moguls. Or in Trump’s words, “Scum.”

Trump says that he “got stuck watching” Meyers, as if it were a pit of quicksand he stumbled into, and was unable to escape. So he hate-watched the whole thing with a sneer, just waiting until he was freed and able to release his anger online. He was involuntarily glued to this “dumb and untalented” “moron” for the duration. And he ended up threatening that Comcast “should pay a BIG price for this!”

Of course, Trump can’t possibly see the irony in his threats over allegations that Meyers comedy constitutes “‘in kind’ contributions to the Radical Left Democrat Party.” He has no problem with what Fox News airs – not as comedy, but as allegedly serious news – or recognizes that that is an in-kind contribution to Republicans broadly, and himself in particular.

So what is Trump so riled up about in the wee hours of the morning? His post appeared just minutes prior to Meyers’ program ending. So it was clear in his senile memory. Meyers delivered one of his regular “Closer Look” segments that delves into current events. And this one began with a well deserved swipe at Trump…

“We know very little about what Trump’s second term will be like given that he has no fixed principles, or core beliefs, or coherent ideas, or constructive solutions, or plans, or proposals, or policies, or values, or thoughts of any kind. He watches TV and then he scream-posts about what he just saw on TV. He’s basically an intellectual Roomba. He goes in one direction until he bumps into something and then he just goes off into another direction.

Meyers also addressed the ideological civil war in MAGA Land. Particularly between Steve Bannon and Elon Musk, who are at each others throats. Bannon has threatened Musk saying that…

“I will have Elon Musk run out of here by Inauguration Day. He will not have a blue pass to the White House, He will not have full access to the White House. He will be like any other person. He is a truly evil guy, a very bad guy. I made it my personal thing to take this guy down.”

OUCH! I guess we’ll know how this Mothra vs. Godzilla smackdown concludes by next week. The conflict between these MAGA monsters centers around H-1B visas that Musk relies on, and that Bannon castigates as invitations to foreigners to take jobs from Americans. And after pointing out the debate between Trump’s henchmen, Meyers played a video compilation of Trump taking every side on the same issue. Hence the Roomba reference.

It remains a mystery how Trump’s cult followers can regard him as a strongman when he is so easily flustered by a funnyman. But that is nothing new. Trump has always been a whiner who complains that he’s a victim, despite his life of wealth and privilege. And we can expect more of that when he returns to the White House for however long his term will last.
