Trump Insults Rep. Jasmine Crockett as ‘Low IQ’ in Yet Another Racist Attack on Black Women

The flamingly racist rhetoric that Donald Trump uses on a regular basis ought to have resulted in his banishment from civil society decades ago. But there seems to be no end to his capacity for hatred, nor for his cult followers capacity to accept it.

Donald Trump, MAGA

One of the most frequent expressions of Trump’s bigotry is his attack on the intelligence of his political foes, particularly if they are Black, and even more particularly if they are women. Although, Trump has plenty of support for his hate speech considering that during his first term his polling among republicans actually improved when he engaged in it.

Some things never change. And that’s certainly true with regard to doddering old hate mongers like Trump. On this weekend’s episode of Meet the Press with Kristen Welker of NBC News, Trump affirmed his place in the hearts of Klan members everywhere. In a response to a question about who he thought would be his successor, he began by saying that “It’s far too early to say that.” But unable to hold back his prejudice, he continued…

“You look at Marco. You look at JD Vance, who’s fantastic. You look at — I could name 10, 15, 20 people right now just sitting here. No, I think we have a tremendous party. And you know what I can’t name? I can’t name one Democrat. I mean, I look at the Democrats, they have a new person named Crockett. I watched her speak the other day and she’s definitely a low IQ Person. And they said she’s the future of the party. I said you have to be kidding. I don’t know what they’re gonna do.”

So the only Democrat that Trump could think of that might run for president in 2028 was Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas. Apparently he has never heard of JB Pritzker, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Gavin Newsom, Wes Moore, Andy Beshear, Gretchen Whitmer, Josh Shapiro, Pete Buttigieg, and of course, Kamala Harris. And that’s an abridged list.

However, in Trump’s mashed potatoes mind there is only Rep. Crockett, who he says “is definitely a low IQ Person.” Never mind that, in addition to being an elected member of Congress, she is a lawyer and a graduate of Rhodes College and the University of Houston Law School.

Trump’s insult was not based on any observation of Rep. Crockett’s intellect. It was just another example of how he denigrates Black women as stupid based purely on their race and gender. He has used the “low IQ” epithet many times before on other notable Black women, including Vice-President Kamala, Harris and Rep. Maxine Waters. Although to be fair, he has also used it on Black men (e.g. Don Lemon, LeBron James), and even white women (Mika Brzezinski).

Trump, of course, has never seen any documentation of the IQ of any of his insult targets. He is simply projecting his own mental deficiencies on his enemies. He is unarguably the dumbest occupant of the White House in American history. He’s the one who prescribed bleach injections to cure COVID. And renaming the Gulf of Mexico. Just this weekend he was asked about “due process” for immigrants, and his obligation as president to uphold the Constitution. To both questions he replied “I don’t know. I’m not a lawyer.”

That’s an interesting response, because Rep. Crockett is, in fact, a lawyer. But you don’t need to be a lawyer to know that every president takes an oath to “defend the Constitution” when being inaugurated. Not that Trump cares about honoring oaths. Just ask Marla, Ivana, and Melania Trump.

Rep. Crockett had a reply of her own to Trump’s insult that brilliantly exposed Trump as being “terrified of smart, bold Black women telling the truth.”

Trump’s attack on Rep. Crockett is typical of Trump. He often denigrates the intelligence and/or honesty Black women in the media. Among those he has gone after in the past are April Ryan, Yamiche Alcindor, and Abby Phillip. After taking a question from Phillip, Trump whined “What a stupid question. But I watch you a lot. You ask a lot of stupid questions.” And of course, he was unable to provide an answer. Not even a stupid one.

The Trump Regime Just Purged Nearly 400 Books From the US Naval Academy Because of…DEI?

The determination of Donald Trump and his white-wing MAGA movement to erase any and all evidence of America’s rich medley of humanity and culture has been a key component of its mission from its inception. To describe it as merely racist would be far too inadequate to accurately convey its noxious intent.

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

Donald Trump, MAGA

In the two months since Trump’s reoccupation of the White House, he and his Klan have sought to undermine democracy, cancel the Constitution, and foment hatred and division among the American people, always casting themselves as the victims.

SEE THIS: Trump and MAGA Rep FREAK OUT that ‘Monsters’ at NPR and PBS ‘Hate Christians and America’

High on their list of purely putrid priorities is their campaign against DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) programs, whether in government or private enterprise. Because the worst thing that the Trump cult can imagine is a country that honors its diverse population, where all are treated equally, and who can be included in the benefits that a free society provides.

Consequently, the Trump regime has been working overtime to eliminate DEI programs from every government agency, while simultaneously bullying private companies into dropping their programs.

Among the preposterous results of this barrage of bigotry was the deletion of a web page about baseball great and veteran, Jackie Robinson, from the Defense Department website. And then there was the scrapping of info about the plane that dropped the bomb on Hiroshima because its name was “Enola Gay.” Many other examples exist of atrocious cancelations of notable Americans simply because their gender, their religion, or the color of their skin offended the Trumpists.

The latest victim of this censorious purge is the library of the United States Naval Academy. According to Navy spokesman Cmdr. Tim Hawkins, “Nearly 400 books were removed from Nimitz Library to comply with directives outlined in Executive Orders issued by the President.” As reported by CBS News

“Books on the Holocaust, histories of feminism, civil rights and racism, and Maya Angelou’s famous autobiography, ‘I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings,’ were among the nearly 400 volumes removed from the U.S. Naval Academy’s library this week after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office ordered the school to get rid of ones that promote diversity, equity and inclusion.” […]

“Other books clearly deal with subjects that have been stridently targeted by the Trump administration, including gender identity, sexuality and transgender issues. A wide array of books on race and gender were targeted, dealing with such topics as African American women poets [and] historical books on racism, the Ku Klux Klan and the treatment of women, gender and race in art and literature.”

There is no justification for this brazenly fascist act of censorship and bigotry. It would be unthinkable for any business or government agency act this way. But it is particularly galling when an honorable institution like the U.S. Naval Academy is being forced to engage in such toxic, unconstitutional misbehavior.

Sadly, this is what it has come to in Trump’s (per)version of America. They simply have zero tolerance for anyone who doesn’t look and act like them. So he orders his utterly unqualified secretary of defense, Pete Hegseth, to cleanse the Academy’s library of materials that they find offensive.

Furthermore, there is a repugnant irony in that Hegseth himself is a product of the rankest form of bias in the hiring of blind Trump loyalists with no experience whatsoever for the jobs they’ve been asked to do. What ever happened to merit-based recruiting?

Apparently the Trump regime believes that America’s soldiers are too weak to handle an honest and complete accounting of American history. So they have to sanitize it of any references to heroes who don’t fit their pale-faced, Jesus-fearing, far-right GOP model of supremacy. And that’s supposed to make America great?

Trump Accuses the FBI of ‘Corruption’ for Closing the DEI Office that He Promised to Eliminate

Psychological academics are going to have a field day researching and analyzing the myriad maladies that have plagued Donald Trump. His malignant narcissism, pathological lying, and delusions of grandeur will be just the appetizer in the bonkers banquet that Trump will serve up for history.

Click here to Tweet this article

Donald Trump, MAGA

Trump is a bundle of raw nerves that are sparking wildly. Nothing triggers him like atrocities that he has previously embraced, or blessings that he previously condemned. He rambles incoherently on subjects ranging from Hannibal Lecter to being devoured by sharks. He is obsessed with authoritarian aspirations inspired by his heroes, Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping. And he is a treasure trove of hyperactive hypocrisies.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Press Conference is the Best Evidence Yet that He is Positively, Irreparably Insane

Trump provided a convenient example of his neuroses Friday morning in a post to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. He was suffering another hissy fit over something that he considered to be an intolerable offense to humanity. So he furiously typed out – or more likely dictated – his dyspeptic diatribe saying that

“We demand that the FBI preserve and retain all records, documents, and information on the now closing DEI Office—Never should have been opened and, if it was, should have closed long ago. Why is it that they’re closing one day before the Inauguration of a new Administration? The reason is, CORRUPTION!”

It must be comforting to the current staff at the FBI that Trump regards them as corrupt. And they were already probably worried about his nominee to lead the Bureau, Kash Patel, who has zero experience managing a large law enforcement agency, and has declared that he would abuse his power to go after an enemies list of Trump critics.

What Trump was referring to in his post was a report that the Office of Diversity within the FBI would be shutting down prior to his inauguration. As reported by Mediaite

“’In recent weeks, the FBI took steps to close the Office of Diversity and Inclusion (ODI), effective by December 2024,’ The FBI said in a statement to Fox News”

Notice that Trump was mistaken, as usual, about the office being shut down “one day before the Inauguration.” The article that he himself cited stated that the closure was announced a month ago. What’s more, Trump’s “demand” to preserve records was a meaningless outburst since all such government documents are routinely retained.

More troubling is Trump’s accusation that the FBI was plotting some sort of nefarious scheme connected to the Bureau’s office tasked with the “corrupt” responsibility of insuring equal opportunity and non-discrimination for all employees and applicants. What an awful objective for any civic enterprise to be undertaking. Trump and his MAGA minions have long opposed DEI (Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion), and have endeavored to eliminate all traces of it.

MORE HERE: Trump Insults America and its Justice Institutions as ‘SCUM’ Just Weeks Before His Inauguration

Nevertheless, it was that mission on the FBI’s part that infuriated Trump. And he wasn’t going to take it lying down. He labeled it “CORRUPTION,” that the Bureau would dare to shut the office down now. Never mind that that is precisely what Trump himself had promised to do during his campaign when he said nearly a year ago that on day one of his administration all “staff, offices, and initiatives” connected to the “un-American policy will be immediately terminated.” Mediaite elaborated saying that…

“Trump has previously signaled that he would seek to ban DEI in both the federal government and the private sector, labelling the programs ‘anti-white racism.’

“‘I think there is a definite anti-white feeling in this country and that can’t be allowed,’ the former president told Time magazine in May.

So to summarize, Trump is upset that the FBI’s equal opportunity office, that he said was anti-white racism, did exactly what he wanted them to do, which was corrupt, and they did it on the eve of his inauguration, that he seems to think was last December, and therefore, they must be ordered to retain documents that always retain anyway.

Okay. Got it! And this is the “stable genius” that the MAGA cult elected and who on Monday will be taking the oath of office that he has previously breached. Buckle up America.

Trump Picks His ‘Apprentice’ Producer, Mark Burnett, for Diplomatic Post – To Buy His Silence?

The administration of Donald Trump is shaping up to be an epically inept roster of political toadies and personal suck-ups who lack any shred of relevant experience for the jobs they have been tasked to perform. The single criteria that Trump appears to require of his nominees is blind obedience to, and adoration of, Dear Leader Trump.

Donald Trump TV Set

In the few weeks since the election, Trump has turned the White House into a garbage heap for blithering incompetents with a flurry of nominations that guarantee failure on an unprecedented level in critical governmental agencies, including the departments of State, Justice, Health, Homeland Security, Intelligence, and more. They are a motley crew of crackpots who bear no resemblance whatsoever to the citizenry they supposedly there to serve.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Nominees Are Largely Fox News Alum, Mar-a-Lago Patrons, and Billionaires

On Saturday Trump posted on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, that he is nominating Mark Burnett to be his Special Envoy to the United Kingdom. Note, that is not the same as the U.S. ambassador to the U.K., for which Trump has chosen billionaire donor Warren Stephens. The “Special Envoy” post is a brand new title made up by Trump for Burnett.

Burnett joins a diplomatic team of losers from Trump’s past who he is rewarding for their loyalty, including failed senatorial candidate, Herschel Walker (Bahamas), his son-in-law’s felon father, Charles Kushner (France), and his son Don Jr’s ex-fiancée, Kimberly Guilfoyle (Greece). His nominees not only portend serious harm for America’s international relations interests, they are an insult to our allies who will host the phony diplomats.

However, Burnett may have some additional “qualifications” that made him just too compelling for Trump to pass up. Burnett was the producer of Trump’s reality TV game show, “The Apprentice.” He may bear more responsibility for burdening the nation (and the world) with Trump than any other single person. That’s because it was Burnett who manufactured the myth that Trump is a successful businessman, when in fact, he has a long record of bankruptcies and other financial fiascoes.

What’s more, there are reports of video outtakes from “The Apprentice” wherein Trump is heard to be using racial epithets and manipulating the outcome of the game to prevent Black contestants from winning. These reports are coming from the show’s participants and insiders, not Trump critics.

Trump surely wouldn’t want any of that to come out. And handing Burnett a plum spot in one of the world’s most desirable locales could be a way to compensate him for covering up Trump’s bigotry. Although there are others engaging in the conspiratorial cover up as well, including Jeff Bezos, whose company now owns the tapes from the show. Bezos, whose space and cloud computing companies rely on government funding, dined with Trump at Mar-a-Lago earlier this week.

There’s nothing suspicious about any of this, is there? And Trump never does anything wrong. So since he is such a huge advocate of transparency, he’ll probably release the Apprentice cast and crew from any non-disclosure agreements they were forced to sign. Right? RIGHT?

DNC Projects the Real Message of Trump’s Anti-American MAGA-Palooza onto Madison Square Garden

As Election Day draws near, candidates generally make more concerted efforts to refine the part of their message that they want voters to focus on. For instance, Kamala Harris is currently talking more about lowering the economic burdens on middle class families, protecting reproductive freedom and access to healthcare, and preserving American democracy.

Trump Praised Hitler

Donald Trump’s campaign is also seeking to remind voters of what he regards as the most important themes to reinforce in the minds of his MAGA minions. And judging by the rally he held at Madison Square Garden on Sunday, that appears to be his affinity for the neo-fascist ideals that have long been present in his raging cult rally rants.

However, Trump is increasing the intensity of his hate-speech for these final days of the campaign and, with the help of his Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, he’s making certain that his devotees don’t miss the point.

SEE THIS: HOLY CR&P! Fox News Defends Trump Wishing that He Had ‘the Kind of Generals that Hitler Had’

What Trump and his campaign strategists may not understand is that the Harris campaign is just as anxious for the voters to see the real Trump as Trump is. Which is why the Democratic Party was outside of Trump’s MSG rally projecting this message onto the arena where he was speaking: “Trump Praised Hitler.”

Indeed, it was recently revealed that Trump told his White House Chief of Staff, Gen. John Kelly, that he needed the “the kind of generals that Hitler had.” Kelly went further to note that Trump himself “certainly falls into the general definition of fascist, for sure.”

During the MSG event, Trump’s surrogates affirmed much of what was already known about Trump’s character, or lack thereof. An especially troubling example was when an alleged comedian dropped a repulsive insult aimed at fellow American citizens saying that “There is literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico.”

The potential for harm by that “joke” was recognized by some members of the Trump team, and they tried meekly to distance themselves from it. But that’s a difficult task since it mirrors Trump’s own rhetoric wherein he said that “America is a garbage can.” The futile attempt to clean up the joke continued the next morning on Fox News…

Fox and Friends co-host Steve Doocy: This morning the mainstream media picked up on the comic’s comments, which were offensive and have been denounced by the campaign and everybody else. What went on with that?”
Trump spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt: It was a comedian who made a joke in poor taste. Obviously it does not reflect the views of president Trump or our campaign. And I think it is sad that the media will pick up on one joke that was made by a comedian rather than the truth that was shared by the phenomenal list of speakers that we had. We had congressmen and women. We hade Sen. JD Vance. […] And the crowd, they didn’t mind. It was a diverse group of people. The joke fell flat. But the crowd was there because they know who president Trump is.

First of all, Doocy’s assertion that the comic’s comments were “denounced” is not exactly accurate. There was only a statement saying that it “did not reflect” the views of Trump or his campaign. That’s a long way from saying, for example, “That sort of hateful bigotry is intolerable and we unreservedly repudiate it.” Also, Doocy’s claim that “everybody” denounced is untrue. In fact, nobody who followed the comedian, including Trump, bothered to condemn his remarks.

Secondly, Trump’s spokeswoman, Leavitt, let the comedian off with a gentle wrist-slap, saying only that the joke was in “poor taste.” Then she complained that the media dared to report this disgustingly racist attempt at humor by an approved guest of the Trump campaign who must have known what he would say if his script was loaded into the TelePrompTer. Yet nobody sought to modify the bit, which included another joke about the comedian carving watermelons with his Black friends for Halloween.

Finally, Leavitt downplayed the whole affair because, as she noted, “the crowd didn’t mind.” So what? Of course they didn’t mind. Trump’s racism is why they love him. And it proves the one thing that Leavitt got right. That “the crowd was there because they know who president Trump is.”

Exactly! And so does the majority of the American people. And if they all get out to vote between now and November 5th, Trump will be the one put in the garbage bin of history. LFG!

Master Racist Trump Attacks America: ‘We’ve Got a Lot of Bad Genes in Our Country Right Now’

Just when you thought he couldn’t possibly get any worse, Donald Trump proves that we have all underestimated his ability to dispense noxious bigotry and hateful rhetoric aimed at the nation he aspires to rule as a dictator on day one.

Click here to Tweet this article

Donald Trump, Bad Genes

Trump’s overt racism has been a hallmark of his public persona for decades. He famously placed an ad in the New York Times calling for the death penalty for five Black men who were found to be innocent. He discriminated against Black applicants at his apartment properties. He began his campaign for president in 2015 by calling immigrants rapists and murderers. He invited notorious White nationalist Nick Fuentes to dine with him at Mar-a-Lago. And more recently…

THERE WAS THIS: Trump Thanks White Nationalist as a ‘Great Journalist’ for His Sexist Attack on Kamala Harris

While Kamala Harris is being interviewed on a variety of television and social media programs, Trump continues to cower behind the sycophantic MAGA media fluffers who he knows will shield him from any challenging questions or humiliating fact checks.

Case in point, on Monday morning Trump did another phone-in chat from his Mar-a-Lago bunker, in his jammies. This time he spoke with right-wing radio hack, Hugh Hewitt. The entire interview was an affirmation of Trump’s ignorance, ego, and deliberate divisiveness. However, he peaked as the discussion turned to immigration, a subject that Trump eagerly assaults with flagrant falsehoods and putrid prejudice.

Trump led into his repugnant remarks with a preface attacking Kamala Harris in terms that have become a tediously routine part of his cult rallies and stump speeches. He raged that…

“She wants to go into government housing. She wants to go into government feeding. She wants to feed people. She wants to feed people governmentally. She wants she wants to go into a Communist Party-type system. When you look at the things that she proposes, they’re so far off. She has no clue.”

OMG! Harris actually wants to feed disadvantaged Americans, including children, who are struggling to overcome the price gouging of the capitalist corporations that Trump favors. What a monster! In Trump’s perverse mind Harris is therefore a {gasp} “Communist.” Why doesn’t she stick to letting her fellow citizens starve, like good MAGA Republicans would do?

Trump went on to repeat a boatload of lies about migrants that he and his crackpot confederates have been telling for several weeks. These are a particular brand of lies intended to malign and dehumanize good people who are desperate to make a better life for themselves. Trump fumed…

“How about allowing people to come to an open border, 13,000 of which were murderers, many of them murdered far more than one person, and they’re now happily living in the United States. You know, now a murderer — I believe this — it’s in their genes. And we got a lot of bad genes in our country right now. You know, now a murderer, I believe this, it’s in their genes. And we’ve got a lot of bad genes in our country right now.”

If Trump is truly concerned about genes, he may want to take a look at his own genetic history. First of all, he is descended from German stock. So is he genetically aligned with Nazis? His father was a KKK member. So does that explain his own racial bigotry? Both the Nazis and the Klan are advocates of violence to achieve their ends. So is that why Trump so often incites violence himself?

The allegation that Trump is making here about immigrants and crime has been thoroughly debunked. His disinformation was drawn from a report that he said reveals shocking statistics. However, as News Corpse reported last month…

Trump, as usual, is lying. As Politico reports, “The majority of these individuals with criminal convictions were already on the non-detained docket and living in the United States before Biden took office.” The “14,000” is actually the total for a period of some 40 years. The number increased by only 5% during Biden’s term. And the increase that occurred during Trump’s term was nearly twice as much.

What’s more, according to Politico’s research, “The numbers also include nonviolent and petty crime — 126,000 are for traffic violations, while 92,000 are for immigration-related crimes (like crossing the border illegally).”

MORE HERE: OUCH! Trump’s Flagrant Lies About 14,000 ‘Criminal’ Migrants Gets a Devastating Fact-Check

Trump’s remarks about genetic predisposition to crime is an old trope employed by racist regimes. As is his embrace of violence. Trump not only incited a deadly insurrection on January 6th, 2021, he has frequently employed the rhetoric of violence to intimidate and fear monger. And this isn’t just remnants from the past. He did it again this past weekend…

UPDATE: White House Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, was asked about Trump’s vile remarks and gave a moving response…

Trump Thanks White Nationalist as a ‘Great Journalist’ for His Sexist Attack on Kamala Harris

After whining for weeks that Kamala Harris had not subjected herself to a media inquisition since becoming the Democratic presidential nominee, Trump and his MAGA minions are still unsatisfied following her interview with CNN’s Dana Bash. However, what is probably most disappointing for them is that she conducted herself admirably, showing intellect and compassion.

Donald Trump, MAGA

Of course the Trump cult didn’t like it. There was none of the bile and bombast that Trump is famous for. She didn’t spew any inflammatory lies, infantile insults, hostile attacks, or racist rants. And there was not even a mention of sharks, windmill cancer, or Hannibal Lecter. It’s amazing that, without that psychotic rhetoric, she is still managing to beat Trump in most of the recent polls.

SEE THIS: Putting Trump’s Polling Delusions in Perspective – It’s Even Worse than He Thinks

Consequently, Trump is resorting to reliance on some of his fringiest followers to float his political fortunes. He took to his failing Truth Social scam site to offer some praise to White nationalist rage-caster, Charlie Kirk, with a one line, unadorned, and mysterious post saying only “Thank you to great journalist, Charlie Kirk!’

It didn’t take long to discover why Trump was so pleased with Kirk’s alleged journalistic skills. Kirk had just posted a video of himself disparaging Harris in the most vile and misogynistic terms. And Trump’s accolades came less than twenty minutes later. Kirk was reacting to Harris’ interview in a predictably malicious manner. What follows are some choice excerpts from his overheated harangue (video below)

  • “Kamala Harris says her values haven’t changed. So your Marxist values haven’t changed?”
    Kirk obediently adopts Trump’s lingo that has no basis in reality.
  • “Kamala Harris screams as somebody who has unaddressed, lingering father issues. By the way, you know her father does not like her and wasn’t even at the convention?”
    Harris’ parents divorced when she was seven and she was raised by her mother. Kirk fails to mention that Trump’s own wife is almost never with him (at rallies, or court, or dinners at Mar-a-Lago). Melania made a token appearance at the RNC at the very end, and she never addressed the convention or spoke to the press.
  • “She always needs to have a man around.”
    So Does Trump. But actually, Harris does almost all of her public appearances solo.
  • “Kamala Harris was attacked by her Jamaican father over her pot smoking joke.”
    So what? It’s not like Jamaicans aren’t known for their ganja habits. And this may be one of the reasons she didn’t invite him to the DNC.
  • “Kamala Harris is not confident in her own standing. She’s not confident in her own position because she didn’t earn it.”
    Where Kirk sees any lack of confidence is a mystery. And if being an elected District Attorney, Attorney General, and U.S. Senator, from the biggest state in the union, and the first woman Vice-President isn’t “earning it,” WTF is?
  • “She’s a radical, not confident in her beliefs, insecure, and a nervous wreck.”
    This sounds like a much better description of Donald Trump. Especially after finding out that he’s running against Kamala Harris.

For the record. Kirk has a long and well documented history as a right-wing extremist and White nationalist. Which makes him just the sort of cretin who would appeal to Trump. He holds extraordinarily repulsive views including the racist “White Replacement Theory” that posits that Democrats are trying to import foreigners in order to shift the balance of the electorate. What’s more…

That’s the guy that Trump just thanked for being a “great journalist.” Meanwhile, Trump says that actual journalists are “the enemy of the people,” and calls for their arrest and incarceration. And Trump is the guy that Republicans still support as their candidate for president. That should tell you something about what remains of the once “Grand Old Party,” and why no one should vote for any Republican.

Trump Issues An Impotent Threat of Mass Incarceration of Imaginary Migrant ‘Election Fraudsters’

The authoritarian compulsions of convicted felon Donald Trump have exhibited themselves in his frequent and public declarations of overt intentions to seek “retribution” against his perceived enemies, including all Democrats, insufficiently worshipful Republicans, independent judges, domestic and foreign diplomats, disloyal business leaders, and, of course, the media that he refers to in Stalinist terms as “the enemy of the people.”

Donald Trump, Immigrant, Child

Trump’s obsession with getting revenge on those he believes have wronged him has been the single most motivating factor in his campaign to reoccupy the White House, with the possible exception of his fear of being sent to prison himself for his multitude of crimes. His response to that fear is to threaten his foes with prosecution, including charges of treason that carry the death penalty.

SEE THIS: The Supreme Court Immunity Case is Even Scarier Knowing Trump Threatened to Execute His Critics

On Tuesday Trump extended his threats to a group of people that he has long detested: Immigrants. On his floundering social media scam, Truth Social, Trump posted a comment in support of a new Republican bill aimed at making it illegal for undocumented immigrants to vote in federal elections. Which is a blatantly transparent political stunt because, of course, that is already illegal. Trump wrote that…

“Republicans must pass the Save Act, or go home and cry yourself to sleep. Non citizen Illegal Migrants are getting the right to vote […] Our whole voting system is under siege.”

To no one’s surprise, Trump is lying. There aren’t any “Non citizen Illegal Migrants [who] are getting the right to vote.” And his baseless assertion that the “whole voting system is under siege,” is utterly delusional. If that were true, why didn’t Trump do anything about it in the four years that he was pretending to be president? Where is his evidence that it is happening now? But despite his complete departure from reality, Trump went on to issue a foreboding threat…

“If I’m elected President, we will pursue Election Fraudsters at levels never seen before, and they will be sent to prison for long periods of time. We already know who you are. DON’T DO IT! ZUCKERBUCKS, be careful!”

So Trump is specifically threatening to arrest and imprison Facebook founder and CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, along with hundreds (thousands?) of others whose names he allegedly already knows, but whom he has declined to report to the authorities. Are you one of them?

This threat is consistent with Trump’s often hyperbolic proclamations that immigrants are running rampant throughout the nation, committing crimes with the approval of the Biden administration. He has promised to deport some 15 million people whose immigration status he can’t even certify. That would undoubtedly lead to untold numbers of American citizens being shipped off to foreign lands that they never knew.

Trump has never explained how his deportation scheme would be carried out. But for the record, it would take some 75,000 flights to transport 15 million people to other countries around the world. That would cost at least $7.5 billion. And that isn’t counting the billions it would take for law enforcement to round them up, or to build and staff the internment camps where they would have to be housed until their status and country of origin were established.

Trump is also advancing the virulently racist “White Replacement Theory” that posits that Democrats are trying to import foreigners in order to shift the balance of the electorate. Never mind that it would take many years for any immigrant, much less an undocumented one, to be granted legal status and eventually citizenship.

Trump is engaging in another impotent threat that is based on solely on his seething hatred and perverse perspective of the world. He couldn’t carry it out even if he were reelected. And reality has shown us that nearly every legitimate case of election fraud in the past several years was the work of Republicans. But Trump has never been one to allow facts to interfere with his fetid fantasies.

Fox News Hack Posts Blatantly Racist Op-Ed Attacking Kamala Harris in Murdoch’s New York Post

The obsession by MAGA media operatives to malign President Biden and sow discord within the Democratic Party has been trodding full bore ever since the Biden/Trump debate ten days ago. And naturally they focus solely on criticism of Biden for being old, while ignoring Donald Trump for being a convicted felon, financial fraudster, aspiring authoritarian, and adjudicated rapist.

Fox News, Kamala Harris

The press seems to have a single-minded mission to drive Biden out of the presidential race because he struggled to express himself effectively at the debate. Never mind that, while Trump didn’t have any problem speaking, he had a huge problem telling the truth. And to the press, being a pathological liar isn’t a disqualifying characteristic for someone seeking to become leader of the free world, a position that Trump has already failed horribly at. So the press clutches desperately to their narrative that it’s Biden who needs to step aside. Ironically, not even Trump thinks that…

SEE THIS: Felonious Trump Begs President Biden to Stay in the Race in a Sarcastic Rant Filled with Lies

Adding to the muck, is the notorious muckraking rag, the New York Post. This Rupert Murdoch propaganda spewer published a story by Fox News correspondent, Charlie Gasparino, with the blatantly racist headline, “America may soon be subjected to the country’s first DEI president: Kamala Harris.” It hardly requires reading the article to get the gist of what it is saying. The right-wingers of America have been furiously trying to redefine the acronym “DEI” (diversity, equity, and inclusion) to mean “incompetent minorities and women trying to steal jobs from White men.” The article opened saying that…

“There is a raging debate in corporate America on the future of DEI, aka Diversity ­Equity and Inclusion, because it is literally destroying businesses that go there. And yet the American public may soon be subjected to DEI writ large in the next president of the United States, if Kamala Harris finds her way to the top of the Democratic ticket.”

To be clear, the article is attacking Harris as undeserving of her position as Vice-President, or any position she might have subsequent to that. They are dismissing the fact that she is the former Attorney General of California and a United States Senator. Apparently they don’t regard those as qualification for high office. But they do appreciate wealthy White men who have bankrupted multiple business and bragged about committing sexual assault.

The article also insults Harris personally as “the most irrepressibly fatuous politician in America” and “manifest ­unlikability.” It then goes on to complain about the fact that she has dared to laugh – or in their words, cackle – in public…

The article doesn’t leave out the author’s deep-seated hatred for President Biden either. He adopts Trump’s infantile nickname of “Sleepy Joe,” and offers some preposterous lies about Biden’s policies. For instance, he says that Biden “literally invites terrorists to enter the country and kill people.” Literally? This author clearly doesn’t know what the word means. But he couldn’t come up with any figurative examples of his ridiculous claim either.

The article’s case against DEI is profoundly ludicrous and steeped in hypocrisy. Someone needs to tell them about the Fox News Corporate Responsibility Report that boasts that the company is “committed to diversity from the very top [and that] An inclusive and diverse workplace is not merely a strategy or business objective—it is fundamentally woven in the fabric of the Company.” It goes on to elaborate more specifically that…

“Our Preventing Harassment, Discrimination and Retaliation Policy protects individuals on the basis of a person’s actual or perceived race, religious creed, color, national origin, ancestry, citizenship, age, physical disability, mental disability, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, family status, caregiver status, sex (including pregnancy status, childbirth, breastfeeding, and related medical conditions), gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, sexual and reproductive health decisions, reproductive health decision-making, hair texture or hairstyles, military or veteran status, political affiliation, arrest or conviction record, union membership, unemployment status, credit history, status as a victim of domestic violence, stalking or sexual offenses, or any other legally protected characteristic.”

So Fox News, to the surprise of no one who has watched it with clear eyes, is hysterically hypocritical. What’s more, they spend much of their airtime vilifying a policy that is “fundamentally woven in the fabric of the Company.” And yet, they still dredge up their inbred prejudices to purposefully ignore and/or misinterpret DEI in order to use it against the first Black woman to serve as Vice-President. But then, would anyone expect anything else from Rupert Murdoch and his Klan Empire?

DELUSIONAL Fox News Host Remembers When ‘Blacks Loved Trump’ and ‘Wanted to Be Trump’

Political campaigns commonly make rosy claims intended to bolster the perceived depths of support the candidate has among various constituent groups. Ordinarily those claims are backed up by at least some kernel of truth. But in the era of the MAGA GOP, all standards of honesty have been discarded as what was once the Republican Party morphs into the Cult of Trump.

Fox News Jesse Watters

Fox News provided an outstanding example of that on Thursday night in a segment of the Jesse Watters program wherein he was “reporting” on Donald Trump’s rally in the Bronx. Throughout the day Fox News covered the rally as if there had been a sighting of the Virgin Mary that drew 100,000 faithful to a park in New York City. Actually, the attendance was more like 2-3,000, and most of them were from out of town, or even out of state. But diverging from the facts never stopped Fox News before.

Like many others on Fox News, Watters sought to portray the Bronx rally as evidence that Trump has significant support in the Black and Latino communities. He didn’t bother to notice that most of the audience was White in a borough that is 85% people of of color.

Watters went on to complain about the frequent observations of Trump’s blatant racism. However, his comments were typically out of step with reality. He whined that…

“It does seem like they’re trying to say Trump’s racist. And they have to go all the way back into the 80s to say he’s racist. I remember in the 80s, Blacks loved Trump. In the 90s they loved him. In the 2000s Blacks wanted to be Trump. Everybody wanted to be Trump, no matter what color you are. That changed when he ran for president.”

First of all, it isn’t the vindication of Trump that Watters thinks it is to notice that examples of his racism date back 40-50 years. That’s more of a validation. But Watters goes even farther afield by claiming to “remember” the 1980s when “Blacks loved Trump.” Watters was born in Philadelphia in 1978. So he wants his viewers to believe that he recalls Trump’s popularity with Blacks in New York from his years as a toddler in another state.

There is, of course, no evidence that Blacks loved Trump in the 80s, or the 90s, or any time since. Particularly New Yorkers who actually do remember Trump taking out a full-page ad in four newspapers calling for the execution of five Black teenagers (the Central Park Five), who were falsely accused of a horrific rape and murder. Thirteen years later DNA evidence exonerated them. The five eventually received a $41 million settlement from the city of New York in 2014. Trump has never retracted his statement or apologized.

Watters continued his deranged distortion of reality by asserting that “Blacks wanted to be Trump. Everybody wanted to be Trump.” Once again, there is no evidence of any such desire on the part of anyone, with the exception of other privileged White grifters who envied Trump’s shameless deceitfulness in pursuit of greed. Most New Yorkers were repulsed by Trump and his pseudo-playboy aspirations and tawdry friendships with the likes of underage sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein.

Fox News needs to keep spreading blatant lies like these about Trump’s feeble support among Black Americans in order to convince their viewers that he is a shoo-in for the presidency in November. They are an insecure bunch of willfully blind followers who will crumble at the notion that Trump isn’t viewed by everyone as a messiah. So designated fluffers like Watters are dispatched to keep the emotional Kool-Aid flowing. It’s sad that there are still suckers – although relatively few – who continue to fall for it.
