This time his tantrum was triggered by the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/supreme-court\/supreme-court-rules-trump-cannot-end-daca-big-win-dreamer-n1115116\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Supreme Court ruling<\/a><\/strong> that his attempt to terminate the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) was <em>&#8220;arbitrary and capricious,&#8221;<\/em> and therefore unconstitutional. He unleashed a stream of tweets complaining about the decision without offering any legal basis for his position. However he did tweet this very revealing message:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Do you get the impression that the Supreme Court doesn\u2019t like me?<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1273634152433188865?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 18, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Well, do you? More likely you get the impression that Trump internalizes everything as an attack on him personally. It&#8217;s the sort of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=43090\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">obsessive whining that he has actually bragged about<\/a><\/strong> and has become emblematic of his irreparably fractured and intensely flawed personality disorder. He has also explicitly complained in the past that <em>&#8220;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=44514\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">All I see is hatred of me<\/a><\/strong>.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>One of the most consistent features of Trump&#8217;s character (or lack thereof), is how predictably and viciously he will turn against anyone who isn&#8217;t unflinchingly loyal and slavishly adoring. That has been observed in his broken relationships with former staffers (Kelly, Mattis, McMasters, Tillerson, Sessions, etc). It has also been seen in his <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?tag=trump-attacks-fox-news\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">love\/hate relationship with Fox News<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Most recently Trump has turned against his former National Security Advisor, John Bolton. In a series of Thursday morning tweets, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realdonaldtrump\/status\/1273603410340843520\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Trump ranted<\/a><\/strong> that Bolton&#8217;s book is <em>&#8220;a compilation of lies and made up stories, all intended to make me look bad.&#8221;<\/em> Notice that Trump is again consumed with how things make him look. But his assertion that the book is <em>&#8220;pure fiction&#8221;<\/em> destroys his case that it contains classified material.<\/p>\n<p>Trump also elevated his hostility toward the Supreme Court decisions into a bizarre screed about the Second Amendment <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realdonaldtrump\/status\/1273633632742191106\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">tweeting that<\/a><\/strong> the decisions <em>&#8220;are shotgun blasts into the face of people,&#8221;<\/em> and threatened that <em>&#8220;we will lose our 2nd. Amendment &#038; everything else.&#8221;<\/em> This, of course, is simply a wild swing at corralling his most rabid base-dwellers with nothing but blatant fear mongering. Which is likely to work on the few remaining dimwitted Deplorables who worship him as their Messiah. However, the imagery of faces bloodied by shotgun blasts as an argument against the Court&#8217;s rulings is not likely to appeal to most Americans.<\/p>\n<p>The Supreme Court has surprised many people with its decisions on DACA, sanctuary cities, LGBTQ+ rights, and the census. But the Court remains a conservative body with a 5 to 4 right-wing majority. Trump should be optimistic that most of their decisions will fall into the conservative camp on party line votes. But because he isn&#8217;t getting 100% submissiveness from the judicial branch, he is bellowing frantically about the loss of <em>&#8220;everything&#8221;<\/em> and begging his cult to support him at the ballot box in November.<\/p>\n<p>The only problem with that, from Trump&#8217;s perspective, is that everything he is doing and saying is driving voters farther away from his candidacy, as well as those of other Republicans running for the House, Senate, and state and local offices. Right now Donald Trump is the best campaign ad that Democrats have ever had, even if it is painful to watch and live through.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><strong>How Fox News Deceives and Controls Their Flock:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00QSSMOES\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B00QSSMOES&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;tag=newscorpsecom-20&#038;linkId=TLI6JC2OYE22MUTS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fox Nation vs. Reality: The Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><br \/>\nAvailable now at Amazon.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With each new day there is new evidence that Donald Trump is descending into an abyss of paranoia and mental infirmity.
