As usual, they were entirely self-congratulatory tributes to whatever pitiful achievement he thought he had accomplished in the recent past. But apparently, even Trump has had trouble identifying any good deeds for which he could lavish praise on himself. That&#8217;s reflected by his <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=46003\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">sharply reduced Twitter output<\/a><\/strong> of late.<\/p>\n<p>Trump&#8217;s reliance, therefore, has been on retweets, sometimes of fringe characters with dubious credentials. It&#8217;s a risky business that Trump himself <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/administration\/508947-trump-says-he-often-regrets-his-tweets-and-retweets\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">acknowledged<\/a><\/strong> in an interview Friday saying that <em>&#8220;It\u2019s the retweets that get you in trouble.&#8221;<\/em> Of course, his his own tweets are just as troubling as those he swipes from others. But despite that fragile and temporary awareness of reality, Trump went ahead and retweeted this:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"qst\" dir=\"ltr\">Wow! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/vw0uZPuHXZ\">https:\/\/t.co\/vw0uZPuHXZ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1286985175075827712?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 25, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The video that Trump was <em>&#8220;Wow&#8221;ed<\/em> by was posted by Antoine Tucker (aka Tony Montaga), a former gang member who now claims to be a Christian Republican. He is also a candidate for New York&#8217;s 14th district Congressional seat currently held by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. However, his candidacy could be considered a long shot since, as a write-in candidate, he isn&#8217;t even on the ballot.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, Tucker is proud supporter of the QAnon Conspiracy Crackpot Crusade. <em>&#8220;Yes I am a Q Supporter,&#8221;<\/em> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/montaga\/status\/1278482197498834949\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">he tweeted<\/a><\/strong>. <em>&#8220;And as your Congressman I\u2019ll make sure The Truth will never have to be Questioned in DC again.&#8221;<\/em> Trump has been <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2020\/07\/12\/trump-tweeting-qanon-followers-357238\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">promoting QAnon freaks<\/a><\/strong> for quite a while now. And as if that weren&#8217;t enough, the video is jam-packed with the sort of profanities that a professed Christian would sanctimoniously condemn. For instance&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The Democrats don\u2019t give a f*ck. They don\u2019t give a f*ck about helping Americans. They don\u2019t give a f*ck about what race you are. They don\u2019t care about what LBGT whatever community you belong to. They care about power. All of this sh*t is about power. All of the media hysteria is about power. Control and power.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Praise Jesus! What a testimony to the holy word of Gawd! And what a dignified oratory for a U.S. president to honor.<\/p>\n<p>Tucker&#8217;s utterly substanceless rant eventually got around to the fringes of a subject. He was apparently steamed at Democrats for not passing a one trillion dollar coronavirus relief bill. He was so steamed that he blamed Democrats for the deaths of quarantined Americans, while absolving Trump of any responsibility for more than 143,000 deaths due to his negligence and incompetence in mishandling the pandemic response:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Every day that an American dies, suffers, or finds themselves hungry, you thank the damn Democrats for it because that\u2019s what the f*ck they\u2019ve been doing. F*cking up public trust. f*cking up the economy. And blaming this sh*t on Trump. Like it\u2019s his fault when it\u2019s f*ckin\u2019 them. Be aware, man.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>At this point it needs to be noted that this video that Trump posted today was originally posted by Tucker on March 25, four months ago. Two days later <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/talkingpointsmemo.com\/news\/house-passes-coronavirus-stimulus-bill\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Congress passed a $2.2 trillion relief bill<\/a><\/strong>, twice the amount that Tucker was triggered by. Democrats wanted $3 trillion, but Senate Republicans forced them to compromise for the lower amount. there is a similar debate in Congress now with Democrats proposing significant relief that Republicans are, once again, opposing. So you might think that Tucker would now be angry with the GOP and blame them for Americans dying every day. Be aware, man.<\/p>\n<p>You have to wonder what Trump thought was so amazing about this three month old video, other than that it viciously and unjustly attacked Democrats. But then again, what more would Trump ever want from such a screed, since that&#8217;s how he spends the vast majority of his own time. His GOP confederates have even proposed a resolution in congress to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=46022\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">ban the Democratic Party<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>So while he is promoting the profanity-laced rants of conspiracy kooks and inciting riots by sending stormtroopers into cities with Democratic mayors, Trump is ignoring the real problems that face real citizens. He has no coherent agenda, no campaign strategy, no plan for handling a surging pandemic or an economy in recession. He is just a ratty bundle of rattled nerves radiating hatred toward his perceived enemies. Which these days, in his paranoid stupor, is nearly everyone.<\/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>The things that impress Donald Trump are frequently things that most people would find banal at best, nauseating at worst.
