\"Donald<\/p>\n

Trump is observing this Independence Day by throwing another one of his infantile distemper tantrums. This one comes in a burst of petulant rage that has surely been aggravated by the accumulating evidence of his criminality being presented by the House Select Committee investigating the January 6th insurrection that he incited.<\/p>\n

The multi-post tirade that Trump hammered out on his Twitter clone website, TRUTH Social (that is both failing financially<\/a><\/strong> and flailing legally<\/a><\/strong>), was rife with his tediously repetitious whining and insults stemming from his delusions of victimhood. If nothing else, Trump has affirmed his place in history as America’s biggest crybaby.<\/p>\n

The rants<\/a><\/strong> that Trump posted cover a narrow range of topics mainly devoted to his “Big Lie”<\/em> that the 2020 presidential election was ‘rigged”<\/em> and “stolen”<\/em> from him. Never mind that after 20 months, and sixty court challenges, he has failed to produce a shred of evidence. What follows are some of his key points, with reality-based annotations:<\/p>\n

Trump began by assailing the Republican vice-chair of the Committee as “despicable human being Liz Cheney.”<\/em><\/strong> As usual, he is incapable of factually rebutting anything that she has said, so he resorts to childish name-calling.<\/p>\n

He complained that “HER Fake Unselect Committee may recommend CRIMINAL CHARGES against”<\/em><\/strong> him. If he really believes the Committee is “fake,”<\/em> then why is he so worried about the charges?<\/p>\n

He repeated his ridiculous boast that he “got more votes than any sitting President.”<\/em><\/strong> So what? He also got fewer votes than Joe Biden. You know, the winner. And both candidates got large vote totals because the population – and the electorate – are bigger.<\/p>\n

He’s thinks the Committee should “press charges instead against those that cheated on the Election.”<\/em><\/strong> They would if that weren’t a figment of his perverse imagination. He’s tried dozens of times to assert his cheating claim in court. And he lost every case, even those with Republican judges.<\/p>\n

Returning to his name-calling, Trump lashed out at “the highly partisan Unselect Committee of political Thugs.”<\/em><\/strong> Of course, the Committee has two very conservative Republicans. Although there is a partisan aspect to the witnesses who have testified against him. They are all Republicans.<\/p>\n

Naturally, he had to unleash his objections to the “Impeachment Hoax #1, Impeachment Hoax # 2, the ‘No Collusion’ Mueller Report and, overall, the GREATEST WITCH HUNT IN THE HISTORY OF THE USA.”<\/em><\/strong> True to form, everything that Trump doesn’t like is either a hoax or a witch hunt.<\/p>\n

He wants the Committee to “go after the people who have been rioting.”<\/em><\/strong> That’s exactly what the Department of Justice is doing. In fact, some 800 of them them have already been arrested for storming Congress and trying to overthrow the government, at Trump’s behest.<\/p>\n

Then he adds “No, let\u2019s get ‘Trump’!”<\/em><\/strong> Don’t worry, Donald, they’ll get around to you. Also, why do you put your own name in quotes, as if it’s a fictional reference?<\/p>\n

Finally, Trump says that “none of these terrible events would have happened if I were President!!!”<\/em><\/strong> First of all, it’s good to see him admit that he is not president. But it’s preposterous for him to claim that the events he’s griping about, most of which he is responsible for, wouldn’t have happened were he still occupying the White House. And he was responsible for many other horrendous events when he was there as well.<\/p>\n

And that was Trump’s 4th of July message to America. That was what his glassy-eyed cult disciples regard as a patriotic address. But then what else would you expect from the guy who refused to visit a war memorial for American soldiers because he considers them to be “losers”<\/em> and “suckers”<\/em>?<\/p>\n
