The examples of Trump’s authoritarian aspirations are plentiful and troubling. They include his efforts to assume dictatorial control of government; his determination to ignore the roles of Congress and the courts; his waging of wars without lawful authority; his embrace of foreign tyrants and alienation of allies; and his attacks on the free press.<\/p>\n
SEE THIS: Trump Says the Media are \u2018Sick, Treasonous, Demented\u2019 \u2018SLEAZEBAGS\u2019 \u2013 Because They Cover Him?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Among Trump’s most bizarre behaviors is his egomaniacal fixation of naming everything after himself, and other forms of self-exaltation. He’s building monuments to himself in the form of ballrooms and triumphal arches. He’s tried to attach his name to the Kennedy Center and the Institute for Peace. He’s hung gigantic banners with his scowling mug on the office buildings that house departments of Justice and Labor.<\/p>\n Now Trump is obsessing over a new tribute to his conceit. As reported by MS NOW, “Trump aides explore attaching president\u2019s name to Ford\u2019s Theatre<\/a><\/em><\/strong>.”<\/p>\n “As President Donald Trump fights to rename the Kennedy Center after himself, administration officials are circulating a list of government sites that could have his name affixed to them in some way, according to people familiar with the effort.<\/p>\n “One landmark that has emerged in the discussions among administration officials has raised eyebrows: Ford\u2019s Theatre, the playhouse where Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in 1865…The prospect sparked a flurry of discussion over the past week among people responsible for the historic site.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n This shouldn’t surprise anyone who has been paying attention to Trump’s unbridled vanity and messianic swagger. MS NOW cites several sources from within Trump’s inner circle who corroborate this desire. And equally unsurprising is that Trump is calling it “fake news.”<\/em><\/p>\n However, he is going to extremes to deny it. In just a matter of hours he has posted three grossly paranoid comments on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social<\/a><\/strong>, claiming that “the Fake News Media and the Dumocrats”<\/em> are conspiring against him. He began by whining that<\/a><\/strong>…<\/p>\n “The story that the White House, or me, want to affix my name to Ford\u2019s Theatre, in Washington, D.C., where Abraham Lincoln was assassinated, is a ridiculous lie. It is FAKE NEWS! Who would possibly want a name on such a tragic place? The Dumocrats suffer from serious Trump Derangement Syndrome. They are Degenerates and Losers who make up lie after lie, and this Ford\u2019s Theatre Hoax is just another one of their never-ending, malicious falsehoods to try to discredit and demean.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Trump is clearly upset that some truth leaked out of his inner sanctum of crazy. But his denial isn’t very well thought out. He says “Who would possibly want a name on such a tragic place?”<\/em> So Trump says that he wouldn’t want his name on something that memorializes an assassinated president? That’s a peculiar complaint coming from someone who has been clamoring to add his name to the Kennedy Center that memorializes an assassinated president.<\/p>\n
