    This is an evergreen headline.

    It would be great if sources would give some indication of the topic of whatever rant so we know whether it’s something we’ve read about yet or not.

    > Trump also “re-truthed” a post featuring images of Vice President Harris and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the words: “Funny how blowjobs impacted both of their careers differently.”

    > Trump boosted several posts and comments calling for prominent Democrats to be imprisoned. One such post featured the image of former President Barack Obama with the caption “All roads lead to Obama. Retruth if you want public military tribunals.”
    >
    > Another post on the former president’s feed shows Harris, Hillary Clinton, President Joe Biden, Dr. Anthony Fauci, Bill Gates, and Hunter Biden in orange prison jumpsuits. The image text reads “How to actually ‘fix the system.’”

    He knows he’s losing, and expect him to get even worse in the weeks ahead, [narcissistic collapse is not a pretty sight.](https://psychcentral.com/disorders/narcissistic-personality-disorder/narcissistic-collapse#signs)

  3. >A senior Trump campaign official tells *Rolling Stone* that they are consistently relieved, for the sake of their 2024 campaign, that the former president’s main social-media home is now Truth Social, if only because it limits the public reach and media attention that these kinds of posts receive, as Trump is trying to appeal to moderate and swing voters in the final months of the election.

    Trump campaign strategy: hide the true Trump from the voting public.

    [Trump Promotes Fascism, QAnon in Truth Social Posting Spree  (archive.ph)](https://archive.ph/ffyaW#selection-2041.2-2041.136)

    Trump re-posted.

    “Re-truth” is not a real concept no matter how publications like the Rolling Stone inadvertently acquiesce to b.s. terms contrived by propagandists like Trump and his MAGA cultists.

  5. ***From Rolling Stone’s Nikki McCann Ramirez:***

    Usually, the best indicator of Donald Trump’s mental state at any given time is the tone and frequency of his social media posts. On Wednesday — in the aftermath of a new election-interference indictment from Special Counsel Jack Smith — the former president seemingly spent the morning scrolling through his Truth Social comments and “re-truthing” all manner of conspiratorial, sexist, and fascist content.

    Trump posted dozens of memes and comments from accounts promoting the QAnon conspiracy theory, false claims about the 2020 election, sexist attacks against Kamala Harris, and the use of authoritarian tactics against his political enemies.

    My Taco Bell ad under this post says “some things never change”…. Spot on

    Aside from this being yet more proof that Trump is mentally unstable, my first instinct is this stuff damages him with undecided voters. MAGA loves it, but everyone else is reminded of the non-stop chaos during his term as POTUS.

  8. Sheesh. At least hitler was smart enough to wait until he actually had power before going full-on fascist. 78-year-old trump isn’t even that smart (must be age-related mental decline)

    He has no business being anywhere near the White House. What a disgusting manchild.

    I think the media will doom this country unless we save ourselves. The media pretends like he is a normal Republican candidate and were claiming on radio this morning how people believe he is better when it comes to the economy. Maybe you should start reporting his BS like this on radio too with a warning that Republican president is claiming something and the content is not suitable for kids.

  11. Guy who spent his life **PAYING** to sleep with and marry Porn stars/Call girls thinks any woman in a position of power got it from the guy sleeping with her.

    That man is an abject POS and says these things because it’s all he knows.

    Trump: we can’t put former Presidents on trial!

    Also Trump: let’s put former Presidents on trial@ you know, except me.

    “Good, good. Let the hate flow through you.”

    This does nothing but alienate more voters. Sooner or later he’ll make a major mistake like pissing off Cuban immigrants or football fans.

  14. Trump continues to show how he’s the #1 enemy of all things American. All traitor. Zero good.

    If it was as easy to put people in prison as he thinks it is he’d already be in a cell

  16. I think we need an update to Clear and Present Danger where Jack Ryan averts an autocratic takeover by a corrupt politician and his cabal trying to avoid federal prison.

  17. Pale-Worldliness7007 on

    He will get more and more of the rails as his poll numbers drop. He seriously needs a cognitive test and be institutionalized.

  18. A few months ago, I’d say talking about his social media outbursts would be giving him the attention and justification that he wants. Now that Harris/Walz are highlighting just how weird Trump is, I think outbursts Iike this should be getting more attention. No normal person could see his posts and think he’s a mentally stable person. His cultists will love anything he does, but this will scare off independents

  19. HelpfulTap8256 on

    I suppose his final strategy before complete disconnection from reality is to go farther and farther right to try to stir up the base for some last his of narcissistic validation.

  20. purplebrown_updown on

    Oh god. That is so freaking gross and offensive. I wonder if any of the journalist will call him out on it, and not in an open ended way. It was clearly offensive and sexist. Let’s see.

  21. thathairinyourmouth on

    Why they keep treating him with kid gloves only tells me that media execs don’t want to paint him in the negative light that he so rightfully deserves.

  22. keasy_does_it on

    God damn I can’t wait to get off work and make my daily 15 calls for Harris. Who’s with me?

  23. I love the “We’re beating the Dems like a drum on social media”.

    As we know, when you translate Trumpish to English, that means, “we have no answer to her”. The Harris/Walz social media team is so good, and it’s even better watching the GOP melt down because of it.

  24. LookinAtTheFjord on

    Everyone is so over this asinine horseshit. We need to theoretically burn the GOP to the ground by voting in a D majority in both the House and Senate so they can kill the filibuster and start actually *getting shit done*.

  25. BurroinaBarmah on

    This is why Harris doesn’t want his mic muted, he’s gonna say some real dumb shit live on air…

  26. Broad_Sun8273 on

    Once again, can we please have the content behind the firewall copy-pasted? I’m tired of seeing headlines to articles I can’t read and shouldn’t have to subscribe to just to see them.

  27. Emergency_Property_2 on

    Sadly for Trump this nonsense is not doing anything other than giving Harris ammunition for the impending debate.
