Rachel Maddow Predicts What Trump Will Do Next – And It’s Chilling

Recent remarks from failed former president Donald Trump in which he called those opposed to him “vermin” are part of larger plan by him to destroy the power of words that are being used against him, according to MSNBC host Rachel Maddow, and that suggests some very dark days are ahead for this country.

Speaking with fellow MSNBC host Chris Hayes, Maddow explained:

“The use of the word ‘vermin’ and with the way that he’s calling his enemies ‘fascist’ — he’s started calling you and me and anybody who’s not Team Trump a fascist.”

Much the way he did with the term “fake news,” Maddow continued, Trump wants to take all the sting out of being labeled a fascist, making it irrelevant:

“He has to save the world from the fascist. And he’s using this terminology which is overtly and obviously fascist callback language: ‘Enemy of the People’ yeah okay, but calling the internal enemy ‘vermin’ that needs to be exterminated — he knows what he’s doing.”

If you doubt that Trump is indeed trying to inoculate the public from terms such as “vermin” and “fascist,” consider how his campaign spokesperson, Steven Cheung, reacted when those terms were used by Trump on social media recently.

“Those who try to make that ridiculous assertion are clearly snowflakes grasping for anything because they are suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome,” Chung warned. “And their entire existence will be crushed when President Trump returns to the White House.”

Their entire existence will be crushed. That’s the same sort of language Adolf Hitler used against anyone who dared to oppose him. And it resulted in 11 million people perishing in the Holocaust.

Is that what we want to see happen in this country?

Here’s the video from MSNBC:

Conspiracy Theorists Attack Dolly Parton After She Performs At Dallas Cowboys’ Halftime Show

Country music superstar Dolly Parton performed during halftime of the Thanksgiving Day NFL football game between the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Commanders, and while fans in attendance at the game were delighted by Parton’s mini-concert, conspiracy theorists wasted no time trashing her just because she helped finance creation of the COVID-19 vaccine.

According to Newsweek:

Parton’s set included some of her biggest hits, such as “Jolene” and “9 to 5,” before she treated audiences to a cover of Queen’s classic track “We Are the Champions.”

However, the singer-song-writer’s presence on the stage drew objections from a number of social media users, who criticized Parton for helping to fund the development of a COVID vaccine at the height of the pandemic in 2020.

The star donated $1 million to the Vanderbilt University Medical Center, leading to the creation of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. She has since donated another $1 million to Vanderbilt for pediatric infectious disease research.

That was all it took for snowflake anti-vaxxers to post hateful invectives aimed at Parton on Twitter.

Donald Trump’s Thanksgiving Message Is Among The Most Disgusting Things He’s Ever Posted Online

On Thanksgiving, we’re supposed to take time and reflect on the many things we have to be thankful for: Family, friends, freedom.

But if you’re failed former president Donald Trump, you make Thanksgiving all about yourself and your petty grievances.

Here’s what the disgraced ex-president posted on his failing Truth Social site:

“Happy Thanksgiving to ALL, including the Racist & Incompetent Attorney General of New York State, Letitia “Peekaboo” James, who has let Murder & Violent Crime FLOURISH, & Businesses FLEE; the Radical Left Trump Hating Judge, a “Psycho,” Arthur Engoron, who Criminally Defrauded the State of New York, & ME, by purposely Valuing my Assets at a “tiny” Fraction of what they are really worth in order to convict me of Fraud before even a Trial, or seeing any PROOF, & used his Politically Biased & Corrupt Campaign Finance Violator, Chief Clerk Alison Greenfield, to sit by his side on the “Bench” & tell him what to do; & Crooked Joe Biden, who has WEAPONIZED his Department of Injustice against his Political Opponent, & allowed our Country to go to HELL; & all of the other Radical Left Lunatics, Communists, Fascists, Marxists, Democrats, & RINOS, who are seriously looking to DESTROY OUR COUNTRY.”

Wow! Makes you feel warm all over, doesn’t it?

Since Donnie now posts his Truth Social ramblings on Twitter, other social media users decided to let him know how they felt about his hateful message.

‘America First’ Marjorie Taylor Greene Mocked After People Find Out Where Her New Book Was Published

On Tuesday, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) released what she’s calling a “memoir.” It’s entitled MTG.

Greene proudly announced the publication of the book on her favorite social media website, Twitter, which for some unknown reason the company’s CEO, Elon Musk, seems determined to rebrand as “X,” even though the homepage for the site still comes up as Twitter.com in the address bar.

The Georgia Republican, according to HuffPost, has tried to suggest that MTG will present her side of the many controversies which have surrounded her since she arrived in Congress.

The firebrand Republican has promised to tell her “side of the story” with the book. But the Guardian revealed it contains a false claim from Greene that no Democrats remained in the House chamber to defend it from supporters of then-President Donald Trump during the U.S. Capitol riot of 2021.

Here’s Margie’s Twitter announcement of the book:

The publisher of the book is Winning Team Publishing, which just so happens to have been co-founded by Donald Trump Jr., the oldest son of failed one-term, twice-impeached and multiply-indicted former president Donald Trump.

Also, in a particularly ironic note considering how Greene loves to claim she’s “America First” like the ex-president, the book itself was printed in Canada, which the congresswoman has suggested has become a socialist nation under the leadership of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. If that’s the case, then why print a book there? Were there no American printers available?

Greene’s book promo drew harsh remarks on social media, with some suggesting an alternative use for the pages.

GOP Hoping To Turn Kyle Rittenhouse Into A ‘Political Powerhouse’ For The 2024 Election

Earlier this week, Kyle Rittenhouse began a media blitz to promote his new book, Acquitted, and based on some of the statements he’s making along the way, in addition to how conservatives are once again embracing him, it appears the GOP has big plans for Rittenhouse’s political future.

Democratic strategist Max Burns notes in a piece he wrote for MSNBC that Republicans love the book, but they love the idea of launching Rittenhouse as a rising political star even more.

Rittenhouse’s new memoir isn’t a desperate attempt to remain relevant. It’s more like the opening charge of a well-funded public relations campaign designed to build Rittenhouse’s personal brand into a political powerhouse.

Former GOP congressman Joe Walsh agrees with Burns, remarking that Rittenhouse “has been on a quest to stay as relevant as he can, and there’s no doubt he appeals to a big part of the Republican base.”

“From day one, he’s been totally used by people on the right to raise money and get constituencies fired up. He’s making money putting his face out there for MAGA causes.”

It’s clear that Rittenhouse welcomes such overtures, as he entered the political fray by endorsing several right-wing GOP candidates, all of whom failed to get elected.

He has also been raising money by using his name and acquittal on murder charges to fight a civil lawsuit filed against him by the family of one of the men he gunned down in Kensoha, Wisconsin in 2020.

One of Rittenhouse’s many fundraising appeals garnered more $200,000 from sympathetic backers. In politics, the ability to raise that kind of money doesn’t go unnoticed for long, and Republican strategists were soon urging Rittenhouse to think about his political future.

As for his own political ambitions, the 20-year-old Rittenhouse is too young to run for Congress, but his age wouldn’t keep him from seeking a state office, which some have suggested he should consider, especially in a deeply red state like Texas.

In other words, expect to see Rittenhouse a lot in 2024. He’ll be endorsing candidates, raising money, and trying to vault himself into some position of power from which he can continue to build a future that doesn’t involve him having to do any real work.
