Newt Gingrich Accidentally Gives Biden A Devastating Insult He Can Use Against Trump

When he meets convicted felon/2024 GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump in Thursday’s debate, President Joe Biden could lower the rhetorical boom on the disgraced former president with one insult, according to ex-Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich.

Speaking with NBC News for a piece on the upcoming debate, Gingrich noted that Biden can easily drown out Trump’s claims that he’s too old for a second term by bringing up an episode from the last days of the Trump administration.

“If I were Biden, I would stay away from the age issue and just say, ‘Look, I was wise enough not to try to overthrow the U.S. government,’” he said. “Go through a list of five things in a row and say, ‘I would rather have my age with wisdom than your total lack of seriousness.’”

Former Republican Vice President Dan Quayle also had advice for Biden.

“If I was advising him [Biden], I’d try to make fun of Trump. Try to ridicule him. That will get him mad.”

And Democratic strategist James Carville said he thinks Biden should be in attack mode and go for Trump’s throat.

““At some point, you have to walk into the room and say, ‘We’re going to kick his f—–g ass. We’re going to clock this motherf—-r, you understand?”

If indeed Biden does bring up the January 6, 2021, Capitol insurrection, it will harm Trump in another way: By getting Donald on a tangent about how he won the 2020 election and had every right to contest the results. But polling shows that voters hate when Trump and his surrogates attempt to relitigate history, especially since Biden won in an electoral landslide in multiple battleground states.

The debate begins Thursday at 9 p.m. on CNN.

Donald Trump Jr. Social Media WTF?!

Don Jr. Mocked For ‘NO FEAR!’ Social Media Post Of Him Holding A Rattlesnake

A photo of Donald Trump Jr. holding what appears to be a dead rattlesnake that was posted by the disgraced ex-president’s son on social media has led to massive online humiliation for him.

The photo was posted on Instagram by Don Jr. along with this message:

“Solid day on the river and off the river with my buddy @flyfishrich. We found super cool Timber Rattlesnake and moved it off the train tracks and back into the woods with his buddies.”

Junior’s snake photo was also shared by his father on Truth Social, along with a message of support.

But as many people noted, the snake looks dead, and even if was still alive, picking up a venomous reptile so casually is just plain stupid. Then again, that’s always been Don Jr. and his old man’s calling card: Ignorance.

Former RNC Official: Here’s How You Can Tell Trump Is Terrified Of Debating Biden

With the first 2024 presidential debate how just a little more than 48 hours away, you may be wondering what’s going through the mind of convicted felon Donald Trump as he prepares to face President Joe Biden in what could wind up being a major turning point in the race for the White House.

Former Republican National Committee spokesperson Tim Miller believes Trump is terrified of what will happen when he faces Biden, and he says there are two “signs” of what Trump is feeling as the debate approaches.

“I do think that what we can see publicly is that Donald Trump is concerned about how this debate is being framed up as you lead into the debate,” Miller remarked during an appearance on MSNBC Monday.

“That is why he’s doing all the weird stuff about Joe Biden being on drugs,” he added.

Miller also noted that Trump’s continued insistence over the weekend that he had never called American service members who gave their lives for the nation “suckers” and “losers.”

“To me, that also shows he’s worried about the debate,” Miller explained. “He’s thinking about what Joe Biden’s attacks might be on him, and he’s trying to take the air out of the balloon ahead of time.”

Miller added, “I think there’s a lot of evidence that Trump is concerned about the debate,” said Miller. “How that manifests in his weird mind and whether he’s prepping or not, I’m not sure, but I think we can see plainly that he’s concerned.”

Steve Bannon Hilariously Trolled By Legal Experts Discussing Hygiene Items He Can Buy In Prison

Former Trump administration adviser Steve Bannon will be heading to prison on July 1 where he will serve a four-month sentence after being found guilty of contempt of Congress in 2022.

Legal analyst Allison Gill and former FBI agent Peter Strzok discussed Bannon’s plight on their “Cleanup on Aisle 45” podcast, and they had fun trolling him as they took a look at items Bannon will have access to via the prison commissary.

“This is my favorite part on ‘Cleanup on Aisle 45,'” Strzok remarked. “When we get to go to a new federal correctional institution that one of the people surrounding [Donald] Trump has been incarcerated at and do a select-reading of the products available. In this case, Danbury FCI, which is where Steve Bannon is headed.”

Strzok said he was very surprised there’s such a “broad and exhaustive list of hair and skin care products” available to inmates. And he added, “But he hasn’t used them up until this point in his life. Why start now? Why start in jail?”

Gill wondered if Bannon might “find Jesus” while incarcerated the way many do.

“Some people start weightlifting in prison,” Gill noted. “Some people learn basketball. Maybe he’ll start hygiene!”

In response, Strzok speculated Bannon might try some skin peels while he’s in lockup.

“Get a little retinol. Wash that hair. Get a comb.”

“Just hygiene, in general,” Gill speculated. “Maybe just go down to two shirts.”

“A brush/comb combo for the first time in his life,” Strzok said.

If nothing else, maybe prison officials will insist that Bannon take a shower. From the looks of him, he hasn’t had one of those since Trump left office in 2021.

Here’s more on Bannon being sent to prison:

WATCH Lawrence O’Donnell BURN DOWN Josh Hawley For His Disgusting Lie About Joe Biden

MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell verbally excoriated Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) for willfully sharing a blatant lie about President Joe Biden online, and a video of his remarks is going viral this morning.

On his show Tuesday evening, according to HuffPost, O’Donnell referenced a debunked claim that Biden had insisted that he be allowed to sit during next week’s debate with convicted felon Donald Trump.

Here’s what Hawley posted on Twitter:

CNN immediately pushed back, calling Hawley’s tweet false, Forbes noted.

The network “rejected the claim, telling Forbes ‘it’s not accurate’ and that both Biden and Trump agreed to CNN’s proposed format when they accepted the network’s invitation to debate.”

All of this led O’Donnell to give Hawley a brutal history lesson.

“I can explain it in three words: Franklin Delano Roosevelt.”

“And in every day of his 13 years as president, Franklin Roosevelt was in a wheelchair,” O’Donnell said. “The same wheelchair he was in in his two terms as governor of New York.”

Roosevelt was struck by polio at age 39 and spent the remainder of his life in a wheelchair.

“So, no, standing for 90 minutes is not a presidential job requirement,” O’Donnell continued, adding, “Adolf Hitler was a younger, healthier man than Franklin Roosevelt, but from his wheelchair President Franklin Delano Roosevelt forced Adolf Hitler in Berlin to commit suicide in his bunker as the allies, commanded by Gen. Dwight Eisenhower, were closing in on the German capital city.”

And then the MSNBC host went right at Hawley.

“Hitler could stand for 90 minutes. He did it all the time. 90 minutes was a short speech for Adolf Hitler. Josh Hawley would have loved Adolf Hitler if standing for 90 minutes and ranting incoherently is something Josh Hawley truly admires as presidential.”

While he was at it, O’Donnell also pointed to a darling of the right-wing GOPers: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R), who is in a wheelchair after a horrible accident in 1984 that nearly killed him.

“But wise-guy Josh Hawley wants to do his punk joke about standing for 90 minutes so that he can impress the world’s worst insult comedian, Donald Trump. Sen. Hawley is one of the unindicted participants in Donald Trump’s attempt to overturn the 2020 presidential election. Sen. Hawley was the first member of the Senate to agree to join Republican House members in their plan to challenge the electoral votes won by Joe Biden.”

Josh Hawley should be prosecuted for his role in trying to overturn the last presidential election. He’s a disgusting demagogue and a coward. Here’s hoping the voters of Missouri will kick him to the curb when he runs for reelection.
