Donald Trump GOP Social Media WTF?!

Trump’s Hateful Memorial Day Message: ‘We Must Stop The Communists, Marxists, And Fascist Pigs!’

As the nation honors those who made the ultimate sacrifice for the United States on this Memorial Day, failed and indicted former president Donald Trump decided he’d defile the memory of those who died in battle by posting an all-caps screed on his Truth Social site in which he railed against “communists, Marxists, and fascist pigs!”

“HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY TO ALL, BUT ESPECIALLY TO THOSE WHO GAVE THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE FOR THE COUNTRY THEY LOVE, AND TO THOSE IN LINE OF A VERY DIFFERENT, BUT EQUALLY DANGEROUS FIRE, STOPPING THE THREATS OF THE TERRORISTS, MISFITS AND LUNATIC THUGS WHO ARE WORKING FEVERISHLY FROM WITHIN TO OVERTURN AND DESTROY OUR ONCE GREAT COUNTRY, WHICH HAS NEVER BEEN IN GREATER PERIL THAN IT IS RIGHT NOW,. WE MUST STOP THE COMMUNISTS, MARXISTS AND FASCIST ‘PIGS’ AT EVERY TURN AND, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

How exactly does that honor the memories of the millions who have died to protect the freedoms we enjoy in this country? And what gives Trump the right to complain about anything when the legal peril he’s facing is his own damn fault?

Just last month, the disgraced ex-president had to surrender to authorities in Manhattan after being indicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records, and video of that event made it clear that he was seething as he faced the consequences of his actions:

Trump may also be indicted soon in Georgia and by the Department of Justice. He’s been criming his entire life, and now that he’s having to pay the piper for those crimes, he’s lashing out because he thinks he’s above the law.

Here’s hoping by this time next year the Donald will be in prison for the rest of his pathetic life.

Lauren Boebert Tweets Out The Ultimate Self-Own Of Herself And The Republican Party

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) is absolutely furious that the Biden administration is launching a program to fight bias, hate, and violence against Jewish people in an effort to combat a rise in antisemitism across the country.

President Joe Biden announced the new plan on Thursday, the Associated Press reports, and it includes over 100 steps the administration will take to confront antisemitism.

Speaking during a videotaped address at the White House, Biden said the first U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism sends a “clear and forceful message” that “in America, evil will not win, hate will not prevail” and “the venom and violence of antisemitism will not be the story of our time.”

Months in the making, the strategy has four basic goals: increasing awareness and understanding of antisemitism, including its threat to America, and broadening appreciation of Jewish American heritage; improving safety and security for Jewish communities; reversing the normalization of antisemitism and countering antisemitic discrimination; and building “cross-community” solidarity and collective action to counter hate.

Even in a deeply divided country like the United States, you’d think just about everyone except the most hardcore bigots would support such an initiative, but Boebert suggested the plan was actually an attempt to target conservatives.

“When they say stuff like this, they mean they want to go after conservatives,” she tweeted. ”Their tactics are straight out of the USSR’s playbook.”

As we often say in the South, A hit dog always hollers.

Or, as one person noted in their response to Boebert, “Every radical MAGA GOP extremist’s accusation is a Confession!!!”

Others also joined the debate, reminding Boebert that she must have one hell of a guilty conscience.

Gavin Newsom Hilariously Mocks Marjorie Taylor Greene By Using Her Bulls**t Against Her

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) got the better of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) during an online debate on the issue of LGBT rights and shut down the congresswoman by using one of her most absurd conspiracy theories against her.

Newsom criticized Target for removing some of its Pride Month merchandise due to a backlash from right-wingers like Greene, expressing his disappointment on Twitter.

“CEO of Target Brian Cornell selling out the LGBTQ+ community to extremists is a real profile in courage. This isn’t just a couple stores in the South. There is a systematic attack on the gay community happening across the country.

“Wake up America. This doesn’t stop here. You’re black? You’re Asian? You’re Jewish? You’re a woman? You’re next.”

Greene countered Newsom’s posting by claiming the “gay community” isn’t under attack and tried to blame Target for displaying “tuck-friendly” clothing aimed at children. That claim has since been debunked by The Associated Press, which noted, “The ‘tuck-friendly’ swimsuits are only offered in adult sizes, according to a spokesperson for the company and Target’s website. Kids’ swimsuits in the collection do not feature this label.”

That’s when Newsom used a verbal nuclear weapon to completely vaporize the Georgia Republican.

The space laser line is a reference to comments Greene made on Facebook in which she suggested the Rothschild family had financed lasers that caused the California wildfires.

Game, set, and match Gavin Newsom.

Biden Trolls DeSantis After Ron’s Twitter Campaign Announcement Crashes And Burns

It was not a good evening for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), who decided to formally announce his candidacy for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination on Twitter, joined by Twitter CEO Elon Musk.

To put it mildly, the social media rollout was riddled with glitches and a completely embarrassment, as HuffPost notes.

Elon Musk, Twitter’s owner and former CEO, had teased the announcement for days, but things quickly went awry as audio feeds cut out and Twitter staff could be heard cutting in to try and fix the situation. At one point, more than 500,000 people seemed to be tuned in to the Twitter Spaces event before it suddenly went offline. Musk was able to launch a new online venue, but only about half of the original viewers were able to join.

Afterwards, the Biden-Harris 2024 campaign sent out a tweet that was clearly meant to mock DeSantis.

That was followed by celebratory tweets applauding the shade Biden had just thrown at DeSantis.

Greene Claims DeSantis’ 2024 Campaign Launch On Twitter Isn’t ‘Serious’ Because Social Media Is ‘Not Real’

Even though he formally filed paperwork today making it official that he will be seeking the 2024 Republican presidential nomination and is scheduled to publicly announce his intentions on Twitter Spaces with Twitter CEO Elon Musk later this evening, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis isn’t really “serious” about being president because he’s doing so on social media, according to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA).

Greene made her comments on Steve Bannon’s “War Room” podcast today, asserting that DeSantis needs to be in front of a large group of people to be taken seriously.

“You don’t announce that you’re running for President of the United States in some kind of weird little Twitter world,” Greene shrieked. “It’s not a real world! Twitter is not real! So I can’t comprehend why that would be the place to do the announcement. It makes no sense to me and it’s not serious!”

Of course, the irony of Greene’s comments cannot be overstated. After all, her lord and savior, Donald Trump, spent his entire presidency announcing things (including the hiring and firing of staff) on Twitter. It was his preferred mode of communication before he was booted from the platform for his repeated lies about the 2020 election, which was won in a landslide by President Joe Biden.

Greene also uses Twitter to excess, sharing videos of her demented rantings dozens of times each and every day.

As you might expect, Twitter users had some choice words for the Georgia Republican.
