Fragile Former Guy Has An Enraged Meltdown When NBC Reporter Asks Him A Question

Indicted one-term, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump is once again proving that he’s completely unfit for public office, according to Vanity Fair, which has obtained a recording of the failed ex-president having a childish meltdown on board his campaign plane when asked a question by NBC reporter Vaughn Hillyard.

Charlotte Klein of Vanity Fair reports, “It was March and former president Donald Trump was aboard his plane with a gaggle of reporters following a campaign rally in Waco, Texas. He started off in good spirits. But then a line of questioning from NBC News reporter Vaughn Hillyard, who suggested that Trump had in recent days seemed “frustrated” by Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s investigation, began irritating the former president. “Don’t ask me any more questions,” Trump said. About 10 minutes later, as Hillyard continued to ask about the investigation, Trump snapped, grabbing the reporter’s two phones and chucking them to the side, according to a source familiar with the matter. “Get him out of here,” Trump told his aides, according to a recording obtained by Vanity Fair.

The Vanity Fair report confirms another from The Guardian, which notes that Trump was troubled and angry by anyone daring to ask about his pending indictment in Manhattan.

“I’m not frustrated by it. It’s a fake investigation. We did nothing wrong – I told you that,” the former president said before proceeding to lash out at the NBC News reporter on the plane who asked if he was frustrated. “This is fake news, and NBC is one of the worst. Don’t ask me any more questions.”

Since the encounter with Hillyard, the Trump 2024 campaign has drastically cut back on media access to the former president, allowing only friendly media outlets to travel on the same plane with the insecure man baby.

The only reporters on Trump’s plane for last week’s trip to New Hampshire were from friendly conservative outlets: Henry Rodgers of The Daily Caller and Daniel Baldwin of OANN. Baldwin, in his write-up of the trip, wrote of the “warm” and “welcoming” former president, “It’s clear Trump values the opinions of everyone he surrounds himself with, whether he agrees or disagrees. He even turned to me and said, ‘You really know your sports.’”

Trump is still facing possible indictments in Georgia and by a grand jury impaneled by Justice Department Special Counsel Jack Smith.

‘Bloated Blue Bum’ Trump Gets Hilariously Mocked For His Scotland Photo Op

Indicted one-term, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump spent Monday in Scotland, breaking ground on a new golf course, according to a report from The Comeback.

Former U.S. President Donald Trump is in the news again as he helped break ground on a new golf course in Scotland on Monday. And a photo of Trump at the course has gone viral.

Trump traveled to Scotland to both play golf and visit his mother’s ancestral home. Additionally, he helped to break ground on a new course in Aberdeen, where he owns a course and hotel resort.

Here’s the photo that went viral:

It must have been damn cold in Scotland for Donnie to be bundled up in that coat (which adds at least 50 lbs. worth of photo weight to his already obese frame) and ridiculous blue stocking cap.

As Trump was posing for the photo op in Scotland, a defamation trial brought by writer E. Jean Carroll was taking place in a New York courtroom. Carroll alleges that Trump raped her and then defamed her when she made her accusation public.

But it was the photo itself that set off the most chatter on social media, with Twitter users speculating what the real purpose of that shovel Trump was holding could have been and also noting that he looks like he’s getting fatter by the day.

Marine Vet Congressman Slams Nikki Haley As A ‘Poser’ For Photo Of Her With A Gun

In an attempt to curry favor with gun owners (especially the ones who vote in Republican primaries), GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley posted a photo of herself with a gun online.

On Twitter, Haley relayed this message:

“Making sure our military has the equipment they need to keep us safe is a priority. @SigSauerInc is keeping them on the cutting edge. Thank you for letting us check out the latest. #LiveFreeOrDie“

That posting led Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) — A Marine veteran who served with honor in Iraq — to respond, calling Haley a “poser” who doesn’t even know how to properly hold such a weapon.

“Poser alert: Why is your finger on the trigger ! 1. Bolt is clear back and there is no Magazine. 2. The linked ammo on the stand you are ‘shooting’ from doesn’t feed into the magazine fed weapon you have. 3. Your stockwell is gonna hurt you when that weapon kickback”

Nice try, Nikki, but your photo is almost as absurd as your bid for the White House.

Megyn Kelly’s Controversial Red Cap Blows Up The Internet And Gets Her Labeled A Bigot

Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly — who currently does a podcast on SiriusXM radio — became the talk of the internet due to a red baseball cap she wore in a photo taken with a friend of hers in Miami.

According to Mediaite, Kelly tweeted out this message:

“Thank you for a HUGE week on the ⁦@MegynKellyShow⁩. In Miami celebrating our friend’s 50th & looking fwd to another great week of shows starting Monday,” she wrote above the image. Kelly’s hat, red with white lettering, had the words “Make Women Female Again.”

After getting lots of replies asking Kelly where she had gotten the cap, she replied.

Posie Parker is the pseudonym of Kellie-Jay Keen-Minshull, a notorious anti-trans crusader. An anti-trans rally held by Parker in Melbourne in March was attended by neo-Nazis who raised their arms in Nazi salutes:

The Victorian government said it was open to looking at further action against the display of hate symbols after a group of protesters performed Nazi salutes outside parliament on Saturday. Clashes broke out on Saturday between rival protest groups on the steps of Victoria’s parliament after a group of men performed Nazi salutes. The men had gathered in support of British anti-transgender activist Posie Parker.

Kelly’s tweet has since gone viral, with over 1.3 million views, and while right-wingers were delighted by her cap, many others were not so impressed.

Here’s a sampling of Kelly’s brainless podcast with her whining about the firing of Tucker Carlson:

GOP Supreme Court WTF?!

Ted Cruz: Democrats Only Hate Clarence Thomas Because ‘He’s A Black Man’

If you thought you’d heard all of the absurd defenses that can possibly be offered up in the vain attempt to suggest that Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas didn’t do anything unethical when he accepted free trips worth tens of thousands of dollars from a Republican megadonor, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) suggested today that it’s all due to racism on the part of Democrats.

Appearing on “Sunday Futures” with Fox News host Maria Bartiromo, Cruz had this to say:

“We know what Justice Thomas did wrong. He’s been one of the greatest Supreme Court justices ever to serve on the court. He has been a principal constitutionalist,and the left despises him; Democrats hate Justice Thomas, and they have the special degree of hate for him because he’s a Black man.”

“And their view is that African-American is not allowed to be a conservative is not allowed to disagree with left-wing orthodoxy,” he added.

According to Cruz, some of the liberals on the high court had also accepted trips, but he conveniently neglected to mention any names, probably because he was lying.

“They’re not looking at any of the Democrat justice. They’re not looking at any other judges. This is a political smear job directed at Clarence Thomas because he is an extraordinary constitutionalist.”

Ted Cruz wants us to believe that questioning the ethics of a justice on the Supreme Court is racist. So if the question was about Amy Coney Barrett, would that mean it was sexism? Interesting to see how quickly Republicans play the race card when they have no actual defense for one of their right-wing heroes.
