Donald Trump Jr. Social Media WTF?!

Donald Trump Jr. Says He ‘Waited In Bread Lines’ When He Was A Kid

Poor Donald Trump Jr. Even though he was born with a platinum spoon in his mouth and has never worked a day in his life (unless you count cheating on the mother of his five children as “work”), he wants us to feel sorry for him and believe that he cares about the average working American.

Appearing on the Newsmax show of Nazi sympathizer Seb Gorka, Don Jr. was asked about the “empty shelves” in the United States due to a backlog of cargo ships off the coast of California:

“When conservatives say, ‘They’re socialists. The Democrats have gone radical,’ this isn’t an exaggeration, is it? You’ve seen it, Don.”

Spoiled little rich douchebag Donnie Part Deux said he had traveled with his grandparents on his mother, Ivanka’s side, who were born in Czechoslovakia, and seen the horrors of socialism:

“So I traveled with them there every summer, you know, six, eight weeks. I’ve waited in those bread lines. We’re starting to see the empty shelves that I experienced then in communist Czechoslovakia in the ’80s in America right now.”

What Junior conveniently neglected to mention is that after he had seen the bread lines, his grandparents then (probably) took him to the nearest fancy restaurant right before they hopped on the Concorde and jetted back to New York City so Don Jr. could take a shit on a solid gold commode in daddy’s penthouse apartment.

Apparently, Don Jr. is aware the MAGA faithful are so brainwashed that they’ll hear his bullshit lies and sop them up like a biscuit.

But while the braindead Trump cultists are too stupid to question the falsehoods flowing from Junior’s pie hole, most of social media was ready to pelt him with well-deserved mockery. Take a look:

Helpful hint for Don Jr.: Next time you want to whine about how bad you had it as a child, first extract your head from your ass and take some deep breaths before you start farting out lies.

Forbes Calls Investing In Trump’s New Social Media Platform ‘A Sucker’s Bet’

Even though failed, one-term former President Donald Trump’s latest business venture — a social media platform he’s dubbed Truth Social — won’t actually be operational until early next year at the soonest, he’s already raising money to finance the project, which has Chuck Jones of Forbes warning that putting a dime into the Trump project is “a sucker’s bet.”

Investors have been somewhat bullish early on:

Former President Trump announced on Thursday that a newly formed company, TMTG or Trump Media & Technology Group, would merge with Digital World Acquisition Corporation. Digital World is a SPAC or Special Purpose Acquisition Company that was formed in September and whose stock price had essentially been trading around $10 before the TMTG announcement. On Thursday the stock rose to $52 before closing at $45.50 and on Friday it hit a high of $175 and closed at $94.20.

From $10 to $52, then back down to to $45.50 and finally closing at $94.20. That’s some major fluctuation in such a short time, but Jones explains people are betting on a company that has no revenue and no earnings, which is just as absurd and unstable as it sounds:

As Digital World’s IPO prospectus stated, “We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities since inception have been organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for this offering. Following this offering, we will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of our initial business combination.”

Does that sound like something you want in your stock portfolio? If so, then you should probably hand over control of your investment decisions to a 10-year-old and let them choose what stocks to buy on your behalf.

There’s also the matter of the only other publicly traded company Trump has ever been a part of: Trump Entertainment Resorts, which included most of the Donald’s Atlantic City casinos. How did that work out? According to the Washington Post:

“The company operated for roughly two decades, starting in 1995. For Trump’s investors, it was a disaster: The company lost more than $1 billion, its stock price nosedived, and it filed for bankruptcy three times, in 2004, 2009 and 2014. … But Trump himself did well: The struggling company paid him more than $44 million in salary, bonuses and other compensation.”

Trump did great, but investors got fleeced. That’s the story of Donald Trump’s life. He’s a failure and he’s always been one. He just has others pay for his ignorance. And for some reason, they keep falling for his con job.

Congress Social Media WTF?!

‘Ghoulish’ Lauren Boebert Slammed For Tweet Mocking Alec Baldwin After Tragedy On Movie Set

Less than 24 hours after actor Alex Baldwin accidentally shot and killed award-winning cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the movie “Rust,” Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) posted a hateful, tone-deaf tweet making light of the situation and attacking Baldwin.

Boebert referenced a tweet Baldwin sent seven years ago in the aftermath of the police shooting of Michael Brown, an 18-year-old black man who was gunned down by a police officer in Ferguson, Missiouri.

Even though the two events are not even vaguely similar, Boebert sent out this tweet:

Reaction on social media was immediate. Even former Trump White House Director of Strategic Communications Alyssa Farah was disgusted by Boebert’s attempt to use a tragedy in order to score cheap political points:

 

Democratic Congressman Ruben Gallego (AZ) also lit into Boebert:

Meghan McCain Claps Back When Trump Calls Her A ‘Low Life’

Even though it was established long ago that failed, one-term former President Donald Trump reads almost nothing except the minimal words on Big Mac boxes and Kentucky Fried Chicken buckets, the twice-impeached loser still gets incredibly triggered whenever anyone releases a book and mentions him in a less than flattering manner.

For example, Meghan McCain has written a book, Bad Republican, that was released on Thursday. And she does indeed mention the fact that Trump talked in disparaging ways about her late father, John McCain.

Meghan is also letting it be known that she isn’t a fan of the Donald’s favorite child, Ivanka, or her husband, Jared, telling Bravo host Andy Cohen that the two showed up at her father’s funeral, even though they hadn’t been invited:

“They should never have come, they had no business being there, I remember seeing them and seeing her specifically. They had no goddamn business being there and it’s something that still angers me, clearly.”

That led the ex-president to offer up an enraged reaction, issuing a statement through his spokesperson in which he angrily ranted:

Isn’t it funny that Meghan McCain, who has always been a bully and basically a low life, is now complaining that it was she who was bullied by the Slobs and Radical Left maniacs of “The View.” At the request of many of her representatives, I made it possible for her father to have the world’s longest funeral, designed and orchestrated by him, even though I was never, to put it mildly, a fan.

In his own very special way, he was a RINO’s RINO. Despite his fighting against me, I won Arizona by a lot in 2016 and won Arizona by even more in 2020—unfortunately the vote counters in 2020 were far more important than the candidate (See the determinative Report issued Wednesday by the Arizona Auditors!). I have since found out that McCain, who was close to last in his class at Annapolis, sent the fake and totally discredited scam Dossier to the FBI, hoping to stop the “Trump Train.”

In any event, Meghan should fight the Communists instead of explaining how they made her “physically ill.” She should fight back against the Losers of The View the way she fights against very good and well-meaning Republicans, and she would do herself a world of good!

Wow! That’s a hell of a lot of anger, pettiness, and delusion for one person, but we’re talking about Donald Trump, so it’s par for the course when it comes to one of the most hateful people to ever slither across the face of the planet.

Rather than try to do a point-by-point rebuttal that Trump would never have taken the time to read, Meghan McCain countered with a perfectly-worded tweet that put Donnie right in his place:

Yep, that pretty much covers it. And even though Meghan McCain may not be your cup of tea, either, at least she isn’t as deplorable as the tangerine shit stain.

Fox News Right Wing Morons The Biden Administration

Conservatives Lose Their Sh*t After Chris Wallace Calls Jen Psaki ‘One The Best Press Secretaries’

It’s so easy to upset conservatives and right-wingers. All you have to do is say something good about a member of the Biden administration or a Democrat in Congress and the extreme right begins frothing at the mouth and breathing fire.

For example, during a discussion of a back-and-forth at Friday’s White House press briefing between Fox News reporter Peter Doocy and press secretary Jen Psaki, there was a mention of President Joe Biden possibly paying a visit to the U.S.-Mexico border, to which Psaki said the president wouldn’t be going to the border for a “photo-op.”

That led Fox host Chris Wallace to praise both Doocy and Psaki, according to Mediaite:

“Honestly, as somebody who’s spent six years in the White House, my immediate reaction was those are two people at the top of their game,” Wallace said.

He praised Doocy for his tough questions and said, “I mean this as a compliment. I think he has become the Sam Donaldson of this White House press corps.”

Donaldson was famously aggressive in his questions to President Ronald Reagan when he was ABC News’ Chief White House Correspondent in the 80s.

“And since I was working in the press corps when Sam Donaldson was there, that’s a very grudging compliment on my part,” Wallace quipped. The Fox News Sunday anchor was NBC News’ Chief White House Correspondent during that time period.

He went on to say that Psaki “is one of the best press secretaries ever.”

Psaki is indeed very good at her job, and unlike her predecessors in the Trump administration, she holds a press briefing five days a week, Monday through Friday, and never begs off doing so just because she doesn’t want to answer tough questions on issues that impact the American people.

But based on the reaction Wallace received from conservatives and other assorted right-wing snowflakes, you’d have though he just said Donald Trump is a member of QAnon and drinks the blood of infants in order to maintain the tangerine tint to his skin.
