Trump Gets Supremely Mocked For Saying He’ll Be Making A ‘Major Announcement’ About The First Amendment

Even though he hasn’t been president for nearly six months now, failed, one-term former President Donald Trump seems to be under the mistaken impression that he can still change things by making speeches or firing off press releases.

The latest proof that Trump is living in an alternate reality where he’s still head of state comes in a tweet sent out by his “spokesperson,” Liz Harrington:

So next Wednesday in New Jersey, Donald Trump is going to regale us all with his “efforts to protect Americans’ First Amendment rights.”

Donald Trump and the First Amendment don’t exactly go together. After all, he spied on reporters while serving as head of state and suggested that Twitter, Facebook, and other social media platforms be shut down when the put warnings on his postings. In other words, Trump is the last person to protect the right to free speech and a free press, establishment of religion, or the right to assemble.

Remember when protesters were in Lafayette Park and Trump ordered them teargassed so he could go hold up a Bible in front of a church? How about when he called members of the news media “enemies of the people”?

The only person Trump thinks the First Amendment applies to is him or one of his demented surrogates. If he’d gotten a second term in office, the right to free speech would have been destroyed by his Justice Department and his handpicked asspuppet, William Barr.

Let the online mockery begin!

Don’t be surprised if Trump’s big “announcement” turns out to be him whining about being banned from Facebook and Twitter. He’s so damn pathetic.
