Whether you love or hate Donald Trump, it’s my duty to say that he responded to a user on Truth Social by saying: “NEVER FELT BETTER IN MY LIFE.”
That’s in response to some ugly and reckless online rumors that I won’t dignify here, although CNN made time to discuss it, adding that vicious online chatter is not true.
What is true is that the president has been on an online rampage, that denouncing his opponents gives him immense satisfaction and portrays him as a fighter. Fighting has been his default setting, ever since he was battling the likes of Leona Helmsley as a New York developer.
And it goes beyond politics. Trump has demanded that Roger Clemens, credibly accused of taking illegal drugs, be admitted to the Hall of Fame now, rather than waiting till his death as in the case of Pete Rose. He says this is part of a “deal” he made with the baseball commissioner.
PRESIDENT TRUMP ADDRESSES WILD RUMORS ABOUT HIS HEALTH: ‘IT’S FAKE NEWS’
And then there are other parts of the culture war, such as declaring parts of the Smithsonian museums too “woke,” and personally announcing the Kennedy Center Awards choices after ousting Democrats from the theater’s board.
The president is also escalating his rhetoric against the media, demanding that ABC and NBC – both of which settled his lawsuits by $16 million or more – lose their licenses because of their negative coverage…of him.
Joe Biden used to be out of sight in Rehoboth for three days and no one noticed. Trump does that – though there have been reporter “sightings” – and the media go crazy. That’s because we’re so accustomed to seeing him every day. He may have minor ailments – bruised hand, swollen ankles – but he’s, well, old,, and it would be helpful if he released more medical information. But the guy held a 3-hour, 15-minute presser just a few days ago!
And if you’ve crossed Donald in the past – fughedaboudit!
President Donald Trump…
