I'm showing you this photo of Donald Trump with no hair transplants and no bronzer, not to mock him, but to show you the absurdity of it all. As part of Donald Trump's late night meltdown on Sunday, he kept on posting these photographs of himself to show what good photographs and good portraits of himself look like. And he wanted to make it very clear that there's a
painting of him in Colorado at the State Capitol building put up by the governor of Colorado. And Donald Trump says it is a distorted portrait of himself. And he said that the artist must have lost her talent as she got older because he says it's very bad.
and needs to be taken down immediately, and then he shows what the portrait of himself looks like, and then he just starts posting photos of himself, and portraits of himself, and memes of himself. I mean, folks, we're not talking about running for the class clown of third grade, and no offense to class clowns of third grade, but this is the presidency.
Can we grow up and not normalize this behavior? This is the leader of what was once the leader of the free world before Donald Trump in under 70 days squandered that. He squandered that, frankly, really in the first week or so. And then this is what he kept on posting last night over and over again. So this was like 9.30 his time online.
The failing New York Times insists on using little Peter Baker, a bad writer, Obama biographer, to write long and boring fake news hit pieces against me. The only people with less talent than Peter are his wife and, of course, maggot Hagerman. Hagerman is stupid. Again, this would make a petulant third grader, no offense to petulant third graders, look mature. It is humiliating.
It is a weapon of mass humiliation. Then after that, at 9.49 p.m. his time, or 8.49 p.m. his time, he goes, why would the now highly discredited 60 Minutes do a puff piece on George Clooney, a second-rate movie star? What in the world? Look, there are real issues right now. Real suffering taking place in this country caused by this maniac.
People don't know if they're going to get their Social Security check next month. As Donald Trump's puppet master, Elon Musk, says that Social Security is a Ponzi scheme. Donald Trump's Commerce Secretary, Howard Lutnick, says if you complain about not getting your Social Security check, you're probably committing crimes and fraud.
People don't know if Medicaid is going to still be around tomorrow. In the MAGA Republican budget, it calls for basically the total obliteration of Medicaid. Donald Trump has signed an executive order to try and eliminate the Department of Education. Donald Trump has attacked veterans, cut tens of thousands of jobs at the VA, fired veterans, dismantled the federal government.
You know, and he's just posting stupid crap like that as well. To me, it compounds the cartoonish villainousness of this regime. To our enemies, they're a laughingstock. To our allies, they're just completely horrified by this. And the behavior just continues over and over in the morning he posts stuff. I love dollar sign Trump, so cool. The greatest of them all pumping up his meme coin.
