The right thinks Biden is “Temper Tantrum Joe” because he calmly & accurately described a man with no business being in the WH briefing room and whose job is solely to ask deliberately stupid questions? Sure guys. FYI this is what temper tantrums look like
Also important to note that calling a guy out who by every objective measure is a stupid son of a bitch is a far cry from demonizing the press as a whole, endorsing violence against them, teargassing them; and offering to pay legal fees for assaulting them
One of Trump’s most consistent themes as a candidate and as a “President” was his violent rhetoric toward the press, which is literally the only profession listed as protected under the First Amendment because it’s such a core part of democracy:
Many of these rallies had be cancelled due to fear of clashes between MAGA fanatics and protestors who Trump encouraged the vicious attack of without remorse or regard. “I promise you I will defend you in court.” He did not. The @GOP defended Trump, though
Trump: “You know what they used to do to a guy like that (black guy) when they were in a place like this (Klan rally)? They’d be carried out in a stretcher folks (if they weren’t shot, beaten to death, or lynched). Trump thinks these were the good ol days
Trump’s hateful rhetoric only intensified; as he refused to stop encouraging his supporters to instigate fights with his perceived enemies particularly those in the media. He also inspired waves of assaults against reporters & inspired the El Paso shooter
This is from his campaign, but who cares? This era will never be officially over until Trump is in jail, his family is in prison, his accomplices are losing their appeals for their consecutive life sentences to be cut short, the GOP and pandemic are over.

Here’s a transcript of Trump’s “Rose Garden Club” speech. If you ever wondered what full-blown dementia and narcissistic collapse sound like, it sounds like THIS: Image

.@RobertKennedyJr was put in charge of HHS specifically to make us weaker, sicker, and more vulnerable. This administration does not want to “Make America Healthy Again.” Every move they make is DESIGNED to POISON, STARVE, TRAP, and KILL us. It’s not negligence. It’s strategy. 🧵
Forcing senior leaders at the CDC out of their positions to roll back vaccine mandates and stop efforts to prevent food-borne illnesses doesn’t just risk more disease and death. It makes Americans UNDESIRABLE to the rest of the world. Who wants refugees carrying viral outbreaks?
That means fewer countries that are willing to accept U.S. citizens. No asylum. No refuge. No way out. For the wealthiest, this doesn’t matter — they have private jets and elite healthcare. But the rest of us are TRAPPED. Most of us can’t even afford to relocate outside the U.S.

Trump’s plan to rip U.S. Space Command HQ out of Colorado and dump it in Alabama is reckless, wasteful, and dangerous. It also dramatically weakens our national security at the worst possible time (THREAD 🧵).
Space Command is the nerve center of America’s nuclear defense. It detects launches anywhere on earth, tracks ICBMs, coordinates interagency responses, and protects satellite comms in a crisis. In a nuclear emergency, every second counts — moving it disrupts all of that.
Colorado Springs already has the necessary infrastructure to house its HQ e.g. Peterson, Schriever, Cheyenne Mountain, Buckley — basically everything Space Command needs, is already present in CO and fully operational now. Alabama has none of this whatsoever.

If Trump were a Russian asset, tasked with destroying America from the inside…what would he be doing differently than what he’s actually done since Jan 20th?

Let’s walk through it (THREAD 🧵).
✅ Undermine alliances

A Russian asset would sow doubt about NATO’s security guarantees in an effort to weaken and undermine the alliance [one of Putin’s primary goals].

Trump has waffled on Article 5, threatened to abandon allies and called them “delinquent.”
✅ Ease pressure on Moscow

A Russian asset would block new sanctions and weaken enforcement.

Trump has frozen new Russia sanctions for months. He had Hegseth freeze military aid to Ukraine. And he’s stressed the importance of “getting back to business” with Russia.

Trump’s 2AM meltdowns and dictator cosplay aren’t part of a predetermined strategy — they’re collapse. A malignant narcissist, weak and unhealthy, colliding with the one thing he can’t escape: DEATH. And his team knows it, which is why they’re going full-fascist now. (THREAD 🧵)
As a psychologist, I can tell you: when malignant narcissists lose control, they don’t fade quietly. They escalate exponentially — rage, smear campaigns, humiliation, projection, even violence. Every move is about punishing those who expose their weakness to claw back control.
This isn’t “toughness.” It’s disintegration. In my field we call it narcissistic mortification: the sheer terror, shame, and dread of being forced to confront one’s own fragility. To them, it feels like annihilation — as the false self they’ve lived behind for decades shatters.

.@realDonaldTrump:

1. There is no such thing as networks paying “license fees” to the government for news coverage, you hopelessly deranged lunatic. Broadcast stations need an FCC license, but networks themselves do not “pay up” like that. Image
2. The First Amendment exists. Remember that pesky document you pledged an oath to uphold and defend before lighting on fire? Its still in effect. The government can’t just yank licenses from broadcast networks because it doesn’t like their coverage, no matter how crazy you are.
3. Your framing of “the most valuable airwaves” — as if public airwaves are yours to not just tyrannically regulate the content of but rent out for personal financial gain/profit — shows just how transactional and autocratic your mindset is about power & unfit you are for office
