Those who laugh last laugh best and longest. Seriously over in left leaning land we have been just laughing our asses of for going on three days. Trump is totally impotent in the face of President Biden exposing him for the lying loser traitor he really is.

And its even funnier knowing Trump watched President Biden's speech and hung on every word just waiting for President Biden to say his name. Which of course President Biden never did because he's just another lying traitor not even worth mentioning.


'Furious' Trump complained to friends about 1/6 anniversary coverage while watching at Mar-a-Lago: report

According to a report from Newsweek's Bill Powell, Donald Trump spent the day of the anniversary of the Jan 6th insurrection obsessively watching TV coverage of President Joe Biden's speech -- as well as other proceedings about the events of that day -- and bitterly complained about what he was seeing on the screen to friends.

The former president was supposed to hold a press conference on Thursday as the new president was speaking but that called off on the advice of family and friends less than 48 hours before, leaving him on the sidelines.

Although the former president fired off a series of statements lashing out left and right, he reportedly fumed over the somber media coverage while sitting in at his Mar-a-Lago resort.

According to Powell, Trump reached out to friends to complain.


"As President Joe Biden spoke on January 6, the first anniversary of the Capitol riots, Donald Trump was fuming. From his Mar-a-Lago estate, he watched as Biden lambasted him, blaming him directly for the unrest, branding him as nothing less than a threat to American democracy," the report states before adding, "Trump had known what was coming."

The report notes "He expected Biden and the media to savage him on the anniversary. Not because he deserved it–close friends and political allies of the former president all say he still angrily rejects any culpability for the January 6 riot—but because, as he told one friend, 'it's all they've got.'"

According to one Mar-a-Lago Trump friend, "[Trump said] they can't talk about anything else because the guy [Biden] is such a disaster."

The report notes that the twice-impeached former president didn't watch all of the coverage, with a Trump insider confiding that he did stop "to take some phone calls, and for lunch. But he watched most of it—and was furious."

The mad king dictator is panicking because he can feel it slipping away. Traitor Trump cannot afford too many treasonous conservative/Republicans saying the emperor has no clothes before he and his Big Lie are standing their buck assed naked. While at the same time being too mentally ill to be able to comprehend the Big Lie is now all but impossible to defend. Every single attempt to come up with evidence of voter or election fraud has worse than failed. They all blow up in Trump and the treasonous conservative/Republican's faces and end up with things so laughable they circulate for days with mockery because they are just that hilarious.


Trump blows his top after GOP senator says election was fair: 'Is he crazy or just stupid?'

Former President Donald Trump on Monday lashed out at Sen. Mike Rounds (R-SD) after he called the 2020 presidential election "fair" over the weekend.

During a Sunday interview, Rounds said, "While there were some irregularities, there were none of the irregularities which would have risen to the point where they would have changed the vote outcome in a single state."

On Monday, Trump accused Rounds of going "woke."

"Is he crazy or just stupid?" Trump wrote. "The numbers are conclusive and the fraudulent and irregular votes are massive."

The former president vowed to never endorse Rounds again.

"Even though his election will not be coming up for 5 years, I will never endorse this jerk again," Trump said. "The Radical Left Democrats and RINOS, like 'Senator' Mike Rounds, do not make it easy for our country to succeed. He is a weak and ineffective leader, and I hereby firmly pledge that he will never receive my Endorsement again!"

This is pretty funny. Trump already took his best shot and threat at him and instead of cowering like all the other treasonous conservative/Republicans he's doubling down. And making other Republicans look like the treasonous cowards they are for not speaking out.

Republican senator doubles down on fact Trump 'lost' — and says nearly all colleagues agree

U.S. Sen. Mike Rounds (R-SD) angered President Donald Trump this week by saying that the 2020 election was "fair."

Despite the fact that Trump angrily condemned Rounds for his accurate statement, the South Dakota senator isn't backing down.

In a statement released Monday, Rounds said that Trump not only lost but "nearly all of my Senate Republicans" agree.

l

"This isn't new information," Rounds said in his statement. "If we're being honest, there was no evidence of widespread fraud that would have altered the results of the election. To that point, nearly all of my Senate Republican colleagues acknowledged this last January. During the electoral certification process, we did our due diligence and looked at the challenges made by the former president's lawyers. Over 90 senators agreed that there was not enough evidence to overturn the results and, therefore, certified the election as our Constitution calls for."

How a Trump Golf Course Is Screwing Over a Public School


Former President Donald Trump and his business empire always fight aggressively to come out on top—and this time, the sucker on the other end of the deal is a public school district.

For seven years, the Trump National Golf Club Westchester just north of New York City battled with the local government to lower its property tax bill—while simultaneously inflating its value elsewhere by millions. Then in August, emboldened by another golf club’s victory in court, the Trump club pressured locals to strike a deal and cut its assessed value by a third.

That means the Trump club can claim it overpaid taxes, so local governments are forking over cash. But of all the local entities stuck paying fat refund checks worth about $850,000, the worst hit was the tiny suburban Briarcliff Manor Union Free School District. The public education system—which consists of a single elementary, middle, and high school—has picked up the biggest tab, worth $588,155.12.

One local official involved in the process told The Daily Beast that the schools won’t be making any cuts, instead just passing along the higher costs to people who actually live in the area.

“This is freaking annoying that a scoundrel won’t pay taxes. My taxes are higher because his taxes are lower,” said the official, who wasn’t allowed to speak publicly.

It’s a small zone, so locals are more likely to actually feel it. With only 2,399 parcels on the books in the village of Briarcliff, taxpayers will be shelling out an extra $245 on average next year—depending on their property value.

“It's significant in the sense that this has to be made up by all the other residents that pay taxes, and most of them would not have approved a golf course that they would eventually have to subsidize,” said Fernando Gonzalez, the tax assessor for the local town of Ossining.

“Anything Trump-related is despicable and/or corrupt,” said Marie Chalita, a homeowner in Briarcliff Manor who told The Daily Beast she is “not happy about paying it.”

This Trump deal is the reason the Briarcliff school board was forced to increase its budget by 1 percent in October, when it added over half a million dollars to “judgements and claims.” Before that, the school system had only allocated a measly $20,246 to incoming lawsuits.

The massive tax refund would have been enough to pay up to 10 new teachers’ salaries, according to numbers listed in a recent union labor contract.

The Trump Organization did not respond to a request for comment.

As The Daily Beast previously reported, this Trump golf club filed yearly grievances since 2015 seeking to vastly reduce its property tax bill against every local entity involved: Westchester County, the town of Ossining, the village of Briarcliff, and Briarcliff public schools.

For example, in 2016, the company challenged its government-assessed value of $15.1 million, arguing that the real value was actually $7.5 million. Local governments refused to budge and let the sitting U.S. president reduce his tax bill—while claiming on presidential disclosure forms that his club was actually worth at least a whopping $50 million.

But the tide turned in April 2021, when some of these same local governments lost a tax value fight against another nearby golf course, the Sleepy Hollow Country Club.

New York State Judge Bruce E. Tolbert ruled that “there is no mandate to value golf courses or country clubs using any particular techniques,” allowing the members-only club to shrink its property value. The judicial opinion established something of a precedent, making municipal governments think twice about mounting a defense to miserly golf clubs in court.

“This one decision completely changed how golf courses are now taxed,” said Stephen P. Dewey, the attorney who represented Ossining in its deal with the Trump golf club. In the end, the town got stuck paying a $20,444 refund.

When the Ossining board voted to approve the settlement in July, town supervisor Dana A. Levenberg explained that the move was the “prudent and fiscally responsible course for the town.”

“It avoids what would be a lengthy and costly litigation, as well as the possibility that the town would not prevail in the litigation—in which case the town would end up worse off in both the short and long term. Also, although both sides gave back during the negotiation, the settlement values are closer to those presented by the town than the golf club,” she said during the meeting.

On Aug. 13, that same judge signed off on a settlement agreement between Trump National Golf Club LLC and Ossining and Briarcliff’s school district. The deal cut the assessed value from roughly $15 million down to $9.5 million.

It was a defeat that the local elected representative in the state’s legislature, Assemblywoman Sandy Galef, had tried to avoid for years. Back in 2019, she introduced a bill seeking to value golf courses based on “the property’s highest and best use rather than its current use.” Galef felt that system would more accurately reflect the wealth behind the region’s 18-hole golf courses, which are situated on forested landscapes with beautiful, bubbling streams and rolling hills flanked by green mountains.

Galef told The Daily Beast that she was disappointed that Trump finally won his tax fight.

“I feel badly about it. I always want people to pay their fair share in taxes,” she said. “He was the person that figured out every way to get around something. If somebody really looked at his business books, they'd probably be amazed.”

That’s actually what several New York prosecutors are working on at the moment. Last year, Ossining received a subpoena from Westchester County District Attorney Mimi Rocah for her investigation into Trump’s wildly fluctuating valuations for the golf course. That effort echoes a long-running and ongoing civil probe by New York Attorney General Letitia James into alleged tax dodging and bank fraud. Then there’s the joint criminal investigation by the Manhattan district attorney and AG James, which has already ensnared the Trump Organization and chief financial officer Allen Weisselberg for alleged tax fraud.

“It’s not a drop in the bucket. It’s a lot of money for a school district, even a well-resourced school district. Just because we settled doesn’t mean we're happy about it,” said another local government official, who preferred to remain anonymous.

 

There are at lest three separate investigations going on in New York right now looking at things like this. And you can tell they are getting close because the whole Trump family is starting to freak out about it.

 

Trump picks a QAnon-linked supporter as his ‘special guest speaker’ at new rally

Alex Henderson, AlterNet
January 11, 2022



QAnon supporters (Shutterstock)


Whenever Donald Trump was asked about QAnon during the 2020 presidential race, he avoided either promoting or criticizing their far-right conspiracy theorists. Trump would typically say that he didn’t know much about QAnon but heard that they “love America” and oppose pedophilia. Now, Trump is featuring a major QAnon supporter at a Florence, Arizona MAGA rally scheduled for this Saturday, January 15: Arizona State Sen. Mark Finchem, billed as the event’s “special guest speaker.”

Finchem is running for Arizona secretary of state — a position presently held by Democrat Katie Hobbs, who is running for governor. Republicans who have been competing with Finchem for the GOP nomination in that secretary of state race include Shawnna Bolick, Michelle Ugenti-Rita and Beau Lane; Trump has endorsed Finchem, who hasn’t been shy about promoting QAnon’s ludicrous conspiracy theories.

QAnon believes, among many other things, that the United States’ federal government has been taken over by an international cabal of pedophiles, child sex traffickers, Satanists and cannibals and that Trump was elected in 2016 to fight the cabal — which they think is being funded in part by billionaire Democrat George Soros. QAnon adherents mostly blame Democrats for the cabal, but they blame some Never Trump Republicans as well.

In a 2020 interview with Victory Media, Finchem said, “We’ve got a serious problem in this nation. There’s a lot of people involved in a pedophile network in the distribution of children…. And, unfortunately, there’s a whole lot of elected officials that are involved in that.’”

Finchem, however, isn’t the only QAnon supporter Trump has allied himself with. Others include Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado.

Mother Jones’ David Corn reports, “Finchem has repeatedly declined to comment to reporters about his QAnon-ish beliefs, but his QAnon connection has become something of an issue in his race for secretary of state, with media reports referring to his past statements and posts. In October, he was a ‘special guest’ at a QAnon conference in Las Vegas. The speakers for this event were a veritable parade of QAnon promoters and other fringe theorists.”

In addition to supporting QAnon, Finchem has aggressively promoted the Big Lie — Trump’s false and debunked claim that he really won the 2020 election but was robbed of his victory because of widespread voter fraud. One recount after another has made it abundantly clear that now-President Joe Biden legitimately won that election; in fact, he defeated Trump by more than 7 million votes. Regardless, Finchem continues to promote Trump’s bogus election fraud claims.

The January 15 MAGA rally will feature an extremist who’s-who of far-right Big Lie promoters, including MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell; Kelli Ward, who chairs the Arizona GOP; Rep. Paul Gosar (who was censured by House Democrats for posting an animated video that depicted him murdering Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez), Rep. Andy Biggs and Kari Lake, a former Fox anchor who is running for governor.

This is more than just rage quitting. Trump cannot bear to have his delusional reality challenged, If he is forced to admit he's wrong or even question himself any shred of doubt could cause his fragile ego to collapse. A fate worse than death to him,

NPR's Steve Inskeep had been hoping to interview Donald Trump for years, but when he finally got his chance -- it didn't last long.

The former president agreed to speak to Inskeep, who first asked for an interview in 2015, but the conversation ended after nine minutes after the radio host challenged Trump on his 2020 election lies.

Oh please please get your treasonous conservative/Republican cult followers to boycott AT&T and Direct TV.

WATCH: Trump Fumes at ‘Woke Executives’ Pulling OAN from DirecTV, Floats Call of a Boycott Against DirecTV Parent Co. AT&T
By Joe DePaoloJan 16th, 2022, 10:45 am
261 comments


Former President Donald Trump is blaming “woke executives” for pulling far-Right channel One America News (OAN) from DirecTV.

In remarks at his rally in Arizona on Saturday, the former president railed against the network’s removal from one of the nation’s largest TV providers.

“The woke executives, I don’t know what the hell they’re doing,” Trump said. “They have so much debt. (DirecTV parent company) AT&T is a company that is in serious trouble. And they need AT&T, and AT&T is saying that they may no longer agree to carry this network that’s doing very well. You know why? Because people told them not to do it.”

The former president then floated a call for his supporters to boycott AT&T.

“So maybe what we should do is not use AT&T,” Trump said — to a cheering crowd.

Trump went on to praise OAN as a “great network” where “you really get the truth.”

The former president shouted out Charles and Robert Herring, who founded OAN and operate the network. Trump then mockingly noted that the Herrings asked him not to call for a boycott of AT&T.

“They said please don’t mention the word boycott, so i won’t mention it,” Trump said. “I’m not going to use the word boycott. I will not say boycott AT&T! Because I promised Robert I will not do it! So I will not say boycott them!”

Trump lashes out at MSNBC: ‘Will Morning Joe be canceled?’

Donald Trump lashed out at MSNBC in a statement emailed to reporters shortly after 5 a.m.

"Will Morning Joe be canceled?" Trump asked of the show hosted by his former friends, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski.

"He and Mika’s ratings are very low—they are having an extremely hard time finding an audience to listen to the Fake News they spurn," Trump argued, without giving an example of fake news.

"Losing them would be very sad—hope it doesn’t happen!" he said with an exclamation point.

Trump also attacked MSNBC's Joy Reid as a racist.

"On another front, looks like Unjoy Reid, the racist commentator on MSDNC (MSNBC), is toast. Her stupidity is only surpassed by her absolute lack of television persona. She never had it, and never will. The only thing she’s good at is spewing racist hate but obviously, no one is listening!" Trump argued.

Trump claims he couldn't have lost the 2020 presidential election because his Arizona rally boasted thousands of attendees and had 'cars that stretch out for 25 miles'

• 
  Former President Donald Trump on Saturday continued efforts to raise doubt over his election loss.
  
• During an Arizona rally, Trump pointed to the crowd size and heavy traffic to justify his opinion.
  
• It remains unclear whether Trump plans to run again for president in 2024.
  

Former President Donald Trump on Saturday bragged about the crowd size of an Arizona rally and pointed to heavy traffic leading into the event venue as evidence disputing the result of the 2020 election.

Nearly a year after Trump departed the White House after losing his reelection bid to Joe Biden, the former president continues to cast doubt on the legitimacy of the election despite there being no evidence of mass irregularities.

During his "Save America" rally in Florence — the first large-scale Trump-helmed public gathering of 2022 — the former commander in chief once again called the election "fake" before equating the breadth of his in-person rallies to the presidential election results.

"A person that comes here and has crowds that go further than any eye can see — there's nobody that can see the end of this crowd," Trump told thousands of cheering supporters.

He continued: "And has cars that stretch out for 25 miles. That's not somebody that lost an election, and now because of it, our country is being destroyed."

While Trump sported his trademark "Make America Great Again" hat and spoke with roughly 15,000 supporters, per an Arizona Republic estimate, the former president went down a laundry list of grievances about the 2020 election and Biden's presidency, especially as it pertained to the state of the economy and the US-Mexico border.

The Republic also reported that traffic for the Florence rally "was backed up for more than an hour," with attendees waiting in lines that traversed from the front of the venue to a dirt parking lot.

Trump has long equated crowd sizes to electoral support and frequently blasted Biden's scaled-down events during the 2020 campaign. Biden — who had sought to adhere to social distancing during the coronavirus pandemic — generally stuck with hosting outdoor campaign events like drive-in rallies.

Trump has teased a 2024 presidential run for almost a year, notably at rallies he held in support of Republican candidates last year, and did so again Saturday.

During a Fox News interview in November, Trump said a final decision was still up in the air.

"I am certainly thinking about it and we'll see," he told the outlet. "I think a lot of people will be very happy, frankly, with the decision, and probably will announce that after the midterms."

Arizona was one of the hardest-fought states of the 2020 presidential election — and the longtime conservative stronghold is expected to be hotly contested in 2024 as well.

Last year, Biden became the first Democratic presidential nominee since Bill Clinton in 1996 to win the state's electoral votes, edging out Trump by 10,457 votes out of nearly 3.4 million ballots cast.

Fucking hilarious. The truth is President Biden sent the White House into near cardiac arrest because once he got through with the reporters they had agreed to call on he just looked at the reporters and opened the whole floor for any and all questions.

'I think his meds are wearing off': Trump mocked after falsely accusing Biden of taking only 'softball' questions

John Wright
January 19, 2022

Former president Donald Trump issued a statement Wednesday afternoon accusing President Joe Biden of taking only "softball questions" during a White House news conference.

“How come Biden picks a reporter off a list, in all cases softball questions, and then reads the answer?" Trump said in the statement from his Save America PAC. "I would never have been allowed to get away with that, nor would I have to!”

Trump's statement was issued midway through the news conference. Although Biden began by taking questions from pre-selected reporters, he later opened it up to everyone in the room, including calling on reporters from conservative outlets Newsmax and Fox News.

"By the time the statement hit, Biden had made it outdated," CNN senior reporter Edward-Isaac Dovere noted. "Also important: none of the other questions Biden took from the outlets which were not among the deliberately antagonistic could credibly be called 'softball questions,' as he was hammered on topics like inflation, COVID restrictions, gov't competency, more."

Here's how Twitter reacted to Trump's statement.

Jimmy Kimmel mocks 'world's craziest ex' Trump for attacking Biden: 'Just another old man in Florida'

John Wright

Donald Trump plays golf at Trump National Doral (screen grab)



Jimmy Kimmel on Thursday night marked the one-year anniversary of President Joe Biden's inauguration.

"It's also the one-year anniversary of Donald Trump skipping his inauguration, like it was Don Jr.'s birthday party or something," Kimmel said during his monologue. "One year ago today, Donald and Melania Trump boarded Air Force One to fly home to Florida, and that was the last time they saw each other."

Kimmel also mocked Trump for his statement Wednesday falsely accusing Biden of taking only "softball" questions during a White House news conference, and claiming he "would never have been allowed to get away with that."

"So he released this while Biden was in the middle of the press conference," Kimmel said. "He really is the world's crazy ex. Basically, Biden is Pete Davidson, America is Kim Kardashian, and Trump is a chubby orange Kanye."

"He got away with everything," Kimmel added. "He Sharpie'd his own weather on a map. There's nothing he didn't get away with. But now he's just another old man in Florida complaining about things he sees on TV."

Watch the full monologue below.
