An angry Donald Trump walked out of an interview with NBC’s Meet the Press host Kristen Welker after an extraordinary exchange in which the president angrily insisted–without offering any proof–that “elections are crooked and you’re crooked, and Meet the Press is crooked…and so is ABC and CBS and CNN.”
The interview, airing on NBC Sunday, turned confrontational when Welker asked Trump about his idea to use $1.8 billion in taxpayer money for a “weaponization fund” to compensate people who believe they were unfairly targeted by a federal government “weaponizing” the justice system against them.
It’s frustrating how the right hasn’t figured out Trump’s formula. Unless, they really don’t want to.
Losing? It’s rigged. They’re cheating.
Republican who speaks out? RINO, low IQ, traitor.
Left? Stupid, terrorist, socialist, Insert Insult before first name.
Media that questions or doesn’t agree? Fake news, corrupt, low viewership, stupid person and insert insult to women.
Celebrity who doesn’t agree? Washed up, no talent, traitor, has been.
It’s the same thing every single time. Not once has it changed since 2016. Whenever there is a tough question or a disagreement, he can’t handle it. He hasn’t ever answered a question with a thought out response that either diffuses the situation, or actually counters the argument being made. His brain doesn’t work that way. It’s instantly programmed to insult and disparage.
That trait usually reveals one of two things. The person is a flat out liar in what they are saying. They cannot formulate anything to get themselves out of it.
Secondly, the person is just stupid. Too stupid to figure out a way to put proper words together to debate the argument at hand. Five year olds do this because they haven’t matured enough. It’s understandable. For a 79 year old person, you could say it’s age. Trump, however, has been doing that for at least the last twenty-five years.
I have to chalk it up as a zombie mentality for the right. They simply hear and ask no questions. As I said, frustrating.
I don’t think they hear it at all. Anything unflattering or challenging is caught by the thought firewall at Fox/OAN/WTF and dropped. The bubble is comfortable and viewers rarely bother to step outside of it.
I have been convinced for a while that we could very easily get the orange dipshit to do a 180 on everything he claims he believes if someone were to suggest things in a way that made him think they were his ideas and just appease his ego.
But that would require appeasing the son of a bitch, and fuck that.
Mamdani got him repeating socialist stuff after just an hour that first time.
Petro of Columbia, his the target of the president’s handlers, turned him in his meeting as well.
