Hey, look! we’ve got another round of “Oh my God, what the hell is Trump whining about NOW?” This time, it’s not just about mean tweets or someone bruising his fragile ego. No, no, this time, Trump’s team—led by Melania—released a list of all the nasty things Democrats have said about him. And they’re actually trying to suggest that these mean words are the reason why people are out there thinking about assassination attempts. I’m sorry, what? They really expect us to believe that?
Let me get this straight—Trump, the guy who spent years slinging insults like he’s running a roast on Comedy Central, now wants to say, “Well, the reason someone might want to kill me is because the Democrats were mean to me!” Are we in kindergarten? The man who has called more people losers than any schoolyard bully is now clutching his pearls and acting like he’s being targeted because the other side has been a little too harsh.
Let’s not forget the hits from Trump’s own playbook. He’s the guy who went after John McCain—an actual war hero—and said, “He’s not a war hero. I like people who weren’t captured.” Because apparently being tortured for years as a POW isn’t good enough for Donny. And Rosie O’Donnell? Oh, she got the “fat, ugly slob” treatment. He’s had a years-long beef with her like they’re stuck in a never-ending bad sitcom.
Then there’s Carly Fiorina. He basically looked at her face and said, “Would anyone vote for that?” Dude, it’s not a beauty pageant! Which, come to think of it, he ran for years, so maybe that’s why his brain is stuck in “judging people’s faces” mode.
And let’s talk about Hillary Clinton, because Trump’s favorite pastime was trashing her. I mean, I’ve never seen someone more obsessed with a nickname. Every time he got near a microphone, it was “Crooked Hillary this” and “Crooked Hillary that.” If there were a drinking game for how often he called her crooked, we’d all have been blackout drunk by the first debate. This guy spent the 2016 campaign launching verbal grenades at Clinton like it was some kind of sport.
But now? Now that the tables have turned and some Democrats have thrown a few barbs his way, suddenly it’s, “Oh no, it’s too much, they’re inciting violence!” Get outta here! Trump spent *years* creating a toxic political environment. The man said some of the nastiest stuff we’ve ever heard from a president! He literally mocked a disabled reporter by imitating his movements on stage. Who does that? And then he turns around and cries foul because people on the other side say, “Hey, maybe this guy isn’t all that stable.”
You know what? What comes around goes around. You can’t spend your entire career punching people in the face, metaphorically or otherwise, and then act surprised when someone throws a jab (or a bullet) back. Trump is the guy who suggested Ted Cruz’s dad might have been involved in the JFK assassination. I’m not even kidding. He just tossed that out there like it’s the kind of thing people say at Sunday brunch. And now he wants to act like a few mean words from Democrats are going to push someone over the edge?
Dude, you’ve been lighting that fire for years.
Remember when he called Mika Brzezinski “bleeding badly from a face-lift”? Classy, right? Or when he labeled Elizabeth Warren “Pocahontas” like it was some clever insult he couldn’t stop himself from repeating? That was his shtick—just lobbing personal attacks left and right. But now, with this list Melania is rolling out, they’re trying to spin it like the Democrats are the ones turning the political scene into a blood sport. Nah, man, Trump invented this game. He’s the one who turned politics into a verbal brawl, and now that it’s coming back at him, he’s crying foul.
Look, political rhetoric is rough. It’s not pretty, and it’s gotten ugly on both sides. But don’t stand there and pretend that Trump is some innocent victim in all this. He’s the guy who opened up the floodgates of name-calling, insults, and conspiracy theories. Steve Bannon? He said the guy “lost his mind” after getting fired. *Rex Tillerson*? “Dumb as a rock.” Jeff Sessions? He practically disowned the guy, saying, “I don’t have an Attorney General.”
So now, we’re supposed to believe that because some Democrats said mean things, that’s why people are plotting against him? Please. This is a man who built his entire persona on tearing people down. He made politics a slugfest, and now he wants to rewrite the rules to say, “But not me! Don’t hit me back! That’s dangerous!”
Here’s the bottom line: if you’re going to dish it out, you better be able to take it. Trump spent years pummeling anyone who dared get in his way with insults and attacks. And now, he’s upset that people are throwing some of that energy back at him? Welcome to the game, buddy. You built this. You reap what you sow.
Such a whiny little bitch! And don’t even get me started about the timing of this whole thing coinciding with Melania’s new book, coming out after years of silence from her.
Shaddup!
