Trump Has A Middle-Of-The-Night Meltdown About... Well... So Many Things

Source: Huffpost

President Donald Trump fired off a series of wild messages on a number of topics during a flurry of activity on his Truth Social website in the wee hours of Thursday morning. Trump railed against a judge, attacked PBS and NPR, defended his tariffs and sent a warning to Europe and Canada, which were once key U.S. allies. And he did it all between 1 and 2 a.m. Eastern. Trump first attacked U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, who has ruled against him before and just picked up another case involving the president.

Trump ― who has said it should be "illegal" to criticize judges he appointed ― called it "statistically, IMPOSSIBLE" that Boasberg got another case, and accused him of having "Massive Trump Derangement Syndrome!" and "disqualifying family conflicts." Almost 20 minutes later, he attacked "completely biased" public broadcasters NPR and PBS as a "giant SCAM" and demanded that Congress cut funding to both.

Less than 10 minutes after that, he celebrated his impeding tariffs, which have triggered market volatility and fears of a recession. In an all-caps message, he called the date that those tariffs kick in "LIBERATION DAY IN AMERICA". Finally, at 1:50 a.m., he warned the European Union not to step in and help Canada in the face of the tariffs he's imposing on the country or he would impose even bigger tariffs on both.

I can only speculate. Trump is not a happy person. He always wants more and more. Selfishness is at his core of #Trumps being.

because they are jealous of successful people who got there by being good people and not cheating like they do. All bullies are like this, they know they don't have the patience to succeed by being good at something and working hard, they always want the shortcut and so they hate the people who can do what they can't.

It can sure buy him wives that will play the role, but he has to live knowing they never desire or want to even look at it.

He does NOT write any of the posts any more. I suggested that he does not even know what is being put out there, and I still believe that, but I was told that everything in his name is run by him. Perhaps they meant literally “run by,” as in “we flip through the screens in front of him while he dozes.” At any rate, he is not writing these. Period. Whether or not they are even his thoughts…who knows? He was completely left out of the recent group text debacle, he has no idea what Signal is, and said he had not been briefed on the Yemen attack. They are just ignoring him.

Justice matters.

Eloon, putin and thiel are running it. This is putin's revenge for supporting Ukraine and helping to collapse the Russian economy. He's going to collapse ours now and take away our freedom and way of life.

If he ever did get the euphemistic 3AM phone call, he wouldn't be able to answer it for at least an hour.

Historical note: On D-Day, the 6th of June, 1944 Hitler was not available for several hours because he was in bed after taking sleep drugs.

History doesn't repeat, but it does rhyme.

Trump is on some kind of calming meds during the day. When you see him answering questions or making statements on the oval office, it's still mostly bs, but he's not wound up and combative as before. However, when he's up in the middle of the night, that's when the crazed Trump shows up.

He must wake up each day wondering 'what can I break now, what insults can I sling and who can I humiliate?' In all these years, he has added nothing worthwhile to this planet. Not one thing.

Trump found dead on toilet, phone in hand, apparent cardiac arrest. Vance and Musk fled the country for Moscow and Johnson cannot be confirmed to be in the United States at this time...
