Trump Has Monday Meltdown as GOP Bill Faces Backlash
Donald Trump is having a full-blown meltdown, and it's only Monday. I mean, the man is ranting and raving on social media like a lunatic. His big beautiful budget bill? Its polling at minus 29 in some surveys. Minus. Thats the worst Ive ever seen. And Trumps own approval ratings? Hitting historic lows. The lowest of any modern president, ever.
So what does Trump do? He lashes out at Forbes magazine. Yes, Forbes, because one of their reporters dared to write something critical of him. Youd think someone who claims nobody reads Forbes anymore wouldnt be so obsessed, but thats Trump. Screaming into the void about a writer who probably cant get a meaningful job in business while he himself is facing 91 felony counts. Projection much?
Hes throwing tantrums about the media, wishing entire publications were dead (because thats normal presidential behavior), and posting unhinged cartoons of himself dumping French fries to try to sell his billionaire tax cut bill. I wish I were making that up. Meanwhile, the bill he's pushing would rip Medicaid away from 15 million Americans, gut food assistance, slash education funding, and give handouts to the ultra-wealthy.
Oh, and while the rest of the world is preparing for the World Cup, British Columbia's Premier is basically saying, Hey FIFA, if the U.S. spirals into chaos under Trump again, well take your games. Think about how embarrassing that is. Other countries are openly planning for America to be too unstable to host an international event because of Trump. Thats how far weve fallen in the eyes of the world.
