Trump Hits New Height of Hypocrisy

October 4, 2023 Buck Banks

“Will Congressman Jamal Bowman be prosecuted and imprisoned for very dangerously pulling and setting off the main fire alarm system in order to stop a Congressional vote that was going on in D.C. His egregious act is covered on tape, a horrible display of nerve and criminality.”

— Donald Trump took to Truth Social to ask when Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) will be punished for pulling a House fire alarm.

No Mo Mojo?

Trump’s Mo Brooks endorsement is a no-go,
It’s been rescinded; Trump wants no mo’ Mo.
All Mo did was deny
Trump’s Big Lie,
But the question remains, is Tump losing his mojo?

Donald Trump, Pro-Vaxxer

Trump got his own jab in secret,
After a year of downplaying COVID.
Now he says it’s “great,”
But it’s too little too late,
And some anti-vaxx Trumpers might not live to regret it.

Science says climate change causes California’s fire woes.
Science says climate change has got us all in its throes.
We believe the science,
But Trump remains defiant.
His idiotic response is, “I don’t think science knows.”

Where Was God?

Despite his troubles, it don’t look like Trump is quittin’,
And he’ll probably manage to evade a fate that’s fittin’.
For this universe is flawed,
Because if there’d been a God,
When Trump raised that Bible at St. John’s, he woulda been smitten.

— President Trump, quoted by the New York Times, on why Sen. Elizabeth Warren failed to win the Democratic nomination.

“You know it’s interesting, as I’m saying this stuff — you know, ‘They want crime, they want chaos’ — I’m saying all this stuff and then I say, ‘Gee, now I sort of understand why they hate me for it.’”

A Rare Moment of Trumpian Self-Reflection

“You know it’s interesting, as I’m saying this stuff — you know, ‘They want crime, they want chaos’ — I’m saying all this stuff and then I say, ‘Gee, now I sort of understand why they hate me for it.’”

“As is so often the case, Donald Trump’s opponents are playing into his hands. This is exactly the kind of fight that Donald Trump loves, with his opponents carrying Mexican flags past burning cars.”

— Republican pollster Whit Ayres, quoted by the Wall Street Journal.

“Don’t kid yourself they know they are absolutely getting cooked politically with their terrible bill and rising prices, and they want to create a violent spectacle to feed their content machine. It’s time for the mainstream media to describe this authoritarian madness accurately.”

— Sen. Brian Schatz (D-HI), reacting on X to President Trump sending National Guard troops to Los Angeles.
