Donald Trump hasn’t done much television since he lost the election, instead preferring to let his lunatic lawyers handle the lost cause of pretending to contest the results. But now that Trump has truly figured out he’s on track for prison and bankruptcy, he’s panicking.

Trump called in to Maria Bartiromo’s show on Fox News today and said this about the election results: “They did dumps. They call them dumps. Big massive dumps. In Michigan, in Pennsylvania, all over” No really, he said this.

This prompted the hashtag #massivedumps to begin trending on Twitter, because no one could believe that Trump is so far gone, he went on TV and ranted about “massive dumps” without realizing what it was going to sound like.

Donald Trump’s problem at this point is that the lie about the election being rigged isn’t working for him, but he can’t just strategically move on to a new lie, because he has to cling to the narrative that he didn’t really lose. Trump is facing prison and bankruptcy once he’s out of office, meaning he’s been cornered, and is no longer in control of the narrative – and he’s not handling it well.
