Donald Trump goes berserk and begins attacking Bill Barr as it all goes wrong for him
Just how bad have things gotten for Donald Trump in 2021? Because he’s banned from every major social media platform, he’s been reduced to getting his message out by begging the Rupert Murdoch-owned Wall Street Journal to run an op-Ed that he (or more likely his babysitters) wrote. Suffice it to say that the op-Ed isn’t doing Trump any favors.
Trump is now claiming that his own former Attorney General Bill Barr, and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, somehow conspired to rig Pennsylvania and steal the 2020 election from him. That’s right, Trump really is that far gone.
It’s a sign of absolute defeat on Donald Trump’s part that, having managed to score a rare space on the media bingo card in 2021 in the form of this WSJ op-Ed, he decided to waste it on incoherent conspiracy theories that even some of his own supporters are likely rolling their eyes at.
Donald Trump could have used this op-Ed opportunity to maybe try to put himself in the game for 2024 by writing something that might have appealed to voters in the middle, or something along those lines. Instead he totally wasted it while trying to convince himself that he didn’t really lose in 2020. It’s a sign that even Trump sees no way forward, and is reduced to trying to rewrite his own past in his head.
