Donald Trump launches berserk attack on several Republican Senators after they turn against him
All you had to do was look at last night’s election results to understand that the Republican Party is in serious trouble heading into the midterms. The Democratic Party finished ten points ahead of the norm in Wisconsin, and fifteen points ahead of the norm in Florida. So it’s not surprising that several Republican Senators are now going against Trump on his tariffs against Canada. They care more about trying to hang onto their seats in 2026 than they do about pleasing Trump.
Then there’s Trump, whose dementia symptoms have taken him so far away from reality that he still doesn’t seem to think last night went poorly for him (instead he’s falsely claiming that the Republican margin of victory in Florida was larger than ever, while making no mention of the Wisconsin race). Now Trump is angrily attacking the Republican Senators who are going against him, in a bonkers rant for the ages.
Trump is now accusing Mitch McConnell, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, and Rand Paul, of helping the Democratic Party’s “wild and flagrant push to not penalize Canada for the sale, into our Country, of large amounts of Fentanyl, by Tariffing the value of this horrible and deadly drug in order to make it more costly to distribute and buy.” That’s right, Trump is still insisting that his idiotic tariffs are somehow about drugs, when in reality it’s simply because the word “tariff” is the only word left in Trump’s rotting brain.
Trump is even going so far as to urge his deranged supporters to “contact” these Republican Senators and presumably harass and threaten them for being “unbelievably disloyal.” So this is what it’s come to. Trump is barely two months in, and he’s already losing elections so badly that his own party is starting to inch away from him, and he has no recourse but to tell his goons to harass them. For Trump, this is what losing looks like.
