At the end of his strangest day yet, Donald Trump launches into bizarre late night wacko session
Did anything not go wrong for Donald Trump today? We learned that Robert Mueller has caught him conspiring with Paul Manafort against the investigation, caught Trump lying is his written answers, and caught Roger Stone calling Trump on the phone right after learning about an upcoming WikiLeaks dump. Also, speaking of dumps, Randy Credico just took one on Trump. In a predictably bizarre development, Trump ended up having on a late night… um… tirade? Meltdown? Ramble? There may not be a word for this one.
Here’s what Donald Trump tweeted just before midnight tonight: “So much happening with the now discredited Witch Hunt. This total Hoax will be studied for years!” Wait, what? This reads like a book report that a first grader wrote about a book he didn’t even read. This is all the fight that Trump has left in him? Did his handlers slip a sedative in his Coke, or for that matter, in his coke? You get that joke or you don’t, but whatever.
This is just plain weird. Donald Trump started the day by vowing to put all his political enemies in prison, and he ended the day by running and hiding from the traveling press pool, and then posting one of the meekest tweets of his tantrum-filled life. The biggest bullies are always the biggest cowards in the end.
Somewhere in there tonight, Donald Trump also posted a tweet plugging a new book written by his former White House adviser Sebastian Gorka, which is remarkable considering that Gorka is an alleged Nazi and confirmed white supremacist, and earlier this year there was an arrest warrant out for him in his native Hungary. This is how Trump is spending his potentially final days in office? Promoting Nazi books and marveling about how so much is happening? We give up. Tomorrow will be weirder.
