Donald Trump just set some kind of record for humiliation
Since taking office, Donald Trump has managed to achieve one new low after another. He’s set new lows when it comes to unpopularity, ineptness, criminality, and outright evil. But this week Trump managed to pull off something new entirely – and in the process he must have set some kind of record.
What do Jimmy Carter, the Dalai Lama, and Ozzy Osbourne have in common? It sounds like the setup to a joke. But the only joke here is Donald Trump, because all three of them have condemned Trump in the past forty-eight hours. That’s a respected American leader, a respected Tibetan leader, and Black Sabbath’s leader all on the same page when it comes to just how awful Trump is. But that’s just the half of it.
Earlier this week USA soccer star Megan Rapinoe slammed Donald Trump. After he tried to fire back but tagged the wrong person, Trump then found himself also being slammed by someone named Megan Rapino. Trump is now reduced to accidentally picking fights with random people, and then losing those fights too. Then, just to rub it in, Megan Rapinoe (the one who plays soccer) went and scored all of Team USA’s goals in a key victory on Friday.
