Donald Trump gives away that something very ugly is about to surface
Donald Trump spent Sunday tweeting things that were so over the top, even by his ludicrous standards, we had to check to make sure it wasn’t coming from a Twitter parody account. By the time he was finished accusing Alec Baldwin of “collusion” and vowing “retaliation” against NBC, it was clear that Trump knew something was very, very wrong.
The big question, of course, is what Donald Trump is suddenly trying to distract us from and/or take out his frustrations over. One of his tweets seemed to tip off that he thinks his kids are going to be indicted and arrested soon, but it’s more than that. No one is necessarily expecting Trump’s kids to be arrested today, yet Trump seems to be trying to distract from something that could indeed land today or tomorrow.
The easiest way for someone like Trump to know what’s coming next is when a major media outlet is about to expose something big in one of his scandals, and asks him if he wants to provide comment for the story. We’ve seen any number of instances of Trump lashing out in exceedingly over the top fashion, trying to create a distraction, so the bombshell story will have to compete for headline space with the controversy he’s created. It never seems to work out in his favor, yet the pattern is nonetheless there.
So here we are on Monday morning, and we’re left to wonder what Donald Trump knows is coming that we don’t. His criminal scandals are expanding to the point that they’re overlapping with each other, so we could end up seeing anything surface today. Stay tuned – this can’t possibly be good news for him.
