He is the president chosen by Americans. An overwhelming victory - a mandate for sweeping changes the people desire.

-15 ( +2 / -17 )

All of the failures are obviously taking a toll on his already fragile grip on reality...this rant sounds like one heard in kindergarten...

Speaking to an audience of prosecutors and law enforcement agents, Trump said broadcasters CNN and MSNBC and unidentified newspapers "literally write 97.6 percent bad about me" and "it has to stop. It has to be illegal."

He described the media outlets as "political arms of the Democrat party. And in my opinion they're really corrupt and they're illegal. What they do is illegal."

And there it is - a clear attack on the Constitution and freedom of speech...

So Fox and Newmaxx aren't "pollical arms of the Republican Party"?

What "law" have CNN and MSNBC broken?

Every day he sounds more and more like Putin and Xi...

“I’m innocent! I’m the victim of an unfair legal system!”

. . . Something most convicted felons will say about themselves.

U.S. President Donald Trump launched a bitter attack against the "illegal" media and his political enemies Friday, as a speech at the Department of Justice turned into a grievance-filled diatribe.

Great. Even more whining. I'm sure this will help his abysmal approval rating.

"Our predecessors turned the Department of Justice into the Department of Injustice,

Hilarious joke, Gutfeld would be proud.

Trump -- the first convicted felon to sit in the White House -- was meant to be talking about law and order at an organization supposed to be insulated from political pressure.

Yup, this convict has brought a veritable circus into the White House, filled with racists, conspiracy theorists, influencers, alcoholics, and people who are downright unqualified and ill-equipped to handle the running of a government. In fact, just the other day, I heard the new head of the Department of Education, Linda McMahon say that she's still "learning on the job". What? If you're a new employee, yes, you can learn on the job; not as the head of the department! You should have a clear understanding of what you should do!

But instead the 78-year-old Republican spent much of his time rehearsing complaints that predecessor Joe Biden had "weaponized" the department against him and pledging to "expose" his foes.

And so now Trump thinks he can weaponize the government against the American people by indiscriminately laying off tons of hardworking people? And go after people who are just following the rule of law and the rules laid forth in the Constitution?

But in his speech he vowed to go a step further and investigate his foes, saying: "We must be honest about the lies and abuses that have occurred within these walls."

Yes, like the lies that the insurrectionists that destroyed property and hurt people on Jan. 6th, were the ones attacked and that they should be considered heroes. And the lie Trump told that Haitians were eating pets. and the lie that Ukraine started the war. And the list goes on an on.

his abysmal approval rating.

its higher than at any time in his first term. I wouldn’t call 47.8 aggregate as “abysmal”

One month in, it is.

What is always with the gesture Trump is doing with his right hand?!

He always does it when he’s listening to and dancing to the Village People sing “YMCA”.

Seriously. Too much information.

President DJT should hit them so hard, until their echo vibrates the whole world. They started it, finish it

Well he promised, on his US 2024 campaign, Donald Trump pledged change on a unprecedented scale,

-2 ( +2 / -4 )

its higher than at any time in his first term.

It's the lowest approval rating for the start of a term of any US president ever. And still going down. It's abysmal.

More fascist by the day. It is simply incredible to see the facade of the empire falling down brick by brick.

He described the media outlets as "political arms of the Democrat party. And in my opinion they're really corrupt and they're illegal. What they do is illegal."

"literally write 97.6 percent bad about me" and "it has to stop. It has to be illegal.

Why? Just fight back.

Post unflattering pictures of their spouses, claim their parents were involved in assassinations or just make up baseless statistics on the spot.

Stop whining for once.
