Donald Trump's former chief of staff, John Kelly, weighed in this week on why the former president almost seems celebratory.
"He's scared s---less," Kelly said. "This is the way he compensates for that. He gives people the appearance he doesn't care by doing this. For the first time in his life, it looks like he's being held accountable."
Trump didn't take that very well, so he lashed out at Kellly on his struggling Truth Social platform.
"John Kelly pretended to be a "tough guy," but was actually weak and ineffective, born with a VERY small "brain." He had a hard time functioning in a political world, and was truly an exhausted and beaten man when I fired him," Trump insisted. "In the end he was a "mummy" who sat in his office and stared at the ceiling - he was "shot." I'll never forget how his very nice wife told me that "John loves you, and respects you more than anyone, he will always say the BEST things about you." Oh well, so much for that!"
Trump also lashed out at the Lincoln Project.
"The Perverts and Misfits of the Lincoln Project have (barely!) gotten together again after their disgusting scandal, and pieced together some ads," he wrote. "They are running on fumes. Were they ever prosecuted for their crimes? Are their donors under investigation? Check it out!"
OK, Lumpy. This must be what he's upset about:
Why aren't Trump supporters embarrassed when he posts juvenile rants like that? And many of them are sticking by him even though he's facing 71 charges with more to come. That sophomoric septuagenarian is their hero. I will never understand that.
