Donald Trump went from being a reality show star to being a president to becoming a failed blogger. The twice-impeached one-term president started holding rallies again, but the one in Ohio on Saturday reportedly “fell flat.” Trump supporters were seen in a clip walking out of the rally early while the former president was still speaking. And that’s understandable since he spoke for 90 minutes to air his grievances once again.
Trump hasn’t seemed to find a place in life since leaving the White House. Typically, presidents start writing books once they leave office, but that doesn’t look like it will happen for Donald Trump. So, the former president, who has been deplatformed on numerous social sites, shouldn’t really lash out at his critics over ratings. But he went there anyway.
After Trump lashed out at CNN over the network’s ratings and attacked Jake Tapper, claiming that he is in “free fall,” the CNN host clapped back.
If I had incited and inspired a deadly insurrection and attempt to undo American democracy I might not be out there bragging about how many viewers it had. On any channel.
But maybe that’s just me, I’m a different breed of cat. https://t.co/6tE6pC3B74

Imagine bragging that you had people so worried about the world on a daily basis they couldn’t stop hypervigilantly watching the news

Or maybe Biden fixed Covid so we’re all back at the office and going out at night?

Who gets an extra special insult? The black woman. Maybe it’s a badge of honor for @JoyAnnReid but it makes me sick.

Also, isn’t it pretty normal for ratings to drop in non-election years?

I watched the news with hypervigilance when that former guy was in charge. NOT because he was interesting! I was afraid that several days of his disasters and deflection might be more than a person could handle.

Exactly! He can’t comprehend that some of us like calm competence over chaos.

Trump will never change. He’s a shameful liar with a penchant for cruelty.
