Trump woke up today and launched several unhinged attacks against Mueller, Comey, and McCabe

It’s getting to him. He sits seething in front of the TV, phone at the ready to tweet out about whatever the next paranoid resentment that Fox News presents him with as the Mueller investigation gets closer and closer to the truth about what he’s done.

The truth… it’s been so long since he’s been anywhere near it that he probably wouldn’t recognize it if it walked right up to him and stared him in the face. PolitiFact only rates 16% of his statements as true or mostly true. It takes nine pages on PolitiFact to list the 84% of his statements that aren’t.

He even lies under oath. It’s gotten to the point where he publicly brags about lying to the leaders of our closest allies.

This morning President Trump had the audacity to accuse someone else of lying… because Fox & Friends told him so.

Add your name to tell Trump: We don’t need your fascist military parade in the United States of America!

“Wow.” Is that an expression of admiration from an expert liar commenting on the skill of a fellow prevaricator? Or is it that lying is such an integral part of his being that it is the only lens with which he can observe and interpret the world around him?

As Trump escalates his fierce battle with the FBI, his fight against law and order, one can see his panicked reaction to the latest disclosures regarding Russian collusion, his illicit affair with an erotic thespian, his crumbling administration, his being forced to choose between the pressure to impose sanctions on Russia over their murderous use of banned chemical weapons on the streets of London or risk alienating his puppet master in the Kremlin, and the weight of all of his own lies piled on top of one another.

No, you can’t, you moronic, deceptive dotard. Why do you even try to get people to believe you over people who have reputations for intelligence and integrity developed over years of dedicated government service when your reputation as a thieving conman who cheats on your wives, won’t reveal your tax returns, and acts like laws simply don’t apply to you nullifies every utterance that escapes from between your lying lips?

Why do you continue to politicize law enforcement agencies? Why do you believe that a judge of Mexican ancestry can’t deliver a fair verdict in a case against you? Why do you fail to realize that not everyone is as crooked and mendacious as you yourself are?

Comey is a Republican. Mueller is a Republican. They both swore oaths to uphold the law without prejudice. So did Trump, not that oaths mean anything to him.

The president doth protest too much. Anyone who believes a word he says deserves the bridge he is selling them. Just don’t be surprised when the bridge collapses. We can only hope that the collateral damage won’t be as bad as fatalities from the recent Florida disaster. Given Trump’s record, however, it will most likely be much, much worse.
