Wall Street Journal Fires Back at Trump


March 5, 2021 at 8:22 am EST By Taegan Goddard

The Wall Street Journal editorial board hit back at criticism from former President Donald Trump, saying he is “unhappy with us recognizing reality.”

From the editorial: “Former Presidents and Vice Presidents have told us how psychologically difficult the early months of lost political power can be. We can therefore empathize if former President Trump is frustrated these days, and perhaps that explains his attack on us Thursday over his role in the GOP’s loss of the Senate.”

More: “For someone who says we don’t matter, he sure spends a lot of time reading and responding to us. Thanks for the attention.”

I'm SICK of hearing about how Trump is wounded by the trauma of losing power. I can't ever recall a defeated POTUS or any politician except for Roy Moore whining and crying and pissing and moaning like Trump over losing an election. And he wasn't some nice guy: he was the meanest, nastiest most corrupt and criminal SOB ever to occupy the office. We are not talking about an FDR who occupied office for years and years. Trump was a (shitty) one-term, twice-impeached president who didn't even like the job Americans gave him.

He ate, watched TV and golfed. For a supposedly ruthless negotiator and businessman, he's really just nothing more than a gigantic cheese puff with a sad face drawn on it.
