Mary Trump's extensive body of work comes down to ONE WORD in her current Substack article that SUMS IT ALL UP.

I PUT THE ONE WORD IN BOLD FOR YOU, BELOW.

"LITTLE."

Every time Trump pulls shit like this, he thinks it's a display of power, rather than driving home what a wretched LITTLE "man" he is.


The Good in Us by Mary L. Trump

No Such Thing as Worst
The off-the-rails rants of a jealous demagogue diminish all of us

Congratulations, Donald. Once again, you have gone out of your way to prove, to anyone who doesn’t already know, that you are a depraved, deviant, damaged little man who cannot bear the thought that there are people in this world who are talented, valued, and loved—three things you are not. You cannot stomach the thought that anybody else, for any reason, would take the spotlight. And who are you without that? The most fitting punishment for you would be a mirrorless room without access to the internet or sycophants who continue to believe or pretend to believe that anything you do or say matters. You are beyond redemption.

In the wake of the horrific murders of the universally beloved Rob and Michele Reiner, Donald chose to prop himself up by demeaning them. The weapon of the truly weak and pathetic, Donald proves once and for all that he is capable of the lowest low. There is no worst, there is only worse. Donald’s reaction to this tragedy was simply more of the same.

The qualities that Rob and Michele Reiner embodied—their creativity, artistry, empathy, compassion, kindness, generosity, their understanding of the human condition, their true desire to make the world a better place—are beyond Donald. These are attributes that he could never embody. Instead, he chooses pettiness, jealousy, and cruelty. He proved that definitively when he posted this this morning:

*****

He wrote this before we knew anything beyond the fact that Rob and Michele Reiner had been found dead in their home. Who responds this way? Only the thirstiest, weakest, and most depraved of men. Because Donald is irredeemably himself, he did not retract this statement; he didn’t apologize or write something decent and appropriate. In fact, he doubled down. This is what he had to say in the Oval Office this afternoon.

Trump claims he must hold his balls in a tacky $300 million gold ballroom for "UNEXPLAINED NATIONAL SECURITY REASONS"

YES, I made a pun in the subject line, and yes, I know both of Trump's balls would fit in a shot glass with room to spare.



Trump administration says White House ballroom construction is a matter of national security

https://apnews.com/article/trump-white-house-ballroom-national-security-de9756118bbfca8f40af9cf89db6af5b

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration said in a court filing Monday that the president’s White House ballroom construction project must continue for unexplained national security reasons and because a preservationists’ organization that wants it stopped has no standing to sue.

The filing was in response to a lawsuit filed last Friday by the National Trust for Historic Preservation asking a federal judge to halt President Donald Trump’s project until it goes through multiple independent reviews and a public comment period and wins approval from Congress.

The administration’s 36-page filing included a declaration from Matthew C. Quinn, deputy director of the U.S. Secret Service, the agency responsible for the security of the president and other high-ranking officials, that said more work on the site of the former White House East Wing is still needed to meet the agency’s “safety and security requirements.” The filing did not explain the specific national security concerns; the administration has offered to share classified details with the judge in a private, in-person setting without the plaintiffs present.

Pee Wee German's wife calls a cartoon of him "an abhorrent image meant to incite violence" and an act of "terror"

Katie Miller, the wife of White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, melted down Monday over a cartoon caricature of her husband that she decried as an “abhorrent image” that could perpetuate “left-wing terror.”

The caricature was drawn by illustrator and filmmaker Matt Muhurin. It was used in an analysis published Monday in The New Republic, highlighting the irony of Stephen Miller’s fierce “anti-immigrant project” given his Jewish ancestors who fled Tsarist Russia to avoid state-sanctioned antisemitic discrimination.

“This is an abhorrent image meant to incite violence,” Katie Miller wrote Monday in a social media post on X. “This is your far-left who I was confidently told was trying to bring down the hateful rhetoric. What a joke these people are. This is how Left-Wing Terror is perpetuated.”

The illustration depicts Stephen Miller with an enlarged head, blank stare, and with several tentacles being used to separate migrants from their families, a clear reference to his deep involvement in the Trump administration’s aggressive deportation policy that has sent migrants to notoriously dangerous and deadly prisons abroad and targeted those with no criminal history outside of their immigration status.

Kushner drops plan to build a Trump-branded hotel on a Belgrade site bombed by NATO after "severe backlash"

Following protests and indictments, Kushner and his private equity group, Affinity Partners, rolled back plans to redevelop a Belgrade site bombed by NATO as a Trump-branded project, The Wall Street Journal reported.

Plans for a trio of towers in the country were plagued by a series of predicaments, including a special prosecutor indicting a cabinet minister and three others in connection with the plan.

“Because meaningful projects should unite rather than divide, and out of respect for the people of Serbia and the City of Belgrade, we are withdrawing our application and stepping aside at this time,” a spokesperson for Kusher's company said.

The move was considered an "abrupt end to an increasingly controversial project that Kushner—now both a public figure and a prolific dealmaker—has worked on for more than two years," The Journal reported.

MAGAt skidmark Jack Posobiec brags the right is better than celebrating Reiner death. Then Trump posted. OOOPSIE!

"You won't see people on the right celebrating the horrific murder of Rob Reiner and his wife," Posobiec wrote on X Sunday night. "Compare to the Left's reaction to Charlie Kirk's murder."

"Check out your President, Jackie Poo," one user wrote after President Donald Trump attacked Reiner.

Posobiec argued that Trump's remarks about the death of Reiner and his wife didn't count.

"Where is the celebration in Trump's post? He isn't celebrating, he is warning," he wrote.

"When It Happens"...Trump's Reiner post generates speculation over the eventual response to his dirt nap

'When it happens': Trump post ignites chatter about president's own mortality

https://www.rawstory.com/trump-when-it-happens/

"I think we should all commit ourselves to, at minimum, a national 3-day party When It Happens," pledged podcaster Lauren. "One bottle of champagne in the back of your closet is no longer adequate. be prepared."

"Zero grace when It Happens. Zero decorum given," said lawyer Chris Jackson. "I’m high-fiving strangers on the street."

"I do not think the right is remotely prepared for the scale of celebration that we’ll see When It Happens," posted popular Bluesky user Micah. "I know a bunch of them are going to try to run the Kirk playbook and good luck getting more than half the country fired overnight."

"There’ll be fireworks in countries they’ve never heard of," added Bluesky user Maven.

I am really, really, really looking forward to Pee Wee German's Alexander "I'M IN CHARGE HERE" Haig moment.

I think The Beatles' "Ticket To Ride" is really appropriate here. You know the true backstory of that song, right? Lennon wrote it about sex industry workers going for their venereal disease checkups and getting a clean bill of health...their "Ticket to Ride."

And the disease that is Stephen Miller got HIS ticket to ride when Trump was elected.

Miller is never, never, NEVER going to have an opportunity like this again. And I don't care if Peter Thiel IS "successful" in "grooming' Vance. Vance will NEVER attract the blind cult loyalty that the MAGAts show to Trump.

But I think Miller KNOWS this. And when Fat Rapin' Grampy hits the deck for the last time, I believe Miller will PANIC, and we WILL get a Haig moment.

This fucking rapist felon pig really doesn't have a "bottom."

When it's time for his dirt nap, all bets are off in the "civility" arena.

House GOP "Healthcare Proposal" is not "likely to go anywhere."

Last-ditch and likely to fail: The House GOP is finally ready to act on health care
House Republicans are getting ready to vote on health care this week. Their proposal isn't likely to go anywhere.

https://www.ms.now/news/house-gop-health-care-obamacare-subsidies-fail

Dec. 15, 2025, 5:00 AM EST
By Mychael Schnell and Kevin Frey

After months of different deadlines to extend Obamacare subsidies, Congress is finally confronting its last real chance to renew the enhanced tax credits before premiums spike for millions of Americans on Jan. 1.

Lawmakers in both chambers return Monday for their final legislative week of the year, and House Republicans are preparing their first attempt to address the looming deadline.

It’s likely to fail.

Sometime this week, the House will vote on a GOP-crafted health care package that — notably but unsurprisingly — doesn’t include any extension of the enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies.
