Former President Donald Trump fired off a series of angry social media posts on Memorial Day in which he cast himself as one of the country’s greatest victims.
In a display more appropriate for Festivus – the Seinfeld-inspired Dec. 23 holiday in which family members gather in part for an airing of grievances – Trump “commemorated” American soldiers killed in the line of duty by lashing out at his political enemies.
The former president began his day on social media with a boilerplate post about Memorial Day that eventually gave way to furious missives about his personal tribulations.
“Happy Memorial Day to All, including the Human Scum that is working so hard to destroy our Once Great Country,” he wrote in a post reminiscent of a Memorial Day tweet in 2015 in which he said, “I would like to wish everyone, including all haters and losers (of which, sadly, there are many) a truly happy and enjoyable Memorial Day!”
Trump lashed out at writer E. Jean Carroll, who successfully sued Trump for sexual assault and defamation, as juries
In a subsequent post, the ex-president slammed the New York criminal case in which he faces 34 felony counts of falsifying business records:
Can you imagine, a President of the United States, who got more votes than any sitting President in the history of our Country, and who is also the Republican Nominee for President in the upcoming 2024 Election, and leading in all polls against the Democrat Nominee, Joe Biden, is tomorrow going before a Corrupt and Conflicted Democrat Appointed, Acting New York Judge, on a FAKE & MADE UP CASE by a Soros backed failed D.A., and the Judge himself, to see whether or not he will become a common criminal? According to virtually all Legal Scholars and Experts, THERE IS NO CRIME OR CASE against President Trump, and if there was it should have been brought seven years ago, not in the middle of his Campaign for President. Prosecutorial Misconduct. Election Interference!
In another, all-caps post, Trump railed against the fact that the prosecution gives its closing arguments last – as opposed to the defense:
WHY IS THE CORRUPT GOVERNMENT ALLOWED TO MAKE THE FINAL ARGUMENT IN THE CASE AGAINST ME? WHY CAN’T THE DEFENSE GO LAST? BIG ADVANTAGE, VERY UNFAIR. WITCH HUNT! DJT
In yet another
Could somebody please ask Judge Merchan, whatever happened to MARK POMERANTZ, the man Alvin Bragg was furious at for the things he did on this contrived and unconstitutional case, and why wasn’t he allowed to testify? Also, why did Judge Merchan not allow Brad Smith, the leading Election Law Expert in the Country, to testify. He would have ended the case quickly by explaining the Law and stating that President Trump did nothing wrong. Likewise Bob Costello, and all of his direct and irrefutable knowledge, why was he so horribly treated and completely shut down by the Conflicted Judge, and why were his Emails and Text Messages not allowed to be shown…And then, of course, there’s the BIGGEST EVENT OF THEM ALL, but I’m not allowed to talk about it because I’m under an illegal and unconstitutional GAG ORDER. This is the Biden White House at work. ELECTION INTERFERENCE!
There is no word yet on whether Trump will participate in the feats of strength.
