Trump Denies Liz Cheney’s Claim He Wasn’t Eating After Jan. 6 — Insists He Was Actually Stuffing His Face: ‘I WAS ANGRY’
Former President Donald Trump strangely admitted to unflattering details about himself as he blasted former Congresswoman Liz Cheney over her new book.
After getting on Truth Social Sunday night to complain about Robert De Niro, Trump returned early in the morning to go off on “Crazy Liz Cheney, who suffers from Trump Derangement Syndrome at a level rarely seen before.” Trump was seething over Cheney’s memoir Oath and Honor, in which, she mocked McCarthy’s claims about why he visited Trump just weeks after his presidency ended in the disastrous fallout of January 6th.
“[Cheney] writes in her boring new book that Keven [sic] McCarthy said he came to Mar-a-Lago after the RIGGED election because, ‘the former president was depressed and not eating,'” Trump fumed. “That statement is not true. I was not depressed, I WAS ANGRY, and it was not that I was not eating, it was that I was eating too much. But that’s not why Keven McCarthy was there. He was at Mar-a-Lago to get my support, and to bring the Republican Party together — Only good intentions.”
Trump ended his rant by declaring “Liz Cheney, on the other hand, went on to lose her seat in Congress by the largest margin for a sitting Congressperson in the history of the U.S. She then worked with others on the J6 Committee to delete and destroy the evidence and findings of the committee.”
There’s no proof the January 6th Committee destroyed evidence with their investigation of the attack carried out by Trump’s supporters. Ever since Speaker Mike Johnson released new troves of footage from the riot, however, the ex-president and his allies have tried to obfuscate the details of the event to politically shield Trump from the blame for it.
Cheney’s book will be released tomorrow, and besides her disdain for McCarthy’s claims about Trump’s supposed depression, her book has drawn headlines for her dirt on more of Trump’s allies in Congress and elsewhere.
