In a Truth Social post, the president lashed out at journalist Katie Rogers after an article questioned whether he was slowing down

Donald Trump lashed out on Wednesday against a New York Times reporter, calling her “ugly inside and out” in his latest personal insult against female members of the media after last week calling another “piggy”.

In a Truth Social post, Trump criticized the newspaper for an article suggesting he was running low on energy in his 80th year, insisting he had “never worked so hard in my life”.

When you’re an orange, demented, chronically ill fat fuck, I bet even wiping your ass might feel like the hardest work you’ve done in your life.

    The next reporter needs to fucking forgo their question and either ask:

    • Why do you think calling a woman ugly is appropriate?
    • When was the last time you shit your pants, Sundowner?

    When he makes these insults I always look at what it was in response to as it’s nearly always a hard truth.

      Just read the article, apparently she asked if he was tired and able to keep working as president. Empirical evidence shows him dosing off on camera during meetings and him not sharing the raw health information. He claims he has never worked harder in his life which tells more about his work ethic than his work output.

      Remember during Covid when he was given a softball question for Trump to respond to the public who might be afraid. He did the same thing. He couldn’t even give a bland, Hollywood President level answer. He attacked the reporter asking it.

    I find it supremely funny that Trump is calling women ugly.

    Does he not own a mirror?

      People still believe he’s leaving power after his term is up?

      He was voted out last time and tried to launch an insurrection. He’s a lot more entrenched now.

          I’m not going to speculate on his health. I will, however, say that there was a conspiracy theory going around when Biden was elected that two years and one day into his term he’d mysteriously die so that the Dems could install the first female president who could be president for the next two years plus two terms.

          Now I’m not accusing anyone of anything, but I’ve noticed a lot of things that they accuse the Democrats of they are actually doing. Will we get president Vance in a year and change, who would still be eligible? Could he reverse enough of the publicly batshit insane policies (while leaving in the quietly batshit insane ones that fuck us over for decades) to win support from low information voters?

          I actually don’t believe this, but every time someone says Trump is gonna die I remember how adamant some Republicans were that iden would die and they’d have to deal with 10 years of being bossed around by a woman.

    Says the guy that, despite money, only managed to peak at a generous 5/10 for a very brief moment long before most of us were born.

    Even gussied up and in his 20s, he still always looked like Mr Toad.

    If trump was really this big of an issue and clearly he is then why is he kept in power

    Obviously rigged so the most incompetent more easily controlled elderly person gets to be president regardless if they prefer red or blue

    Can’t fathom the ins and outs but something rotten stinks and it is not coming from Denmark

      The folks behind Project 2025 realized that in order to be done most effectively, lots of laws would need to be broken, and the President would need to appropriate powers that aren’t really his. They created a perfect scenario to circumvent this:

      • a President who doesn’t give a shit about laws
      • a Supreme Court who says the President can break all the laws he wants to, and impeachment is the only remedy
      • a Congress who will not impeach the President for breaking the law, as long as he is doing it for reasons they approve of.

      So, the net effect is that he was put there, on purpose, to remake the Federal Government to be so small it can drown in the bathtub, in spite of laws to rhe contrary. He has the government by the pussy, abd Republicans let him do it.

      Even if Gavin wins in 2028, he will inherit an executive branch that is eviscerated and has no ability yo do anything. Moderates will tag him as “ineffective” and run to the next Republican in 2032. Then all bets are off…

    Every insult applies to him so completely that it really just seems like a textbook self defense mechanism, make fun of others for the things you’re insecure about so they can’t do the same to you.
