Donna Brazile

She pissed off the orange malignancy big time. He wants ABC to fire her because he is butt hurt.

'Pay Me More!!!’ Trump Explodes at ABC After Donna Brazile Tears Into His Record

President Donald Trump lashed out at ABC News late Sunday night, demanding the network “fire” contributor Donna Brazile and “more” compensation for criticism of him, referring to ABC’s 2024 defamation settlement.

The broadside came just hours after Brazile, the former DNC chair, appeared on ABC’s This Week to slam his axing of Secret Service protection from former Vice President Kamala Harris as “petty” and “vindictive.”

She also attacked Trump’s tariffs, which she said had “created a level of uncertainty that the American people can’t afford.”

Trump fired back by questioning why ABC employed her at all, before insisting the broadcaster owed him “more” after Brazile’s latest remarks:

Why does Fake News ABC’S This Week With George Slopadopolus have Low IQ “commentator” Donna Brazile on the show? Wasn’t she totally discredited when she gave Crooked Hillary Clinton the questions to a Debate??? Wasn’t she FIRED by Fake News CNN for so doing??? Why would ABC “News” hire such a dumb retread? Check out her disastrous interview with Megyn Kelly from years ago – A total Classic!!! Donna is dumb as a rock, and a liar besides. She, and Sloppy Chris Christie, should be fired from a highly discredited ABC Fake News. They just paid me $16,000,000 for “inaccurate” reporting, now they should pay me more!!! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DJT

The $16 million settlement in which ABC apologized and agreed to fund his presidential library came after network anchor George Stephanopoulos wrongly said he had been “found liable for rape” in the E. Jean Carroll case.

Just last week, Trump branded ABC and NBC “the most biased” networks in America and suggested the FCC revoke their broadcast licenses.


The Braintrust at ABC is about as nearsighted as it gets. Didn't they think they were going to get bullied again, sometime down the road after they paid him the $16 mil?

It's one of his sycophants trying to imitate the way he posts. It's easy to do. Newsom has mastered it.

The article is written in such a way that it implies pedo Trump was on the show or phoned in his nonsense. He did neither.

The fact that they are trying to cover up his failing health with posts, pictures from previous outings and short trips where he talks to no one who can be trusted, only reinforces the likelihood that he is on the brink of death.

Where are the unhinged holiday posts insulting everyone? Where are the giant paragraphs of one continuous sentence? Where are the all cap paragraph sentences that look like scrabble game tiles? Where are the misused words, poor punctuation and misspellings that always accompany his rants on Truth Social?

If they took his phone away, he must be in a coma because he would never stand for that.

Yes some of the posts I saw today clearly could not have been written by Trump.
He does not have the education, writing skills, or social acumen to write them.

They think they're so fucking clever.

You can occasionally detect which Trumpian shithead is the coauthor of his post. This one is definitely Steven Cheung. He's a nasty piece of work who would be the only one in the Trump orbit to go with the "ret*rd" -- "retread" connection. Please recall that among the words that hardcore MAGAs hate having restricted is "ret*rd." It's literally up there with the N-word for MAGA trash. I mean, they called other kids in their schools "ret*rds" for years and nothing ever happened, something something bike helmets something something participation trophies! There's a whole MAGA sub-discourse on "ret*rd" that's being played out here, and Cheung gets it to align with MAGAs deep hatred of black women. Mwuahhh. It's a chef's kiss of Cheungian trolling. Trump would approve, of course, but he did not come up with this.

People are taking this as if it's proof of pedo Trump's healthiness. It's only proof that someone posted something on his platform.

The way the posted article is written it implies that pedo Trump was on the show or phoned it in. It was only a text....it could be anyone. Pedo Trump is seriously ill and on the decline. This only proves they are keeping up the pretense that he's healthy.

He's a sickly pedo psycho with dementia and cardiovascular disease.

I notice that before pedo Trump disappeared from public view, he looked like he lost weight. Every person I knew who died of disease in old age lost their appetite several months before they died. Even my pets lost their appetites when they were near death.

... from the Spray-tanned Toad who thinks he owns the world. The cowards in the corner offices at ABC were absolute fools to cave to his threats. This petty tyrant's malicious attacks on anyone who disagrees with him are only going to multiply exponentially, and plumb new depths of psychotic savagery.
Evil thrives when good people do nothing. Or, in this instance, cave to outrageous demands when they could have crushed him in court. Now that he knows he can get away with this shit, it will never stop.
America's obituary will be written in blood. And fools like ABC, and all the rest that cowered in submission to his extortion, will be complicit in its demise.
To those who voted for this monster, are ya happy now? YOU are the most complicit of all, and you will pay dearly while he laughs at your suffering.

It is written to mimic his nasty style, but is too neat and clean. When he is posting during a tantrum it is easy to tell.

... and it's usually in all caps. But the message was most definitely his, and it was written on his behalf, so he bloody well owns it.
With all the online bitchin' he does, he would have to have a string of ghost writers just to keep up with all the trolling aimed at him, the poor little pussy-willow.

They always come back for more, more, more. Never satisfied, never content without complete capitulation and even then the demands continue.

Which is why I love what Governor Newsom is doing. Punch the bully in the nose. Again and again and again.

Refusing to comply and mocking the bully is Kryptonite.

Don't give Agent Orange respect. He doesn't deserve any.
