National Review Confirms 'Startling' Report On Trump's Current Grasp Of Reality Ed Mazza ·Overnight Editor, HuffPost Fri, June 4, 2021, 1:01 AM A conservative writer has confirmed a report that former President Donald Trump is telling associates that he expects to be reinstalled as president this summer. “The scale of Trump’s delusion is quite startling,” National Review senior writer Charles C.W. Cooke wrote on the magazine’s website. Cooke said “an array of different sources” confirmed a report earlier this week by New York Times journalist Maggie Haberman, who said on Twitter that Trump has been sharing the popular new QAnon talking point. But Cooke went even further, saying Trump not only believes he’ll be put back into the Oval Office but also that he will be gifted with a Republican majority in the Senate, believing that two Democrats will be booted from Congress and replaced by the GOP candidates they defeated. He cautioned conservatives against downplaying or dismissing the report. “This is not merely an eccentric interpretation of the facts or an interesting foible, nor is it an irrelevant example of anguished post-presidency chatter,” he wrote. “It is a rejection of reality, a rejection of law, and, ultimately, a rejection of the entire system of American government.” Trump, he wrote, is “so unmoored from the real world that it is hard to know where to begin in attempting to explain him.” Lara Trump, who is married to Eric Trump, one of the former president’s three sons, mildly pushed back on the report on Fox News this week. “As far as I know, there are no plans for Donald Trump to be in the White House in August,” she said on Fox News but allowed: “Maybe there’s something I don’t know.” However, another close Trump ally claims it’s not only true... but that he’s the source of the idea. “If Trump is saying August, that is probably because he heard me say it publicly,” MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell told The Daily Beast. https://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/national-review-trump-reinstated-050129462.html GO RV, then BV -
Eric Trump Disgusted Biden Traveled Home, But His Dad Golfed 19 Times At This Point In Office Mary Papenfuss ·Trends Reporter, HuffPost Sun, March 28, 2021, 11:58 PM Eric Trump shook his head in disgust on Fox News on Sunday over President Joe Biden’s fifth trip to his Delaware home over the weekend since he’s been in office. “I don’t know where to begin,” he told Maria Bartiromo. “It’s heartbreaking to us. I know how much time and effort my father put into the job.” In fact, in the first 100 days of his presidency, Donald Trump went on golf outings 19 times (compared with a single time by Barack Obama in the same period of time). “Irony is dead,” quipped Vox journalist Aaron Rupar on Twitter. How hard Trump worked is also subject to debate. Sources inside the administration told the media while he was in office that the former president often came in late to work at the White House, left early and spent a significant amount of time watching Fox News. The non-working hours were referred to in his schedule as “executive time.” Trump played golf on his own properties, at taxpayer expense, 289 times during his presidency. The $151.5 million all of his golf trips cost the government is the equivalent of 379 years of presidential salary — which Trump and his supporters frequently boasted he didn’t take. Another surprise to viewers was that the former president “fixed” the immigration crisis, his son declared. “Illegal immigration was not a problem anymore,” Eric Trump added. He insisted the system was working “perfect” before Biden turned it to “absolute junk.” Undocumented migration to the U.S. has generally been on the decline for the past two decades, according to Customs and Border Protection data. The number of undocumented migrants apprehended crossing the border jumped to 860,000 during the Trump administration in 2019 — much higher than the peak of fewer than 560,000 apprehensions under Obama in 2009. The numbers are surging again now, which typically happens this season when crossings are easier, but have increased now because of a pent-up push stalled by the pandemic, The Washington Post reported.
