Weekend Report: Trump is now sinking fast, taking GOP with him

He lashing out, suggests using military against Supreme Court, and is bringing back firing squads. Meanwhile, White House Correspondents Dinner shows moral bankruptcy of much of our media.

The numbers just keep coming in, and we may have reached the tipping point: Trump is at an all-time low of any president on the economy in over 50 years, including two of his whipping posts, Jimmy Carter and Joe Biden. It’s weighing down Republicans, as Americans see Democrats as better on the economy than Republicans for the first time since 2010. The GOP has benched the so-called “Save America” Act, meant to suppress voting, as there’s no way to pass it in the Senate, and their redistricting war is blowing up in their faces.

Trump is reacting by further unleashing his violent and racist impulses—and pandering to those who celebrate violence—cracking under the pressure of the Iran war, which he’s losing. In a Truth Social posting spree into the wee hours of the morning, he called India a “hellhole,” shared a post threatening the Supreme Court with military action, and made racist comments about Democrats. The administration also announced it’s bringing back the firing squad and the electric chair for those convicted of the death penalty in federal crimes.

Meanwhile, the corporate media is partying with Trump and the corrupt figures in his administration, celebrating his attending the annual White House Correspondents Dinner. Trump had refused to attend for his entire first term and last year as well because he couldn’t take being roasted by a comedian. So they’ve dropped that part—no joking about Dear Leader. Meanwhile, Steven Miller and Pete Hegseth will be at CBS’s table. Walter Kronkite and Edward R. Murrow are rolling in their graves.
