Former President Donald Trump has denounced Vice President Kamala Harris’ nomination as the Democratic presidential candidate as “not fair,” escalating his rhetoric as new polls show Harris gaining substantial ground in key battleground states.
In a fiery statement on his social media platform Truth Social, Trump accused the Democratic Party of staging “the first ever ‘Coup’ in America.”
His outburst comes in the wake of President Joe Biden’s unexpected withdrawal from the 2024 race, which paved the way for Harris to become the Democratic nominee.
Trump is coup coup.
Ca-choo!
Dude absolutely just likes how buzzy the word coup is. Like, saying it’s not fair is one thing, even though it very clearly is. And even suggesting it should be against the rules is a valid opinion, even if it’s not based on facts.
But calling it a coup, not even an attempt at a coup, is silly. Even if she used a private army to storm the DNC to secure the nomination, it’s not a coup until she gets inaugurated.
Repubs deliberately accuse the other side of crimes and corruption they are actively doing, to muddy the waters.
The effect is to water down the word “coup.” Now, I wonder why Smelly Orange would want to do that?
You’re also seeing him use the word cheater recently. I noticed it front and center when he was trying to say that Harris’ rally audience was AI generated and called her a cheater… guess what he’s going to say come election time?
He’s already likely big into the AI cheating. The Trump bots were highly active yesterday on the only DNC feed on YouTube that had an unlocked chat.
And guess who will likely get caught trying to use AI to make crowd sizes look bigger
It’s just a key part of the DARVO thing. They accuse the opposition of whatever they are getting accused of. Russia was accused of trying to interfere with the election on his behalf? Now everything is “election interference”. People complain about Trump’s criminal cases? Keep talking about the “Biden crime family”, without evidence, as if it’s a real thing. And after they tried and failed on Jan 6 to stage a coup, now everything they don’t like is a “coup”.
It’s also the reason why “every accusation is a confession” with Republicans. If they come out with a bullshit accusation out of nowhere and start pushing it without evidence, you know its because they’ve either done the thing or are thinking about doing it.
After this latest round of bogus SC rulings, there was a lot of introspection into how the Court got this way. Someone pointed out that there was a book written during the Obama years accusing Democrats of undermining the Federal Judiciary to subert the rule of law – and the process in the book exactly matched what Trump and McConnell did. They wrote it out in plain sight – but since it was written as a baseless accusation, nobody paid attention.
Is it a ‘coup’ where the ‘deposed leader’ shows up and actively praises his own replacement (who was literally his deputy)?
Why not just go all the way and call it a ‘revolution?’ Sheesh.
They don’t understand or care what words mean. See: woke.
Why not just go all the way and call it a ‘revolution?’ Sheesh.
We can push harder. Mention how this is the great white replacement theory in action.

This guy is like a decrepit zoolander.
“If the enemy does something unexpected, they owe you for the resources you wasted planning for the wrong strategy” - Sun Tzu, The Art of Being an Upwards Failing Fuckup
“Strategy without tactics is fake news. Tactics without strategy is the deep state cabal.”
In all seriousness, you need to sell that book title idea.
Oh shit. Sun Tzu wrote a follow up? I think I need to check that book out.
there’s a trilogy, the third one is “oh shit nm war is hell”
War. War never changes.
there’s a trilogy, the third one is “oh shit nm war is hell”
Considering one of the great nuggets of wisdom in The Art of War is “Feed your troops ffs” that wouldn’t surprise me.
He then shared particular frustration with the sudden change in his opponent, suggesting that the Democrats had orchestrated Biden’s withdrawal to improve their chances.
Gosh, I don’t think anyone else has figured that out! This guy is hella smart.
If someone had said two months ago that the Democrats would orchestrate something to improve their chances, I wouldn’t have believed it
“It’s no fair the other guy knows how to play the game better than me”
“It’s not fair that we were too stupid to withhold all of our insulting bullshit and propaganda merch we spent a ton of time and money on BEFORE Joe Biden was the actual nominated candidate, so now we’re going to kick and scream about it because I’m pissy widdle baby.”
Maybe he’ll take his ball and go home…
Tim is doing pretty well…unfair!
A new Remington Research Group ® poll in Nebraska’s 2nd congressional district shows Kamala Harris leads Donald Trump in the district, 50% to 42%.
Jane Kleeb, the chair of the Nebraska Democratic Party, said she had seen at least one other poll recently that indicated Harris was leading outside of the margin of error.
Nebraska…
What’s next Utah?
Nebraska divides its electoral college votes by congressional district. The second district is “where all the people are,” and so traditionally votes blue.
Nebraska 2nd has voted Republican in every Presidental election except for Obama in 2008 and Biden in 2020.
Okay more blue than the rest of the state.
The fact that Trump can poll above 10%…
I don’t want to live on this planet anymore.
Trump accused the Democratic Party of staging “the first ever ‘Coup’ in America.”
LOL
There’s also the Wilmington insurrection , if you like reading about coups in the US
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilmington_massacre
The Wilmington insurrection of 1898, also known as the Wilmington massacre of 1898 or the Wilmington coup of 1898,[6] was a coup d’état and a massacre which was carried out by white supremacists in Wilmington, North Carolina, United States, on Thursday, November 10, 1898.[7] The white press in Wilmington originally described the event as a race riot caused by black people. In later study from the 20th century onward, the event has been characterized as a violent overthrow of a duly elected government by a group of white supremacists.[8][9]
Well he tried but he failed, so…
Adding “the first ever” is really telling on yourself there
Dementia DonOLD the weird racist rapist with 34 felonies is the biggest snowflake.
It’s unfair that this piece of shit wasn’t hanged for treason, or rotting in a jail cell for getting people killed from his insurrection, or for being a fucking rapist.
His COVID response killed millions of Americans.
Hundreds of thousands. It reached one million shortly after Biden took office.
I’m counting the excess deaths and attributing them to COVID.
By the time Biden took office, Trump’s damage was done: the virus was a hoax, the vaccine was a hoax, and no precautions needed to be taken because the virus would just disappear on its own. That’s all Trump’s handy work.
Trump’s response is still killing people. I know at least three people who used to be normal individuals and then they fell in with Trump, got super weird and cringe, and decided COVID was a hoax, and then they died of COVID.
I’m sorry to hear about that.
Trump’s whole plan was to fix the pandemic with a vaccine. His idiot followers are anti-vaccine, though, and not even Trump could convince them otherwise.
I do blame Trump for ignoring Fauci, discouraging mask-wearing, calling the virus a hoax at the beginning, and discouraging lockdowns. Oh, and holding rallies as usual, despite the risks.
Operation Warp Speed was one of the few things he got right, but we lost a lot of people in the process.
Thanks. They were already lost to me just by supporting Trump’s racist and other anti American rhetoric.
I thought any decent president should have been vaccinated on live television and plastered all over their social media. Trump did it in secret and wouldn’t even admit it to his rabid followers. Maybe more of them would still be alive if he had.
Can you even call it a response?
Sure you can - the response was “let it spread, it hits blue states more than red states”.
Well, that was wrong. It actually hit red states harder!
Because…Idiots.
Well that and COVID came into the country through blue states, California and New York especially. They looked at the initial data for how it was spreading and where, and concluded that that would stay the same. I guess, yeah, they’re just idiots that misinterpreted the data.
You know, are there any red states with significant global cities, major hubs for international commerce and people? Miami I guess. Maybe they would have gotten it first.
I am just thankful for his felonies. Removes all legal right he has to military funeral honors. He will likely still get them, but as a deployed veteran it warms my heart knowing they won’t be “real”.
Draft dodgers should never even get a flag.
I agree 100%. I didn’t know that a felony removed the legal right to military funeral honors. Thank you.
Fuck your feelings, donnie.
He’s such a damn cry baby. I’m astonished at the cognitive dissonance involved for his idiot cult who admires his “tough guy persona” to see past the incessant whining.
Most tough guys really are whiny little bitches.
The tough guy act is meant to hide deep insecurities.
I mean, look at it from his perspective. He pretty much had the election, which would save him from all the prosecutions etc. Now he has nothing, he can’t find and learn all new talking points against Kamala in time for the election. If he doesn’t get a miracle, he’s fucked.
Him winning involves taking a lot of swing states, most of which are traditionally red. This election is far over and every vote needs to be cast to defeat his worthless draft dodging ass and send him and his family to prison
Whiny “little” fatass bitch
