The problem for Trump’s base is that Trump keeps choosing himself over them.
The problem for Trump is that Trump’s base is more devoted to Q than to him.

Remember, Trump tried to pick Matt Gaetz — widely suspected of raping underage girls — as AG.
Then, Trump picked Pam Bondi — who reportedly killed Florida’s Trump University case in exchange for a $25,000 donation.
All for PRECISELY this moment — to cover up the Epstein case.

BREAKING - Trump gives Ghislaine Maxwell “limited immunity” to talk to administration officials
Are they letting Maxwell out of prison in exchange for lying that Trump was never part of Epstein’s sex trafficking?
Why else would govt talk to Maxwell - who’s already convicted?

I’ve prosecuted Trump. I’ve researched him. I’ve devoured every book and article on him.
He is DESPERATE — overreacting because the WSJ articles drew blood and are almost certainly true.
And now he’s botching everything. Suing WSJ? Terrible idea. Releasing Maxwell? Even worse.

Person A is a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, indicted under Espionage Act
Person B has zero criminal history ever
Newspaper says Person A may’ve been a pedophile rapist and covered it up — so Person A accuses Person B of treason
Gosh how do we decide whom to believe? 🤔

Dear Graduates:
Congrats! A few of you will become the next Elon Musk or Donald Trump.
The rest of you will do worse than your parents, with worse jobs and high costs - so the multi-billionaires can become even richer.
Or do you want to fight to change that?

Good time to remember:
The last time Trump was president, he ran up more than 25% of ALL the debt in the entire history of America
$7.8 TRILLION DOLLARS
And he’s about to do it again — so he and his billionaire friends, Musk and Bezos and Zuckerberg, can get tax cuts
