Further proof, apparently, that Trump eats, sleeps, sh*ts, plays golf, watches TV, and probably not much else

Trump threw a Truth Social meltdown on Tuesday after his favorite cable news network dedicated airtime to a Democratic candidate.

Trump, 79, raged at Fox News after the network featured Tom Steyer, a California gubernatorial candidate he branded a “sleazebag.”

“Why is FoxNews showing SLEAZEBAG Tom Steyer, doing a big piece on him right now, and probably putting him ‘into play,’ instead of talking about Republican Candidates, and really good ones like Steve Hilton, and Republicans?” he wrote.

“How can a Republican expect to win that State, with their Mail In Voting and Rigged Elections, when you have FoxNews promoting the Democrats? Nobody cares about Tom Steyer, he is a LOSER, but Fox is making it possible for a guy like this to win. VOTE FOR STEVE HILTON, AND TURN CALIFORNIA AROUND!”

But yeah, that’s pretty accurate. The current White House is a Republican version of Tammany Hall, with Trump serving as a figurehead and…probably Stephen Miller in the Boss Tweed role. They know Trump is too stupid and dangerous to actually run anything, but they need a charismatic rabble rouser as their public face.
