“Karoline Leavitt has spent these last 19 months putting Trump’s personal interests over her professional duties of the role she is serving in. And that has meant lying to the public for Trump’s benefit whenever she could.” Jen Psaki Former White House Press Secretary #karolineleavitt
“If you had to worry that your pilot in the cockpit was going to fall asleep during landing and take-off, you’d probably not fly on that airplane. So why is it acceptable for the President to have a really dramatic problem staying awake?” Dr Jonathan Reiner Cardiologist CNN #Trump
“Donald Trump’s narcissism has colonised so much of his brain, that together with his own amoral truth-agnostic salesmanship, truth and lies are barely real categories for him.” Andrew Egger The Bulwark 13 August 2026 @eggerdc.bsky.social #Trump
“The press have to get tougher with the President. This guy is a full-on liar and we have become a society anaesthetised to his lies.” Anthony Scaramucci ‘The Rest Is Politics US’ 13 August 2026 @restispoliticsus.bsky.social #Trump

“He’s become an uglier guy. Not because he’s got fat and paints his face with too much orange makeup - he’s just a mean guy. He’s someone who is plaintively mean.” Anthony Scaramucci ‘The Daily Beast Podcast’ 9 August 2026 @thedailybeast.bsky.social #Trump
“Everybody knows he’s an idiot. There’s nobody on the planet that doesn’t know he’s an idiot. He also knows he’s an idiot, but he won the Presidency.” Anthony Scaramucci ‘The Daily Beast Podcast’ 9 August 2026 @thedailybeast.bsky.social #Trump
“If it can happen to me, it can happen to anybody. Nobody is immune to this kind of lawlessness. It’s the kind of thing you think a dictator would do. This is not the land of the free or the home of the brave that I know.” Davey Hearn 8 August 2026 #washingtondc
In the latest twist in the Trump administration’s plagued renovation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, signs have now gone up blaming the problems on “years of neglect by previous administrations”. With Trump, when things go wrong, it’s always someone else’s fault. Always. #Trump
“He is never wrong. Not once in a ten year political career has there been that moment of acknowledging an error - the thing normal politicians encounter all the time. In Donald Trump’s mind, he is absolutely right all of the time.” Michael Wolff ‘Inside Trump’s Head’ 6 Aug 2026 #Trump
“Watch this deranged creature, this scumbag in the Oval Office behave like the lunatic psycho that he is! Seriously, this psychopath is truly a deranged lunatic!” Ben Meiselas’ no-holds-barred commentary following Trump’s presser today @meidastouch.com #Trump

“The two most glaring instances of Trump’s incompetence in managing foreign policy have been backing Russia over Ukraine and his war with Iran. It shouldn’t have been a surprise, the man had hardly ever been abroad before becoming President!” Michael Wolff ‘Inside Trump’s Head’ 30 July 2026 #Trump
“Donald Trump is the single stupidest public negotiator in the history of American government. The whole world knows it. Iran knows it.” Lawrence O'Donnell 28 July 2026 @lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social #Trump

“I was asked to write a short piece on something I was optimistic about. And I said I was optimistic about Donald Trump’s death. I think when that happens, people will breathe a big sigh of relief.” Michael Wolff ‘Inside Trump’s Head’ 28 July 2026 @michaelwolffnyc.bsky.social #Trump

“This isn’t a marriage. The President and First Lady just don’t live together. This is, at some level, binary and they aren’t together. This is the Charles and Diana of it all!” Michael Wolff ‘Inside Trump’s Head’ 22 July 2026 @michaelwolffnyc.bsky.social #Melania
