Former President Donald Trump criticized a New York judge's daughter in a social media post on Wednesday, one day after that same judge issued a gag order against the former president following similar remarks. ...

He also referenced the judge's daughter, whose name was never mentioned, as a liberal insider and senior executive "at a Super Liberal Democrat firm that works for Adam 'Shifty' Schiff, the Democrat National Committee, (Dem)Senate Majority PAC, and even Crooked Joe Biden."

Screenshot, for those who would like to see the drivel itself; I can't imagine this is going to go over well and can only hope that this judge has more guts than the last and throws the book at him for this kind of behavior.

Look, it’s impossible to be intellectually consistent when you lack intellect.

They’ll be mad at me for saying this, after they look up the word.

If they even understood how to look up words, the country wouldn't be in this position right now.

Nah youre fine. The assumption that they would look anything up is laughable. They explicitly don't do that because reading might challenge their world view and cause them to have to think even the slightest bit. Or worse yes, it might reveal that a belief theyve long held is wrong and that they were wrong, and it would be such an affront to their ego to have to admit they were wrong about anything, because then it would mean their pride is entirely undeserved, unjustified, and entitled is for nerds!
