Another Great Moment in Schadenfreude
Not that I take enjoyment from the suffering of others...but when it's the Trump family and its assorted leeches and hangers-on, an exception is warranted
It never ceases to amaze me that in times of amazing human suffering somebody says something that can be so utterly stupid.

It probably comes as no great surprise that The Former Guy, no intellectual or moral giant, sired a family of intellectual and moral short rounds. Given the example their father set for them, I suppose you can’t blame the Trump offspring for being such dunces and all-around morally deficient and miserable human beings.
Nor should we claim to be shocked that they’ve attracted partners who aren’t exactly shining examples of honesty and integrity. Lara Trump and Kimberly Guilfoyle are not women you’d want to turn your back on for fear of getting shivved.
With the head of the Trump crime family up to 91 total state and federal indictments, the Trump women must fear their gravy train is at risk of jumping the rails. The way they speak out and their lies can make one wonder what they’re capable of if they’re ever REALLY threatened.
We have reached the point in Trump Fourth Indictment Week where we start looking at the reactions of some Trump family members, and laughing. Because of Ivanka’s and Jared’s utter silence, we will choose to believe they do not care, they are cooperating, or both, therefore they will not be part of this blog post.
Instead, let’s LMAO at the very stupid dumb Trump boys’ spousal units.
Yeah, Javanka’s grifting and corruption are world-class, and it makes anything Don, Jr., Eric, Lara, and Kimberly are up to look like child’s play.
Or amateur hour. Because if there’s one thing Jared and Ivanka have over these four clowns, it’s how to do corruption- as in, go big or go home, losers. They’re laughing all the way to the bank.
Guilfoyle, who at one time seemed as if she had a brilliant career in front of her doing…well, something…is now heavily into self-owning. And proving she’s not the sharpest tool in the box.
Even when she thinks she’s protecting The Former Guy, she’s digging the hole deeper:
This is just absolutely ridiculous. And, John Gotti ... OK, can you imagine, RICO? OK. Violations. John Gotti never even had four indictments at once. There is no mob boss, let alone they use this to President Trump!
First, The Former Guy is no longer President, as difficult as that may be to comprehend. Second, he’s been the head of a crime family for decades. It’s just that no one in the family or the media has been willing to admit it
Looking back at his career, The Former Guy has been a walking, talking RICO case for decades.
And then there’s Lara Trump, Eric the Dumber’s wife, who attended the same Master’s class in lying, dissembling, and prevaricating former Trump Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany did.
Shockingly- well, not really- Lara Trump immediately played the “What about Hillary Clinton??” card. Despite the “email lady” being cleared of any wrongdoing long ago, The Former Guy and his assorted leeches and hangers-on have never let go of the “LOCK HER UP!!” mindset.
In America, though, one must first be found guilty of a crime to be sent to prison. And Sec. Clinton has never been tried, much less found guilty of a crime.
Not that this legal roadblock was about to stop Ms. Trump from pedaling her lies.
“I’ll tell you what! To see of all people Hillary Clinton out there having anything to say about anything, when she Bleach-Bitted 33,000 emails after she was told not to, cell phones with a hammer….
“We know what happened with Hillary Clinton, and yet she got absolutely no heat from anybody at the Department of Justice!”
Well, no, Ms. Trump, you don’t know what happened. Sec. Clinton was investigated, found to have done nothing criminal, and the matter was dropped. End of story.
“Bleach-Bitted 33,000 emails?” Seriously? That story is SO over and done, yet you still hang on to it because you have nothing else.
Get over yourself already. Your father-in-law’s in deep doo-doo, and your attempts to deflect attention and blame onto Hillary Clinton are beyond pathetic.
Oh, but there’s more:
“What they accused our campaign and my father-in-law of doing in 2016, conspiring somehow with RUSSIA to win an election. Hillary Clinton herself and the DNC actually did these things.”
I never cease to be amazed at how the members of this family have managed to brainwash themselves into ignoring the truth of what happened in 2016. There’s ample evidence showing that her father-in-law’s campaign colluded with Russia to influence the Presidential campaign in their favor. Whether she chooses to accept that or not doesn’t change the truth. Attempting to deflect blame onto Hillary Clinton and the DNC is pathetic.
The Senate Intelligence Committee determined sufficient evidence existed to conclude that Russia and the Trump campaign colluded during the 2016 campaign. That much has long been established. Lara Trump lying about it is a sad and feeble attempt to deflect attention from what’s already known to be the truth.
Who knows what the true motivations of Kimberly Guilfoyle and Lara Trump are? My guess is they’re genuinely fearful The Former Guy’s legal travails threaten the gravy train they’ve been riding, and so they’re lashing out in desperation.
It’s entirely possible that between the legal fees and the fines (and jail time) The Former Guy may face in the event of convictions, the family coffers may be drained, meaning that Guilfoyle and Lara Trump might have to get real jobs. I’m just spitballing here, but the Trump Empire may come crumbling down, something I don’t think too many of us on the Left will mourn for more than a nanosecond.
I find it challenging to gin up good feelings for a family whose ethos is firmly rooted in grifting, so anything that brings them down and forces them to earn an honest living is OK by me.
(**Snickers at the delicious possibility of a sentence using of using “Trump family” and “honest living” in the same sentence….**)
In the meantime, I’ll sit by a roaring fire as I toast some marshmallows, enjoy some Writer’s Tears, and bask in some well-deserved schadenfreude.
F**k ‘em all- every last one.
"F**k ‘em all- every last one," indeed, well put. You know, these nitwits should consider something profound, IF they actually believe what they're claiming. For argument's sake lets say that H. Clinton did get away with doing something illegal with her email. She didn't, but let's humor them. To the extent that their allegation is true then that would mean that Trump himself, his DOJ headed by Bill Barr, and the Republican led sub-committee that investigated H. Clinton are all complicit in her getting away with it. Think about it. These people were in power at the time, they had the tools of the government and the DOJ and if she was being criminal, then it means that the people they carry water for allowed her to do it. If they believe what they're claiming then by supporting those who let it happen, they too are complicit with Hillary not being charged for anything. That's the irony of these hyena's allegations, but of course their utter lack of self awareness prevents them from seeing it.
