Short-fingered vulgarian charts new depths with his Truth Antisocial posts.

Trump, 80, Hurls Obscene Nickname at Rising Dem Star in Morning Meltdown (The Daily Beast)

The president clearly sees the potential 2028 candidate as a threat, so he’s lashing out with a schoolyard taunt.

Donald Trump spent his morning testing out a childish new nickname for rising Democratic star being hailed as the “next Obama.”

The 80-year-old president, who is currently in France for the G7 summit, lashed out at the potential 2028 candidate Sen. Jon Ossoff of Georgia as “Os(jerk!)off” in a Truth Social post at 8:50 a.m. local time.

Trump unveiled the nickname after his endorsed candidate, Rep. Mike Collins, defeated Derek Dooley in Tuesday’s Republican Senate runoff, setting up a showdown with Ossoff in November’s midterm election.

Nixon & his henchmen cursed in the Oval Office, & when Bush called Clinton & Gore bozos?
Trump has seriously lowered the level of political discourse in this country.

In the words of the Rolling Stones, he can't no satisfaction. No way he's getting serviced by Melanoma so he has to take matters into his own hands.

Ossoff: The president has been humiliated on the world stage. Many Americans are increasingly concerned about his stability and his capacity for the office. It’s deeply distressing to Americans to see a president so incompetent attempting and failing to represent the nation.

thug vomit spew as tough guy talk?…the problem Trump has with Ossoff is that he’s young and that he sees Trump not as the great man Trump himself purports to be but rather a toxic stain on America’s psyche…

The 77 million of our "friends", family, coworkers, neighbors, fellow parishioners and community that voted for this shitstain are the fucking problem.

In a sane world, they would be shunned from civil society.

An ignorant, fraudulent, cruel Nazi rapist fuckstick without 77 million voters, is just an ignorant, fraudulent, cruel rapist Nazi fuckstick.

An ignorant, fraudulent, cruel Nazi rapist fuckstick with 77 million voters is an indictment of society.

You think people are gonna go around calling him “jerk off”? It’s crude and not even funny. This dude has really fallen off since Little Marco and Lyin Ted.

It became clear to me during his first term that this would never happen and that the GOP would actually get worse. Look at the silly bastards they are electing to Congress.
