Rupert Murdoch Knees Trump in the Balls While He's Doubled Over Coughing Up Blood
The last thirty-six hours have not gone great for Donald Trump and despite being famously detached from reality, he seems to know it, if reports of him lashing out and blaming everyone around him for the midterm results are anything to go by.
Yet while a sad Trump could once turn to the warm embrace of Rupert Murdoch’s media empire to make him feel better about himself, that metaphorical bosom—or, more accurately, team of professional fluffers—is no longer.
In fact, it appears that an unofficial memo has gone out to Murdoch-owned properties that the ex-president is only to be referred to as a has-been loser who, at this point, couldn’t win an election for deputy director of the Mar-a-Lago Parks and Recreation Department.
Take The Wall Street Journal. On Wednesday, there were no fewer than six anti-Trump op-eds, with one of them literally headlined “Trump Is the Republican Party’s Biggest Loser.”
That piece, written by the Journal’s notoriously conservative editorial board, noted that Trump “has now flopped in 2018, 2020, 2021 and 2022,” and has “led Republicans into one political fiasco after another.” It suggests this week’s shellacking should be a wake-up call to the GOP “before 2024” (i.e., the party should oppose his much-teased third run for office).
Then there’s the New York Post. On Wednesday, Trump’s hometown tabloid ran a cover declaring his current archnemesis, Ron DeSantis, the future of the Republican Party. Apparently, though, that was just a warm-up for what they had in store today, which was a cover depicting Trump as the anthropomorphic egg Humpty Dumpty, naturally headlined “Trumpty Dumpty.”
The accompanying story referred to the 45th president as “Toxic Trump,” dubbed him “perhaps the most profound vote repellent in modern American history,” and told him to “scram.” Another piece, written by his one-time pal Piers Morgan, noted:
