OLDIES BUT GOODIES

Trump Self-Soothes With Months-Old Praise as Voters Turn on Him

The president dug up some of his favorite old memories.

Donald Trump has self-soothed on Truth Social by sharing an array of gushing compliments about him that were originally posted months ago.

The 79-year-old president dug back into his archives on Monday evening to find posts praising his State of the Union address on Feb. 24 this year.

The plaudits came from the likes of Fox News host Laura Ingraham, CNN conservative Scott Jennings, and alt-right conspiracy theorist Jack Posobiec.

The reheated acclaim had been cut from individual posts and assembled into documents, which were then posted on Truth Social.

Trump posted 19 separate posts praising him on Monday evening over four separate documents that compiled them all together.

Trump’s State of the Union speech saw him talk for just under two hours, breaking a record previously held by Bill Clinton.

His self-celebration, ahead of his 80th birthday next month, comes as Trump is struggling in the polls with November’s midterm elections looming.

“Well, honestly, what has been holding me back is I feel like the change that I was expecting from the president himself, I don’t feel in my everyday life, which is concerning to me,” Josephine told Faulkner.

“I still feel, obviously, that, you know, prices are very, very, very high. You know, if you’re going to the grocery store or just in general, because inflation still exists.”

“What matters most to the American people is having a Commander-in-Chief who takes decisive action to eliminate threats and keep them safe, which is exactly what President Trump did with the successful Operation Epic Fury,” White House spokesperson Davis Ingle said in a statement responding to the latest polling.
