Back to EpisodesTrump betrayed the man who tried to name an Interstate after him
Description
The President of the United States woke up early this morning for his third "annual" physical exam in just the past 13 months. Before leaving the White House for Walter Reed, Donald Trump posted more than 20 times on Truth Social. But one post stood out from the rest because it crossed into something darker. Donald Trump shared an image of himself holding a shotgun as if he were personally threatening members of his own political party, whom he believes are not loyal enough to him.
Based on the events of 5-26-2026
The Breakdown:
- Trump posted an image of himself sitting on top of a rhinoceros holding a shotgun beside giant letters reading "NO RINOS!"
- Why this was the President of the United States using violent imagery to target members of his own party
- Senator John Cornyn, a four-term Republican first elected in 2002, lost his Texas primary runoff to Trump-endorsed Ken Paxton
- Cornyn even introduced legislation to name a 1,800-mile highway "Trump Interstate" trying to woo a Trump endorsement
- Why Trump knifed him: Cornyn "was not supportive of me when times were tough"
- Cornyn's own warning: "We will have an Election Day massacre" if Paxton is at the top of the ticket
- Paxton was impeached by his own GOP-dominated state legislature in 2023 on sixteen counts
- Why Trump will burn his own house down to settle a score
- Representative Thomas Massie lost his Kentucky primary just a week ago, after the most expensive House primary in American history at more than $32 million
- Massie's crime: pushing to release the Epstein files and voting against the budget bill
- Trump's pattern from his first term: Jeff Sessions, William Barr, Mike Pence, all loyal until loyalty required betraying the Constitution
- Even Elon Musk, who spent close to $300 million to put Trump back in office, discarded the moment he criticized the spending bill
- Trump's third "annual" physical in roughly 13 months and the announcement that everything checked out "PERFECTLY"
- Why a man turning 80 next month cannot tolerate even the appearance of weakness
- How the doctors covering for him are no different from Cornyn
- The Trump Mobile T1 phone collapse: 59 million dollars taken in deposits, "Made in the USA" promise quietly vanished, the few phones sent out appear to be relabeled overstock
- The promotional material even shows the wrong number of stripes on the American flag printed on the device
- How the same supporters being scammed are losing their healthcare under the largest Medicaid cuts in history
- South Carolina's Republican-led state Senate killed Trump's redistricting push to erase Jim Clyburn's majority-Black district
- Republican state Senator Richard Cash: "Neither my conscience nor my common sense will allow me to stop an election that is already begun"
- More than 32,000 South Carolinians cast ballots on day one of early voting, and that turnout gave Republicans the spine to stand up
On the same day Trump posted a meme about threatening disloyal Republicans, members of his own party did the brave thing so many others before them failed to do, and his people called it betrayal. But it was not betrayal. It was conscience. The very Republicans Trump despises most, the ones he threatened with violence just this morning, are the same people who just proved he can be stopped.
