President Donald Trump he was up posting before 6 a.m. on Thursday, replying to accusations of corruption will accusations against the Democratic Party. He then issued an ominous warning.
"The Democrat[ic] Party, lead by one of the most Corrupt and anti-American groups of political leaders and hacks in the history of our Country, and even the World, is doing everything in their power to get away from MASSIVE BLUE STATE CORRUPTION by saying, over and over again, that the Trump Administration is corrupt," Trump wrote. "It is a sound bite that they viciously use, over and over again, in order to nullify the TREMENDOUS [and] UNPRECEDENTED theft that has taken place in our Blue States - Minnesota, California, and others, all over the U.S.A. I, perhaps foolishly because the Fake News refuses to write about it, including in my First Term, don’t even take a Salary, worth Millions of Dollars. I am the only President to have done so! In any event, THE DEMOCRATS ARE CORRUPT AND EVIL, and I am the exact opposite! Fight hard, Republicans, or you won’t have a Country left! President DONALD J. TRUMP."
For about a week, Trump appeared shell-shocked watching the returns, and on Wednesday evening, Scott Colom became the first Black U.S. Senator for Mississippi since 1874. He will be only the third Black senator the state has had despite having the highest percentage of its Black population (37.9 percent) in the U.S.
It was just last week that Trump said he was “absolutely willing” to accept the results of the 2026 election, but that didn't take long to change.
On Monday, he posted, “Does anybody really believe that this ‘Election’ was honest."
He then renewed his efforts to sow doubt among all of the MAGA supporters who have been shocked seeing the staggering wins on Nov. 3. Trump's problem, however, is that he can only dip into that well once before he becomes a joke.
Trump ranted, “How could the [p]olls be so wrong[?] Some early voting ‘dumps’ were so large that it was impossible to win, no matter how many people went to vote. It’s all about the machines, which are far more important than the voter!”
In an interview with Fox News' Bret Baier on the evening of Nov. 3, the host made it clear to Trump that the polls weren't off; they just undercounted how big Democrats would win.
Trump's comment, "Fight hard, Republicans, or you won’t have a Country left!” is a similar quote from his comments in 2020. It's leaving some to wonder if this is the start of another attempted insurrection.
It prompted a lot of support from his MAGA base.
One MAGA fan commented, "Pull the Insurrection Act or just hand over the country to the CCP/Israel and step down," tagging some of Trump's top officials.
A similar comment came from someone fearful about there being Muslim members of Congress. They think that Trump should deploy the Insurrection Act and use it against these Democrats.
One of Trump's biggest followers, who goes by @CatTurd, has been promoting this talk as well, claiming on Wednesday night, "The Democrats cheated big time in the elections and are trying to take control of our country. Recognize what's going on right now. And fight fight fight."
Another Trump supporter celebrated Trump's post, saying, "BOOM: President Trump just went SCORCHED EARTH on Democrats,"
Meanwhile, others are telling Trump to sit down.
"If there's massive corruption in blue states, investigate it. If there's corruption in the White House, investigate that too. But declaring Democrats evil and yourself the exact opposite isn't evidence of innocence. That's a hell of a sales pitch, not accountability. Americans deserve facts, not another all-caps meltdown," said one man who describes himself as "politically homeless."
One Democratic poster asked, "Trying to spur another insurrection?"
