Original Story: ‘Horror show’: Trump still can’t restrain himself when lashing out at women in media – MS NOW

Orange Man Still Mad Online; Shocker.

Okay, folks, gather ’round the digital water cooler, because we’ve got a real head-scratcher on our hands. Turns out, Donald Trump, the guy who *definitely* isn’t obsessed with what the media says about him, is… wait for it… still obsessively rage-tweeting about women in the media. Groundbreaking stuff, I know. MS NOW (presumably MSNBC, because who has time for full names anymore?) reports that Trump is still, shall we say, *struggling* to contain his… unique… brand of commentary when it comes to female journalists. It’s like watching a toddler try to build a Lego castle after mainlining Pixy Stix. Messy, loud, and ultimately, achieving absolutely nothing of value. Except maybe clicks. Which, let’s be honest, is probably the point.

Déjà Vu All Over Again (and Again, and Again…)

Remember 2016? Ah, simpler times. Back then, Trump was just a reality TV star with a penchant for saying the quiet part out loud. He famously went after Megyn Kelly after a Fox News debate, claiming she had “blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her… wherever.” Classy. Real classy. And now, here we are, years later, and the playbook is still the same. Different target, same tired insults. It’s like watching reruns of “Friends” – comforting in its familiarity, but also deeply, deeply depressing when you realize how little has changed. Except now, instead of Chandler making sarcastic jokes, we’ve got… well, you know.

Seriously, you’d think after, oh, I don’t know, *decades* in the public eye, someone might learn a new rhetorical strategy. But no. It’s the same old “attack, deflect, deny” routine, just with a slightly different wig and a whole lot more exclamation points. I guess if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, right? Even if “it” is a broken record skipping on repeat.

The Loyalty Test: Are You With Me, Or Against Me?

This isn’t just about Trump being rude (though, let’s be clear, he is). It’s about sending a clear message: loyalty is paramount. If you’re not on Team Trump, you’re the enemy. And the enemy, in his world, deserves to be publicly humiliated. This isn’t exactly a new tactic, mind you. Authoritarian regimes have been using it for centuries. But seeing it play out in real-time, on Twitter (or X, or whatever Elon’s calling it this week), is still… unsettling. It’s a constant reminder that the stakes are higher than just political disagreements. It’s about power, control, and the willingness to weaponize personal attacks to silence dissent.

A Brief History of Trump vs. Women (in Media): A Highlight Reel of Awkwardness

• Megyn Kelly (2016): As mentioned above, the infamous “blood coming out of her eyes” comment. A true classic of the genre.
• Rosie O’Donnell (Throughout the 2000s): Their feud was legendary, filled with name-calling, insults, and enough petty drama to fuel a reality show for years.
• Mika Brzezinski (2017): Trump tweeted about Brzezinski’s “low I.Q.” and claimed she was “bleeding badly from a facelift.” Because, you know, that’s appropriate behavior for a sitting president.
• And countless others… The list goes on, and on, and on. It’s a regular who’s who of female journalists who dared to challenge or criticize Trump.

The Irony is Delicious (and Slightly Burned)

The real kicker here is that Trump consistently claims to be the victim of “fake news” and unfair media coverage. He rails against the “liberal media elite” and accuses journalists of being biased and dishonest. And yet, he spends an inordinate amount of time obsessing over what they say about him and lashing out in the most childish, predictable ways imaginable. It’s like a pyromaniac complaining about the smell of smoke. Or a toddler throwing a tantrum because he’s not getting enough attention. Actually, scratch that. It’s exactly like a toddler throwing a tantrum because he’s not getting enough attention.

The dude who said in 2018, “I never said anything bad about women,” clearly has a very specific definition of “bad.” One that conveniently excludes blatant sexism, personal attacks, and attempts to silence dissenting voices. Good for him. Good for him.

Is This Really Still News?

Honestly, at this point, it’s almost not news. It’s just… Trump being Trump. It’s like reporting that the sun rose in the east, or that water is wet. But the fact that this behavior is *still* happening, *still* being tolerated, and *still* influencing the political discourse is… well, it’s a problem. It normalizes sexism, encourages harassment, and undermines the credibility of the media. And it’s exhausting. Seriously, can we just get a break from the constant stream of outrage for, like, five minutes?

Snarky Takeaway

So, what’s the takeaway here? Donald Trump is still mad online, particularly at women in the media. Shocker. This isn’t new, it’s not surprising, and it’s probably not going to change anytime soon. All we can do is keep calling it out, keep holding him accountable, and maybe, just maybe, hope that one day he’ll finally learn to log off. Or, you know, maybe not. At this point, I’m just bracing myself for the next tweetstorm. Pass the coffee. And maybe a stiff drink.
