Fox and Friends Showdown

Trump called into Fox and Friends to talk about the raid on the Trump Tower security office. "This was an illegal raid orchestrated by the weaponized legal system under Joe Biden," he declared. "They arrested my staff—good people, the best people. These are former military members who were only trying to expose how deep the corruption has penetrated our great nation."

He continued, "When I'm back in office, my first order of business will be to pardon all the patriotic freedom fighters and throw my opponents into prison." Trump then launched into a monologue about his unwavering support for the military, claiming he had given them their first pay increase in almost a decade during his presidency.

One of the hosts asked Trump about Marjorie Taylor Greene's recent comments regarding the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago. Greene had said, "The Biden DOJ and FBI were planning to assassinate President Trump and gave the green light." Her colleague, Paul Gosar, added that "Biden ordered the hit on Trump at Mar-a-Lago."

Trump responded with dramatic flair, "Biden's DOJ was authorized to shoot me! Joe Biden was locked & loaded, ready to take me out and put my family in danger."

Switching topics, the host mentioned that Trump was gaining ground with Black voters. Trump replied, "No President has done more for Black voters, with maybe the exception of Lincoln. But if I were President during Lincoln's time, I could have negotiated the country out of a civil war."

The host then asked Trump about his plans for his potential return to office. Trump said, "I'm going to close the borders and evict millions of illegals. Let the great purging and purification of America begin under a unified Reich."

The show took a call from a viewer named Maybelle, who said, "I stand with you, Mr. President. When you get back into office, please put gays back in the closet, women back in the kitchen and prayer back in our schools."

Trump responds, "We'll look into that Maybelle."

The host then announced, "We've got Doctor Annabelle Juliet MacGregor on the line, better known as Anni the Librarian."

Under his breath, Trump muttered, "Good, because I'm going to tear that bitch a new one."

Anni heard Trump's comment which reminder her of what Trump really thinks about women.

Anni thanked the host for letting her on the air and greeted Trump. "I'd like to correct you on a couple of points," she began. "First off, the military received higher salary increases under both the Obama and Biden administrations."

Trump demanded to know which fake news organization gave her that false information. Anni calmly replied, "It came from militarypay.defense.gov/Pay/Basic-Pay/AnnualPayRaise/."

Trump screamed, "That's a lie!"

Anni urged him and his followers to look it up. She continued, "In regards to the Mar-a-Lago raid, the law enforcement officers of the Department of Justice may use deadly force only when necessary—when the officer has a reasonable belief that the subject of such force poses an imminent danger of death or serious physical injury to the officer or to another person. That language in the warrant is standard and not out of the ordinary. By the way, you were not home when the raid occurred."
