Friends Say Trump Keeps Laughing About The Suffering Of Capitol Riot Victims

A new report from The Daily Beast says that some of Donald Trump's closest allies have said that the former President always laughs whenever the suffering of the people trapped in the Capitol during the insurrection is brought up. The man is truly disturbed, and delighting in the suffering of others would normally be considered a sign of a deranged and dangerous mind, which is likely what we're dealing with regarding Trump. Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

According to a new report from the daily beast this week, Donald Trump has spent the last year laughing at the pain in suffering that his supporters cause during the capital riot, for the individuals who were trapped inside the capital, and we've all heard the stories, even from Republicans, one of them. And I, I wish I could remember the, but one of them in Kevin McCarthy's office grabs a replica sword off the wall, hides in the bathroom, on the toilet, holding the sword, cuz he was afraid for his life. And that was a Republican. We have also heard the terrifying stories from people like representative Alexandr, Caio, Cortez, and of course plenty others. We've seen the video footage of Democrats Republicans together moving furniture to barricade the doors, to keep these people out. And according to this report, those closest to Donald Trump say that when this suffering is brought up, he laughs he laughs and he M mocks them.

Let me read this. According to three P people with direct knowledge of the matter, the twice impeached former president has noticed the emotional accounts, particularly that from democratic Congress, home and Alexandria, Ocasio-Cortez some, he has found annoying others. However, have become targets of mockery and casual hilarity for him in several conversations with close allies over the 12 months, Trump has repeatedly made fun of the idea that certain legislators, police or journalists were traumatized by the violent events of that day. According to the sources, there are moments when the ex president has speculated that his critics are faking their trauma and anxiety for attention. Other times he's done poor wh impersonations of perceived enemy lawmakers crying about the riot.

Yeah. Big talk coming from a man who spent the last 14 months crying about the 2020 election and who again, will spend the rest of his life crying about the election. This is classic bully mentality. And of course delighting in the suffering of others like this that were caused by people who love you. Um, I would say in my personal opinion, my nonmedical personal opinion, that that's the, the sign of a deranged mind. And I do believe a lot of mental health professional would agree with me on that. There's a whole book, a DSM, uh, DSM five, where they could look up that personality trait and see what it, uh, says about somebody. And I believe it's about time to do that for good old Donny boy. But more importantly, again, this is the bully mentality. The man clearly is upset and unhappy with his own personal life.

He's upset and unhappy that he didn't win the election. He loved watching the capital riot unfold. Other reports this week said that the man not only sat there watching it on TV, but that he continuously rebound it so that he could watch it again and again and again, because he was loving every second of it. And I have no doubt that he was loving every second of everyone talking about what a horrifying experience it was up to and including probably Mike Pence, because after all we do know we had that gaggle of, uh, folks that were chanting. Hang Mike Pence. I bet Trump loved that. I bet that gave him a good old belly laugh, right?

Conservatives, please understand this is your God. This is the guy you chose. And he's laughing at you. He's not just laughing at the Democrat ATS. He's laughing at the police. So I'm sure the blue lives matter. Crowd has something to say about that. Right? Right. I can't wait for your statement. Denouncing Donald Trump's actions here laughing at capital police officers when they told their stories like what they had told to the January 6th committee several months ago in publicly televised hearings. I'm sure you've got something to say. Just, just waiting for that announcement from y'all. And of course all the Republican lawmakers, including those who are standing by Donald Trump, he's laughing at you. He's mocking you because this is what you get.

Reminder: Donald Trump was never rushed to safety when there was an attack on our Capitol just down the road.

[walliedingwell]

"Trump and his followers are deplorable and there is no redemption for them." Well said; and so true.

[judychandler]

I have always believed he has sadistic tendencies because he seems to get such pleasure from other people's pain. He only cares for himself.

[marvwatkins]

It's been claimed that Trump laughed hysterically and cheered wildly while watching the insurrection live on TV. I wouldn't put it past him.

[amorlpo]

Sad 😔 we have to say it over and over again for those who can't see the truth.

[youtubian]

The man who spent the last year crying about losing the election AND had the Whitehouse barricaded and fenced to avoid protesters.

[MG-otyr]

What goes around comes around, imagine the mockery and laughing as Trump is hauled off in tiny handcuffs!

[hansvandijk]

Gleefully watching the suffering of others is just a narcissist’s way of living: destroying everything and everyone.
Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱.

[rebeccahancock]

What is sad is that 40% of Americans are right there with him. I see and hear the American people laughing and making fun of those injured and killed.

[triggermike]

It's hard to have empathy for others when you only care about yourself!

[indicible]

Let's not forget the time he hid in a bunker because there were protesters not too far from the White House.

[donaldnorlie]

Poor Trump, he had to stop pulling wings off of flies to laugh at the pain he caused America..

[Shari]

My wish for Trump is that he experiences the same happiness and complete joy he has subjected his most ardent opposers to.

[AdamBladeTaylor]

He mocks them, yet we all saw Bunker Boy wet himself and go hide in his bunker just because there was some loud noise a few blocks away from the fully secured building he was in.

[georgeraymond]

“deplorable and disgusting human beings”
Well said Farron

[joegillian]

We shouldn't worry about redeeming any of them; we should instead focus on rooting out and eliminating the elements which led to their radicalization in the first place.

[johnpeek]

How about life in prison w/o any chance of early release. He's a traitor and should be treated as such. What a sicko.

[davethenerd]

Merrick Garland, your country needs you. Charges, trial, jail. When?

[tomjay]

The former President is consistent, if anything. Expecting him to show empathy for people in distress is like expecting a TV preacher to explain without giggling what Jesus meant in the Sermon on the Mount.

[rickbaker]

When Dick Cheney is the "eye of reason", it's a fucked-up world.
