Trump Has Weird Meltdown Over Microphone Issues at Rally

· Rolling Stone

Donald Trump‘s 2024 presidential campaign is getting more fascistic as Election Day nears with the polls practically deadlocked, with the former president calling for networks to lose their broadcasting licenses, threatening to criminally prosecute his political enemies, and fantasizing about Liz Cheney having rifles “trained” on her “face.”

It’s also getting weirder.

The former president was rallying in Milwaukee on Friday night, and amid his usual fear-mongering over crime and immigration, he went on a weird, prolonged rant about the venue’s microphone — which apparently wasn’t functioning properly.

“You gotta be kidding,” Trump said. “Do you want to see me knock the hell out of people backstage?”

“I get so angry, I’m up here seething, seething,” he continued. “I’m working my ass off with this stupid mic.”

Trump complained about the mic for nearly four full minutes, bashing the “stupid people” responsible, griping about how worn out his throat is, and complaining that it was set up too low. He also threatened to stiff the contractors, something he has a history of doing.

“I think the mic stinks,” he said. “Then we don’t pay the contractor. I say don’t pay the contractor. Then they write a story and say Trump doesn’t pay his bills, he’s a bad guy.”

At one point, Trump bizarrely moved his head up and down from the empty mic stand on his podium, presumably to demonstrate how low he needed to bend over to get the mic to pick up his voice. The act resembled something else, though. “BLOWING IT: TRUMP SIMULATES ORAL SEX ON STAGE!” read a front-page headline from Drudge.

Trump proceeded to slap the mic stand away, grimace, and continue complaining about having to bend over. “Everybody says is there something wrong with his back? What the hell is wrong with his back,” he said. “They’re saying he’s cognitively impaired and physically impaired.”

No kidding.
