In a Christmas message to his followers Monday, former President Donald Trump said he hopes supporters of "Electric Car Lunacy" would "ROT IN HELL."

Trump's Monday afternoon Truth Social post continued a theme he had been developing with several other posts since Christmas Eve, attacking Justice Department Special Counsel Jack Smith, who is prosecuting two criminal cases against him.

The frontrunner of the 2024 presidential race for the Republican Party nomination added a missive against "THUGS," which he said were more "evil" and "sick" than all world leaders. In the grammatically confusing post, Trump also appeared to attack Israel, which Trump lumped in with Iran, as well as both Russia and Ukraine.

The man is clinically senile. Why is he not in a home where he can paint pretty pictures of butterflies?

Dude that’s 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Big white house, can’t miss it.

Although he could just hang out on W’s ranch and spend the rest of his days water coloring there with him. And ol’ Georgie Boy will finally get to be the smartest person in the room.

Can we just set up a fake White House with a cell phone that tweets to dead air and tell him he won?

They basically did this with Salazar, the Portugese dictator.

He was officially replaced while in a coma. He came out of it and lived for almost 2 years more. No one ever told him he was no longer in power.
