Sunday night into Monday morning, the president of the United States conducted an all-night social media binge that would alarm any reasonable observer, whether or not he was the president, and which cemented a growing sense of dread about Trump’s mental stability.
It began at 9:03 p.m. with a savage, 334-word screed against Pope Leo XIV, attacking the first American-born pontiff as “WEAK” and “terrible for Foreign Policy.”
It continued at 9:49 p.m. with an AI-generated image of Trump depicted as Jesus Christ, seemingly blessing a sick man.
A minute later, a picture of Trump Tower on the moon.
A political meme at 10:10.
News clips at 10:32 and 10:53.
Then, at 12:43 a.m., the president announced the United States would impose a naval blockade on the Strait of Hormuz — the very same blockade he’d condemned Iran for imposing — and which he directed via social media in the dead of night.
He kept going: 2:35 a.m., an article about Joe Biden.
2:36 a.m., the naval blockade again.
2:37 a.m., an article about Rep. Eric Swalwell.
2:37 a.m., the same Biden article, again.
2:38 a.m., a piece about his White House ballroom.
4:10 a.m., a news article about Iran.
