Trump Takes Revenge on MAGA Stooge Who Tried to Kiss the Ring

Donald Trump is humiliating Representative Bob Good.
Donald Trump lobbed a hefty snub to far-right lawmaker Bob Good on Tuesday morning, declaring he's "BAD FOR VIRGINIA, AND BAD FOR THE USA." Trump went on to endorse Good's primary opponent, John McGuire, a former Navy SEAL turned Capitol insurrectionist.
Good has been down bad trying to curry favor with Trump, including traveling all the way to New York to kiss the ring outside Manhattan Criminal Court for Trump's hush-money trial. During that visit, Good admitted that he and other Republican lawmakers were trying to help Trump evade his gag order.
"That's why we went up there," Good said on Fox Business during his visit. "So that we could say the things that this corrupt judge is not allowing him to say."
Trump's vengeful dismissal of Good—who chairs the far-right and disturbingly powerful House Freedom Caucus—appear to stem from Good's early support of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis's short-lived campaign for president. According to unnamed sources who spoke with CNN in December, Good's endorsement of DeSantis came because he wanted a candidate who could be president for the next eight consecutive years—but Good still planned to support Trump if he became the nominee, calling him "the best president of my lifetime."
Bob, the best president of your lifetime hates your guts.

In Trump World, no act that is not to Trump's liking goes unpunished. This poor schmoe Good had to nerve to support DeSantis six months ago, so all his pathetic bowing at the courthouse couldnt save him.
Good wanted a President that could serve eight straight years so he endorsed DeSantis. This pissed off Trump because he knows he has to (and plans to) be President for the rest of his life to stay out of prison.
How could it happen in Germany? When Fascism came to America it was selling red hats, gold sneakers and cheap Bibles made in China!
Damn! And I thought I could hold a grudge!
